Lorient vs Lens Prediction & Betting Tips - Ligue 1

 by Sridhar | in Ligue 1 Predictions

Mid-table Lorient could be gearing up to upset second-placed Lens on Sunday. This Ligue 1 match looks a tricky one for the away team but is one Lens need to win. Lorient are eight points behind the European qualification spots with three rounds to go. As such, it would need a miracle for them to go up into those places. Yet, there won't be any shortage of determination for the hosts in this match. They are coming off a 1-1 draw against Montpellier that halted a two-game winning run. Even that draw was due to a late stoppage-time goal, so the confidence in the home camp would be high. They are likely to enjoy playing at home, having avoided defeat in seven of their last nine home league matches. Five of those matches saw them score at least twice and they would be keen to improve that trend.

Lens start this round six points behind leaders PSG, but the title remains out of reach unless the leaders collapse spectacularly. It is the battle for second-place finish that should be of more interest for Lens. The visitors are guaranteed of a top-three finish but second place would guarantee them Champions League group stage while third would need to go through qualification. As such, the visitors would be keen to maintain their two-point advantage over third-placed Marseille. Having notched eight wins from their last nine league games, the confidence in the visiting camp should be very high. That included four straight wins as they look to follow up on a 5-2 win in the reverse fixture. Despite such high confidence, Lens will be wary of their away form. The visitors have failed to win seven of their last ten away league matches. Thankfully though, all three wins have come across their last four such trips.
