As Montpellier and Lens meet again, the memory of Montpellier's 2-0 win in their Ligue 1 face-off from 5 months ago still lingers. Montpellier is enjoying a strong run, with victories over Toulouse and Monaco, looking to add another win to their streak as they face Lens. However, their defensive frailties have been apparent as they have been conceding goals for twenty consecutive matches now.

After their recent win against Angers, Lens approach this match with renewed confidence in the same manner.

This Ligue 1 match offers a platform for Montpellier and Lens’s goal-scorers to step up and leave their mark on the contest. Montpellier’s Teji Savanier and top finisher Arnaud Nordin have played important roles in ensuring their attack, under Jean-Louis Gasset’s guidance, remains effective. Nordin leads Montpellier’s scoring charts in Ligue 1 this season with four goals, as Savanier continues to lead their creative efforts in the tournament with five assists. Montpellier have also relied on Akor Adams, Mousa Al-Taamari and Modibo Sagnan to energize their attack through key shots and passes.

Meanwhile, Lens’s attacking options, under Will Still’s management, have been bolstered by Przemyslaw Frankowski and M'Bala Nzola, the team’s top scorer, both of whom have contributed crucial goals and assists. With five goals in Ligue 1, Nzola is Lens’s top scorer in the league, while Thomasson remains their top assist provider in the competition with four. Deiver Machado, Remy Labeau Lascary and Wesley Said have made their presence felt as well, chipping in with decisive contributions in attack.
