Monaco - Lens betting tips and odds

Monaco are firm favourites in this matchup, and backing them may offer surprising betting value. It’s a very safe bet, though we suppose an upset is not outside the realm of possibility. We wouldn’t count on Lens winning, though.

It would be a minor miracle for Lens to win at Monaco, and they’re likely aware of that. Though risky, such an outcome could bring solid profits thanks to the 4.50 price on most online sportsbooks.

Despite the fact they played at home and were deemed the favourites by most bookmakers online, Monaco recorded a disheartening draw in their most recent matchup with Rennes. The teams were tied at halftime, too, which doesn’t show their current form in a great light.

Lens hit an impasse in their previous away game – the two teams spent most of the match tied, and the final score was 0:0. Such an outcome was in line with the 2.38 betting odds, which described the two teams as more or less evenly matched.

Most online sportsbooks agree that Monaco are more likely to win this match, which goes against what we’ve seen from this matchup last season. Lens recorded a decisive victory on that occasion, which means an upset this Saturday is not impossible.

Thankfully, Lens will be able to bring out their roster in full force, with no players forced to the sidelines due to injury or suspension. They’re still considered underdogs, mind you, but it’s something to consider.

Over 2.5 Goals is easily the safest bet when it comes to this matchup. The best part is that it also maintains a decent betting value, especially if you use the 1.68 odds offered at Unibet.
