Mass is said for the title. But for the rest, the suspense continues at all levels. Saturday, the 37th day of Ligue 1 will be enamelled with challenges, through ten meetings which will be held at 9 p.m. in multiplex. Olympique de Marseille is on pole to complete the exercise in second place and therefore take part in the next Champions League. The Girondins de Bordeaux are on the contrary on the edge of the abyss. Here’s what could be done this weekend.

Race to the Champions League
OM can validate their ticket at least for the preliminary round of the Champions League, this Saturday. For this, the Phocaeans must not lose to Rennes. If they draw or win, we will have to look at the competition to find out if Marseille can approach the final day calmly. ASM, in the running for second place synonymous with direct qualification for the C1, cannot be sure to finish runner-up to PSG but can validate its place on the podium.
