Lens to Win
There is a 100% possibility for Lens to win this game as they won all seven of their home matches in Ligue 1 this term. Clermont meanwhile were able to win just two of their seven away games.
Under 3.5 Goals
Lens’s 71% of matches this season ended with under 3.5 goals. In the same sense, Clermont’s 64% of games produced three or fewer goals. Hence, the chance for this bet to succeed is 68%.
Correct Score Group Bet 2-1 or 3-1 or 4-1
Lens beat Clermont by the score of 3-1 in the last two meetings between these clubs. In addition, three times Lens won by one of these scores since August in the league while Clermont lost by one of the suggested scores three times as well.
Lens
Lens are having a wonderful season as they are second in the Ligue 1 table with 33 points from ten wins and three draws. The Blood and Gold also have the joint-best defense in the league with PSG. Currently, Lens are on a four-match winning run having won six of their last eight fixtures.
Lens have conceded an average of 0.64 goals per game since the beginning of the season in the league. Lens form stats indicate an average number of goals conceded per game of 0.25 in the last 8 league matches, which is 60.9% lower than their current season’s average.
Clermont
With the 1-1 home draw against Montpellier, Clermont have recorded their second consecutive draw, bringing their winless run to 4 matches in the league. The team has drawn 4 of their last 8 matches in Ligue 1. Having picked up 19 points so far, Clermont are in the tenth position.
