League leaders Marseille will have a stern test when they head to Lens for their next Ligue 1 game. Both teams have made strong starts to the season, and Lens only trails Marseille by two points. Let’s have a look at the match prediction here.
Lens have suffered two defeats so far this season, and both came against top-five opponents. They will be looking to avoid that here. As they have no European assignments this season, Lens will be looking to make the most of the opportunity.
In this game they will be defending their four-game unbeaten run. That started with a win against Lille and went all the way to the latest, a 2-1 home win against Paris FC. Three times in the last five meetings, they beat Marseille.
Marseille are coming off a loss in their trip to Sporting in the Champions League. They fell 2-1 in Portugal, and there won’t be much time to rest as they head straight to Lens.
This should be a much easier assignment for the side with a five-match winning run in the league. Marseille have only lost to Lyon and Rennes this season in Ligue 1.
Last time out in the competition, they thrashed Le Havre 6-2 with Mason Greenwood scoring four times. It was the fifth time in all competitions this season that they scored 3+.

Our Lens vs Marseille Prediction
This match has a high-scoring outcome written all over it. Marseille have scored the most goals in the league so far, and it is not like they are the most solid defensively.
While they will trouble Lens here, their hosts will surely find pockets to exploit, since Roberto De Zerbi prefers attacking football. Lens have also been good in attack, and that should show in this game. Our prediction for Lens v Marseille is for the match to produce more than 2.5 goals.
