The Lensois receive, on Friday, a team from Reims which has nothing more to play for, and have the opportunity to temporarily come back to three points behind the Parisian leader.
New runner-up to Paris Saint-Germain after their victory against OM, RC Lens is launched in its final sprint towards a first qualification in the Champions League since the 2002-2003 edition. Four days from the end of the championship, the Sang et Or are firmly on the podium and even have the opportunity to get closer to PSG since a success would bring them to three points behind the leader, who receives Ajaccio on Saturday (9 p.m.).
For that, it will be necessary to get rid of Rémois, who are still eye-catching against the big guns of Ligue 1, even if they have nothing more to play for this season (10th), with assured maintenance but a European qualification that is too far away. Deprived for this match of Kamory Doumbia and Thibault De Smet (injured), the men of Will Still will be able to take advantage of a Bollaert-Delelis stadium a little more hollow than usual, since two groups of supporters, KSO and the Red Tigers, were sanctioned for using smoke bombs against Monaco on April 22.
