One of the top Ligue 1 matches lined up this weekend will see Monaco host Lens at Stade Louis II. Both are contenders for Europe, and this match finds Monaco in fifth spot, two places behind Lens. Let’s have a look at the prediction here.
Monaco have been on and off this season, and their last outing was another instance of their inconsistency. They lost 1-0 at home against Paris FC but recovered in the Champions League with a 1-0 win over Bodo/Glimt.
Les Monegasques are left on 20 points, four behind PSG at the summit. Among the unwanted records that they hold is that they’ve conceded the most (17) among the top nine sides.
Lens have since recovered from their shock defeat to Metz, which denied them a golden chance to go top of the standings. Here they come, straight off a 3-0 win at home to Lorient.
They didn't just win the game but did it in dominant fashion, showcasing their strength in attack. Lens have now scored 2 or more goals in seven of their last 10 matches.
Apart from the Metz defeat, the only other side to have beaten Lens in the last 10 matches was league leaders PSG. Being two points behind leaders, Lens have sights trained on the top position.
The last time they faced Monaco, Lens won 4-0.

Our Monaco vs Lens Prediction
Monaco’s inconsistent run of form reared its head again last weekend as the team lost shockingly to newly promoted Paris FC. From that to another match that troubles them, Monaco may struggle here too. They lost three times in the last five home matches against Lens.
The hosts have only won twice in the last 10 meetings with Lens. The visitors head into the match knowing a win could lift them to the league summit, and that will be their target. Our prediction for Monaco v Lens is that Lens wins.
