The French football league has been filled with intense competition this season, with the relegation zone being particularly heated. Two teams from the top tier of French football have found themselves in trouble, with just five games left to play.

Nantes and Clermont Auvergne are both fighting for their lives in the relegation zone, with just one point separating them from the bottom two teams. This is a tough situation for both sides, but they are not giving up without a fight.

Nantes, who currently sit in 22nd place, have struggled this season, losing seven of their last ten matches. However, they still have hope of avoiding relegation if they can win their remaining five games. They will need to put in a strong performance against fellow strugglers Ajaccio, who are also in serious danger of dropping down to Ligue 2.

Clermont Auvergne, on the other hand, have lost eight of their last nine matches and are sitting in 21st place. They will be looking to bounce back and avoid the drop by beating struggling Rennes, who are currently in 19th place.

Both sides will be hoping that their final five games will be enough to secure their survival in Ligue 1. The pressure is on these teams to perform at their best and give it their all, knowing that every match could be their last chance to stay in the top flight.
