Analysis and prediction for the match of the third qualifying round of the Champions League “Fenerbahce” – “Lille” (08/13/2024)
The 70th edition of Europe’s premier club competition is underway. Teams that did not qualify directly have the chance to qualify. Numerous Champions League third qualifying round return matches will be played on 13 August. One of them will feature Fenerbahce and Lille.
Lille won the first match 2-1. The “Dogs” got the win in the end. Edon Zhegrova scored in the 90+1 minute. He was lucky with the rebound. The “Yellow Canaries” played according to the score and tried to prepare the ground for a good result in the return match, but a missed goal ultimately ruined Jose Mourinho’s plans.

The experienced Portuguese coach took over Fenerbahce in the summer. Some changes have already begun to emerge since his appointment. Admittedly, not very good ones. In the previous round of the qualifying tournament, the yellow and dark blue had a difficult time with Lugano. They won the first leg 4:3 and the return leg 2:1.
Former Manchester United midfielder Fred was injured in the return match against Lugano. Mourinho plans to make up for the loss. According to media reports, he wants Ilkay Gundogan to move to Fenerbahce. Will there be too many stars to help the Portuguese?
In the summer, the Canaries made significant improvements to their squad. They acquired Moroccan striker Youssef En-Nesyri, loaned out former Newcastle winger Allan Saint-Maximin and signed ex-Everton striker Cenk Tosun as a free agent.
But even before that, Fenerbahce had enough top players. Only Edin Dzeko and Dusan Tadic deserve it. The Bosnian striker, by the way, scored four goals in the games against Lugano. Can the “yellow canaries” beat Lille? Certainly! Mourinho has not done anything like that in European competition. The international arena is his element.

Lille also experienced a coaching change in the summer. It was headed by Bruno Genesio. The changes also affected the composition. The Dogs have sold talented defender Leni Yoro to Manchester United. In addition, Yusuf Yazici left the team as a free agent and in a short time made a lot of noise for CSKA in the RPL.
The Dogs have brought in some quality new signings to replace the players who left, but it seems they have lost more than they have gained. Under the leadership of Paulo Fonseca, the team developed enormously. He showed some beautiful combination football and created plenty of chances.
In the new season, Lille have not yet found their game and have not gained stability. They approach the upcoming meeting as a great mystery. The home walls helped the great Danes to get the victory at the end of the first match, but in the return match Fenerbahce will have the advantage thanks to the support of the fans.
In the new season, Lille has only played one competitive match so far. The “Yellow Canaries” are approaching the game in a much better tone. They have already played four matches, three of which they won. You can bet on Fenerbahce to win at the bookmakers with a rate of 1.90.
Jose Mourinho has won a large number of European Cups. He became the first specialist to win all three international club tournaments. It will be completely different for the Portuguese if the “yellow canaries” fail to beat a “Lille” at home.
