The 2022-23 Ligue 1 season continues this weekend, as Lorient welcome Lille to face them at Stade du Moustoir. It's a visit that, pre-season, the latter might have considered one of their easier challenges.
But four wins on the bounce have catapulted their hosts into the middle of a surprise title race, keeping pace with the heavyweights and far outclassing them - making this match more of a must-win toss-up than a foregone conclusion.
