Nice vs Lens Prediction: Ligue 1 Match on 20.12.2023

It has been a challenging period in the top flight for Nice, but they will be aiming to get back on track on Wednesday when they host Lens. Nice remain second in the standings, but they have lost ground on the league leaders after a poor run of results in recent weeks.

 

Ligue 1 Preview

Nice will be in search for a response when they return to Ligue 1 action on Wednesday. They have dropped to two defeats in their last three matches, which has enabled PSG to open up a healthy advantage at the top of the standings. However, Nice will be desperate to avoid a third defeat in four league matches this weekend, as their advantage in the race for a Champions League spot has been cut to four points. 

Nice produced one of their most disappointing performances of the season over the weekend, as they were easily beaten 3-1 on the road by Le Havre. Nothing went right for the visitors on that day, and their misery was compounded following the sending off of Jean-Clair Todibo with nine minutes remaining.

Lens will likely emerge as one of the leading contenders for a Champions League spot in the second half of the season, as they have shown some solid recent form on the field in recent weeks. They have picked up four wins from their last five to climb up to seventh in the standings. That run of form also means that they are now just four points off the top three places in the standings. 

Lens picked up a seventh victory of the season in their latest match in the competition, as they knocked off Reims to register a 2-0 home win. Wesley Said opened the scoring in that clash before the half time break. Oscar Cortes netted the second with 15 minutes remaining. 

Nice vs Lens Head to Head

Nice landed a 1-0 win in the previous match between the sides last term. However, this exact fixture ended in a 0-0 draw in December 2022. Nice boasts the better overall record, as they have suffered just one defeat in the last seven meetings between these French sides. 

Nice vs Lens Prediction

There isn’t much to separate these sides based on their performances this term. However, a chance will be taken on the visitors to get their campaign on track for a Champions League push in the second half of the season.
