Ajaccio struck twice in the space of a minute to help ease their relegation worries with a 2-1 win at home to Dijon FCO.
Eduardo bagged his fourth goal since arriving in Corsica, before Johan Cavalli made it two in rapid succession ten minutes after the interval.
The second-half goals were enough to beat Patrick Carteron's men, who have only recorded back-to-back victories twice all season.
Bennard Kumordzi did pull one back on 66 minutes to give the visitors hope, but it was the Corsicans who opened up a three-point gap on their Ligue 1 rivals.
Ajaccio, who have now climbed to 16th and out of the Ligue 1 drop zone, will make the trip to face Paris Saint-Germain next week.
Meanwhile Dijon, who remain in 15th, will entertain Montpellier HSC.
