Lille vs Monaco: Monaco's eighth straight win

Lille will play host to Monaco in round 36 of Ligue 1. Who will be the stronger of the two sides? Check the team conditions and choose several betting options.

Lille has quite predictably failed after the league title last season. They have not performed well this season, as, after 35 rounds, they are only tenth in the table with 51 points. They are not likely to qualify for any European competitions. Lille seems to have come to terms with the fact that they have not been winning, drawing twice and losing three times in six games.

Monaco is looking excellent this campaign and is aiming for the Champions League. They are currently in fourth place in the standings, with 62 points. They can qualify for any of the three European competitions or even drop out of the top five. But with the kind of results that Monaco is showing, they have every chance of achieving the highest goals, as they have seven wins in their last seven matches.

In this encounter, we suggest betting on Monaco. They've been stamping out win after win, and they're highly motivated, as any slip-up could be very costly for them. Lille doesn't look good, and they have no tournament motivation. We don't make anything up and take a clean win for the visitors. Prediction: Monaco will win.
