In the seventh round match of the French championship, Lens will play Troyes on home soil. The game promises to be an interesting one as both teams are in good form. Lens are in clear third place, just two points behind leaders PSG and Marseille. This team is still unbeaten, and the streak stretches back to the end of last season. In five of the six games this season, Lens have scored and allowed their opponents to score. Last round, Lens drew with Reims (1-1), and before that they beat Monaco (4-1), Rennes (2-1) and Lorient (5-2). Lens' attacking play is of a high standard, but their defensive performance is not always solid. Troyes face something similar. This does not prevent Troyes from playing some similarly productive football. Last round, this team drew with Rennes (1-1), but before that they beat Monaco (4-2) and Angers (3-1). They started the season poorly, though, losing three in a row, conceding ten goals in that span. At the moment, their defensive side is struggling, but their defensive failures are being compensated for by their energetic attacking performance. Last season, Lens and Troyes head to head matches were high-scoring . The Bloody Gold were victorious in both rounds: 4-0 at home and 3-1 away. Troyes are now sitting in 11th place in the standings, trying to make up for their losses in the opening rounds. And they are well-positioned to climb up the table if they can shake off Lens' remarkable unbeaten streak. It will be difficult to do so, because Lens have not lost at home since March. In that time, they have six wins and two draws at home.
