Strasbourg vs. Lens Analysis
Strasbourg needs to build on strong start
There’s a lot to like about Le Racing’s start to the season. But one thing Strasbourg need to see its Ligue 1 stats improve is with goal scoring. Le Racing has produced fewer goals than every team in the league except the bottom four teams.
Key Injuries
Strasbourg midfielder Ibrahima Sissoko is questionable. Goalkeeper Eiji Kawashima and Polish defender Karol Fila remain out with injuries as well.
Betting Trends to Know
- Strasbourg has recorded two shutouts.
- Le Racing has seen three of its six matches go over 2.5 goals.
- Strasbourg has scored two or more goals three times.
Lens has yet to play up to its standards
The Blood and Gold certainly aren’t off to the start they hoped for. Making Strasbourg vs Lens betting picks will show the Blood and Gold have allowed three goals to Brest and Paris-Saint Germain. Lens hope to stop its offensive production while keeping him in a more consistent backline.
Deiver Machado and Morgan Guillavogia have each scored twice for the Blood and Gold. Lens has produced and expected goals of less than one in three of its six matches.
Key Injuries
Lens gas a number of players injured, including Jimmy Cabot (knee), David Costa (shoulder), Wuilker Farinez (knee), and Massadio Haidara (thigh).
Betting Trends to Know

- The Blood and Gold have yet to record a shutout.
- Four of Lens’ six matches have gone over 2.5 goals.
Strasbourg vs. Lens Betting Picks
Ligue 1 scores show that Lens has had a difficult time stopping their opponents from scoring the season. The blood and gold are hoping a Champions League draw with Sevilla will give them some momentum. Well, it won’t be an easy road ahead; Lens will find a way to score a tight victory.
Le Racing hasn’t been the most efficient finishing team this season. But Strasbourg vs Lens betting picks show Lens’ back line has been vulnerable to attack. This game should produce at least three goals.
Anyone making Ligue 1 predictions against the spread would be best served by betting Lens +0.5. That will provide some protection in place of the tie. Both Ligue 1 teams would like to get three points, but neither has finished consistently enough to guarantee success.
Strasbourg vs. Lens Prediction
- Ligue 1 Pick: Lens +128
