Laval – Dijon

Laval host a struggling Dijon on Saturday, hoping to turn a season that has yielded just four points from six games into a spark of revival. The home side sit 18th in the table with a solitary win, one draw and four defeats, and a worrying -6 goal difference (7 scored, 13 conceded). Dijon, meanwhile, occupy 13th place, boasting six points after one victory, three stalemates and two losses, and a marginally better -1 goal difference (8 for, 9 against). With both teams desperate for points, the clash promises a tense battle where Laval will need to tighten up at the back while Dijon will look to capitalize on their slightly superior recent form. A win for either side could be pivotal in the fight to climb out of the relegation zone.
