The Green-Blacks could take the lead in Serie A on Friday. In case of a win over Udinese, Sassuolo will overtake Milan by one point and will be in first place at least until Sunday. The task is quite real, given the recent results of Sasusolo. Let us remind you that in the last round the green-blacks slammed Napoli away. So far, Sassuolo has no defeats at all in the current season and everything goes to the point that zero in the losing column will remain after the 7th round.
Lille is one of the strongest teams in France today. “Dogs” are in 2nd position in the standings. After 9 rounds 19 points were scored. Galtier wards remain the only club in the local championship who still have not a single defeat (5 wins and 4 draws). In the Europa League, the team beat Prague Slavia in the 1st round away (1:4) and a week later they got a draw with Celtic was recorded (2:2) at home. The general statistics of Lille look like this in the second most important football tournament in Europe: 1 victory, 7 draws and 4 losses. As you can see, results are very mediocre. However, do not forget that when the “dogs” last played in the LE (until this year), they represented a completely different team, which was much weaker. In the 09/10 season Lille played in the Europa League against a Serie A representative, namely against Genoa. In both meetings the French won with a score 3:0 and 2:3.
