Lens is coming into this match in a difficult patch, having lost their last three games and drawn the two before that. They are struggling to find a win at the moment. Nantes, on the other hand, has had a mixed run with a couple of wins, a loss, and two draws in their recent matches, showing they can be a bit unpredictable.

Looking at recent meetings between these two, most of their games have ended in draws, often without any goals. Their last match was an exception, where Nantes won in a game that had a few goals. Given both teams' recent form, this could be another tight and closely fought match.
