Matchday 31 gets underway with a Friday evening clash featuring Lorient and Saint-Etienne, but there will be plenty more games you won't want to miss.
This includes relegation threatened Clermont facing PSG in a David vs Goliath clash and Marseille, fresh off a hard-fought 1-1 draw with West Ham in the Europa League facing Montpellier. Meanwhile, high-flying Strasbourg, who have worked their way up to fourth, will be taking on Lyon in a match that could see them rise into third spot if everything goes according to plan, but Rennes, who have also had an impressive season, will be keen on hanging on to their spot in third when they face Reims. Finally, reigning champs Lille, who have struggled this season, will take on an Angers side who've won just one of their last five on the road on Sunday.
Here's all you need to know ahead of matchday 31.
