Dijon FCO put distance between themselves and the Ligue 1 drop zone with a 3-0 triumph over second-bottom Nice.
Gael Kakuta scored on the stroke of half time to put the hosts in the lead.
Brice Jovial supplied the on-loan Chelsea star, who applied an excellent finish from just outside the area.
The roles were then reversed when Kakuta turned provider, and Jovial doubled the advantage with an exquisite flick past David Ospina in the 53rd minute.
Koro Kone's 87th-minute goal sealed victory for Patrice Carteron's men, who launch themselves into 10th place in Ligue 1.
Dijon are now seven points clear of Auxerre in 18th, and travel to Ajaccio next Saturday.
Meanwhile Nice are four points adrift of Ajaccio, and play at home against Caen.
