Lens have endured a mixed start to the new campaign, losing two of their first four matches. They fell to Lyon on opening day and most recently suffered a 2-0 defeat against champions PSG. Victories against Brest and Le Havre have steadied them slightly, but consistency remains a concern.
Franck Haise’s side have struggled in big games and now face one of their toughest rivals. Lens have also failed to beat Lille in their last six meetings, making this clash an uphill task.

Lille look like early contenders this season, sitting second after an unbeaten start. Paulo Fonseca’s men have won three straight league games, including a dominant 7-1 thrashing of Lorient, followed by a 2-1 win over Toulouse.
While their defense hasn’t been perfect—just one clean sheet in four—Les Dogues have made up for it with their potent attack. They’ve won the last three head-to-head meetings with Lens and remain unbeaten in six.
MatchPlug Prediction For Lens vs Lille
Lens have been vulnerable against stronger opposition and history is against them in this fixture. Lille’s attack has been clinical, and their momentum should carry into this derby. Expect goals, but the visitors have the edge.
Final Prediction: Lille to win
