We said: Lille 3-0 Montpellier

Even though Lille have a huge match here at the Mauroy on Wednesday, Genesio must ensure his players are focused on this very winnable fixture, which will be important in the race for the top four. Montpellier have failed to score in eight of their 11 away league matches this season - more than the last two seasons combined - and there is little to suggest they will change that here, following five straight defeats.
