Match Analysis
Lens travel to Lorient as strong favourites, sitting second in Ligue 1 and boasting a formidable away record. Lorient are resilient at home (only 1 home loss), but their defence is leaky (1.5 conceded per game). Lens are the league's second-best attack and have dominated this matchup in recent years. Expect Lorient to put up a fight but Lens' quality and attacking power should see them edge a relatively open contest.
