Arsenal Vs Lille Preview
On MD1, Arsenal beat Napoli 1-0 which means the Gunners have won their last 13 league phase games on the bounce. The Premier League champions have only lost two of their last 31 group stage/league phase games and have won 15 or their last 16 home games in the UCL.
With the above in mind, the omen doesn’t look good for Lille. They lost 3-2 to Real Betis on the seasonal opener but have responded by winning two of their three Ligue 1 games since. That included the 1-0 victory over Le Harve on Saturday.
Arsenal Vs Lille H2H Record
History will be made in north London as this will be the first ever meeting between Arsenal and Lille. With no direct H2H record to go on, it’s worth noting that Arsenal have won five and drawn two of their last seven home games in the UCL against Ligue 1 opponents.
As for Tuesday’s visitors, head coach Davide Ancelotti will be trying to end a rotten run of luck against English opponents. LOSC lost their last seven in a row to Premier League teams in Europe’s elite club competition. Their latest was against Liverpool in January 2025.
Arsenal Vs Lille Team News
Arsenal’s infirmary list is shortening with the quartet of Declan Rice, Max Dowman, Ezri Konsa and Kai Havertz all passed fit. In fact, it was only Dowman who didn’t feature in the Gunners 2-1 win over Leeds on Saturday. However, Christos Tzolis, William Saliba and Piero Hincapie are missing.
As for Lille, veteran forward and former Gunner Olivier Giroud is likely to start on the bench. Tiago Santos suffered an ACL injury on the weekend which means he won’t feature until 2027. Ethan Mbappe is also ruled out with an ankle problem but is suspended for the next two games anyhow after his straight red against Real Betis.
Arsenal Vs Lille Predicted Lineups
Arsenal potential starting lineup:
