Lens to take control of the tie
The Lens team have lost just one of their last 13 home games in a major European competition, with 9 wins and 3 draws.
Lens are in good form now, as they have won three consecutive games in Ligue 1. They will aim to take this form in the upcoming first leg fixture.
Looking at the head-to-head, Lens and SC Freiburg will meet in a competitive match for the first time. Meanwhile, Les Sang et Or lost just one of their last six games against German opposition in a major European competition, with 2 wins and 3 draws.
There are no overwhelming favourites. Yet, based on what Lens have shown in the past year, they should do enough to avoid a defeat against the German side.
Bet 1: RC Lens to win & over 1.5 2.14 with Bet9ja
RC Lens to find the back of the net
Freiburg have conceded three goals in each of their past three games.
SC Freiburg finished behind West Ham in their Europa League group. However, they will have to face a tricky Ligue 1 side, who were not lucky enough to progress to the next stage of the UCL.
While the Germans have struggled to find their rhythm, Lens have racked up three consecutive wins, scoring a total of six goals.
We are settling for RC Lens to score twice in this RC Lens vs SC Freiburg predictions piece.

Fast start in Lens
Games involving Lens have produced at least a goal in the first half in three of the last four times. Meanwhile, there has been a 100% record in the last four games involving Freiburg.

Both teams to find the back of the net

Lens can score on their good day and the same can be said for the German side. Considering the nearly two-month break before this knockout stage, the two might be willing to go for it.
