Two sides in direct competition for a European position in Ligue 1 this season will collide on Saturday. Lens come into this round in solid domestic form, while Monaco have suffered two defeats in their last five matches in Ligue 1.
An exciting clash in Ligue 1 is set for this weekend, with two of the sides in pursuit of a Champions League position locking horns. Lens will have the important home field advantage for this fixture, as they look to stretch their unbeaten record to five matches in the competition. The French side have picked up three wins from their last four matches in the league.
A victory for the home side this weekend would see them move above their rivals, and they could end the round as high as third depending on other results. However, Lens will be looking for a return to winning ways after being held to a draw in their previous fixture by Reims.
Monaco will also be chasing vital points this weekend, as their Champions League hopes have taken a hit in recent weeks after losing twice across their last five. It would also be a concern that they have picked up just a single victory over that same period of matches. But, a return to winning ways on Saturday could see them end the round in the top three.
The Ligue 1 side would have been extremely disappointed to have dropped points in their previous fixture, as they dominated proceedings against Toulouse before dropping to a 2-1 defeat at home. More will be expected from their attacking players this weekend, as Monaco registered just five shots on target from 22 efforts last weekend.
Lens have a fine league record against Monaco, with their defeat in the previous encounter between the sides being their only loss in seven meetings. Over that period, Lens have recorded four victories, which includes a 3-0 success in this exact fixture last term.
It could be challenging to overlook the record Lens boasts in this fixture when making a selection this weekend. They are unbeaten in their last three home matches against their rivals, and they come into this round in better recent form than Monaco. Therefore, we will be siding with a 2-0 win for the home team.
