Nice vs Lens: A formidable counterweight

Not Marseille, Lyon or Monaco… Lens is a surprise when it is a formidable opponent against PSG in the race to win the French league 2022/23. If counting before tonight's match, they have 11 wins, 3 draws and only 1 loss after 15 rounds.

At this time, coach Haise's teachers and students are temporarily in 2nd place with 36 points and temporarily 5 points behind PSG. Tonight, Lens has a match as a guest on Nice's field and this is a good opportunity for them to find 3 points, thereby continuing to chase PSG.

Contrary to the momentum of the opponent, Nice is no longer the same as last season - the season they finished with 5th place in the table. It is known that Nice played up and down when winning 5, drawing 5 and losing 5 times after 15 rounds, then ranked 9th in the rankings.

At this time, despite playing at home, but with poor preparation in terms of form, Nice is not a reliable choice. It should be emphasized that during the period of the French league's break for the past month, Nice played weakly when there were 2 losses and 1 draw in 3 friendly matches.

- Nice: Sachmichael; Lotomba, Jeb, Dante, Bard; Bodawai, Rosario, Thuram; Papaya, Laborde, Brahimi.

- Lens: Samba; Gradit, Dance, Medina; Frankowski, Fofana, Abdul Samed, Drunk; Sotoca, Said, Coast.
