The battle for the 2023-24 Ligue 1 title carries on this weekend following an incomplete set of matches last week, which saw only six games taking place in the French top-flight. Now, with all teams involved, we will continue where things were, with PSG, Brest, and Monaco defending their spots as title contenders but with a big lead for Les Parisiens.
Brest failed to get closer to the league leaders with last week's loss, giving Luis Enrique's men an advantage they did not expect with one game in hand. The rest of the chasing pack were also forced to rest last week, making it even more hurtful for Brest in terms of their bad luck after dropping points.
Speaking of the league leaders, PSG will put an end to this weekend's action when they lock horns against Olympique Lyon, one of the most in-form teams in the league and who are gunning for a spot in European competitions despite a very slow start of the season. Les Parisiens will be hyped to go back to Parc des Princes after beating Barcelona in the UEFA Champions League, which could have a positive effect on Sunday's clash.
As for those battling to avoid relegation, Metz and Clermont got closer to those ahead of them in the relegation battle, but having a game in hand will be no good for them if they cannot build up on the points they won last week. Both teams will be playing away from home this weekend, which should make things interesting for the battle taking place on the lower side of the table.
Here are the main things to keep in mind ahead of this weekend's matches.

Top games to watch
Lille vs Strasbourg - The hosts are unbeaten in their last five games (three wins, two draws), and their game against Strasbourg seems like a good match given their recent record (four games without a loss). In their previous match of the season, Strasbourg walked away with a 2-1 win that ended a ten-game run for Lille without a loss against their guests on Sunday. Will that match present a chance to get even, or will Strasbourg start their own winning run?

Brest vs Monaco - The fight for the runner-up spot in Ligue 1 will have its peak moment of the season when Brest host Monaco. Only one point stands between these teams, but Monaco have been performing better in recent weeks, which may be enough to shift the tides in their favor. The away side enters this match on a four-game winning streak against Brest, which may be a hint of what could happen on Sunday.

PSG vs Lyon - The Ligue 1 leaders return to action following their impressive performance against Barcelona, and facing Lyon in one of their classic matches should be entertaining to watch. Les Parisiens won their previous fixture 4-1, but Lyon defeated their hosts on Sunday during their most recent trip to the French capital, which gives both teams arguments to search for payback. Will PSG get closer to the title with a win here, or will Lyon keep their European dreams for next season alive? Watch their game and find out.
