The matches:

PSG hosting Le Havre should be a good way to get back into the league. Even though the Havre team won't be giving any gifts, focus is needed right after the international break. Be careful not to think too much about the Champions League, which returns this Wednesday with the visit of Tottenham. It's crucial to take the 3 points to best protect the top spot.

The 2nd place team, Olympique de Marseille, could get caught in the derby at Nice. The 9th in the league is capable of anything, and it's hard to predict how this match will turn out. There's also a very exciting match between Lens (3rd) and Strasbourg (4th), teams determined to stay in the European race. It should be a great match to watch.

Lille (5th) needs to take advantage of this duel by hosting Paris FC (11th), an interesting team, but one that seems to lack a bit of consistency to cling to the highest level. Waiting in the wings, Monaco (6th) and Rennes (8th) have a great duel of potential teams, but lacking consistency. Lyon (7th) must take advantage of this to climb up by traveling to Auxerre, an 18th place team in crisis. However, be cautious of their reaction.

In terms of staying up, there are important duels between Brest (15th) and Metz (14th), FC Nantes (16th) and Lorient (17th), as well as Toulouse (10th) and Angers (13th). The latter two are a bit further from the danger zone but need points to ensure safety.
