Lens finished their schedule before the seven-week break with a surprising run of victories, putting together their best run of form in the French top flight since winning the club’s lone Ligue 1 title. They had only lost one competitive game all season. The 1998 Champions have struggled at times since then, but they occupied second place before Christmas and are now five points ahead of third-place Rennes in the long-distance contest for a position in the group stage of the Champions League for the upcoming season.

The expensively formed Nice squad has fallen short of preseason expectations thus far, and as a result, they are currently ninth in the standings with just six goals and two victories from their first seven home games this season. Prior to Qatar 2022’s intervention, Lucien Favre’s team had gone through their last seven competitive games unbeaten to surge into the top half of the standings. However, they are now 16 points behind their less wealthy visitors from the North-East.
