Match Preview

Nice have failed to win in their previous five games, drawing three on the bounce in Ligue 1. At home, they've struggled, failing to win in their last nine games on their own turf.

Lens have won just once in their last three games in Ligue 1. Away from home, they've found things difficult of late, failing to find a win in their last four matches on the road.

Lens secured a 2-0 victory over Nice when they last met back in December. At home, Nice have won five of the last six meetings between the two sides.
