Lille coach Rudi Garcia has claimed that his side's match against Reims on Friday night will be the "most important" game of the season.
Garcia's men would move above Saint-Etienne and Nice into fourth ahead of the weekend's fixtures with a win, which would put pressure on their rivals in the race for the Europa League.
"In my eyes, the match against Reims is the most important match of the season," he told Ligue1.com. "Now more than ever, we need our supporters behind us.
"I know that they were not happy with leading 3-0 before drawing 3-3 against Sochaux. We owe them a win on Friday.
"If we want to play in Europe next season we have to win. Nothing else will do! Anything other than a win and we can wave goodbye to Europe."
Lille have won just one of their last four Ligue 1 games.
