Prediction: NA
Lens
Strasbourg will be looking to build on a hard-fought 1-0 victory over Olympique Marseille when they take on Lens at Stade de la Meinau. Known for their solid home form, Strasbourg are a tough side to break down, and with no fresh injury concerns, they will be full of confidence heading into Sunday's encounter.
Lens, meanwhile, have been struggling to find their best form of late, drawing each of their last four league games. Their defensive stability has been key, but they’ve struggled to find the cutting edge to secure wins. Adding to their woes, Morocco forward Anass Zaroury is banned for the match, limiting their attacking options. While Strasbourg will be pushing to capitalize on their momentum, Lens’ ability to grind out results could see them leave with a point. Taking everything into account, a close encounter is on the cards and we predict that the two sides are going to share the spoils on Matchday 7.
