To close the 4th day of Ligue 1, Lens faces Olympique Lyonnais, Sunday September 15 (8:45 p.m.). The Lensois have had a convincing start to the season under the orders of the new coach, Will Still (two wins and a draw against Monaco). The former coach of Stade de Reims, who arrived during the off-season, has kept the 3-5-2 tactical system that has made the Artois team successful for several seasons.
Racing Club de Lens hosts a very fragile OL team defensively. The Lyonnais have already conceded eight goals in the first three league games. Despite the purchase of defender Moussa Niakhaté from Nottingham, the most expensive signing in the club’s history (nearly 32 million euros), OL has left too much defensive space to its opponents. With only one victory before the international break, the Rhone team are looking for points to move up into the top half of the standings.
