Lens will take on Angers in their next Ligue 1 assignment as they continue to push PSG in the title race. Heading into this game, Lens are second in the standings, while Angers are 12th. Let’s have a look at the match prediction.
Lens wasted a perfect chance to go back to the top last week as PSG suffered a rare defeat against Monaco. Instead, Lens lost 2-1 away to Lorient, their sixth league loss.
Returning to play at home, however, is sure to lift their spirits, as Les Sang et Or are the best-performing hosts. From 13 league matches at home, Lens have collected 33 points, accounting for 59% of their total points. They’ve only lost twice at home in Ligue 1.
Angers haven't had much going their way in the recent weeks. Right ahead of this game, they are coming from a 2-0 defeat at home to Nice.
That was their 12th Ligue 1 loss this season. Only one side outside the relegation region has lost more. Le SCO have suffered four defeats in their last five matches and only managed one win in the process.
Across those four losses, they failed to score, and it means they come here having netted one goal in the last five games. A majority of their points were won at home, and Angers have only managed 12 of their 32 points in away matches.

Our Lens vs Angers Prediction
Only four teams have lost as many league matches as Angers this season. They are looking to avoid a 13th defeat in Ligue 1, but their record in this particular fixture doesn’t really support their ambitions. In the last two seasons, Lens did a double on Angers, and with their home form, this could bear a third.
Angers are even struggling in attack, having scored just one goal in their last five matches. In this form, we struggle to see how Angers would turn tables on Lens. Our prediction for Lens v Angers is that Lens wins.
