Lens vs Nantes Predictions

• Lens have won 16 of last 17 home games
• FC Nantes have lost 5 of last seven away
• Lens have scored at least two in last seven home games

High flying Lens looking to apply pressure PSG

RC Lens, currently in second place, host relegation-threatened FC Nantes this Friday evening in Ligue 1. Lens will look to apply pressure to Paris Saint-Germain, who they are currently six points behind, and they are expected to do so. Their home form has been very impressive, with 16 wins from their last 17, the only defeat coming against AS Monaco in February. Nantes, meanwhile, haven’t won an away game since the start of January and have lost five of their last seven.

Lens are expected to win this and should do so with relative ease. They scored twice away at Nantes earlier in the season and should manage at least two goals at home here. keeping their streak of scoring at least two match going, having done so in their last eight match.  This should be a comfortable victory, with Lens being strong in both defence and attack, and it would be no surprise if they were to score more and keep a clean sheet in the process. A 3–0 win could be on the cards and is worth considering for a correct score bet.
