Match Preview
Even though it has been seven years since Lens defeated Nantes in Ligue 1, this moment is ideal for altering that viewpoint. Although Nantes is the host, Lens has been playing outstanding football this year, scoring almost every time they have played.
Furthermore, their defense has been solid and reliable, allowing only seven goals. Apart from Moses Simon, who has scored three goals this season, Nantes has only managed to score eight goals. No other player has ever taken a shot in front of an opposing goal for Nantes.
Only three teams in Ligue 1 have not yet suffered a loss, and Lens is one of them. They are winning the game by employing an attacking style of play. The opposite is true for Nantes, who have just one victory to their name and are having trouble locating individuals who can win games.
