I also expect Lens to get a comfortable win over Strasbourg because their performance so far has been really impressive. If they keep up this dominance throughout the match there shouldn't be any problem. This win can make Lens very advantageous before Marseille play their match also by the way. Because Marseille don't look like they have a comfortable match this time.

Marseille's next match is an away one against Lorient. Lorient are one of the teams that shouldn't be underestimated. They are one of the middle-placed teams and their starting this season was really nice too. They just lost momentum later on. However Marseille's away performance is just hard to overlook. They are the best away team with only 1 loss and 2 draws in 14 matches. They had better use this as an advantage to win this one.
This seasonal stoppage time seems to be so challenging in all the European leagues. Nearly all the league are experiencing a decline in winning percentage.  Much d was are recorded lately,  even in marches that supposed to be a bonus point ends up being shared. This is mostly because, teams a making every thing possible to make sure that the have shifted themselves to a position better than the previous. I no more just matches due to the current form of the teams involved. I predict matches base on the moment. Easy win may turn woeful lose in this end time of the season. Matches are becoming more difficult to predict, Lens match is one of them.

Lens success  make close position with PSG right now become three points after winning from Strasbourg, right now seems excited with standing position team in Ligue 1 because PSG as top standing have huge pressure from Lens actually next week the two teams will face each other. PSG against Nice this week and Lens more expected for Nice can defeating  PSG and three points remaining will be interested until matchday 38 to know who will win Ligue 1 this season.

Lens have two big matches against PSG and Marseille, third team on the race for Ligue 1 tittle in this season and actually who can win when third team face each other have chance for winning tittle in this season, but next match if PSG win seems they will be the winner of Ligue 1 back to back.

Interesting indeed, because the teams below Lens' position are teams that are used to competing for that place such as Marseille, Monaco and Lille. What's more, Lens is level on points with Marseille and also only has a three point gap with Monaco.

So yes, it is quite convincing, of course, that the competition for second place will continue to be tough competition until the end of the season. But I personally don't care who will manage to finish in second place because at the end of the day, the teams from Ligue 1 are not fully able to compete for much longer in the Champions League.
Even though it's like that, they still want to get more income by being in the Champions League, I think because of course they realize this can also be a source of income for them, especially since we know that Ligue 1 from a trophy holder perspective is difficult for them to pursue.

At the moment Lens is 2 goals ahead of Strasbourg and seeing the conditions it is clear that 3 points can be achieved at this time, that means that Marseille has a tougher job if they want to shift Lens in second place because they really have to score more than 3 goals for that.

The first half ended in a temporary victory for Lens with a score of 1-0.
I think when you look at Lens' dominance and opportunities in the first half, the chance to win is clearly getting bigger and of course if you see a number of opportunities that show they are quite dominant, actually in this case for the second half there is hope for them to increase the goal margin in this match.

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.
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 being on form doesn't really matter, they are just way too much better than Strassbourgh to begin with. I mean Lens is second in the league, and surely they have 3 in a row wins but even without that, they were third in the league, they are just way too good, whereas Strassbourgh is a team that is fighting not to relegate, 16th in the league right now and that should tell you how much the difference is.

It is not going to be easy to win or anything like that, but it is looking as good as it gets for them. Lens will have an easy win, and it's one of the easiest bets that I ever had. It's football and maybe a shocking unexpected thing happens but I doubt that it would, this should be a pretty straightforward game.

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.

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.
Based on probability and analysis, I think so too. Lens are the favorites to win the match against due to their recent form. Lens has successfully collected 11 points in their last 5 matches which also made them unbeaten. Today the probability of Lens winning is very high, of course this will give a chance to get something on the bet.

while Strasbourg is still struggling to get away from the relegation zone, but I think they have to accept the fact that defeat is the most difficult thing for them to avoid in this match. Of course there's no guarantee of getting Lens to win, but the possibility of Lens winning is to be expected.
Lens is more likely in this match. Because the Lens players are much better than the opposition players. So expect Lens to emerge victorious in the match. But in order to win the match, one should play the match responsibly without looking down on the opposition team.

The fact that Lens is in second place in the table, or that they have more valuable players than Strasburg, is not a good reason for them to claim they will win. There is a possibility that Strasburg could somehow get another result against Lens, but the only thing they have been able to beat recently was Auxerre, a team that is near the danger zone and is not very strong. Therefore, we cannot be certain what will happen in this game.

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.

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.
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.

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.
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.

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.

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 👥.
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.
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.
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.

If you only rely on star players, of course this is the wrong strategy because the star players at PSG such as Messi, Mbabpe and Neymar are players who are in the striker position. So PSG needs to look at other players to secure the center and back positions to make the team stronger, because strikers also can't do much if the midfield and back lines are destroyed and the team doesn't develop as desired.
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.

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  Wink

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.
