Lille and Bastia have played out a goalless draw at Stade Metropole in Ligue 1.

It was a largely uneventful game that left both teams sitting in mid-table.

The first proper chance of the game fell to Lille only in the 27th minute when Dimitri Payet's free kick came off the Bastia post.

Payet went close again in the first half when he was nicely set up by Marvin Martin, but he could only fire wide.

The home side continued to dominate proceedings in the second half, as Nolan Roux headed Payet's free kick over the crossbar, before Aurelien Chedjou shot wide.

Roux had another chance to break the deadlock just after the hour mark, but he failed to keep his shot from 20 yards on target.

Chedjou could have won the match for Lille in injury time with a powerful header if only Landry Bonnefoi had not been able to keep it out.
