This Saturday at 5 p.m., the 15th day of Ligue 1 kicks off with a match between FC Nantes and RC Lens at the Stade de la Beaujoire. Les Canaris could well fight to the end to stay in the top flight of French football. They are currently in the relegation zone, in 16th place. It must be said that Luis Castro's team has been unable to get back to winning ways. They have failed to win in their last five league games. It's a difficult period as they prepare to host one of France's top teams...
RC Lens is none other than the leader of Ligue 1. Last weekend, the Artois club took advantage of missteps by PSG and OM to move to the top of the table. Pierre Sage's men have been shining for weeks now. They are on a four-game winning streak, with victories against big names such as AS Monaco (1-4) and RC Strasbourg (1-0). Lens have no intention of letting up for this trip to the home of a team at the bottom of the table.
