Lens – Como Preview – Can Como win at Bollaert?
Our Lens vs Como betting tips start with the mood at each club. Lens come into this Champions League night at Bollaert after a 0-3 defeat at Club Brugge on 21 October, and a result like that is hard to shake off. Como arrive from a narrow 1-0 win over Venezia in Serie A, the kind of result that keeps a good run ticking.
Kick-off is on 4 November 2026 at 20:00 GMT, and the game is on matchday four of the league phase. We rate Como as the marginally stronger side, but only just. This is close to a coin-toss on the result, with an open, goal-friendly game expected. Our read is that Como’s current run gives them the narrow edge, and we will back it with a safety net.
Lens at home are a different animal from Lens on the road. Bollaert is loud and the crowd will drag the team forward, so you can expect Lens to press high and play with energy. That makes it a hard place to win. It also leaves space behind the defence, and Como have the passing quality to find it. You can read how Lens handled their other European nights in our preview of their trip to Brugge.
Lens – Como Betting Tips
Betting Tip: Como draw no bet
Como are the sharper side right now. They are well placed in Serie A with a strong win record, while Lens suffered a heavy defeat at Brugge on 21 October. We lean towards the visitors, but Bollaert is a tough place to play and a draw is a real outcome.
Draw no bet gives you the Como angle with your stake returned if it ends level. That is the sensible way to back a narrow edge in an evenly balanced game.
Betting Tip: Over 2.5 goals
Como’s Serie A games have been full of goals at both ends, with plenty scored and a fair few conceded. Lens are likely to attack from the first whistle after the Brugge result, and a team chasing a reaction opens up the game. Add a Como side that does not sit back, and this has the feel of a game with chances for both teams. We expect three or more goals.

What we expect from Como
Como are fourth in Serie A and have won most of their games this season. They also score freely and concede more than a title contender would like. That profile matters here: they will not shut the game down, and they will not be shut out. Como like to keep the ball and build patiently, and then they hit the box with numbers.
One note of caution. A report mentioned Assane Diao going off injured in a Champions League game, but we cannot confirm when that was or how serious it is. Check team news before kick-off. If you want more on Como in Europe, our Como preview from the previous round is a useful reference.
