Lens Nice betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

The most likely scenario for this match will be Lens winning. Besides playing indoors, with the massive support of their fans, Lens have in their favour the history of the head-to-head, as they won the last match on this ground between these two teams. Besides that, Nice is going through an irregular moment and showing difficulties against one of the teams playing better football in Ligue 1. Therefore, Lens is expected to be very confident and focused on the goal of getting the three points.

Preview
Lens and Nice face at Stade Bollaert‑Delelis, in a match for the 21th round of the Ligue 1. In the last head‑to‑head for this edition of the league, played on 29‑12‑2022, these teams have tied (0‑0). Oddly enough, the head‑to‑head record favours Nice: in the last 5 matches they won 3, tied 1 and lost 1. Nice registers significant differences between home and away results, so special attention is due to the home/away factor.

Analysis Lens

The home team is currently in the 2nd position of the league, with 45 points won, after 13 wins, 6 draws and 1 loss. In the penultimate match, they won in a home match against Auxerre, by (1‑0). In the last match, they tied in an away match against Troyes, by (1‑1). This is a team that usually maintains its competitive levels in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 8 wins, 6 draws and 1 loss in away matches; against 12 wins and 3 draws at their stadium.

In this competition, they have a sequence of 10 wins in the last home matches. There are a few recurrent results in their home matches: at half‑time 0‑0 (5 out of 10 matches) and after the 90' 1‑0 (4 out of 10 matches). Their offense has scored frequently, since they have scored goals in 9 of the last 10 matches for this competition. They have conceded the first goal in 4 of their 20 matches for this competition, and have only turned the score around in 1.

Lens enter this match after the away team drew 1-1 against Troyes. The home team could use a 5-2-3 tactical system, adopting a more secure approach, with the central area of the field well populated. In this design, the three players who play a more attacking role are Alexis Claude-Maurice, Lois Openda and Florian Sotoca. The man responsible for organising the play of his team is Seko Fofana. The coach Franck Haise will be without Jimmy Cabot and Wuilker Fariñez as they are currently being treated by the club's medical staff.

Confirmed Lineup: Brice Samba, Jean Junior Onana Onana, Kevin Danso, Facundo Medina, Jonathan Gradit, Massadio Haïdara, Przemysław Frankowski, Adrien Thomasson, Seko Fofana, David Costa, Wesley Saïd.
Coach: F. Haise.

Analysis Nice

The away team is currently in the 10th position of the league, with 28 points won, after 7 wins, 7 draws and 6 losses. In the penultimate match, they tied in an away match against Reims, by (0‑0). In the last match, they won in a home match against Lille, by (1‑0). This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 5 wins, 6 draws and 4 losses in away matches, with 18 goals scored and 15 conceded; against 5 wins, 5 draws and 5 losses at their stadium, with 17 goals scored and 17 conceded. In the last 10 away league matches Nice has a record of 3 wins, 4 draws and 3 losses, so they have won 13 points out of 30 possible. In their away league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 1‑0 (4 out of 10 matches). Their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 20 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 10 times and have only turned the score around in 2. In the last 10 away matches for this competition there are 2 periods that stand out: they have scored 4 of their 10 goals between minutes (16'‑30'); they have conceded 4 of their 10 goals between minutes (16'‑30').

Nice go into the game motivated after a 1-0 home victory against Lille: Gaetan Laborde scored the only goal of the match in the 34th minute. Nice usually operate in a 4-3-3 formation, favouring a faster style of play, with Badredine Bouanani, Gaetan Laborde and Sofiane Diop the three men they will line up in the forward positions. One of the visitors' main weaknesses is the number of fouls committed in very dangerous areas. The coach Didier Digard will be without the goalkeeper Marcin Bulkam, who is currently recovering from a shoulder injury.

Confirmed Lineup: Antoine Mendy, Kasper Schmeichel, Dante, Jean-Clair Todibo, Jordan Lotomba, Aaron Ramsey, Khépren Thuram, Youssouf Ndayishimiye, Hicham Boudaoui, Sofiane Diop, Gaëtan Laborde.
Coach: D. Digard.
