As the final few weeks of the Ligue 1 season draw to a close, the battle for survival is heating up. Three teams – Nantes, Clermont, and Ajaccio – find themselves in the relegation zone, with just five games left to play.
Nantes have been the most consistent team throughout the season, but they still find themselves just one point above the relegation zone. With just four wins from their last six games, they will need to win all of their remaining matches if they hope to avoid being relegated.
Clermont, on the other hand, has struggled this season, having only managed two victories in their last eight games. They currently sit three points below the relegation zone, and any slip-ups could see them fall out of contention entirely.
Ajaccio, meanwhile, have had a much more difficult time this season, having lost seven of their last nine games. Despite this, they remain just one point above the relegation zone, and will be looking to secure their place in the top flight come the end of the season.
With just five games left to play, it looks like there may be some unexpected twists in the battle for survival. But whatever happens, it promises to be an exciting final stretch of the season.
