Dolphin of Lorient, Lens can resume control of Ligue 2 on Saturday (6.30pm) if successful at Guingamp, a match of the 20th day postponed after the accidental death of Breton striker Nathaël Julan.
It is the first match disputed in Roudourou since the road accident which cost the life of the young man of 23 years, whose funeral took place Thursday in Le Havre in the presence of his ex-partners of En Avant Guingamp .
The emotion will inevitably be strong for the Bretons and their trainer Sylvain Didot, whom the family of Nathaël Julan judged undesirable at the time of the funeral.
In sporting terms, Guingamp (10th) will try to get out of the soft stomach of Ligue 2; a victory would allow him to return to the height of Nancy and Valenciennes, 7th and 8th with 30 points.
But the game looks set against Lens, second in the championship with two points behind Lorient, Monday winner of Caen. The Sang et Or remain on three successes in Ligue 2, with only one goal conceded during this series.
