Tip and bets

2.15handicap (-1) to Lens

"Lens" played only one official match in the new season, but looked quite decent and is certainly capable of playing even more aggressively at home. "Panathinaikos" is inferior to the French in terms of player selection, there are plenty of weak points in the team's game, the Greeks lost both previous matches at "Bollard-Delelis". It makes sense in such a situation to count on a confident victory for the favorite.

We think that the guests have no chance. Betting Tip - Asian handicap (-1) on "Lens" . This bet is offered with a coefficient of 2.15

2.09both will score

Bet on total

At home, Lens will undoubtedly rely on attack in an attempt to secure a confident victory, and the visitors have minimal chances to play reliably in defense. At the same time, Panathinaikos has quality players up front, and if necessary, the Greens are able to open up and play attacking football – an exchange of goals will certainly take place.

Bet - both teams to score. This bet is offered for 2.09
