On Friday night, Lens and Strasbourg clash at the Stade Bollaert-Delelis in Ligue One as the home team looks to continue their recent stellar league form.

Lens

Franck Haise’s team head into this clash on the back of a four-game unbeaten run in Ligue One, including a three-game winning streak in the French top flight. Last time out, Lens recorded a 1-0 win at Rennes.

The victory kept Lens in second place in the Ligue One table, ahead of third-place Marseille on goal difference. However, they still have work to do to confirm their Champions League spot for next season.

Lens’ home form has been excellent in Ligue One this season, as they have won 12 of their last 14 home games in the French top-flight.

The fact that they have scored at least two goals in five of their previous eight home games in Ligue One has been a contributing factor in the stellar home record.

Strasbourg

While Lens battles for a place in the Champions League, the visitors are in a fight to preserve their Ligue One status. Frederic Antonetti’s team is currently only out of the relegation zone courtesy of a superior goal difference to 17th place Auxerre.

A 4-3 defeat in Monaco last time out in the French top flight means that Strasbourg has won just once in their previous five league outings.

Their poor recent away form has been a big factor in Strasbourg’s potentially hazardous position in the French top-flight table.

The visitors have won just one of their previous nine away games in Ligue One, a run that includes failing to win in their last five league matches on their travels.

What does Forebet predict?

Forebet predicts that Lens will continue their recent good form by recording a victory in a high-scoring encounter to boost their top-two chances.
