The search for a new Ligue 1 champion continues, with those behind PSG trying to cut their lead short. Keep track of the games with this guide.

The battle for the 2023-24 Ligue 1 title carries on this weekend, but this week will be a bit different due to PSG's absence from the competition.

Brest will be the only team among the top three trying to increase their tally at the top, although their clash this week will not be easy at all. Elsewhere, the battle to avoid relegation will be in full gear with four of the five teams currently in the lower half of the table getting ready to play their matches during the weekend.

In case you want to know why PSG, Lille, and Marseille will not be playing this weekend, the reason for their absences this weekend has to do with their involvement in European competitions. Ligue 1's board decided to give these teams time off to focus on their European competition matches, which took place this week and will be held next week (Lille and Marseille as hosts, PSG away at Barcelona).

Here are the main things to keep in mind ahead of this weekend's matches.

Top games to watch 

Metz vs Lens - The away side will want to take advantage of Nice's "rest" by claiming a win here to leapfrog their rivals and claim the fifth spot in the league, which provides access to European tournaments. Meanwhile, Metz will want to make the most out of this game, since Lorient will not be playing this weekend and they could level their points tally if they can claim all the points here, something that happened back in September with a 1-0 score.

Strasbourg vs Reims - This game's hosts are languishing in the middle of the table with no real aspiration to make the top six, but with a potential involvement in the relegation battle if they relax too much. On the other hand, Reims are seventh in the league with much to play for, as a win here could get them involved in the battle for European competition spots by getting closer to Lille and Nice. The first game of the season between them ended in a win for Reims, which could also be a sign of things to come in this clash.

Lyon vs Brest - The current runners-up in Ligue 1 return to action on the back of a two-game winning streak, but their next game will not be easy due to Lyon's recent results. The hosts have won three out of their last four, which could make for a very entertaining game. The previous match between these clubs these season ended one-nil for Brest, but after being unable to win at Groupama Stadium in their last four trips (three draws, one loss), claiming all the points in this game might be easier said than done.
