Lyon will aim to keep their slim chances of a top-five finish in the Ligue 1 table alive on Saturday, when they welcome Montpellier HSC to the Parc Olympique Lyonnais.
The hosts sit eighth after a disappointing defeat on Wednesday, while their visitors remain 11th, having failed to win any of their last four games.
We say: Lyon 2-1 Montpellier HSC
While Lyon have been far from their best for large sections of the season, and come in with a badly hit squad, they still boast plenty of quality and meet an out-of-sorts Montpellier side.
We ultimately see Bosz's men returning to winning ways with home advantage and the need for a near-perfect end to the season to stand any chance of a high finish.

Saint-Etienne and Monaco will do battle on Saturday in a game with major implications at both ends of the Ligue 1 table.
The visitors currently sit fifth thanks to an eye-catching run of form, while their visitors are in the relegation playoff place, one point adrift of guaranteed safety.
We say: Saint-Etienne 0-2 Monaco
Saint-Etienne are showing fight in their bid to avoid the drop, but they are coming up against a Monaco side full of confidence, and we anticipate an away win.
The visitors will aim to strengthen their pursuit of the top three with a sixth straight win, and they boast the quality to cruise past the strugglers.

PSG vs. Lens (Saturday, 8.00pm)

Now only one point away from confirming their status as Ligue 1 champions, Paris Saint-Germain will aim to finish the job with four games to spare against Lens on Saturday night at the Parc des Princes.
Mauricio Pochettino's side eased to a 3-0 success against Angers in midweek, while Franck Haise's men ran out 2-0 winners at home to Montpellier HSC.
We say: Paris Saint-Germain 2-0 Lens
There are no two ways about it - PSG will be crowned 2021-22 champions sooner rather than later, and Pochettino's players would probably choose to celebrate it in front of their own supporters than at the Stade Raymond Kopa.
The hosts' injuries and Lens' recent hot streak makes this a slightly more interesting proposition than it would initially appear on paper, but PSG have been near flawless at home this term and will not settle for the one point needed to secure the title - the celebrations ought to begin after a professional win in the capital.
