RC Lens vs Sevilla Prediction 12.12.2023

• Competition: Champions League
• Date: 12.12.2023
• Kickoff: 18:45 UTC / 19:45 CET
• Venue: Stade Bollaert-Delelis (Lens)

With a convincing defeat in London against Arsenal 6-0, Lens effectively lost all chances to reach the knockout phase of the Champions League. PSV Eindhoven has 3 points more than the French club, which is achievable on paper, but when we take into account the fact that PSV has a better head-to-head score, the matter is settled. The ultimate motive for them in this last match is to secure 3rd place and placement in the knockout phase of the Europa League. Last weekend, Lens played 0-0 against Montpellier on the road.

Another defeat by Sevilla in LaLiga has totally deepened the crisis that one of the best Spanish teams is going through. In addition to being in the lower part of LaLiga, they are also on the threshold of elimination from the Champions League. In the 5 matches played, they took only 2 points, so there is very little chance that they will reach at least the Europa League, a competition in which they are the best club ever with 6 trophies. Sevilla must win this match and with so many injured and absent players it would be a real feat.

Lens vs Sevilla pick: LENS TO WIN

Lens has lost only once at home in the last 22 matches. This is information that does not leave anyone indifferent when choosing the winner in one of their matches at this stadium. Against Sevilla, 1 point will be enough for them to secure a place in the knockout phase of the Europa League, and they will especially like the fact that Sevilla will have to play something more risky. As already mentioned, the club from Andalusia has big problems with sidelined players and it will be difficult to get a positive result here, all the odds above 2 on the victory of the home team seem like very good odds and there is value
