Lens will face Reims on Wednesday - Club Friendlies

Stade Reims will host Lens at the Stade Auguste-Delaune on Wednesday (December 21) in a friendly between the two Ligue 1 sides. Reims are playing the third of three friendlies this week.

The hosts have endured a difficult start to their season but have begun picking up points as they look to avoid the drop. Reims played out a 1-1 draw against Montpellier in their last competitive outing. They looked set to come away with all three points before a late equaliser pegged them back.

Lens, meanwhile, have had a brilliant season and will fancy themselves as early European contenders. They picked up a 2-1 comeback home win over Clermont Foot in their last game. Wesley Said and Seko Fofana got on the scoresheet after the interval to help overturn a first-half deficit.

The visitors beat Ligue 2 outfit Le Havre in a friendly last time out and will look to continue that ahead of their competitive return.

Reims are on a run of back-to-back wins and are unbeaten in their last nine games across competitions. They have won their last three games at home and will look to continue that run.

Lens have won their last six games on the bounce and will look to extend that streak this week. They have performed well in this fixture recently and should come out on top here.
