Lille is in great form, with 4 wins in their last 5 matches, and they come into this crucial clash for European spots full of confidence. In contrast, Marseille has shown very poor performances away from home, suffering 4 consecutive defeats on the road. As a direct battle in the upper part of the table, the home advantage and Lille's current momentum suggest a solid 2-0 victory for the hosts.
Lyon comes into this match with the obligation to win in order to stay in the fight for European spots. They’re playing at home and are expected to come out with intensity from the start. Lens, although with little left to play for, has shown recent offensive ability, scoring in 3 of their last 4 away games. Even so, Lyon’s urgency and emotional momentum could tilt the balance in their favor with a narrow 2-1 win. I feel quite confident about this outcome.
Stade Brestois has a great opportunity to close the season with a victory against a Montpellier side that has already been relegated and has been the weakest team in the league. The difference in motivation and quality is clear, and although the visitors might play without pressure, Brest is expected to assert their superiority and take all three points with a 2-1 win at home.
Le Havre is fighting to stay in the league in this match and comes in under pressure to urgently earn points to avoid relegation. On the other hand, Auxerre is no longer competing for any objective and has shown inconsistency in its recent performances. That lack of motivation could open the door for the visiting team, which will likely come out strong from the start. Due to the need, attitude, and context, I expect a 0-2 victory for Le Havre.
