Bottom club Dijon are in danger heading into Round 34, but they're not the only ones... check out the key stats what could be a decisive Ligue 1 Uber Eats weekend in the battle to beat the drop!

Stade Brestois 29 have none their last ten Ligue 1 Uber Eats trips (three draws, seven defeats) - the second-worst current run, behind Lorient (13). The Finisterian club has not had such a long drought away from home in the top flight since 2011-12 (18).

● Each of RC Lens' last three Ligue 1 Uber Eats matches at home to Nîmes Olympique have ended 0-0. If the teams play out another goalless draw this weekend, it will equal the longest such streak for a Stade Bollaert clash in the division: four times in a row against Le Havre between October 1986 and August 1992.

FC Lorient have only lost one of their last eight Ligue 1 Uber Eats matches at home to Girondins de Bordeaux (three wins, four draws). That was on 11 November 2012 (0-4) and since then, the Breton club have gone four consecutive games without defeat against this opponent (one win, three draws). Moreover, Lorient have won five of their last seven home games in the league (one draw, one defeat), after having won only two of their first nine this season (one draw, six defeats).

Dijon FCO are averaging 1.5 points per game against Rennes in Ligue 1 Uber Eats (four wins, three draws, three losses), their best ratio against a current top-flight opponent whom they have faced at least ten times.

RC Strasbourg Alsace are on a three-game winning streak against Nantes in Ligue 1 Uber Eats - having lost each of their previous seven games. This is their best-ever run against this opponent in the elite, but FC Nantes have won four of their seven trips to Strasbourg in the league in the 21st century (three defeats). There is no opponent over whom they have won five times in the elite over the period.
