Lens - Nantes betting tips and odds

A quick look at the betting odds with some of the biggest bookmakers online is enough to tell you who the favourites are. Priced at 1.67, a home win seems the obvious choice. An upset is not quite impossible, mind you, which adds a small degree of risk but is ultimately food increasing profits.

Though it may not be particularly attractive to punters, this match is at least easy to predict. Anything but a Home Win is probably wishful thinking for Nantes, whose victory has been priced at a hefty 5.35.

Having successfully kept their guard up both at the halftime mark and the end of the match, Lens will be pretty satisfied with their last round’s result (HOME_LAST_ROUND_AWAY). An away draw as this one will be sure to motivate them this Saturday.

Nantes’s latest match against Bordeaux ended in a resounding success. The first half did not go their way, but they managed to quickly equalize as the game progressed and end the match with a decisive 5:3 home win.

Lens’s attackers don’t seem to need a home-field advantage when it comes to scoring. With 8 goals in their last three away games, it’s hard to find issues with their attacking play.

Results and standings notwithstanding, Nantes have run into some defensive issues in this stretch of the Ligue 1. In the past 3 matches, they allowed more than 5 goals to their opponents, which may be cause for concern for their supporters.

The hosts are going into this match as favourites, but any ambitions of Europa League qualification seem hard to fulfil. We’re very close to the season’s finish line.

We already saw these two teams clash this season, and Nantes carried off a narrow home win. The roles are reversed this time, however, and the betting odds are marking Lens as somewhat more likely to win.

A Both Teams to Score bet is a very easy choice to make. A quick look at the two teams’ histories and statistics reveals that this match a very strong candidate to confirm the BTTS market.
