Lille, who jump four spots to 11th in the 20-strong table, scored a goal in each half through defenders Michel Bastos and Franck Beria to pick up the points from a game postponed from last December because of a frozen pitch.

Lens, who reduced the arrears with a late goal from Brazilian defender Hilton, stay fifth from bottom, two points from the relegation zone.
