Lens manager Pierre Sage faces a mixed selection dilemma as he prepares his squad to host the league leaders.
On a positive note, the midfield options receive a significant boost with the return of Adrien Thomasson and Mamadou Sangaré, who have both fully served their respective domestic suspensions.
However, defensive discipline remains an issue as Saud Abdulhamid is ruled out while serving a red card suspension.
The backline is further depleted by long-term casualties, with centre-back Jonathan Gradit still recovering from a leg fracture and experienced goalkeeper Régis Gurtner out with a severe hamstring tear.
Furthermore, Sage faces late fitness tests in attack, as both Allan Saint-Maximin and remain highly doubtful while nursing minor physical knocks.

Paris Saint-Germain faces a severe injury crisis ahead of their decisive trip to Stade Bollaert-Delelis, with manager Luis Enrique missing seven players.
The latest casualty is midfielder Lee Kang-in, who is sidelined with a fresh left ankle injury sustained during the recent match against Brest.
