Lens, Recent FormLens had to settle for a share of the spoils in their last match, which ran out a 1-1 draw against Reims. During that encounter they had 46% possession and had 9 attempts on goal with 1 on target, while their opponents hit 2 of their 11 shots on goal.
They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 7 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 6 and seen valuable points lost. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games, but so far this season, they have conceded at least one goal in 7 of their 10 games at Stade Bollaert-Delelis.
They have had an excellent run of form at Stade Bollaert-Delelis recently, winning 5 out of their last 6 home games.
On an individual basis, David Pereira da Costa will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 3 goals in Lens' last 6 league games.
Monaco, Recent FormAny Monaco pre-match expectations for their last outing were misplaced, after an unexpected 2-1 home defeat by Toulouse. In that game they had 65% possession and managed 22 attempts on goal, with 5 on target, compared to Toulouse who had 14 attempts and 7 on target.
It's reasonable to say they have enjoyed some decent goal scoring form of late, with 10 goals notched up in their last 6 matches, but while their offensive line is working, their defensive setup has shown cause for concern with 11 goals shipped and valuable points dropped. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 away games, but so far this season they have conceded at least one goal in 10 of their 11 games on the road.
They have had a good run of form away from home recently, unbeaten in 5 of their last 6 games on the road and picking up 3 wins along the way.
Wissam Ben Yedder will be aiming to add his name to the scoresheet again to extend his goal tally of 5 goals in the last 6 league outings for Monaco.
After a good 3-0 win for Monaco in this pair's last league encounter, Lens will certainly be looking for a better result this time round.
In the league, Lens have been unbeaten in their last 3 times they have welcomed Monaco to Stade Bollaert-Delelis.
