France Ligue 1
Date: Saturday, October 3, 2024
Starts at 16pm UK / 17pm CET
Location: PStade Bollaert-Delelis (Lens).

Lens have a difficult game this weekend as they face Saint Etienne, who have started the season well.

The venues also got off to a positive start considering they were recently promoted and are in sixth place. After losing the first game of the season, you have to give credit to the team that is already undefeated in the last 4 games. A three-match winning streak was snapped last weekend when Lens walked away from Nimes 1-1, but the club will be more than satisfied with their start to the campaign and, of course, that includes winning. the PSG.

Saint Etienne were undefeated, but that ended last weekend when they lost to Rennes and lost 3-0. The club sit fourth on 11 points and just two behind the leaders but are now two games unbeaten after drawing 2-2 at Nantes the week before.
