The Bollaert-Delelis stadium will come to the boil on Saturday with RC Lens poised to clinch second place in Ligue 1 and with it their first ticket to the Champions League group phase in 21 years.
Franck Haise's team, assembled with the league's 10th biggest budget of 62 million euros , rarely disappoint the home fans though, having taking 49 points from a possible 54 on their own patch. While the crowd will greet the side with a rendition of the spine-chilling 'Les Corons' - a 1980s French hit paying tribute to the miners of northern France - there are no post-game celebrations planned, officially."I found the team very calm. We've only lost four games this season. We deserve to live these moments, it's every player's dream."
"We have enough experience to know that it will be hard if we don't respect our opponents. Staying at the highest level for so long is new to us," said Sotoca.
