3424
On Friday night, high-flying Lens host Toulouse at the Stade Bollaert-Delelis, as the home team looks to maintain their positive momentum in Ligue One.
Lens
The home side has made an excellent start to the Ligue One campaign and currently sits in second place in the French top-flight table, five points adrift of leaders PSG.
Franck Haise’s team has won three of their last four league games, including winning 1-0 at Marseille last time out. The result against OM means that Lens' last seven league matches have all produced under 2.5 goals.
Their solid defensive record has played a big part in the recent good results, as Lens has kept clean sheets in five of their last six league games.
Lens has become a formidable opponent on home soil, as they are unbeaten in 11 home matches in Ligue One, having recorded nine wins in the process. Haise’s team has kept three straight clean sheets on home soil in the French top-flight.
Toulouse
The visitors have enjoyed an inconsistent season, picking up 16 points from their opening 12 matches in Ligue One. However, a 2-2 draw against Strasbourg last time out in the league means that Philippe Montanier's team is unbeaten in four matches in the French top flight.
Toulouse’s recent league outings have been high-scoring, with over 2.5 goals scored in four of their last five matches in Ligue One. Both teams have also scored in their previous five league outings.
The visitors have a poor recent away record, as they are winless in four league matches on their travels, including suffering three defeats in the run. Toulouse has also conceded at least two goals in all three recent losses.
What does Forebet predict?
Forebet predicts that Lens will record another victory in a low-scoring encounter to continue their excellent start to their Ligue One campaign.
