Why Lille are match favourites
Bookmakers regard the visitors as favourites: a Lille win is priced at 1.70, an Angers success is 5.00 and the draw is available at 3.80.

• Angers are struggling to pick up points: the hosts scored no more than their opponents in 9 of their last 10 Ligue 1 games.
Form and Line-up Angers
Angers start the season with a new head coach, Stephane Gilli. In their last friendly on 15 August, the team beat Paris FC 3:2 — the goals were scored by Amine El Ouazzani, Bane Diatta and Ousmane Camara. In official Ligue 1 games, however, the team were more restrained in attack: in their last 10 matches in the competition, Angers had no more than 5 shots on target.
Key numbers:
- No more than 10 corners were recorded in 9 of the last 10 Ligue 1 home matches involving Angers.
- Angers' opponents were caught offside at most once in 9 of their last 10 Ligue 1 home games.
- In 8 of their last 10 away matches in Ligue 1, Angers took at most 4 corners.

Absentees: Haris Belkebla — injury.
Form and Line-up Lille
Lille also approach the start of the league campaign with a new coach, Davide Ancelotti. In a friendly against Everton on 15 August, the team drew 1:1, with Hakon Arnar Haraldsson's goal in added time allowing them to avoid defeat. Away from home in Ligue 1, Lille play carefully: in their last 10 away matches in the competition, their players committed at most 12 fouls.
