Prediction: 1-1
Angers
Lens and Angers square off against each other at Stade Bollaert-Delelis in what is expected to be a very exciting game. Lens did well to beat Dijon on the road at the weekend, with the team once again proving their worth on their return to the Ligue 1. The Yellow-Reds aim to give fans yet another reason for celebration, and they are certainly capable of beating les Scoistes at home ground.
Angers suffered a 1-0 loss to Olympique Lyon on Matchday 11, with the team dropping to 11th position in the standings. Nonetheless, les Scoistes have been producing fine displays on the travels this season, with the team eyeing their fourth away win. A close encounter is on the cards at Stade Bollaert-Delelis, and we believe that there is a big value in betting on draw. The good news for the visiting team is that midfielder Thomas Mangani returns from suspension.
