PSG lead Lens 47-24 alongside 23 draws. The Parisians have won six of the previous seven encounters but only two of their last six in Lens.
Home Comfort for Lens
Lens have been in incredible home form this season, winning 16 of their 17 matches at Stade Felix Bollaert-Delelis. The only blip was an unlucky 3-2 defeat to Monaco.
The northern club have been in the Ligue 1 title race but two recent draws on the road severely hurt their chances. They had 2.76-0.25 xG in a 3-3 draw at Brest and conceded late in a 1-1 draw at Nice.
Pierre Sage’s side bounced back to beat Nantes 1-0 thanks to Mezian Soares’ 79th minute strike. It was a massive goal for the 16-year-old in his first senior appearance.
PSG Poised to Win Ligue 1
Paris Saint-Germain are riding high after reaching the Champions League final. They beat Bayern Munich 5-4 in the semi-final first leg and earned a 1-1 draw in Germany to go through.
Luis Enrique made wholesale changes in a 1-0 win against Brest. Désiré Doué came off the bench to score a late winner as they ended with 23-3 shots and 1.49-0.17 xG.
The Parisians maintained their six point lead in Ligue 1 and will surely claim a fifth successive title.
Enrique was practically celebrating after the victory, saying: “We are champions! I can say it, can't I? It's 99.9% sure. And I think we deserve it.”
“We still have 2 matches to play, but we have a big advantage with the goal difference. Mathematically we still need one more point, but I think we are champions.”
