Le Havre vs. PSG (Sunday, 12.00pm)
Potentially still feeling the effects of a gruelling Champions League contest with Newcastle United, Paris Saint-Germain resume their Ligue 1 title charge away to Le Havre on Sunday.
Les Parisiens benefitted from a contentious VAR decision to hold Newcastle to a 1-1 draw in midweek, while their hosts also took a point off of Nantes last weekend.
We say: Le Havre 0-2 Paris Saint-Germain
Le Havre's Ligue 1 foundations this term have been built on a rigid defensive structure, but even with Casimir and Bayo making welcome returns to the fold, their attacking concerns are still alive and well.
A depleted PSG backline should have no trouble keeping their shot-shy hosts at arm's length, and with a taste for goals in domestic action, Enrique's men ought to prevail with ease to remain in control of their title destiny.

Toulouse vs. Lorient (Sunday, 2.00pm)
Toulouse and Lorient meet in a potential early-season relegation six-pointer at the Stadium Municipal in Ligue 1 on Sunday.
Just one point separates the two sides, who are both on very poor runs of form, which have seen them slide down the table after promising starts.
We say: Toulouse 2-2 Lorient
The hosts have not fared too well against Lorient at home in the recent past, winning just one of their previous four Ligue 1 games here, but there have been 19 goals in those previous meetings.
Lorient's goal-laden season at both ends may therefore continue in a close encounter which will likely end level, especially considering the visitor's record of just one win in 16 away league games.

Monaco vs. Montpellier (Sunday, 2.00pm)
Monaco will seek to close the gap at the top of the Ligue 1 table when they return to Stade Louis II for a date with Montpellier HSC on Sunday.
Les Monegasques are currently third, six points behind Paris Saint-Germain, who beat them 5-2 last Friday, while Montpellier are just three points above the relegation line following a 1-1 draw with Clermont on Wednesday.
We say: Monaco 3-1 Montpellier HSC
Montpellier have had their struggles defensively away from home, conceding multiple goals in three of their domestic road fixtures this season.
As poor as Les Monegasques were defensively last Friday, we expect their quality attacking players to take their frustrations out on La Paillade.

Brest vs. Clermont (Sunday, 2.00pm)
Clermont can claim their first-ever Ligue 1 victory against Brest when they travel to Stade Francis-Le Ble to face them on Sunday.
After 13 league fixtures, Les Lanciers are second from the bottom, conceding a late equaliser in a 1-1 draw versus Montpellier HSC this week, while Stade Brestois are seventh, a mere two points off a European place following a 3-1 triumph over that same Montpellier side last Sunday.
We say: Brest 2-0 Clermont
Fatigue could be a factor for the visitors, who will only have a few days to rest before this encounter, while missing two key players through suspension will not help.
Brest have been a little more consistent and sharper in the attacking third than their weekend opponents, and we expect them to find a breakthrough and cruise from there.

Lille vs. Metz (Sunday, 4.05pm)
Fresh from their Europa Conference League victory in midweek, Lille return to Ligue 1 action when they welcome Metz to Stade Pierre-Mauroy on Sunday.
While the hosts have not lost in any competition since the end of September, the visitors are hoping to extend their unbeaten league run to five matches.
We say: Lille 2-1 Metz
A closely-fought contest between two in-form teams could be on the cards on Sunday, but considering Lille are set to recall a few first-team regulars who were rested in midweek, we expect Fonceca's men to have few issues coming away with all three points on home soil.

Marseille vs. Rennes (Sunday, 7.45pm)
Fresh from Europa League group-stage victories in midweek, Marseille and Rennes return to Ligue 1 action on Sunday evening for a contest at the Stade Velodrome.
While the hosts are hoping to end a four-game winless run in Ligue 1, the visitors have only picked up maximum points in one of their last six top-flight matches.
We say: Marseille 2-1 Rennes
Both Marseille and Rennes will enter Sunday's clash in high spirits and will hope to build on their Europa League wins in midweek as they attempt to turn their fortunes around in Ligue 1 and climb the table.
Although there is little to separate these two teams, we believe Marseille will do enough to come out on top considering their strong unbeaten home run and recent head-to-head record against Rennes.
