19thNantes -24pts – LDDWLRecent highlightsTeam Profile
After an ill-advised dalliance with Raymond Domenech, the Canaries have experienced a mini-revival under Antoine Kombouare. Will it be too little too late?

18th – Nimes – 25pts – LDWWW Recent highlightsTeam Profile

17th – Lorient – 27 pts – DWLLDRecent highlightsTeam Profile

16th – St-Etienne – 30pts – LLDWWRecent highlightsTeam Profile
Les Verts are not safe after a very up and down season under Claude Puel. PSG could equal their record number of titles this year, so they will want to remain at the top table at least.
Next 5: Angers (A), Monaco (H), Nimes (A), Bordeaux (H), PSG (A)

15th – Bordeaux – 33pts – LLLDLRecent highlightsTeam Profile
Having failed to win in eight matches, the Girondins are on a dreadful run, but victory against the even worse Dijon should all but secure safety.

Next 5: Rennes (A), Lens (H), Bordeaux (A), PSG (H), Nimes (A)

13th – Brest – 34pts – WLLDWRecent highlightsTeam Profile
The Pirate Team are looking good for survival. With 50 goals leaked, it’s hardly been a tight ship at the back, but stopper Larsonneur has often bailed them out.
Next 5: Marseille (A), Angers (H), Lorient (A), Nimes (H), Lens (H)

12th – Reims – 34pts – WDDDLRecent highlightsTeam Profile
After flying out of the blocks, Boulaye Dia has not been able to rediscover his fizz. It’s not been champagne football from Reims, but they’ll be fine.
Next 5: Lyon (H), Dijon (A), Rennes (H), Nice (A), Metz (H)

11th – Nice – 35pts – WWLLLRecent highlightsTeam Profile
Back to back wins inspired by standout performer Amine Gouiri have put any relegation fears to bed, but it’s been a disappointing season for the south coast side.

10th – Rennes – 38pts – LLLLLRecent highlightsTeam Profile

Next 5: Strasbourg (H), Metz (A), Reims (A), Nantes (H), Angers (A)

9th – Angers – 39pts – WDDLLRecent highlightsTeam Profile
Le SCO can be satisfied with another solid season that has given them an outside shot at Europe. If that fails, the Angevins could target a first ever cup victory.
Next 5: St-Etienne (H), Brest (A), Montpellier (H), Lyon (A), Rennes (H)

8th – Montpellier – 40pts – DDWWWRecent highlightsTeam Profile

7th – Metz – 41pts – LWWLLRecent highlightsTeam Profile

6th – Marseille – 42pts – WLDDWRecent highlightsTeam Profile
Despite Andre Villas Boas’ comic departure, a fan attack on the training ground, and Payet and Thauvin’s ongoing personal feud, they are still somehow 6th. What crisis?
Next 5: Brest (H), Nice (A), Dijon (H), Montpellier (A), Lorient (H)

5th – Lens – 44pts – WDWDDRecent highlightsTeam Profile
Unbeaten in eight, the Blood and Gold’s return to the top flight has been magnificent. Former Lens youth product Gael Kakuta has been a big factor in their renaissance.
Next 5: Metz (H), Strasbourg (A), Lyon (H), Lorient (H), Brest (A)

4th – Monaco – 55pts – LWWDWRecent highlightsTeam Profile

3rd – Lyon – 59pts – WDWLWRecent highlightsTeam Profile
With no European distractions and Memphis Depay and Houssem Aouar both still on the books, this is the best chance Lyon have had at the title for years.
Next 5: Reims (A), PSG (H), Lens (A), Angers (H), Nantes (A)

2nd – PSG – 60pts – WWLWWRecent highlightsTeam Profile
This will not be a stroll to the title for Pochettino, as he will have to juggle Champions League commitments with a tricky run-in. Still favourites nevertheless.

1st – Lille – 62pts – WDWDWRecent highlightsTeam Profile
