Lens to continue stellar run against Lyon

RC Lens vs Lyon - 02/10/2022

3059

On Sunday Night, Lens hosts Lyon at the Stade Bollaert-Delelis, as the home team looks to continue their recent good campaign in Ligue 1.

Lens

The home team currently sit in fourth place in the Ligue 1 table, as they are unbeaten in their eight league matches this season. In fact, Lens are unbeaten in 16 Ligue 1 games dating back to last season. Last time out, Franck Haise’s team drew 0-0 with Nantes.

The game followed a familiar low-scoring trend for Lens of late in the French top-flight, as their last three league games have all produced under 2.5 goals.

Lens has a formidable recent home record in Ligue 1, as they are unbeaten on home soil in nine matches, having recorded seven wins and two draws.

Their potent attacking threat has played a key role in the stellar recent home form in Ligue 1, as they have scored at least two goals in eight of their last nine home matches in the French top-flight.

Lyon

OL have already enjoyed a rollercoaster of a campaign in the French top-flight. After a solid start to their Ligue 1 campaign, Peter Bosz’s team heads into this clash on the back of three straight defeats against Lorient, Monaco and PSG.

The 1-0 home defeat against PSG ended a run of high-scoring games, as their previous four league matches had all produced over 2.5 goals.

Lyon have not been great travellers of late, winning just two of their previous nine away matches in Ligue 1. That run includes defeat in three of their last five league games in the French top-flight.

A lack of clean sheets has played a big part in their poor recent away form, as Lyon has kept just one clean sheet in their previous eight league matches on their travels.
