Lens welcome Como to the Stade Bollaert-Delelis on Wednesday 4 November, with kick-off at 8.00pm (UK time) in the Champions League league phase. Our Lens vs Como predictions back the in-form visitors and the goals they bring, with Como scoring freely and Lens leaking at the wrong moments.
Lens have three points from their opening three games, Como six, so the gap is as much about momentum as the table. We run through the best bets, the goal markets and a score prediction below.
Premium Tips
Anthony Eadson has weighed up a meeting of a free-scoring Como and a leaky Lens. As a result, his two bets both lean into the goals this one should bring.
| Premium Tip | Odds | Why we’re backing it | |||||||||||||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Over 3.5 goals | 13/10 (bet365) | This has the makings of a shootout. Como have scored ten goals in their three league-phase games, hitting four twice. Meanwhile, they travel to a Lens side that has conceded seven already and kept nobody out. Lens themselves can play going forward, so there are goals in both teams even if the hosts are short of confidence. The market offers 13/10 about four or more goals. Therefore, backing the game to open up looks a sound way in at Bollaert. | |||||||||||||||||||
| Amadou Haidara to be carded | 16/5 (Betfred) | Amadou Haidara is a combative, ball-winning midfielder for Lens. Also, this is a game that could get stretched and scrappy as the hosts try to stay in it against Como’s movement. Players in his role rack up fouls chasing possession, and with Lens likely to be second best for long spells, the cards should come. The referee will need to manage a high-tempo tie. So, at 16/5, there is real appeal in Haidara seeing yellow. 18+ only. Please gamble responsibly. GambleAware — gambleaware.org · Odds correct at time of publishing.  How Lens go into the gameLens lost 3-0 at Club Brugge last time out. That chastening night followed a 2-0 home defeat by Sporting CP. The bright spot came earlier in the campaign, a 3-2 win away at Slavia Prague. However, back-to-back blanks have knocked the stuffing out of them.That leaves Lens short of goals and leaking them, with just three scored and seven conceded in three games. Home comfort has been in short supply too, with the hosts beaten and shut out on their only outing at Bollaert so far. How Como go into the gameComo arrive in France off a 4-1 home demolition of Manchester United. Moise Kean leads a line that has plundered ten goals in three games. Before that, they lost 3-2 away at Feyenoord. Their other outing was a 4-1 home win over RB Leipzig. The caveat is travel. Como have been irresistible at home, winning both and scoring eight. However, their one away trip ended in defeat, so there is a question to answer on the road even against a struggling Lens side.  Lens vs Como head-to-headThese clubs have no history together, with no record of a previous meeting between Lens and Como. That leaves the focus squarely on form, and right now Como are in far the better shape. Lens vs Como predictions & betting tips
Lens vs Como score predictionEverything points to an away win here. Lens are low on confidence and leaking goals, while Como travel with the division’s form attack. Even so, a tricky road record should not stop them taking the points. Score prediction: Lens 1-3 Como. Read more:
