PSG vs Lens Prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds
The hosts are dominating the Ligue 1 standings as usual.
It’s the tenth Ligue 1 2024-25 game for Paris Saint Germain when they host RC Lens next. The destined favourites of this game are obviously giants PSG, but this won’t be an easy one for them as Lens with their composite defence looks like a tough nut to crack this season.
Paris Saint Germain are unbeaten in the French top division and are currently having 23 points from nine games, from seven wins and two draws. The side are standing tall at the poll position and can ill-afford to lose points, as AS Monaco are just three points short.
RC Lens are showing some brilliance too. The side are currently fifth with 14 points and have just lost once. They have the best defensive tally in the entire league, but their dull attack has made fewer victories.
Kick-Off:
Saturday, November 02 at 09:30 PM IST
Location: Parc des Princes, Paris.
Form
Paris Saint Germain (in all competitions): W-D-W-D-L
Lens (in all competitions): L-W-D-D-D
Players to Watch:
Marco Asensio (Paris Saint Germain)
The star winger hasn’t played to his potential for PSG this season. In the league, he has scored only two goals and assisted twice. His off-form might be a reason for Luis Enrique to not have him for full minutes.
Goal contributions against the most defensively strong unit might boost his morale. So, this game can be a turning point for him.
Abdukodir Khusanov (Lens)
The 20-year-old footballer has been one of the key reasons for RC Lens to do well in the back this season. His error-free defending and good tackles have been a huge up for the side. However, the upcoming game will be his toughest challenge, as his side will be up against the most fierce attack.
Match Facts:
- PSG are the only unbeaten team in Ligue 1 2024-25.
- RC Lens have faced the least number of goals in the ongoing Ligue 1.
- PSG have won the last three games against RC Lens.
