Lille responded well to their first leg 2-0 loss to Chelsea, picking up seven points from nine available.
They were held to a 0-0 draw by relegation threatened Saint-Etienne on Friday night, however.
Chelsea responded to a tough week with a late 1-0 win over Newcastle on Sunday.
Despite pressure off the pitch, Tuchel is able to keep his players focussed on the task at hand. Which is a boost for the Blues.

Jonathan David remains the only player to have scored in any UEFA game hosted by Lille this season.
Whilst Chelsea star Kai Havertz has been on the scoresheet in each of his last three Premier League starts.
