In the latest round of Ligue 1 action, two teams have made significant progress towards securing their spots in Europe's top tier, while another has experienced a fall from grace.

Starting with Lens, the French side closed in on Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) in the race for the title. After winning their previous match against Reims, Lens moved up to fourth place in the table, just one point behind PSG. This result means that Lens will be looking to continue their impressive form and secure their spot in Europe's elite league next season.

On the other hand, Marseille faced a tough challenge as they slipped to fourth place after losing to Nice. The loss was a major blow for Marseille, who had been performing well in recent weeks. However, Marseille coach Lucien Favre remains optimistic about his team's chances of making it back into the Champions League next season.

Finally, there was a disappointing result for Rennes, who lost to Lyon in their last match of the round. This defeat meant that Rennes dropped out of the European places, leaving them fighting for survival in the French top flight.

Overall, the results of this round of Ligue 1 were mixed, with some teams closing in on Europe's top tier and others struggling to maintain their positions. However, the competition is heating up, and it will be interesting to see how the teams perform in the remaining matches of the season.
