It's gonna be a hard game of lens. The standing does not become my main concern but history has told us everything about the head-to-head between lens vs strasbourg. You can see head-to-head between lens vs strasbourg below. It seems like that strasbourg is far from dominating the match against lens.



It's quite hard to think if lens gonna win easily even though lens's performance is quite good at this moment by winning three matches in a row without any problem.

It's quite risky to take strasbourg but it seems worthy enough to take it.

The chance to loss is far bigger compared with lens right now.

Lens are such a great team this season honestly. I didn't give them much chance for maintaining their claim for upper places in the league table.

But now they are even close to the leader technically as the gap is only six points. PSG also have a big contribution in this situation but this shouldn't overshadow Lens' high effort in most of the season so far. Even if they don't maintain their chance for the league title mathematically I'm expecting them to fight for the second place until the end of the season. Because it is a very important place to be able to qualify for the Champions League group stage directly. But at the end of the season I still favour Marseille for the place.

There shouldn't be much pressure on Lens because overall they are better than Strasbourg who they will be playing today. But that does not mean they can underestimate Strasbourg just like that. This will also be their home game and that will surely motivate them even more to dedicate a win to their supporters in the stadium. I think they will be able to win, even if not by many goals.

Lens team should be able to win today against strasburg but i don't think it will be easy since relegation opponents are allways tricky to face, strasbourg team is barely out of relegation zone and they can't afford to lose points at this stage still lens are too much for them to handle and if lens team wins it will put a huge pressure on psg.

Maybe you mean Lens, yes and today Lens will face Strasbourg at home, where Lens is the favorite to win so that it can continue to stick to PSG's points, which are still at the top of the standings. Because Strasbourg is a team that is still very close to the relegation zone, so I'm not sure that Strasbourg will be able to win at home to Lens today. Other than that, it's true that Lens is still in very good form so far.

Lens, who is currently in 2nd place will try to get close to the leaders who are only 6 points away. in this match, of course, Lens is more favored to be able to win over Strasbourg. moreover, considering that Lens' performance is much better than Strasbourg this season. So, on paper Lens has a high probability of defeating his opponent. Moreover, this match Lens is playing at its own cage. so, three points is the result they must get to reduce the difference in points from PSG.

As for Strasbourg, although this match was not easy for them. but like it or not, Antonetti's team must perform optimally to secure their position in order to stay in the safe zone. yes, considering that Strasbourg is currently ranked 16th and only one point away from Auxerre which is below it. which means, if Strasbourg loses this match. thus, Auxerre has the opportunity to shift its ranking.

Unique, when referring to the H2H history of these two teams. from the last 5 meeting matches, Strasbourg managed to win 3 wins, 1 defeat, and in the last meeting these two teams ended in a draw with a score of 2-2. that means, Strasbourg has the capital to continue to achieve positive results from the meeting of these two teams. well, just consider it, there is a possibility if Strasbourg can hold Lens to a draw in this match. or, subvert the home team.

That's gonna be an easy match for today. Lens already fully prepared for the match against strasbourg. Strasbourg was not in good condition after it was losing in the previous match while at the same time lens is still continue its win streak. I think that the positive trend that already got by lens will be boosting the mentality of players against strasbourg. Lens gonna be a very strong competitor for paris saint german right now. The win against strasbourg will cut to gap to the PSG become even close. I can't even wait for lens will able to surpass PSG. that will be a very interesting competition. lens will be facing PSG next weeks.
Strasbourg has almost zero chance against lens. Im worrying to take the risk by putting into the strasbourg. Lens must become a very wise decision to take easy money. lens gonna win easily against strasbourg. I have no doubt about that.

The PSG coach is bad tactically, and all the players are too dependent on Messi, Neymar and mbappe. And it will be very easy for your opponent to lock his moves. As you said, PSG is a star-studded team but it doesn't live up to the team's needs. Players in his ranks don't meet the needs of the team, including the midfielders. So it all depends on Messi, Neymar and Mbappe.

To be honest the French league is not competitive and PSG always win easily in the league even playing without one of their star players because the team there is below them. But when in UCL they faced strong teams, they couldn't do much because they were used to playing easy.

We are very close to finishing this season and I'm sure a team like Lens is trying hard to stay in the second position in the table and don't lose what they worked hard for it because they have 60 points just like Marseille since Strasbourg is a team in the 16th place of the table and during the previous five games they had, they just won one easy game, I guess Lens is going to take the full three points from this game.

With Strasbourg's statistics in such a way, it would be too risky if we guessed wrong which team would win later, especially since Lens has a stronger goal, so of course they will maximize the opportunities they have to convert into goals in this match. But I think betting on Lens to win will be a bit risky, so I would prefer to take a bet over 2.25 goals with quite safe odds @ 1.65, for sure there will be a team that wins this match with a minimum score of 2-1.

Lens are on form no doubt. But   teams on form do lose matches and that's not new in football. Right now I will consider Lenz to be in the same strength with Monaco and Marseille. but if you view Strasbourg past record, you will notice that they have been a big distraction to Monaco and Masseille even when this two teams were on form. Strasbourg succeeded with a draw against Marseille when many including the book makers predicted in favour of Maseille. I know Lenz seems favourable in this match but I sure know it will  be a difficult moment for them.

Lens will be the favorite in my bet later because I think they want to stay on the winning track to overtake PSG at the top of the standings with a distance of 6 points considering PSG's lucky defeat and PSG's inconsistency in the last 2 matches, I think Lens will play as the host of course they will play their best in front of their fans, I think Lens will win above 2 goals 

I also think Lens will beat Strasbourg tonight, because it's a very important match for them and they must get three points to try and top the standings. But Strasbourg are really not an easy opponent, although they are below the middle of the standings. Their last game against Monaco was very good and could have ended in a draw. They also recently drew with Marseille. It will probably be a tough match for Lens.

Strasbourg is a team which scores a lot of goals and can put any team in difficulty,both Monaco and Paris had a lot of difficulties to win against Strasbourg and both conceded goals.I am not saying that Lens will not win but surely it won't be that easy and the odd of 1.5 seems a bit low.I can understand the bookies though as one win from Lens during tonight game will put a lot of pressure on Paris as they will be just 3 points behind Paris with this win so a lot of different factors to consider in this game before placing a bet,nevertheless I have placed little money on a Lens win.

Why is it called heavy? I don't see anything impressive for Strasbourg in this regard, so with the conditions of opportunities and Lens' performance now, they are definitely the favorites, especially since the kit also knows that in this match Estadio Bollaert-Delelis, which incidentally is the headquarters, is starting to show its hauntedness again.

I think this will work in Lens's favor regardless of anything at the moment Strasbourg still won't be able to make the match theirs because their current performance hasn't been able to give any certainty against Lens.

Lans are well prepared for their next match. Because the Lans are far ahead of the opposition, so the Lans will never think of the opposition as a small team. Because currently some teams lose badly after playing very well.

Lens - Strasbourg will be one of the tough matches for today, and what is your prediction for the match? Keep the odds outside, I know that because of the odds many people might say Lens will win today's match, anyway, Lens will win the match today because their form is quite good than the form of the away team 👥.
I know that Strasbourg will not take any chances on the field and because of the form of Lens, Strasbourg will compress their defenses so maybe they could win or draw.

In the term of schedules Lens is more easy compared to PSG and today if Lens can able to overcomes Strasbourg they will successfully to cut their points gap with PSG and the opportunities to earn 3 points from this match is quite high considering Strasbourg recent performance is not really good and regarding teams conditions i can see the players from both teams are in the good shape so far there are no serious problem from them

I am sure this match will be so tight because from their previous meetings i have seen Strasbourg can makes Lens in trouble several times but i have been notice Lens player Lois Openda recently has showed good performance with scores 6 goals in the last 5 matches and Strasbourg should be careful to this player however the odds for Lens currently @1.50 it's clearly they are the favourite and this is not high odds but it's decent to try

In terms of defensive work Ronaldo and Messi are really the same. Ronaldo isn't working defensively. I would even say that it is more likely for Messi to get the ball deep in his own half and drive the game forward like almost nobody else. He is rarely engaging in duels close to his own box, but he is ready to switch the game's dynamic in many cases. But there is one thing that puts Messi miles apart from Ronaldo and that is the fact that Messi adapted his game from a pure goal scorer to an outstanding assistant and still be a goalscorer. The following overview is for 2022.



Messi is serving like a god. Ronaldo is not at all. That is what I like about Messi when he became older, he understood that he can't just take the ball like in his early and mid twenties, run 80 meters on his own and score (even though he still sometimes takes the ball and crosses the entire pitch like he used to back then). Messi let's take teammates penalties, he let's take teammates freekicks, he enjoys when his teammates score. He does the best to his abilities to always put his teammates into the position he himself would like to be in.

That is why he is still a key player for PSG. But I will keep repeating that I doubt someone with his career can motivate himself week after week to be better than last time in Ligue 1. There is no clasico in Ligue 1 that's comparable to La Liga. There is no Manchester City or Arsenal as of now. Ligue 1 is kindergarten for PSG and when you surround yourself with weaker teams, you start losing the absolute desire to give your 110% in every game. That is the issue PSG has when it comes to the Champions League. Without realizing you play at 70% an entire season and then there is Bayern Munich tomorrow and you think you are ready because you are dominating Ligue 1.

Monaco are another team following Lens - Marseille duo right behind in the standings now. There is only a gap of three points so it can be closed up for sure. The competition for the Champions League is just getting bigger while we are getting close to the end of the season on one hand. Monaco made a really big effort last season to qualify for the Champions League groups directly but they lost the position to Marseille in the final moments.

This time maybe they can do the same to them. But while there is Lens as well it wouldn't be easy at all though. Lens also have been beyond the expectations so far.
