Nantes might be in for some more battle for their own survival in the final games of the season and they can't afford not to get the right results in those games. They are currently just 1 point above Le Havre in 15th place and 4 points above the relegation playoff spot, so it is imperative that they win their remaining games. However, results from their last 5 games suggests that it might be difficult for them to achieve, as we can see they have won 1, lost 2 and drawn 2 of their last 5 league games. And their overall record is 9 wins, 6 draws and 17 defeats this season.
Nantes played a goalless draw with Stade Brest last week to increase their winless streak to 3 games in a row. In the end of the tight game, Nantes managed only 28% possession, 1 shot on target and 0 corner kicks.
LOSC Lille
LOSC Lille are aiming to return to winning ways after falling to a defeat against Olympique Lyon in their last game at home. They were quite impressive in the 4-3 defeat but they fell short in the end. As a result, their record in the last 5 games is: 3 wins and 2 defeats. And their overall record throughout the season is: 15 wins, 10 draws and 7 defeats. LOSC Lille are eyeing a 3rd place finish and they are only 2 points behind Stade Brest in 3rd place. So, a win here for Lille would be a huge step towards achieving their aim.
