Lille vs PSG head-to-head record
PSG have won just two out of their last five meetings against Lille, tasting defeat against Les Dogues in the Super Cup final back in August.
Lille's march to the Ligue 1 title last season also included a 1-0 win at the Parc des Princes through a Jonathan David strike, although they blew a huge opportunity to register back-to-back wins in the French capital in October.
David edged the reigning champions ahead against Pochettino's men, but a late rally from PSG - through goals from Marquinhos and Angel Di Maria - turned the game on its head in the last 15 minutes.
Lille vs PSG score prediction
With a crunch Champions League knockout tie with Real Madrid looming on the horizon, PSG must correct their alarming domestic form.
Although they boast a near-unassailable lead at the top of Ligue 1, it is difficult to defend Pochettino after his expensively assembled squad bowed out of the Coupe de France on home soil.
Lille will provide a stiff test despite their turbulent form this campaign, and it could be a game where PSG's lack of cohesion is exposed once again.
Prediction: Lille 1-1 PSG
