How the crowd called it
Why we called it
Newly promoted Le Mans, back in the top flight after sixteen years, are still winless but competitive, drawing 1-1 at Nice with Adil Bourabaa scoring and Louis Mafouta partnering him up front. Lens have lost two in a row (0-2 at Marseille, 0-1 at home to Lorient) and Toppmoller's defence is decimated: Nawrocki and Udol injured, Sagnan suspended, Baidoo and Todibo not ready, though Gradit is back in the squad. Classified as a clear but not overwhelming favourite: Lens' attacking quality through Thauvin, Sima and Odsonne Edouard should edge it by one goal, but the makeshift back line concedes.
