Lens desperately need points on Wednesday, Jan 27 at 9:00 PM in the League Stage. With the team sitting in the bottom three, this is quickly becoming a must-win situation.

Liverpool come into this fixture in good form (3W 0D 0L recently). Lens travel in mixed form (1W 0D 1L), which may hand the initiative to the hosts. Liverpool won their last outing, while Lens suffered defeat — home advantage backed by momentum.

Verdict: The gulf in league position makes Liverpool clear favorites, but Lens have shown they can grind out results. Expect Liverpool to take the points, potentially without being at their best.
