Sports Mole has given their predictions and previews for all the Ligue 1 matches happening this weekend, including the Lens vs. Lille game.
Angers will be facing St Etienne on Saturday at 4.00 pm in an attempt to move out of the Ligue 1 relegation zone. Both teams have only scored six times in their eight opening games. Sports Mole predicts a close match with Saint-Etienne winning 1-0.
Reims will play against Brest at 6.00 pm on Saturday. Reims lost their last game against Auxerre, while Brest drew with Bayer Leverkusen in the Champions League. The prediction for this game is a 1-1 draw, as recent matches between these teams have been closely contested.
The highlight of the evening will be the Lens vs. Lille match at 8.00 pm. Lens and Lille are separated only by the number of goals scored in the top half of the Ligue 1 standings. Lens has not scored in their last two home games, but facing an injury-plagued Lille side might change that. The prediction is a 1-1 draw, as Lens has been drawing matches consistently and Lille has been performing well recently.
In addition to these matchups, it is worth noting that Lille will be looking to maintain their momentum from the Champions League win over Atletico Madrid, while Lens will aim to capitalize on their recent victory against Saint-Etienne. The battle between these two teams will be crucial in shaping the top half of the Ligue 1 table.
Overall, the weekend fixtures in Ligue 1 promise to be exciting and closely fought, with each team eager to secure valuable points in the league standings. Fans can expect intense action and unpredictable results as the teams battle it out on the field.
