Our prediction for this Ligue 1 match:
Lens play host to Clermont at their Stade Bollaert-Delelis on day 30 of the current Ligue 1 campaign. Les Sang et Or suffered a dip in form, with the team losing three of their last four league matches, while sharing the spoils with Le Havre. Lens are determined to represent France in European competitions for yet another term and they are likely to fight tooth and nail against Les Lanciers. Ruben Aguilar is banned for the match, while both Salis Abdul Samed and Jimmy Cabot miss out with injuries.
Clermont, on the other hand, are stuck in the relegation zone with only 22 points on their account. As Lens will not have a better chance than this to return to winning ways, we predict that Clermont are going to return home with their hands empty. All Jim Allevinah, Maxime Gonalons, and Cheick Oumar Konate are sidelined with injuries, while there are no suspended players in the away team.
