Lens-Lyon

Lens and Lyon are set for another intriguing clash with both teams displaying contrasting recent forms. Lens have been consistent, managing to secure critical points in their last few matches, including a solid performance against Brest and a commendable draw against Monaco. Their home record is particularly notable, emphasizing their fortress-like attitude at Stade Bollaert-Delelis.

Lyon, on the other hand, has had a roller-coaster ride in recent fixtures. They scored a thrilling win against Strasbourg but faced heavy defeats against formidable sides like Monaco and Rennes. Their inconsistency and defensive vulnerabilities have been a cause for concern, especially when facing an organized squad like Lens.

Historically, Lens have an edge in their recent head-to-head encounters with Lyon, having won three out of their last five matchups. This psychological advantage, coupled with their current form, could play a pivotal role in the outcome of the match.

Expect both teams to find the back of the net given their offensive capabilities but Lens appears more likely to edge out a victory. The match is likely to produce more than 2.5 goals considering the recent scoring trends of both teams.
