Wolfsburg vs Lille
Champions League
Date: Wednesday, 8 December 2021
Kick-off at 20:00 UK/ 21:00 CET
Venue: Volkswagen Arena.

French champions Lille seem to be finding form in the Champions League right when it is most needed. They are currently at the top of the table, and need to stay there just for this final match-day to make it to the Round of 16 as group champions.

And their chances look really good, as they are pitted against the dead-last placed Wolfsburg, who are going through dreadful form at the moment.

By the looks of things, expect Lille to have the upper hand this Wednesday at the Volkswagen Arena.
