Slavia Prague's European struggles continue, winless streak extends.
10 Sep
Summary
- Slavia Prague is winless in 15 major European matches.
- Lens has been eliminated in the group stage three times.
- Slavia Prague had the joint-lowest goals in UCL 2025-26.
Slavia Prague's European journey has hit a significant rough patch, with the team currently enduring a 15-match winless streak in major competitions. Their last victory was at the start of their 2024-25 UEFA Europa League campaign. This ongoing struggle marks their longest winless run in European play since a previous streak that ended in December 2009.
In contrast, Lens enters the UEFA Champions League facing their own historical pattern. The French club has a history of group stage elimination, having not advanced past this stage in their previous three Champions League appearances. This upcoming season represents their fourth venture into the competition.
Historically, Slavia Prague and Lens have met only once before in European competition during the 1995-96 UEFA Cup, with Slavia Prague emerging victorious on aggregate. Recent statistics show that French teams have struggled away against Slavia Prague, with Lille being the last to secure an away win in October 2009.
Lens' performance in the UEFA Champions League is notably balanced, with an equal number of wins, draws, and defeats. This statistical parity is unique in the competition's history. Slavia Prague, however, faced significant offensive challenges in the 2025-26 UEFA Champions League, being joint-lowest scorers.
