Ligue 1 | Match Preview

Lens welcome league leaders PSG to Stade Bollaert-Delelis for one of the biggest Ligue 1 fixtures of the week.

PSG, meanwhile, remain the benchmark in Ligue 1 thanks to their elite squad depth, league-best attack, and outstanding defensive consistency.

Although PSG enter the contest as favorites, recent meetings in northern France suggest Lens are more than capable of causing problems for the visitors.

Match Prediction

Lens possess one of the strongest home records in Ligue 1 and should make life extremely difficult for PSG throughout this contest. Their aggressive pressing, home atmosphere, and attacking transitions have consistently troubled top opposition this season.

The visitors continue to produce goals consistently while remaining one of the most difficult teams in France to break down defensively.

Lens are expected to compete strongly and create opportunities, but PSG’s extra quality in attack gives them a slight edge heading into this fixture.
