Lens vs Reims Betting Tips - Lens to Win/Under 2.5 Goals

Lens make their return to Stade Bollaert-Delelis on Friday looking for a fourth win in five matches after a narrow 1:0 victory against Saint Etienne last weekend. 

Will Still´s men endured a tough February, losing four successive matches, however, they appear to have turned a corner, with three 1:0 wins, including a vital victory in Mareille, picked up in the past month. 

While the hosts have failed to find any kind of consistency in their home results this season, Lens did claim 1:0 victories in both of their last two home matches against Rennes and the aforementioned Saint Etienne. 

Low-scoring outcomes have been frequent, with eight of Lens last ten games seeing under 2.5 goals scored. All eight games did NOT see BTTS, suggesting a strong likelihood of a tight contest this weekend. 

Reims make the trip to Stade Bollaert-Delelis after a narrow 1:0 home reversal against Strasbourg last week. A dismal run of form has seen Luka Elsner´s men lose seven of their last nine matches, with only four points picked up during that period.

Going back a little further, Reims have now failed to win 16 of their last 17 Ligue 1 matches, and now find themselves inside the relegation zone with just six games to play. 

On the road, Les Rouges et Blancs have lost four of their last six matches, and given their form this year, appear unlikely to pick up anything from Friday´s fixture. 

Lens are hardly the most reliable side, but I expect the hosts to pick up a third successive home victory in a likely low-scoring Ligue 1 affair.

I'm putting my money on the home win, with a second stake suggested on the under 2.5 goal line.
