Relegation-doomed Angers welcome Lyon to Stade Raymond Kopa on Saturday, with the hosts sitting 10 points from safety at the foot of the Ligue 1 table.
Meanwhile, Lyon find themselves ninth – 25 points clear of Angers – having thrashed Le SCO 5-0 in the reverse fixture back in September.
We say: Angers 0-2 Lyon
Having claimed a measly two wins in Ligue 1 all season, Angers are not likely to prevent Lyon from leaving Stade Raymond Kopa with all three points on Saturday.
It is no secret that OL have struggled for consistency this term, but they should not struggle to dispatch Angers, who have lost 75% of their league matches in 2022-23.

Montpellier vs. Lens (Saturday, 8.00pm)

Lens will be looking to keep pace with the top three in Ligue 1 when they face a resurgent Montpellier HSC outfit at the Stade de la Mosson this weekend.
Montpellier head into Saturday's clash on the back of two straight victories, while Lens returned to winning ways with a 3-1 triumph over Nantes last time out.
We say: Montpellier HSC 1-1 Lens
Having claimed back-to-back wins following Der Zakarian's arrival, Montpellier will fancy their chances of frustrating Lens, regardless of the 23-point gap between the two sides.
The Blood and Gold have drawn four of their last five away league outings, so the European chasers might have to settle for another point on the road this weekend.
