Sunday afternoon will witness a meeting of two former French champions, as Montpellier HSC welcome Champions League-chasing Lille to Stade de la Mosson-Mondial for a Ligue 1 encounter.
La Paillade are yet to collect any league points since returning from the winter break, while Les Dogues were able to ease past basement dwellers Lorient last time out in this competition.
We say: Montpellier HSC 1-1 Lille
Montpellier have endured a mixed start to 2024, but we believe that Sunday's hosts are very capable of securing a result against Lille in this one.
Les Dogues are unbeaten so far in the new calendar year, and we feel that run will continue at Stade de la Mosson-Mondial on Sunday afternoon.

Aiming to give their fight for survival a much-needed boost, bottom side Lorient will welcome Le Havre to Stade du Moustoir on Sunday afternoon for a Ligue 1 clash.
Les Merlus' woeful run of form continued last time out at Lille, whereas Le Havre have won three-straight matches across the league and Coupe de France.
We say: Lorient 1-2 Le Havre
Lorient have been shipping goals of late, and we can imagine that trend continuing against a Le Havre side who are full of confidence following three-straight victories.
The visitors will be fancying their chances of extending their winning streak to four matches on Sunday, and we reckon that Elsner's side will do just that.

Strasbourg will look to make it eight games unbeaten in the French top flight on Sunday, when they travel to take on Clermont in a rematch of last Sunday's Coupe de France tie.
The hosts climbed to 17th spot in the Ligue 1 table with a win last time out but remain two points adrift of safety, while their visitors sit ninth thanks to their recent improvement and got the better of Clermont last weekend.
We say: Clermont 1-2 Strasbourg
Strasbourg were able to prevail away at Clermont in the Coupe de France last time out, and with more momentum on their side and more quality in their ranks, we fancy them to do the same in Ligue 1 this weekend and take all three points.

Aiming to make it three league wins on the bounce and climb into the top five of the Ligue 1 table, Reims will welcome Nantes to the Stade Auguste-Delaune II on Sunday.
The hosts trail fifth-placed Lille by two points, while their visitors sit 13th on the back of four straight top-flight defeats.
We say: Reims 2-0 Nantes
Even with several key men away on international duty, Reims certainly have the quality in their side to get over the line on home turf on Sunday and should outclass their struggling visitors with confidence growing in the camp under Still.

Toulouse vs. Lens (Sunday, 4.05pm)

In Ligue 1 on Sunday, Lens will look to put a disappointing start to 2024 behind them when they travel to face a Toulouse side reeling from a shock cup exit.
The hosts were dumped out of the Coupe de France in extraordinary circumstances last weekend, after returning to league action in fine fashion.
We say: Toulouse 1-2 Lens
Lens have won five in a row against Toulouse, including in the reverse fixture back in September when Guilavogui scored a late winner, and they are now looking more like the side that gatecrashed the top three last season.
Toulouse's confidence may be extremely fragile after being the slain giants in the cup last week, and their position in the Ligue 1 table does not lie, as another difficult fixture awaits.

PSG vs. Brest (Sunday, 7.45pm)

In the pick of the games in Ligue 1 this weekend, league leaders Paris Saint-Germain welcome Brest to the Parc des Princes.
These two clubs are among the most in-form sides in France and across Europe at present, and the visitors will be confident of another eye-catching performance to keep their Champions League dreams alive.
We say: Paris Saint-Germain 3-1 Brest
In arguably their toughest test since the start of an incredible run of domestic results, PSG still have the quality to overcome this impressive Brest side, spearheaded by the relentless Mbappe in attack.
Despite their sensational recent form, PSG are a class above, and Brest's superb run may well come to an end in the capital, but expect the visitors to put up a good fight.
