Slavia Prague vs Lille Prediction and Betting Tips | August 28th 2024

Slavia Prague will entertain Lille at Eden Arena in the second leg of the UEFA Champions League playoffs on Wednesday. The visitors recorded a 2-0 win in the first leg thanks to second-half goals from Jonathan David and Edon Zhegrova.

The hosts saw their six-game winning streak end in the first half and also failed to score for just the second time this season in that loss. They have enjoyed a week's rest for this match and will look to make the most of it by overturning a two-goal deficit.

The visitors have enjoyed an unbeaten start to their season and extended their winning streak to three games on Saturday with a 2-0 home win over Angers in Ligue 1. Thomas Meunier scored in the first half while substitutes Rémy Cabella and Mohamed Bayo combined late in the second half to double their lead.
