Arsenal kick-off their pre-season tonight with a match against Lens in France and our football predictions include a couple of betting tips for the clash.
Fixture: Arsenal vs Lens
Competition: Pre-season friendly
Kick-off time: 7pm, Friday 22nd July 2016
Venue: Stade Bollaert-Delelis, Lens
The French side have already played one pre-season friendly match so they are further into their preparations for the start of the new season but the majority of Arsenal players were involved at either Euro 2016 of the Copa America this summer.
The likes of Theo Walcott and Alex Oxlaide-Chamberlain could feature but new signing Granit Xhaka isn’t with the Arsenal squad in France yet. Jack Wilshere could also play a part at the stadium where he helped England beat Wales 2-1 at Euro 2016.
Watch: England beat Wales 2-1 at Lens' stadium:
RC Lens vs Arsenal Predictions
Lens ply their trade in Ligue 2 domestically so Arsenal really should have enough quality to see off tonight’s opponents, whatever starting line-up Arsenal play. The odds for Arsenal to beat Lens are only 4/9 so I am going to take a chance on betting on a correct score bet and go for a 2-0 Arsenal win. Lens lost four of their last five league games at the end of last season so I’m not predicting a strong showing from them tonight. My first Lens vs Arsenal betting tip is for Arsenal to win 2-0 and the best odds are 15/2 with bet365.

For my second prediction tonight I’m looking at a safer bet and have picked out Arsenal to be winning at half-time and full-time. I expect them to start strong and tail off once the inevitable second half substitutions come into play. This is a great bet at odds of 11/8 with Ladbrokes and a confident shout for my second Lens vs Arsenal prediction in tonight’s friendly.
