Our prediction for this Ligue 1 match:
Buoyed by a 3-1 win over Brest, Lens will be looking to give fans yet another reason to celebrate when they face Auxerre in the Ligue 1 round 31. Les Sang et Or are eyeing a spot in European competitions and they have no other option but to go all-out attack against Auxerre. Experienced forward Florian Sotoca is a major doubt after limping off with injury in the last league match, while defender Deiver Machado is back from suspension.
Fellow defender Facundo Medina serves a one-game ban due to the accumulation of yellow cards. Christopher Pelissier’s troops, on the other hand, are stuck in the middle of the table with nothing to play for in the season finale. Given their poor displays in back-to-back defeats to Olympique Lyon (1-3) and Lille (1-3), we believe that there is a big value in betting on the home side.
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.
