We believe that Monaco will succeed in this match. Lens are currently on a long unbeaten run, but today they are facing a strong opponent, who is fighting for the Top-4 spot in the current season. Monegasques will be angry after their defeat in the Champions League, so they are looking to redeem themselves today. Visitors are unlikely to pick up points in this match.

However, we are not expecting an easy win for Monaco today. Clement's men are probably in a poor physical condition after a difficult Champions League qualifier. Lens are looking confident in recent matches, so they should be able to score as well.
