Betting on Racing Club de Lens
The Lens’ season has been simply extraordinary, as it’s not only fighting to finish in second place in the standings, but it also has a great opportunity to qualify for the Champions League for the first time in 20 years.
Two consecutive wins without conceding goals have settled Lens in third place in the standings, now maintaining an eight-point lead over its closest pursuer, Monaco, whom this team defeated 3-0 two matchdays ago.
Les Sang et Or will try to achieve a third consecutive victory here and the seventh in its last eight appearances, where its defense has been the main protagonist, keeping its goal unbeaten on five occasions. Therefore, Lens will surely have enough confidence to do so, considering that it is the best home team in Ligue 1, obtaining 43 points out of 48 possible.
Possible Lineup (3-4-2-1): Brice Samba; Jonathan Gradit, Kevin Danso, Facundo Medina; Przemyslaw Frankowski, Junior Onana, Seko Fofana, Massadio Haidara; Florian Sotoca, Adrien Thomasson; Lois Openda
Betting on Olympique de Marseille
The Marseille team has had an outstanding campaign, and it is still in the race for the title, being only five points behind PSG. However, this team knows that a victory here is vital to keep its hopes of being crowned Ligue 1 champions alive.
Les Phocéens are arriving in great form, having won their last three matches and avoiding defeats in their last eight league games. The most recent victory was against Auxerre, in a close match that ended with a 2-1 scoreline.
Although the Stade Bollaert-Delelis is a tough place to visit, if there is any team that can dream of challenging it and taking all three points, it is Marseille. In fact, it is the best team in the division as visitors, having lost only one of the 16 away games it has played so far. Additionally, Marseille is coming here on an 11-match unbeaten run away from home in the league.
Possible Lineup (3-4-2-1): Pau Lopez; Leonardo Balerdi, Samuel Gigot, Sead Kolosinac; Jonathan Clauss, Valentin Rongier, Jordan Veretout, Issa Kaboré; Ruslan Malinovskyi, Cengiz Ünder; Alexis Sanchez.
JefeBet Prediction
Even though Marseille is a force to be reckoned with on the road, it’ll be facing a Lens team that’s nearly perfect when playing in front of its home crowd. Besides, Lens has also conceded the fewest goals at home in the league, so Marseille won’t have an easy time.
Furthermore, Marseille has only kept a clean sheet in one of its last seven league matches, something that a team with such effective attacking prowess like Lens will surely take advantage of. Therefore, we expect this to be a closely contested and exciting match from start to finish, but one in which the home team will ultimately prevail and come away with the victory.
Prediction: Lens Moneyline (LEN 1-0 MAR)
