The fight for the retention in Ligue 1 promises palpable indecision, as evidenced by the proximity of the teams at the bottom of the ranking. After the twenty-ninth day, five clubs were particularly affected by this survival race: Anangers with thirty points, Reims with twenty-nine points, Le Havre with twenty-seven points, L-ASSE with twenty-four points and Montpellier with fifteen points. The upcoming meetings will be crucial for both teams, as each win can significantly influence the fate of these teams.

The following days present a busy and potentially decisive calendar for the clubs concerned. Anangers will face Nice, Lille, Nantes and Strasbourg, while Reims will compete in Toulouse, Montpellier, Nice and Lille. Le Havre will face Paris-SG, Monaco, Auxerre and Marseille. LASSE will travel to Lyon, Strasbourg and Monaco, and face Reims and Toulouse. Montpellier will meet Paris-SG, Reims, Brest and Paris-SG. These confrontations, divided between home and outside meetings, highlight the importance of each match in this critical phase of the season.

The provisional ranking of the Ligue 1, to date, reveals a hierarchy marked by the Paris-SG in the lead, followed by Monaco and Marseille. Lyon, Lille and Strasbourg complete the top six, while the teams fighting for their retention are relegated to the second part of the table. This table illustrates the fierce competition in Ligue 1 and highlights the uncertainty as to the fate of these teams, whose final destiny will depend on their performance in future encounters.
