Lens and Lille meet for the 103rd time in the topflight, in the Derby du Nord. The two sides are seven places apart in the Ligue 1 standings, with Lille second and Lens ninth. Let’s have a look at the match prediction below.
Two defeats in the opening four matches have left Lens already playing catch-up this early. The hosts have had trouble when facing top sides.
In their very first match of the season, Lens fell to Lyon 1-0 before picking up wins against Brest and Le Havre. Their return from the international break saw them suffer a 2-0 defeat handed down by the champions, PSG.
Lille have had a stable start and look like they potentially could challenge PSG’s dominance. They are coming off three straight wins, having started the season with a high-scoring draw away to Brest.
While they haven't been at their best defensively, Lille reorganized and haven't conceded three again. They have only one clean sheet in their last four matches, though.
Before leaving for the international break, Lille handed down a 7-1 beating to Lorient, and then they returned to a 2-1 win over Toulouse. Les Dogues are unbeaten in six matches against Lens, and they won each of the last three.
