Prediction: 1-3
Lens
Angers and Lens square off against each other at Stade Raymond-Kopa in the Ligue 1 round 14. Les Scoistes are stuck at the bottom with only eight points on their account, and they are on a five-game losing run in the French top flight. All Sofiane Boufal, Souleyman Doumbia, Ali Kalla, Lois Diony, and Ulrick Eneme-Ella are out of contention with injuries for the home team.
Lens, on the other hand, are determined to represent France in European competitions next term, and their display in a 3-0 win over Toulouse is surely giving fans a reason for optimism ahead of upcoming challenges. Summer signing Lois Openda, who scored a hat-trick at the weekend, is widely expected to return to the starting XI, while defender Facundo Medina is back from suspension. Anyhow, away win should be considered as Angers are low on confidence ahead of Saturday’s match.
Highlighted Player (Seko Fofana):
Born in Paris on May 7, 1995, Seko Fofana is a midfielder who plays for Serie A side Udinese. Fofana started his career at the youth teams of Paris FC and in 2010 he moved to Lorient. After spending four years at the club, the French footballer joined Premier League side Manchester City in the 2013/2014 season.
Despite being a Man City player from 2014 to 2016, Seko Fofana did not see any game action in the English top flight with the Citizens as he was immediately sent on loan to Fulham (2014/2015). He played for Bastia on loan in the 2015/2016 season as well and in the summer of 2016 he signed a five-year deal with Italian side Udinese.
You should know that Fofana scored five goals in 22 appearances for the Zebrette in the 2016/2017 Serie A campaign. His contract with the Serie A team should expire on June 30, 2022. Due to his dual citizenship the Udinese footballer is eligible to play for France and Ivory Coast at senior level.
Highlighted Team (Lens):
Based in the Pas-De-Calais department, Lens is a French club that plays home games at Stade Bollaert-Delelis. The Sang et Or are well known for their red shirts with yellow stripes, while black is the dominant colour of their away jersey.
The club was founded back in 1906 and the Sang et Or originally played in green and black shirts. Speaking of their home ground, Stade Bollaert-Delelis can hold up to 38,058 spectators. The venue was opened back in 1933, and renovated during the 2014/15 season. Lens did well to win the Ligue 1 trophy in the 1997/98 season, with the team finishing the process level on points with second-place Metz.
As a result, the Sang et Or represented France in the Champions League group stages the following season. The club’s biggest European success came in the 1999/00 season when they made it to the UEFA Cup semis. Lens have won two Coupe de la Ligue trophies as well.
