Competition: Ligue 1
Market: Both teams to score
Odds: 4/5 @ BetUS
Two camps who will sign off the 2025/26 Ligue 1 campaign campaign on Sunday night, Lyon will host Lens for what should be an action-packed affair.
Starting with the hosts, watching their extended purple patch come to an abrupt end last time out as they eventually fell to a 2-1 loss away at Toulouse, Lyon will be desperately searching for an immediate response here. Nevertheless, opening their season finale on Sunday night sat just one-point adrift of leapfrogging Lille into bronze medal position, Les Gones are also sat firmly in the driving seat to punch a lucrative Champions League ticket this weekend. Getting May underway with a sensational display as they secured a thrilling 4-2 victory at home against Rennes, Paulo Fonseca’s side will be dreaming of a repeat performance here. Likewise, signing off April with a rollercoaster 3-2 win against Auxerre, Lyon have won each of their other four Ligue 1 appearances. Despite mustering just a sole clean sheet from their last four attempts, Sunday’s hosts have impressed with their clinical displays in the final third. It should be noted, the former Roma boss has seen his Champions League chasers win all of their previous three consecutive Ligue 1 showdowns in front of their own supporters by an aggregate score of 9-4.
As for the visitors, while Lens might have been last seen getting hit with a 2-0 loss at home against Champions League finalists PSG, Pierre Sage’s record-breaking squad have firmly cemented their spot as one of Europe’s ultimate surprise packages this season. Already wrapping up a stunning silver medal finish among France’s elite, the Yellows have embarked on an astonishing domestic romp. Punching their spot in the final of this season’s Coupe de France on April 21st as they stormed their way to a thumping 4-1 victory against Toulouse, Sunday’s guests have rightfully received a string of plaudits from across the continent. Suffering just a sole defeat from any of their last six appearances across all competitions, Lens should also be excited by a dominant recent record against Les Gones. Edging past Lyon back on March 5th as they extended on their iconic Coupe de France campaign, Sage’s side have lost just one of their last six meetings against – a run that stems back to a 2-1 defeat back in February 2023.
