Lorient – Angers

Lorient, sitting eighth in the table with five points from one win, two draws and a loss, will host Angers on their own turf, hoping to improve a modest 4‑4 goal tally. The visitors sit just below them in eleventh place, having gathered four points from one victory, one draw and two defeats while conceding five. Both sides have scored and leaked four goals each, suggesting a tightly contested encounter where defensive solidity could decide the three points. A win for Lorient would push them toward the top half, whereas Angers will need a positive result to climb out of the lower mid‑table and keep their European hopes alive.
