The 27th round of the French championship will kick off with a match at the "Stade Pierre-Mauroy", where the local Lille will face off against Lens. Here's the forecast for the match from the experts at Dailysports.
Lille
The "Les Dogues" confidently dealt with the Austrian side Sturm Graz in the Round of 16 of the Conference League and will now face Aston Villa in the quarterfinals. However, Lille's primary objective remains returning to the Champions League. They are currently three points behind third-placed Monaco in the league standings under Fonseca's guidance. However, the recent results in Ligue 1 haven't been particularly satisfying for the team.
In the last five rounds, Lille secured only two victories, defeating Le Havre at home (3-0) and Reims away (1-0). However, there was an unexpected defeat against Toulouse (1-3), as well as two consecutive draws against Rennes at home (2-2) and Brest away (1-1) in the previous round. It's worth noting that Lille has been very strong at home, losing only one match out of eight.
Lens
The "Blood and Gold" had a dismal start to the season, finding themselves at the bottom of the league table. However, the team not only managed to climb out of the relegation zone but also entered the race for the Champions League. Currently, Lens occupies the sixth position, trailing even second-placed Brest by just five points.
In the last league match, the team suffered a 1-3 defeat against Nice at home. Generally, Lens has been performing poorly at home recently, suffering defeats against Monaco in Ligue 1 and the Cup, against PSG in the league, and a draw against Freiburg in the Europa League. However, their away form has been much better. In their last four away matches, Lens has secured three victories and one draw.
