Lens vs Nice

The Eaglets are on a three-game unbeaten streak in the French Football League and will enter this game fresh off of a victory over Lille thanks to a 34th-minute ...

Nice continues to show signs of progress, but Lens holds the edge as they have a much finer form, class, and discipline. Les Aiglons should also expect a more offensive game from the Lens, so Dante, Jean-Clair Todibo, Melvin Bard, and Jordan Lotomba should strive to make a defensive wall for Nice. They are also having a 50.5% ball possession rate, and are making 11.4 total shots and 4.0 corners per game, so they really need some serious upgrades in the offense. The team also pounces on the attack, making 14.1 total shots, 7.7 successful dribbles, and 5.8 corners as game averages. The team also logged 33 goals and 25 assists throughout the season. Franck Haise’s side will be without the services of Jimmy Cabot, Adam Buksa, and Wuilker Farinez, who are out for their injuries. In recent games, they have shown scrappiness and disorder, like their early Coupe de France exit versus Le Puy and poor run in club-friendly games versus Tottenham Hotspur, Atalanta, and Girona. Opendda, Sotova, and Claude-Maurice will be at the helm of Len’s attack. Lens continues to roll and is consistently playing at a high level. As a top-heavy team, the team excels when everyone plays at a balanced pace and level. Lens does not look to lose momentum, as they have a 12- game unbeaten streak across all contests. Nice is 10th on the standings with 28 points earned thus far.
