Will spring be European for Lille? Engaged in the group stage of the Europa League, the northern club will have to fight until the end to validate its place for the play-offs of the competition. Currently 20th in the ranking (out of 24 qualified) two matches from the end of this first round, he will want to get a result on the pitch of Celta Vigo, which precedes him by one place in the ranking, to stay in the right car.
To do this, we will have to get our heads back on track and show an ability to raise our level in big matches, which has been lacking in recent championship matches. In Ligue 1, the Mastiffs remain in fact on three defeats in a row against direct rivals, against Rennes (0-2), in Lyon (1-2), then last weekend against Paris Saint-Germain (3-0), clear winner thanks to a high class Ousmane Dembélé.
Kick-off for the Celta Vigo – Lille match is scheduled for 9 p.m. this Thursday, January 22. The meeting will be followed live on television on Canal +.
