FRANCE: Ligue 1

Lille vs Angers Soccer Betting Tips – Ligue 1

Resumption of Ligue 1 this Wednesday, January 6! For this first day of the year 2021, all the meetings of the J18 will be played during the same evening, with a multiplex of 5 matches. It is also at this time that Lille will host the Angers SCO at the Pierre-Mauroy Stadium with a clear objective in mind: to do as well, or even better than in 2020, to secure its final place on the podium and, why not, compete for the title of champion of France until the end. With 36 points, LOSC is second on goal difference, behind an Olympique Lyonnais who has been walking on water for 3 months. Defending champion, Paris Saint-Germain is not far away with its 35 points, as is OM, which could rise to 34 points if it wins its 2 late games.

The second part of the season promises to be exciting, especially since usually, PSG have already crushed the championship at this stage of the competition. For its part, Angers is in the right car and could even switch in the middle of the teams fighting for a place in Europe in the event of an exploit in Lille on Wednesday. With 27 units, the SCO is tied with teams like Montpellier or Monaco, it remains to be seen whether they will be able to maintain this rate of results or if they will fall into line.
