Lens vs Arsenal prediction, odds and preview

Arsenal’s Champions League return takes another stop as they face Lens in their second group game on Tuesday evening.

The Premier League side will travel to France as they look to make it two wins from two games in the competition and continue their fine form to the start of the season.

Arsenal dispatched PSV in their opening game of the competition as they recorded a 4-0 win at home two weeks ago.

Bukayo Saka, Leandro Trossard, Gabriel Jesus and Martin Odegaard were all on the scoresheet in the game as David Raya also made his European debut.

Lens on the other side played out a 1-1 draw with Sevilla in their opener away from home with Angelo Fulgini cancelling out Lucas Ocampos’ early strike.

The draw leaves Lens in second position with one point, just like Sevilla while PSV are bottom of the group with Arsenal at the top.

Lens know the game game against Arsenal will be much tougher compared to their meeting with Sevilla but would be counting on their home crowd to see off the challenge from the English side.

Since beating PSV, Mikel Arteta’s side have drawn one and won two of their last three games scoring seven goals and conceding two.

Lens also have two wins from their last two games since the draw against Sevilla and Tuesday clash promises to be an interesting match up.

The game is scheduled for a 19:00 GMT kickoff.
