Lens did not miss their first match in the championship last weekend, defeating SCO in Angers thanks to a goal from Wesley Saïd (0-1). This is in line with an encouraging preparation marked by six victories in eight outings (one defeat and one draw).
Under the orders of Will Still, the squad has changed little for the moment – so the automatisms are maintained in the collective of Sang et Or who should not however be too wary of Greeks capable of transcending themselves. If they missed their debut on the national scene, surprised at home by Asteras Tripoli (0-1), the Athenians had played a nasty trick on the Marseillais last summer during the preliminary rounds of the C1.
