Monaco vs Lens Predictions

• Monaco have made a strong start with three wins and a draw
• This fixture has produced over 2.5 goals in four of their last five meetings
• Four of Lens’ last five matches have gone over 2.5 goals

Monaco can come out on top in another thriller

Monaco have enjoyed an excellent start to the campaign, picking up three wins and a draw so far. Their victory over PSG was particularly impressive and they should be confident of adding another three points against Lens.

This has typically been an entertaining fixture with goals at both ends, and Lens’ recent results suggest another high-scoring encounter could be on the cards. Four of their last five matches have featured at least three goals, so there is every reason to expect another open contest here.

Monaco have shown plenty of attacking quality during their strong start to the season, and home advantage should give them the edge. However, Lens are capable of causing problems themselves, and their recent matches suggest they are unlikely to simply sit back and try to frustrate the hosts.

That should lead to opportunities at both ends, but Monaco look better equipped to take advantage. A Monaco win and over 2.5 goals is the standout selection, with a 3-1 home victory fancied in the correct-score market.
