Tips:
Like OM, Lille also launched a major project. Redeemed by billionaire Gérard Lopez, the club did not skimp on the means by enlisting Marcelo Bielsa to pilot it. Players also, with a South American accent. Proud of his three Brazilian recruits (Mendez, Araujo, Maia), come to complete an already rich mercato (Malcuit, Xeka ...), the LOSC approaches with enormous ambitions this new season. He will already have the opportunity to test himself against Nantes. Surprising 7th last season, the Canaries have translated their desire to cross a course by welcoming Claudio Ranieri. Very calm on the transfer market, the club bet on stability. Accustomed to making block far from their bases, will the Nantais resist this LOSC 2.0?Nantes has not scored a goal in his last three friendly games for two defeats and one draw.
Lille dominated the Canaris twice on his soil last year (1-0 Coupe de France, 3-0 L1).
The Lille team torpedo Rennes (4-2) at the Pierre Mauroy stadium in their last match, confirming their new offensive potential.
A final game played in front of 28,000 fans, enthusiastic about seeing both Bielsa and the new recruits. In other words, Pierre Mauroy will be sold out for the recovery.The enthusiasm is enormous around this LOSC version 2017/2018. Now armed to find the podium, the Dogues, guided by the charismatic Marcelo Bielsa, should quickly make the Pierre Mauroy stadium a fortress. A little too fragile far from its bases, Nantes will not resist this new LOSC.
