Nantes vs Lille: Prediction and odds on the Match on 19 October 2025
Nantes welcome Lille to the Beaujoire with hopes of overturning the draw spree that has entangled them in their last three league games. Luis Castro’s side is not having the best start to their Championship campaign, having collected just six points from a total of seven games played.
Lille, on the other hand, is a few points ahead of Nantes, but they also do not appear stronger and better than their opponents in terms of form. The last time the teams met on this ground, Nantes narrowly escaped with a 1-0 win. Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Seven games into the new season, Nantes are still searching for that much-needed spark under Luis Castro. Their struggles continue, with a four-game winless run in Ligue 1. It’s a frustrating situation for the club, who now find themselves in a tight mid-table battle, where only two points separate them from 11th-placed Brest.
Their last three games ended in draws, with a winless run in their last four league games. The team held Brest to a goalless draw in their last league game, and another draw might be in the books for this Sunday. They have an overall league statistics of a win, with three draws and three losses from the 7 games played.

After a flying start to the season, Lille’s momentum has started to stall in recent weeks. Bruno Genesio’s men were electric early on, going unbeaten in their first four Ligue 1 matches and scoring 13 goals in that run. But since then, things have taken a dip. They come into this weekend’s clash on a three-game winless run in the league, comprising of two losses and a draw. The team is now struggling to get back their attacking rhythm.
Their last league game was against PSG, and it was Ethan Mbappe who came on in the second half to salvage a point for Lille through a goal in the 86th minute. The game ended in a 1-1 draw. The team is now 7 placed, with 11 points from a total of 7 games played.
