Nantes made it three wins on the spin in Ligue 1 with a 3-0 victory over Evian TG on Saturday.
Filip Djordjevic netted a first-half brace before Papy Djilobodji made sure of the win after the break.
The home side got off to the perfect start just three minutes into the match when Djordjevic struck his fourth goal in his last five games for Nantes to give them an early lead.
Evian had a brilliant chance to level the match just after the half-hour mark when Kevin Berigaud found himself free in the centre of the box, but he shot straight at Remy Riou.
Nantes doubled their lead just minutes later when Djordjevic converted a rebound from inside the box after Bertrand Laquait had parried away a low cross.
The hosts then added a third to seal the match with just 24 minutes when Djilobodji headed into the bottom corner at the far post from a cross on the left.
Nantes jump to fifth in the table, while Evian drop to 15th.
