The match is a crucial one, with both teams vying for points to climb the league table. But who will emerge victorious? Let's delve into the stats, key players, and recent form to make a prediction.

Key Players

For Lens, two players stand out as potential game-changers. First up is Florian Sotoca. The attacker has a rating of 7.20 and has made a significant impact with 1 goal from 2 total shots. His passing game also contributes to Lens' attacking prowess, with a total of 33 passes.

Next, we have defender Deiver Andrés Machado Mena. With a rating of 7.25, Machado Mena has been a defensive rock for Lens. His total of 90 passes and 4 key passes shows his ability to contribute to the team's attacking play. His two goals also demonstrate his threat during set-pieces.

On the other side, Toulouse has its own set of key players. Attacker Zakaria Aboukhlal has been in fine form, with a rating of 6.90. He has 3 goals from 7 total shots, with 6 of them being on target. His passing has also been impressive, with a total of 79 passes and 4 key passes.

Defender Rasmus Schmidt Nicolaisen has also been a critical player for Toulouse. With a rating of 6.93, Nicolaisen has made 165 total passes. His defensive contributions have been crucial for Toulouse, and he also poses a threat during set-pieces with 1 goal to his name.

Recent Form

Lens' recent form has been less than impressive, with their last four games ending in LLDL, leaving them at 18th place in the league. On the other hand, Toulouse, currently ranking 12th, has shown a bit more promise with their recent form reading DLDW.

Head-to-Head History

Looking at the head-to-head history, Lens seems to have the upper hand. On May 2, 2023, Lens won 1-0 against Toulouse. Before that, on October 28, 2022, Lens again emerged victorious with a convincing 3-0 win.

Prediction

Given the recent form and head-to-head history, the prediction leans towards a win or draw for Lens. However, with football being the unpredictable game it is, Toulouse might just pull off a surprise. The key players from both sides will undoubtedly have a significant role to play in this thrilling encounter.
