Lens vs Nice Soccer Betting Tips – Ligue 1
Will RC Lens be able to continue this weekend? After its victory at the Stade Vélodrome against Olympique de Marseille in a late match (1-0), the Lensois club welcomes OGC Nice to the Bollaert Stadium this Saturday. Only three days after their victory, the Lensois will want to confirm and chain a second consecutive success for the first time since … September! Indeed, despite their good run for their return to the elite (7th at mid-season), Franck Haise’s men have not managed to win two games in a row since the 5th day. Will this duel against the Niçois be the right one?
In great difficulty, the Riviera club continues to downgrade in the standings, and the dismissal of Patrick Vieira will not have created any electroshock. In constant progression for a few seasons, qualified in the Europa League last season, the Nice are 14th with 23 points at mid-season, and the red zone (15 points with Nîmes) is now closer than the European places (32 points with Marseille ). With only 1 victory in the last 10 days, will Nice wake up in the North or will it continue its slow descent into hell?

Lens vs Nice Soccer Betting Tips
Despite an honourable overall record away from Ligue 1, Nice is in such a downward spiral that we cannot see the end of it. The Aiglons will certainly end up finding their way back to victory, but it does not seem wise to us to look for it at all costs, so we are counting on a Lensois success which has just beaten OM!
