Lens vs Strasbourg Predictions

• Lens are unbeaten across their last four matches.
• The hosts have kept three consecutive clean sheets and boast the best home record in Ligue 1.
• Strasbourg have failed to win 12 of their 14 away league games this season.

Lens continue to impress

The hosts have been able to capitalise on Marseille’s shaky form and they now occupy second in the Ligue table on goal difference. But after posting three consecutive victories, they’ll be eager to make it four when they take to home soil against Strasbourg. Lens boast the best home record in the league having won 12 of their 14 such fixtures, losing just once, and they’ll fancy their chances here. However, matches at the Stade Bollaert-Delelis have often been close affairs with ten of their 14 producing fewer than four goals.

The visitors have had an extremely tough time on the road this season and have rarely had anything to celebrate. They have failed to win 12 of their 14 matches on their travels and a trip to the best home side in the league will be the last thing they need. They’re one of just two sides yet to keep a clean sheet away from home and that looks set to be extended here.

Hosts to edge close encounter

Lens are no value to back outright. But we think Strasbourg will simply come here hoping to frustrate Lens and potentially hope to nick a goal on the break but they would be happy with a draw. As such, we like the look of a Lens win but under 3.5 goals in total.
