A pair of Ligue 1 sides in early relegation danger will square off on Saturday at Stade Francois-Coty, with Ajaccio trailing Strasbourg by two points in the table.

L'ours have dropped consecutive league fixtures, losing 1-0 away to Auxerre to end October, while Les Coureurs dug themselves out of a 2-0 hole for the second straight match, drawing Marseille 2-2.

We say: Ajaccio 0-2 Strasbourg

Ajaccio do not have the quality to trouble a goalkeeper with the calibre of Sels, while the return of Ajorque to the Strasbourg attack should provide the visitors with a spark this weekend.

Angers vs. Lens (Saturday, 8.00pm)

Angers have a chance to end a five-match losing run in Ligue 1 when they welcome Lens to Stade Raymond Kopa on Saturday.

Les Scoistes are bottom of the table following a 2-0 loss at Monaco at the end of October, while Les Sang et Or are second in the league, defeating Toulouse 3-0 last Friday.

We say: Angers 0-3 Lens

Angers' defending at home speaks for itself, as they look far too timid and passive, something that we expect an in-form side like Lens will take advantage of on Friday.
