⚽ Naom Kamara will be unavailable for the upcoming match against Lille as he has been called up to the French youth team, for which he has already played one match against the USA national team.
❌ The participation of Georgian forward Khvicha Kvaratskhelia is doubtful due to a muscle injury. He sustained the injury during the sixth round match against Auxerre, which also forced him to miss the Champions League clash with Barcelona.
❌ Portuguese midfielder João Neves remains sidelined and is unlikely to aid his team. He picked up an injury during the Champions League opener against Atalanta, leading him to miss three subsequent matches.
🟨 Referee and Yellow Cards

Although Lille have failed to score in their last two outings, their average goal tally in Ligue 1 remains impressive at 2.2 goals per game, while Paris Saint-Germain average 2. In their last three head-to-head encounters, they've scored 4 or more goals collectively. Considering these stats, we recommend betting on over 2.5 total goals.
🚩 Corner Kick Prediction
Both teams boast high corner kick statistics, playing aggressively and frequently utilizing the wings, leading to numerous set pieces. In the current season, Lille average 6.3 corners per match, the same as PSG (6.3). We suggest betting on over 8.5 total corners.
Editorial Prediction
After their Champions League triumph over Barcelona, PSG are likely to be riding high on confidence. Luis Enrique's side hardly needed any extra praise, but after delivering a blow to the Catalans, even the most indifferent observers have been quick to commend the Parisians. Given Lille's recent setbacks in the league, we anticipate a PSG victory with a scoreline of 3-1. Considering the head-to-head statistics and the teams' attacking prowess, we suggest betting on both teams to score.
