However, this game will hardly follow the pattern of the PSV rout because of how stubborn Lens can be at home. Here are three predictions we have assigned this match.<\/p>\n<h3>Prediction 1: Arsenal to win<\/h3>\n<p>Franck Haise's side suffered four defeats in their first five Ligue 1 games, but have recovered to stay unbeaten in their last three games ahead of the visit of the Gunners. Nonetheless, their new found form may not be enough to deny an Arsenal side who have strung five wins in their last six games. We are well aware of how difficult it is for visiting teams to pick up all three points at the Stade Bollaert-Delelis, still, we back Arsenal to earn a hard-fought win.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_130805\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-130805\" style=\"width: 850px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img class=\"size-full wp-image-130805\" src=\"https:\/\/goalballlive.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/ICONSPORT_AP-12559787.jpg\" alt=\"Arsenal players celebrate goal ahead of UCL clash with Lens\" width=\"850\" height=\"560\" srcset=\"https:\/\/goalballlive.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/ICONSPORT_AP-12559787.jpg 850w, https:\/\/goalballlive.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/ICONSPORT_AP-12559787-300x198.jpg 300w, https:\/\/goalballlive.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/ICONSPORT_AP-12559787-768x506.jpg 768w, https:\/\/goalballlive.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/ICONSPORT_AP-12559787-20x13.jpg 20w, https:\/\/goalballlive.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/ICONSPORT_AP-12559787-80x53.jpg 80w, https:\/\/goalballlive.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/ICONSPORT_AP-12559787-486x320.jpg 486w, https:\/\/goalballlive.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/ICONSPORT_AP-12559787-60x40.jpg 60w, https:\/\/goalballlive.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/ICONSPORT_AP-12559787-150x99.jpg 150w, https:\/\/goalballlive.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/ICONSPORT_AP-12559787-696x459.jpg 696w, https:\/\/goalballlive.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/ICONSPORT_AP-12559787-638x420.jpg 638w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" title=\"\"><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-130805\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Credit: Icon Sport<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3>Prediction 2: Both teams to score<\/h3>\n<p>For one, Arsenal have scored in all ten games this season, a run dating back to the Community Shield clash with City on 6 August. Also, Lens have netted in six of the eight g toames they've played so far this campaign. It is important to point out that Arsenal have been involved in both sides scoring match on five occasions out of ten this season, while Haise's men have also done this in five out of the eight matches they've played. Bearing the above stats in mind, we're backing both sides to score here.<\/p>\n<h3>Prediction 3: Over 2.5 total goals<\/h3>\n<p>We've already established that Lens have played eight games; four of those ended with at least 3 goals. And for Arsenal, six of their ten games ended with over 2.5 scores. It shows these teams can score and also concede goals, this makes us anticipate a high-scoring affair on Tuesday night.<\/p>\n<h2>Lens vs Arsenal head-to-head<\/h2>\n<p>This game will be the first time both teams meet in a competition game.
