While they look set to fall short of winning the French title, they are frontrunners to lift the cup ahead of Tuesday’s semi-final clash with Toulouse.Lens are hosting the semi-final, which comes just days after they beat Toulouse 3-2 at home in Ligue 1. The Violets have lost all six of their clashes with France’s top three, and they’re backed to fall short against a Lens side that has won 13 from 15 at home in Ligue 1 this term.However, Lens have made the last four thanks to some high-scoring ties. They’ve netted 12 times across the last four rounds, while keeping only one clean sheet. Both teams have scored in each of Toulouse’s visits to the top five this term, so back Lens to win and concede at 9/4.osted.They have moved eight points above the drop zone and they should be even more comfortable after this one.Bet builderBrighton to beat Chelsea, Danny Welbeck to score anytime, Enzo Fernandez 1+ shot on target, over 8.5 total corners @ 11/1 Chelsea suffered their sixth defeat in seven games in Saturday’s 1-0 home loss to Manchester United, and their struggles look set to continue in midweek.Brighton have won their last three meetings with Chelsea, while they’ve won three of the last four match-ups between the sides at the Amex. Forward Danny Welbeck has scored six goals against the Blues, only netting more against three other sides in his career. He has scored seven of his 12 Premier League goals this season at home, including in two of his last three appearances at the Amex for the Seagulls.The Blues welcomed Enzo Fernandez back into the fold at the weekend, and the Argentine had three shots against United, with one on target. He’s had a shot on target in 11 of his last 14 starts for Chelsea, and he can continue that run at Brighton.Finally, both of these sides have a pretty even split in terms of winning and conceding corners. Chelsea’s games average 10.45 corners per game this season, while Brighton take just over five corners per home game, while conceding 4.81.AccaBoth Teams to Score in at 8/1:– Oxford v Wrexham– Lens v Toulouse– Real Madrid v Alaves– Inter Milan v ComoOxford continue their battle for Championship survival against a Wrexham side that has conceded in seven of their last nine trips. The Welsh side have plenty of scoring threat, but Oxford have held their own against the top sides. The U’s are unbeaten against the league’s top eight at home, with both teams scoring in six of those matches. Goals are expected in the French Cup semi at Lens, and Inter Milan’s Coppa Italia semi-final with Como should also be open. The Nerazzurri have scored 12 goals in three games since the international break, but they’ve also managed only one clean sheet in their previous five matches.Finally, Real Madrid have conceded in eight straight La Liga outings, and they host an Alaves side in scoring form. The visitors have netted seven goals across visits to Real Sociedad and Celta Vigo in their last two trips. Both teams have scored in seven of eight Alaves games, so they should be able to cause problems in the capital.GET UP TO £40 IN FREE BETS WHEN YOU BET ON THE FOOTBALL WITH talkSPORT BETOdds correct at time of publish and subject to change**18+ New customers only.
