Lille, still undefeated, is aiming for first place in Ligue 1, which it can temporarily occupy on Friday (9 p.m.) in the event of a victory at home against Nantes, at the start of the 5th day.
After taking a point in Marseille (1-1), the Mastiffs (5th, 9 pts) will seek to extend against the Canaries their series of 10 games without defeat in all competitions.
With three points, Luiz Araujo's teammates could alone lead the standings, ahead of Saint-Etienne (1st, 10 pts) and Rennes (2nd, 10 pts) who face each other on Saturday (5:00 p.m.).
The Greens found that Nantes (14th, 5 pts) could titillate the big ones: the Canaries deprived them of a fourth consecutive success, by snatching the draw (2-2) after being led 2-0, last Sunday.
Sunday, Lens (3rd, 9 pts) in Nîmes (3:00 p.m.) and Montpellier (4th, 9 pts) in Dijon (3:00 p.m.), also keep an eye on the place of leader.
Paris SG (8th, 6 pts) closes the day in Reims (9:00 p.m.).
