Troyes are currently in 18th place in the Ligue 1 standings and have been in poor form so far this season. The home side slumped to a 2-1 defeat at the hands of Angers last week and will need to work hard to bounce back in this fixture.
Lille, on the other hand, are in fourth place in the league table at the moment and have been fairly impressive over the past year. Les Dogues edged Nantes to a 2-1 victory in their previous game and will look to take it up a notch this weekend.
