Match Preview
The once-promising Lens team has been struggling since the start of 2023, losing the “season’s phenomenon” title they once held. Last week, coach Franck Haise’s squad bid farewell to the Coupe de France tournament after losing to reigning champions Nantes in the quarterfinals, a match where they were the favorites.
Though they are still in the top 5 of the league, their failure to regain their form makes their future uncertain. However, Lens can still rely on their home stadium, where they’ve won 11 out of 12 matches since the start of Ligue 1 2022/23, an unprecedented achievement in their history of competing in the tournament.
For sure, Lens must put their disappointment in the Coupe de France aside and focus on their 117th competitive “Derby du Nord” match against Lille. Moreover for Lille, who are just 6 points behind Lens and right outside the top 5, this upcoming match carries a lot of weight.
Scoring a victory over a direct competitor would undoubtedly boost Lille’s confidence. Especially Lille already won the first leg of this season’s derby back in October, with a narrow 1-0 win.
However, in their last away game against Lens, they lost by the same scoreline. It’s worth noting that since 1985, Lens has never won two consecutive home games against Lille in the Ligue 1.
Lille currently has better form than Lens, winning twice as many matches (4) in their last 8 Ligue 1 matches. However, they will have to play without Paulo Fonseca, after the coach was given a red card in their recent victory over Brest.
With both teams having much to prove, this thrilling encounter which is can be watch via live streaming could turn the tide for the rest of the Ligue 1 season.
