Prediction

  • Following a UEFA Europa Conference league playoff clash against Panathiakos, Lens will host Stade Brestois on Sunday afternoon hoping to make it two out of two in Ligue 1 under new boss Will Still.
  • Since Lens returned to Ligue 1 for the 2020/21 season, the record between the Sang & Or and Brest has been perfectly balanced, with three wins for each side and two draws.
  • Lens have the opportunity to win two consecutive matches in the top flight against the Bretons for the first time since August-December 1986.
  • Brest are hoping to recover from a heavy defeat to Olympique de Marseille, which marked their first home loss on the first day of the season after being unbeaten in the last six.
