Curiously, the head‑to‑head history favours Lens, since in the last 7 matches they register 4 wins and 3 losses.

Analysis Marseille

The home team is currently in the 2nd position of the league, with 46 points won, after 15 wins, 4 draws and 5 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in an away match against Auxerre, by (3‑0). In the last match, they won in a home match against Nantes, by (2‑0). Interestingly enough, this is a team that has had better results in away matches than at home, since they have won 27 points in away matches and only 19 at their stadium. In the last 10 home league matches Marseille has a record of 5 wins, 3 draws and 2 losses, so they have won 18 points out of 30 possible.

In this competition, they haven’t lost any of the last 7 home matches. They haven't been very strong defensively, since they have suffered goals in 8 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored frequently, since they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches for this competition. There is a tendency for goals in their home matches, as 12 of the last 12 for this competition have ended with Over 1,5 goals. In 24 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 9 times, but have turned the score around in 4.

Olympique Marseille go into this match motivated after a 2-0 win over Nantes: the team's goals were scored by Amine Gouiri and Mason Greenwood. The home side usually play in a 3-4-3 tactical system, giving more importance to a style of play of constant transitions. In this system, the three most advanced players are Mason Greenwood, Amine Gouiri and Adrien Rabiot. The team focuses on the right flank in its offensive actions, exploiting Luis Henrique's agility and vision to create imbalances in the opposing defense. Out of this game is Pierre-Emile Højbjerg due to punishment.

Confirmed Lineup: Gerónimo Rulli, Quentin Merlin, Amar Dedić, Leonardo Balerdi, Bilal Nadir, Geoffrey Kondogbia, Adrien Rabiot, Ismaël Bennacer, Valentin Rongier, Pierre-Emile Højbjerg, Amine Gouiri.
Coach: André Villas-Boas.

Analysis Lens

The away team is currently in the 8th position of the league, with 33 points won, after 9 wins, 6 draws and 9 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in an away match against Nantes, by (3‑1). In the last match, they lost in a home match against Le Havre, by (3‑4). This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since they have won 19 points in away matches and 14 at their stadium, with 13 goals scored and 16 goals conceded at home, against 16 goals scored and 13 goals conceded in away matches. In the last 10 away league matches Lens has a record of 4 wins, 3 draws and 3 losses, so they have won 15 points out of 30 possible. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In their away matches there is a tendency for few goals, since 8 of the last 12 matches for this competition have ended with Under 2,5 goals. In 24 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 10 times and have only turned the score around in 1.

Lens come into this match demotivated after a 3-4 defeat at Le Havre: the team's goals were scored by Neil El Aynaoui, Ruben Aguilar and Florian Sotoca. The visiting team usually plays in a 5-3-2 formation, with Wesley Said and Florian Sotoca as the two main attacking players. When they go on the offensive, they usually do so down the left flank, exploiting the depth provided by full-back Deiver Machado. Out for this game are Adrien Thomasson, Angelo Fulgini, M'Bala Nzola and Facundo Medina, who are all out with injuries, as well as Denis Petric, Martín Satriano and Rémy Labeau Lascary, who are all out with fitness problems.

Confirmed Lineup: Mathew Ryan, Ruben Aguilar, Abdulay Juma Bah, Deiver Machado, Jonathan Gradit, Malang Sarr, A. Diouf, Neil El Aynaoui, Nampalys Mendy, Wesley Saïd, Florian Sotoca.
