Why Chelsea will beat Lille

The Blues have rolled. Chelsea’s lone loss in their last 5 happened versus Liverpool. Not only that, but it happened via penalty kicks in the English Carabao Cup Final. Save for the loss to Pool, the Blues have dominated with wins over Luton City in an English FA Cup, a 4-0 beating of Burnley, a 3-1 victory over Norwich, and a 1-0 win against Newcastle. The Blues are ready to make it to their second straight CL Quarterfinals.

Why Lille will beat Chelsea

Since the 0-2 loss to Chelsea, Lille has rolled. The Ligue 1 squad shows 2 wins and a draw in their last 3. The 1-0 victory over Lyon and the 4-0 win versus Clermont Foot impressed big time. Don’t worry about the 0-0 draw with Saint-Etienne. Lille had a reason to bounce. With the bounce out of the way, Lille should be at their best versus the Blues.

Lille vs Chelsea Betting Analysis

This happens on Lille’s pitch and that gives them an edge, but Chelsea is one of the top four soccer clubs on the planet. The Blues are as good as Manchester City, Liverpool, and Bayern Munich.

Teams like Chelsea don’t lose to squads like Lille. Although Lille will play well, Chelsea should win this.

Even though Thomas Tuchel’s squad doesn’t have to play aggressively, expect them to do just that. The best way to ensure a quarterfinals Champions League spot is to grab an early road goal and then coast to a 3 goals to 0 finish.

Tuchel’s squad will get the goal in the first half. Then, they will play defense, frustrate Lille, and cruise to victory. Don’t be surprised if the Blues win this by 2 goals to 0.
