Bet with MINO CASINO →Como expected to triumph over Lens
We expect the away team to win, offered at 2.22 odds. The freshly promoted club has become a key story in this European season, traveling to the venue with determination, talent and hopes of finishing in the top eight.
Como have won each of their last five competitive matches, scoring 13 times and conceding only 3. All three of their Champions League fixtures to date have been high‑scoring affairs. Currently sitting fourth in Serie A, they enter their debut European campaign with the confidence of a side that sees no risk.
Lens are trending downwards. Their recent Champions League record shows two defeats without a goal, and they have failed to keep a clean sheet in nine Ligue 1 fixtures so far.
Missing the sidelined Édouard, they rely on playing at home and enjoying a two‑day rest advantage.
At odds of 2.22, backing the side in good form against a defensively weak opponent delivers the top value. Como has no established track record abroad, creating real doubt, but the present performances of both clubs clearly tip the balance toward one team.

RC Lens vs FC Como: Odds & Top Picks
Odds are almost even, with Lens slight favourites at home and Como quoted at 2.22 – a generous payout given their five‑match winning streak. A draw looks like the safest pick.
Como has seen every European fixture feature five or more goals, making the goal markets lively, whereas Lens has struggled to find the net abroad, suggesting a cautious approach to any goal‑related wagers on the home side. Our pick: a victory for Como.
What recent performances have Lens and Como shown before this game?
After an encouraging start, Lens quickly stumbled in Europe, suffering two consecutive defeats without finding the net, which dropped them into the chase pack; domestically they sit 27th, having collected merely three points from three games, offering little comfort.
Como have secured five consecutive victories across all competitions, accumulating a 13‑3 record, a run that has elevated them to fourth place in Serie A and placed them on the brink of the Champions League’s last eight.

Lens have conceded in all nine of their Ligue 1 games this season – the weakest home defence currently – and they failed to score in their last two European outings.
Across all three of Como’s Champions League outings, each match has produced a tally of five or more goals, indicating that the encounters stay entertaining and competitive irrespective of who leads.
