Lens:
The team did not start well on their return from Ligue 1, after losing in their debut against Nice (2-1). In that game he competed despite his limitations, demonstrating it by getting ahead on the scoreboard at 11 minutes into the first half. Then he couldn’t handle the process and ended up losing it in the second half.
Now he will seek to take advantage of the local factor to stop the most powerful squad in the French league. It will not be an easy task, but he will try to fight as far as he can.
The logic indicates that Lens moves back the lines from the initial whistle, trying to group many men in defense not to give up a goal in the first 25 ‘minutes of play.
In attack he will not have many situations, but some will be available through specific actions and exploiting the famous stopped ball (corner or free kick close to the area).
PSG:
The Parisian team comes to this duel with a lot of football shooting after playing 3 highly competitive matches for the Champions League. A few weeks have passed since the defeat against Bayern Munich and the mood of the squad has improved more and more.
In any case, coach Tuchel has the obligation to motivate his players and get them to change the chip to get fully into Ligue 1.
Logic indicates that the former Dortmund coach uses his main figures, such as Neymar and Mbappé, even though the latter has been with France playing the Nations League. Special mention for the Argentine Di Maria, who recovered his best level in the «Lisbon Bubble».
In the end it is expected that PSG can manage the times and score 2 or 3 goals in favor if he steps on the accelerator.
PREDICTION: Paris SG to win @ 1,74
