Strasbourg analysis

After 6 matches, Strasbourg shows a positive goal difference: in fact, the team has scored 12 goals and conceded 10.

Strasbourg, with a ball possession of 49.67% per game on average, is not the team that imposes its game, and rather prefers a tactic devoted to waiting and counterattacks. However, in the match against Lens of 2024/2025 they will have to do something more, try to maintain possession of the ball and attack the opponent's goal with more continuity.

Increasingly prominent within the team, Diego Moreira, a defender who arrived for this season, did another fine performance in the last duel of the club. In the match against Olympique Marseille, he was a fundamental piece, providing great security for the whole team and showing he is already fully adapted to the new club.

Best goalscorer from Strasbourg

There are always individualities that stand out in a squad and in the team's attack, Sebastian Nanasi has held that position so far in the competition. Serving Strasbourg with 3 goals this season, the Midfielder has been a key player in winning triumphs.

Lens

The Lens team with 10 points currently occupies the 6th place of the leaderboard, being in the qualifying place for the UEFA Conference League Qualifiers, with a campaign of 2 wins, 4 draws, and 0 losses.

The team has the same number of points that the LOSC Lille who holds the 5th place in the 7th round.

Lens analysis

After round 6 of Ligue 1 we count 5 goals scored by Lens and 2 conceded.

It seems that Lens has adopted a strategic defensive plan in their recent matches, as they have conceded an elevated number of fouls, exceeding the league average. Despite this, they have received a low number of yellow cards, below the league average of three. This suggests that they are committing fouls deliberately in critical areas of the field to disrupt the opposition's attacking moves and hinder their momentum.

Chances of winning against Lens who playing away has a balance of 1 win, 0 losses, and 2 draws in the Ligue 1, are very slim.
