THE PREDICTION
Last weekend saw Lens mere minutes away from a fourth successive win in what has been an excellent start to the season for the promoted side but an 87th-minute Nimes equaliser meant they had to settle for a point. They now meet another team who have made a bright start to the season in the form of Saint-Etienne although Claude Puel’s side put in their worst display of the season last weekend in a disappointing 0-3 reverse to Rennes. The boss will be demanding a response from his players while Lens will be looking to get back to winning ways themselves so this match has all the hallmarks of both teams finding the net.
