H2H: Lille v Celtic – Comparison.
Yusuf Yazici scored a hat-trick in Lille’s UEL game last week. He’s been the game’s final scorer in both of his goalscoring competitive matches this term. Meanwhile, Mohamed Elyounoussi has scored one goal precisely after the 75th minute in three of Celtic’s last five European outings. None of Lille’s last six UEL group stage home matches have witnessed both sides scoring in one half.
Lille Insights.
Lille’s 4-1 victory at Sparta Prague in their opening UEFA Europa League (UEL) group stage game, ended a winless run of ten consecutive matches in the competition (D6, L4 – qualifiers included). On the domestic front, Lille are currently enjoying their best start to a new league campaign since 1952/53 (W5, D3), and are yet to concede before HT. However, the hosts are winless in their opening group stage home fixture (D5, L2) across their last seven European campaigns (UEFA Champions League (UCL) / UEL), while failing to score before HT on five occasions. Lately, Lille have been very much in the habit of scoring first at home, doing so in the eight league home games that precede this match.
Celtic Insights.
After safely negotiating the qualification process without conceding a single goal (W2, D0), Celtic lost their opening UEL group stage game at home 3-1 vs AC Milan. Last weekend, they saw their winless run stretched to three competitive matches (D1, L2), and their failure to score before HT in each of their last five competitive outings is concerning. On the road, the visitors are unbeaten in their last 20 competitive road trips (W16, D4), with six of their last seven victories being accompanied by a clean sheet. However, Celtic are winless in their last four European away fixtures versus French opposition (D2, L2), though each of those games witnessed goals at both ends.
