Betting suggestion:

The most likely scenario for this challenge is the occurrence of some goals. It's true that a home-sided tendency is expected, however, both teams are known for providing entertaining football matches, where offensive play takes center stage. It's worth noting that both Lens and Marseille have great quality in the attacking sector. With that said, considering these factors, betting in favor of the "Over 2.25 Goals" market is a good option.
