Chelsea v Lille, I believe Chelsea is the favorite team and will certainly win on paper. But after looking at the next schedule I think Chelsea has quite a lot of pressure too, because in a short time after this match Chelsea must immediately focus on the final match in the EFL Cup against Liverpool. But even so I still believe Chelsea will still win in this first leg because this first leg will be held at Stamford Bridge, considering Lille also this season is not good enough Ligue 1. Just considering the result that might be a surprise, but I also realize from the quality it seems Chelsea is still the best.
On the other hand Lille is in a good shape not in League 1 but CL. they have recorded successive wins over Wolfsburg, Sevilla and Red Bull Salzburg which are not easy to beat up but they did it and made successful matches, that means that Lile is always dangerous team for the opponents, therefore, now Chelsea have a lot to do in order to win this very hard match.
Even if that's the case, their opponents are far superior now, especially now that Chelsea were the UCL champions last season, of course they have quite strong ambitions this season as well.
Personally, I really want to have high hopes but if you look at Lille's current performance, I really feel pessimistic for them.
But this is football, it's possible for them to make a surprise as Salzburg did against Bayern
I think Chelsea will win against Lille in their match this is because Lille is in poor form so far this season having played 25games with 36 points, and they occupy 11th position in their league while Chelsea is 3rd in their league having played 25matches also with 50 points. I see nothing stopping Chelsea from beating them in the first leg of the champions league encounter in Stamford Bridge.
Of course Chelsea's chances of winning the game are very big, as you said judging from Lille's form this season is very bad, Lille have dropped
too many points in Ligue 1. While Chelsea are playing quite well in the Premier League, although Chelsea is very difficult to compete with Man City
and Liverpool. Looks like Chelsea will win at Stamford Bridge, although the possibility of Chelsea will win by a small score. Because the previous
few matches Chelsea had never scored more than two goals. I don't know what's going on with Chelsea's front line, it looks like Chelsea is having
a hard time scoring goals. Actually, it doesn't matter to win with a small score, if they can win many matches.
