Lille vs Lens Ligue 1 Match Preview, Team News and Lineups

Lille will play this game without three names who are serving injuries or suspension. Arfa is out due to disciplinary action from the club, Grbic is serving a collarbone injury while Botman is out with muscle injury.

On the other hand, Lens will miss several players in this trip to Lille. They include Wooh, Jean, Kakuta, Haidar and Doucoure.

Looking at the recent H2H information across all competitions, Lille boasts the most wins (3) while Lens has two wins from the last five games. However, that is not enough to gauge these teams ahead of this fixture. Lille’s strong defensive display has played a critical role in their resurgence. We expect nothing short of a victory for the hosts in this Round 32 game of Ligue 1 2021/22 season.

The hosts have 2W and 3D from their last five games while Lens recorded 2W, 1D and 2L in their last five Ligue 1 games. Only a point separates these two sides, so that should be a recipe for a difficult match when they lock horns this Saturday, 16^th April 2022.

Here is our Lille and Lens will likely to lineup against each other in this fixture:

Lille predicted lineup–Jardim, Gudmundson, Xeka, Djalo, Fonte, Celik, Andre, Sanches, Bamba, David and Yilmaz.

Lens predicted lineup–Leca, Gradit, Danso, Medina, Doucoure, Frankowski, da Costa, Fofana, Sotoca, Ganago and Kalimuendo.
