Monaco vs Lens Predictions

• Monaco have lost just one of their six home league matches this season.
• Lens have failed to find the net in three of their last four league away games.
• Lens have had just one draw in the league this term.

Lens are goal-shy on the road

Lens make the long trip to Monaco on Saturday and while they are third in the Ligue 1 table, it would not be a surprise if they suffered their fourth defeat of the season.

The fact the visitors have lost just one of their last seven matches would usually be the cause for optimism, but there has been a big difference in the results Lens have been posting on their travels compared to their form at the Stade Boillaert-Delelis.

Five wins from six games have come there, but they have scored just four goals in five away matches and the only one of their last four games on their travels that they managed to net was against bottom side Auxerre.

Monaco are in scoring groove at home

Their goal shyness on the road is a concern, especially as Marseille are the only team in Ligue 1 to have scored more goals on their own patch.

Sebastien Poconogli’s side should go on the front foot after suffering a 1-0 defeat to Paris in their last game at the Stade Louis II, and this is a good opportunity for them to get back in the groove, so a 2-0 home victory may appeal to correct-score punters.
