Team News
- Injured at the weekend, Steven Mouyokolo and Yassin Mikari will not be part of the squad against Lille.
- There is better news though, in that Sebastien Roudet and Sebastien Corchia will return to the squad and could start.
- Yoan Collas has been called up as cover for Pierrick Cros in goal.
- It seems that Modibo Maiga has recovered from malaria after tests on Tuesday morning, he won’t make the team though.
- Brazilian Carlao will miss up to four weeks with a hamstring injury.
- Up front, Rudi Garcia has to choose between Dimitri Payet or Joe Cole. After Cole started against Lorient, it could be Payet who gets the nod on Wednesday.
- Injured during the warm-up against Lorient midfielder Florent Balmont is not available for the Sochaux game. Pape Souare will take his place in the squad.
- Marko Basa and Tulio de Melo are still unavailable due to injury.
Prediction
- Called off at the last minute at the start of February, this game has become of serious importance to both sides but for very different reasons.
- The home side currently find themselves at the bottom of Ligue 1. On a positive note they are only two points from safety, though in reality they haven’t won a league game in the last ten attempts. Not the sort of form you want before facing the champions.
- Lille currently occupy the last Champions League place, with a slender three point gap separating Les Dogues from the closing pack every win at this stage of the season is critical and Rudi Garcia will definitely see it as a must win as they travel to face the wounded Les Lionceaux.

See all 8 commentsGreat win for Lille. Surprising that Lucas Digne started at left-back, seems that he did pretty well.
4-0 hammering
Lille will be confident going into this match. It's one they should win 2-0
sochaux are the home-draw kings, something they'd definitely take at KO!
the home team dont score enough goals, lille will create many chances
sochaux wont be happy that hazard is back!!
cole ahead of Payet
Must win for Lille to cement 3rd place. Big win needed and most likelyy to happen.
