Form, Standings, Stats

Last Game: Brest 1-1 Lens
Sunday, February 5 at 4.05pm in Ligue 1

We say: Lorient 0-1 Lens

Much of Lorient's domestic success this season centred around Moffi, and with the Nigerian off to Nice, we expect they will have a difficult time finding someone else to replace his quality in the attacking third. Lens, meanwhile, are as tough to break down as any side in Ligue 1, conceding the fewest goals domestically thus far (16), and although their form has dropped a little, we anticipate they will frustrate Lorient and eventually find a breakthrough in transition.
