After dropping two points in a 2-2 draw with Strasbourg, Lens will look to give fans yet another reason for celebration when they take on Auxerre on Saturday afternoon.
Lens are six points behind league leaders PSG, but the team’s main goal is to book a place in the Champions League.
The good news for the hosts is that midfielder Salis Abdul Samed is back from suspension, but all Adam Buksa, Jimmy Cabot, and Wuilker Farinez should miss out with injuries.
Yaya-Kader Fofana remains on the sidelines through illness.
Christophe Pelissier’s troops, on the other hand, are on a four-game losing run in the French top flight.
Auxerre experienced all sorts of problems at the back in a 5-0 loss to Toulouse, and we do not believe that they are capable of spoiling Lens’ party at Stade Bollaert-Delelis.
Both Joly and Pellenard are sidelined with injuries for the away team.
