Lyon vs Lens prediction

Lyon, under the management of Paulo Fonseca, have enjoyed some extreme high periods and extreme low periods throughout this campaign. They are sitting a point outside of the top three, though, after succumbing to a 2-1 defeat against Toulouse at Stadium de Toulouse in their most recent outing last weekend.

Lens' most recent outing saw them beaten 2-0 by Paris Saint-Germain, eventually ending the title race. The northerners have done well this season but will feel they had a real and genuine shot at the title this year, had it not been for some extremely frustrating slip ups through the spring. 

Lens will want to finish a memorable season well but, with home advantage and potential UEFA Champions League football on the line, Lyon should still be sided with here. 

Lyon vs Lens tip: Lyon to win
