Match Preview

Lens just about remain in the Ligue 1 title race, sitting six points behind PSG heading into the weekend. They've lost just once in their last five games, but they've only won twice during that period.

Nantes are sitting second bottom of the table heading into the weekend, but they did receive a boost in their survival chances by winning last time out. If they lose this weekend, they will be relegated to Ligue 2.

The last time these two sides met back in December, Lens pulled off a 2-1 victory away from home. On their own turf, Lens have won the last three meetings, with their last defeat coming all the way back in 2013.
