Lens - Como

On 4 November 2026, Lens welcome Como to Stade Bollaert-Delelis for their Champions League matchday 4 encounter. The hosts arrive looking to steady their European campaign following a difficult run in the competition, including a recent 3-0 defeat against Club Brugge. The expected XI for Lens features a forward line of Franjo Ivanovic, Florian Sotoca, and Florian Thauvin, supported by a defensive unit anchored by Jean-Clair Todibo. They will need to rediscover the defensive solidity shown in their domestic victory over Lyon to contain a visiting side currently riding a wave of momentum.

Como travel to France in excellent form, having secured four consecutive league victories, including a clinical 3-1 win over Torino. Their Champions League journey has been varied, highlighted by a commanding 4-1 victory against RB Leipzig earlier in the group stage. With Nico Paz and Maximo Perrone expected to anchor the midfield, the visitors will look to exploit any gaps in the Lens backline. Both sides approach this pivotal clash with distinct priorities as they battle for crucial points in the group standings.
