Their current four-match winning streak is their longest in the top division since winning seven straight games from February to August 1998, when they won their lone domestic championship. Les Sang et Or have given themselves a big early cushion in the standings, but it remains to be seen if they can continue to play thus consistently throughout the league as the season progresses.
They have a five-point advantage over Rennes for second place and a guaranteed spot in the Champions League group stage the following year. Lens, who have recorded four straight home shutouts, are tied with league leaders Paris Saint-Germain for the fewest goals allowed (nine) with over a third of their domestic games still remaining.
Lens vs Clermont Foot Prediction
Les Sang et Or are the overwhelming favourites to win this match since they have a perfect home record this year and have maintained a clean sheet in their past four games at the stadium on Saturday. In their past eight games in all competitions, they are unbeaten against Les Lanciers, thus a loss tonight looks improbable.
Clermont should be able to score at least one goal in this game after scoring five goals in their previous three away games. However, Lens has been playing quite well lately and should eke out a victory.
Lens 2-1 Clermont Foot is expected.
Following their fourth straight Ligue 1 victory, Lens increased their lead over third-placed Rennes to five points. They now welcome a Clermont team to Stade Bollaert-Delelis that has recently specialised in draws, with three of their last four games ending in 1-1 draws and the other in a 1-3 home loss to Brest. The strength of Lens’ team should allow them to control significant sections of this contest, and with home field advantage working in their favour, support Franck Haise’s team to win the three points.
