The battle for survival in the Ligue 1 relegation zone is heating up as three teams - Nantes, Clermont, and Ajaccio - face off over just five rounds remaining in the season.
For Nantes, the team has been struggling all season long, having only managed to secure one win out of their last six matches. The club's head coach, Claude Puel, has admitted that there is still work to be done if they want to avoid the drop this season.
Clermont, on the other hand, have also had a tough season so far, but they are still fighting to stay in the top flight. Their manager, Christophe Galtier, has praised his players' resilience and determination, and believes that they can still turn things around.
Ajaccio, meanwhile, are looking to bounce back after a poor start to the season. They have been hit by injuries and suspensions, which has affected their form, but they remain optimistic about their chances of survival.
As the final five rounds of the season approach, these three teams will need to step up their game if they want to ensure their survival in the Ligue 1 relegation zone. With only a few games left to play, every point could count, and any slip-up could see them fall into the bottom half of the table.
