Lille vs Feyenoord prediction, odds & betting tips 29/01/2025

Lille will take on Feyenoord on Wednesday, 29 January in the Champions League with both clubs eyeing a spot in the top eight.

The two sides are separated by just one place in the league standings as things stand and are both only outside of the top eight on goal difference.

Therefore, the victor on Wednesday night will have a brilliant chance of progressing straight through to the Round of 16 which makes this one of the biggest ties of the week.

As part of this week's round of Champions League betting tips, here is our Lille vs Feyenoord prediction.

Lille vs Feyenoord prediction: The hosts to sneak the win

Key Stats

• Lille are unbeaten in their last nine matches at home in all competitions.
• Feyenoord have won just one of their last three away matches.
• Over 2.5 goals have been scored in each of Lille's last three matches.

Correct score prediction: Lille 2-1 Feyenoord

This should be an exciting match between two teams with nothing to lose and everything to gain but home advantage could prove to be the key. Lille have already beaten some big teams at home this season, including Real Madrid, and the confidence from that win should get them over the line on Wednesday.

• HOME: 1/1 (2.00) – 50%
• DRAW: 13/5 (3.60) – 27.8%
• AWAY: 5/2 (3.50) – 28.6%

This is the first time that Lille and Feyenoord have ever played each other which adds an extra layer of the unknown to the fixture.

Lille preview: Looking to put their domestic form behind them

Given how poorly Lille have been performing in France lately, they will perhaps see these next few months as their final chance to perform in the Champions League for at least a year. They have won just one of their last five league matches which isn't ideal preparation for a game of this magnitude but they should benefit from the shackles being off.

Predicted lineup: Chevalier (GK), Meunier, Diakite, Ribeiro, Ismaily, Gomes, Andre, Bakker, Haraldsson, Cabella, David

Player to watch: Jonathan David

Jonathan David has been linked with a big move to the Premier League this month but it looks like Lille will keep hold of their star forward until the summer at least. The Canadian has excelled in the Champions League so far this season, scoring seven goals in eleven appearances, including the qualifiers, and will be the man Feyenoord are most fearful of on Wednesday night.
