Lens vs Lorient Predictions

• Both teams have scored in four of the last six meetings between these two clubs
• Both teams have scored in each of Lens’ and four of Lorient’s last six matches
• Lens have won their last two encounters with Lorient

Lens to end Lorient’s unbeaten run

Lens played out a 1-1 draw with Lyon last time out and remain 5th in the Ligue 1 table as a result. Lorient have been picking up points on a regular basis, including a 1-0 win over Brest last weekend, and now sit 3pts above the drop zone.

When Lorient played host to Lens back in September, the pair produced a 5-goal thriller which the visitors won 3-2. Lens have now won the last two meetings between these two clubs and both teams have scored in four of their last six encounters.

Lens have outplayed Lorient in all departments this season but they will still be expecting a tricky 90-minutes on Sunday. The hosts have won two, drawn three and lost one of their last six matches and Lorient have also won two, drawn three and lost one of their last six outings in all competitions. We’re not expecting to see any clean sheets this weekend either, as both teams have scored in all of Lens’ last six matches, as well as in four of Lorient’s last six fixtures.

We’re confident that both teams will score on Sunday and have backed Lens to claim a narrow 2-1 win. Both teams are playing to a very similar standard right now but Lens have the home advantage and carry more of a goal threat which is why we believe the hosts will pinch a win.
