Lens vs Marseille Prediction

Lens scored three goals for the first time in Ligue 1 since March and have won their last two home games in the fixture, scoring thrice and conceding once.

Martin Satriano, Ruben Aguilar, Wesley Saïd, Jimmy Cabot and Ismaël Ganiou are sidelined with injuries, while Przemyslaw Frankowski is a doubt. Abdukodir Khusanov and Jonathan Gradit will serve suspensions.

Marseille, meanwhile, have lost two of their last three league outings, conceding thrice in each loss. Nonetheless, they have won six of their last seven Ligue 1 away games.

The visitors have a lengthy absentee list for the trip to the Stade Bollaert-Delelis. Ruben Blanco, Valentin Carboni, Faris Moumbagna, Bilal Nadir, Derek Cornelius, Pol Lirola and Amine Harit are injured.

Both teams have some absentees, so a draw could ensue.
