Lens – Nantes

Lens have not lost in four consecutive rounds. Will the streak continue in the game against Nantes?

In the 35th round match of the French championship, Lens will play Nantes on home soil. Lance are now in great form and continue to fight for a place in the European competitions for next season. The density of the teams is very high. Lance are in seventh position, but Nantes are only four points behind in tenth. And in turn, Lance itself is only three points behind fifth-placed Strasbourg. That said, the last time Lance lost to Strasbourg five tours ago was 0-1. Since then, they have not lost in four games in a row. They beat Nice (3-0), Lille (2-1), Montpellier (2-0) and drew 1-1 with PSG. All the opponents are pretty tough. This only emphasises the good form that the blood-and-golders have built up. On home soil, they are particularly convincing. Over the last three games they have scored eight goals at home. In total, Lens have nine wins, five draws and only three defeats at home. Nantes have won four away games, drawn five times and lost eight. "The Canaries lack stability. They have been conceding and scoring a lot recently. This can be attributed to the fact that Nantes no longer have any serious tournament goals and are playing for fun. At the same time, they do not allow themselves to be too relaxed. In the last round, Nantes put up a strong fight against a much more motivated Bordeaux and won 5-3. Before that, Nantes put up a good fight but lost 2-3 to Marseille. And in the last five rounds, Nantes have scored and conceded themselves. And they have only lost once. So, the Canaries are very uncomfortable for any of their opponents, they prefer open football, create a lot of chances, but also allow their opponents a lot. Lens looks a little more powerful in attack, a little more organized. However, Nantes were victorious in the first leg 3-2. At the same time, Lance were 2-0 up by the 14th minute and managed to lose after conceding the decisive goal in the dying minutes. Nantes will have three suspensions in this game: Girotto, Fabio and Blah. Lens will also miss the game with Danso. But we can expect a bright attacking game from the encounter.
