The great difference between Lens and OM

Sixteen home games: fourteen wins. RC Lens, currently third in Ligue 1 Uber Eats, are having a very good season at the Stade Bollaert-Delelis and are logically at the top of the table for home games (43 points). Although they have not performed as well away from home (23 points), the northern club has the highest differential between home and away points (+20). Stade Rennais FC (+19) and LOSC (+12) follow.

Long-awaited clash

In contrast, Olympique de Marseille, who have been struggling to hold on to second place on the home table, have taken 39 points from 16 games on the road, equalling their best-ever tally from 1971-72, 2008-09 and 2021-22. This has given them the most negative differential in the league between home and away points (-11). And this clash of trends between RC Lens and Olympique de Marseille will be road-tested when the sides clash at the Stade Bollaert on 6 May.
