At 3 eastern the Coup De France Final Headlines Soccer and we are backing RC Lens to win despite the high line Lens looks to win their first ever Coup Final and they are likely to get it done today. Lens has found the back of the net 16 times in 4 Coup De France matches. As for Nice they are very hard to breakdown and have gone unbeaten in 7 of the last 8 in the head to head with Lens. That Said Lens had a Solid Ligue 1 season and will likely possess the ball for most of the match as Nice likes to stay strong on defense and rely on counters to generate offense. Nice rarely concedes more than once in this tournament. Based on current form we will back Lens to emerge with a win. GL Rob V-

Free Play from Doc’s Sports. MLS Take San Jose over Portland (9:30 p.m. EST, Saturday May 23) This is the last match before the International Break for the World Cup. San Jose is second place in the Western Conference and enters the week five points off the best mark in the entire MLS. This side is a legit championship contender with a +17 goal differential through 14 matches. Compare that to Portland, at 12th in the Western Conference with a -4 goal differential. Both teams will put extra emphasis on getting points before the break, but the Earthquakes have the players and coaching to get the three points here on the road. San Jose has never won here but this looks like the year it can happen as the Earthquakes are second in away form in MLS this season. They average over two goals per match on offense and have allowed a goal per match on defense. San Jose has won two of the last three meetings, with one draw, and we think they are well positioned to collect full points here before the break.
