Preliminary Review and Match prediction for Lille vs Lens

Two clubs separated by just one point and two places in the French top standings table will square off.

The hosts are enjoying a good domestic run at the moment. They are unbeaten in Ligue 1 in their last 8 fixtures.

Les Dogues sit seventh in the French top division standings with 48 points from 31 fixtures. With 7 matches left in the league, Jocelyn Gourvennec’s side is still battling for next season’s European spot with seven games left in the league.

In addition, Lille failed to beat Angers in their last league game, playing out a draw (1:1).

On the other hand, Lens returned to winning ways last weekend as they beat Nice 3-0 at home.

Although their latest victory, Franck Haise’s side are having an unstable campaign, to say the least. The fact that Lens won 13, drew 8, and lost 10 shows how inconsistent they are.

Lens, as their opponent, are also fighting for a European spot. So this match is important for both sides.
