Linas Montlhery managed to qualify for the last 64 of the Coupe de France this season after beating AC Paris 15 on penalties and Paris 13 Atletico with a score of 2-1. Furthermore, the owner of the runner-up position in the current Ligue 1 standings, Lens, will come to challenge Stephane Cabrelli’s camp.
This season, Lens has at least two chances to win the title in a major competition for the first time since they last won Ligue 2 in the 2008-2009 season. First, making a surprise through Ligue 1 where Lens is currently in second place in the standings with only four points behind Paris Saint-Germain.
Since returning to Ligue 1 in 2020, Les Sang et Or has immediately become a challenger that the other giants cannot ignore. After ending two successive seasons in seventh place, this season Lens managed to become one of the title contenders competing with PSG and Marseille.
The second, of course, is through the Coupe de France, a competition he has never won to date even though he has been runner-up three times.
Last season, Lens’ run in this competition was halted in the round of 16 after the goals scored by Said and Kalimuendo failed to match Monaco’s four goals in the first round. Whereas in the previous round, Lens managed to overcome a big obstacle by beating Lille via penalty shootout.
This weekend’s visit to Stade Robert Bobin marks the first meeting between Linas Montlhery and Lens. The visitors have come with an unbeaten record in the last seven league matches – winning six times including hosting PSG 3-1 in the game earlier this year.
