LOSC Lille and Klaksvikar Itrottarfelag go head-to-head at the Stade Pierre Mauroy in Group A of the UEFA Europa Conference League on Thursday (December 14).
While Magne Hoseth’s men have nothing to play for and will look to bow out of the tournament with their heads high, the French outfit need all three points to secure top spot in the group.
Lille were denied a fourth win on the bounce on Sunday when they were held to a goalless draw by Clermont Foot in Ligue 1. However, Paulo Fonseca’s side have gone 13 games without defeat across competitions since a 2-1 loss to Stade Reims on September 26.
Trending
Lille now turn their attention to the Conference League, where they have enjoyed an unbeaten campaign, claiming 11 points from five games to sit first in Group A with a one-point lead over second-placed Slovan Bratislava.
Meanwhile, Klaksvikar's dreams of reaching the Conference League knockouts came to an end last time out when they fell to a 2-1 loss to Slovan Bratislava.
Hoseth’s men have lost their last three games across competitions since a 3-0 win over Olimpija Ljubljana on October 26. Klaksvikar have picked up one win and one draw in five Conference League games to collect four points and sit third in Group A, just one point above rock-bottom Olimpija.
