Premium Tips

Anthony Eadson sides with the visitors despite their patchy away record.

Premium TipOddsWhy we’re backing it
Kyllian Antonio to win 2+ fouls19/20 (10bet)Kyllian Antonio has won at least two fouls in every one of his four Ligue 1 appearances for Lens this season, drawing nine in total. He runs at defenders and invites contact, and Troyes have lost four in a row, so they are likely to be stretched and forced into challenges. 10bet are one of only two bookmakers pricing this market, and they offer 19/20 on Antonio winning two or more fouls.
Lens to win to nil11/4 (bet365)Troyes have drawn a blank in each of their last three outings and have scored just four goals all season, numbers that point to another quiet afternoon in front of goal. Lens have looked far more dangerous going forward, and while their away form has been mixed, keeping out a Troyes attack this blunt is well within reach. At 11/4, Lens to win to nil rates as the standout play, with the hosts yet to show they can trouble a settled back line.

How Troyes go into the game

Troyes have endured a miserable run, losing their last four games and failing to score in each of the last three, all 2-0 defeats, most recently at home to Marseille.

Second-bottom on four points, Anthony Eadson notes that Troyes have managed just four goals all season and are yet to win at home, where they have taken a single point from three games.

How Lens go into the game

Lens come in on a high after beating Lyon 2-1 at home last time out, a result that left them 10th on seven points.

Anthony Eadson accepts Lens have been inconsistent, and they are still without an away win this season, but they carry far more of a goal threat than their hosts, with 11 scored to Troyes’ four.
