LEN Vs NIC Fantasy Team Probable Playing 11 And Match Report: Lens finally address their slump to revive their top 4 aspirations.
Failing to win in three matches on a spin, Lens needed things to change and change fast for them. And although the side’s 1-0 win against Marseille was by no means a convincing win, the side will be glad they were at long last able to record three points.
Easing their way past the finishing line, Lens will be aspiring to emulate that fight and character today as well. With the club’s tanking form having seen it slip into 7th spot, the five point deficit between them and the top four can only be wiped away with a string of wins.
And in Nice, they have the ideal opponent to muster up a second win on the spin.
LEN Vs NIC Fantasy Probable Winner
Nice are unable to arrest their slump and having surrendered, the club will slip to another defeat today.
