Lorient vs. Lyon (Sunday, 12.00pm)
Since this article was published, the game has been postponed due to an unplayable pitch. A new date for the game will be announced in due course.
Lorient and Lyon will both be aiming to build on winning starts in the 2022-23 Ligue 1 season when they clash at the Stade du Moustoir on Sunday lunchtime.
Les Merlus claimed a memorable opening-day success on Rennes' turf last time out, while Les Gones were too good for newly-promoted Ajaccio.
We say: Lorient 0-2 Lyon
With Lyon potentially welcoming all of their injured crop back in time for Sunday's game, Bosz could have some enviable attacking options in his ranks, and Lacazette already looks like a man refreshed and ready to kick on back in his homeland.
Lorient did have to rely on an own goal to get the better of Rennes, but their defensive resilience was admirable, so Lyon cannot expect to carve their way through the Merlus rearguard at will.

Ajaccio vs. Lens (Sunday, 2.00pm)
Ajaccio will welcome Lens to the Stade Francois Coty for their Ligue 1 encounter on Sunday afternoon.
The newly-promoted hosts' first game in France's top-flight for eight years ended in defeat last weekend, while Lens secured a home victory.
We say: Ajaccio 1-2 Lens
Despite losing some key players this summer, Lens should still be a cut above their newly-promoted opponents.
However, the hosts will fight hard to avoid defeat and will make Haise's side work for a second successive victory.

Auxerre vs. Angers (Sunday, 2.00pm)
Auxerre and Angers will both aim to pick up their first wins of the 2022-23 Ligue 1 season in Sunday afternoon's showdown at the Stade de l'Abbe-Deschamps.
The newly-promoted hosts were thumped 4-1 by Lille upon their return to the top flight, while Les Scoistes' battle with Nantes ended goalless.
We say: Auxerre 0-1 Angers
Keeping out the Coupe de France winners was a notable feat for Angers, who will be desperate to prove that their away-day frailties are a thing of the past this weekend.
A trip to a leaky Auxerre side is certainly the perfect place to do that, and with Boufal and Bentaleb both back in the fold and raring to go, Les Scoistes should do enough to get over the line.

Reims vs. Clermont (Sunday, 2.00pm)
After both sides suffered a heavy defeat on the opening day of the season, Reims and Clermont will be looking for a response when they face off at the Stade Auguste-Delaune II on Sunday.
The hosts lost 4-1 to Marseille in their opening game, while Clermont were thrashed 5-0 by defending champions Paris Saint-Germain.
We say: Reims 1-1 Clermont
The most recent meeting between the two sides ended in a draw, and with both clubs suffering heavy defeats on the opening weekend of the season, we think that they will be content with a point apiece.

Troyes vs. Toulouse (Sunday, 2.00pm)
Troyes will welcome Toulouse to the Stade de l'Aube for their Ligue 1 encounter on Sunday afternoon.
Neither side managed to bag a win on the opening weekend of the season, so both teams will be hoping to correct that when they face each other in Northeastern France.
We say: Troyes 1-1 Toulouse
With both sides keen to avoid defeat, we can envisage a share of the spoils in Troyes on Sunday.
There is little separating these sides in terms of quality, even if the visitors may surprise a few this season as they look to avoid an instant return to Ligue 2.

Nice vs. Strasbourg (Sunday, 4.05pm)
Nice will welcome Strasbourg to the Allianz Riviera for their Ligue 1 encounter on Sunday afternoon.
These sides finished fifth and sixth respectively last season, so it should be a high-quality affair on the Southeastern coast of France.
We say: Nice 2-1 Strasbourg
We expect to see an open, entertaining game in Nice on Sunday, with the hosts perhaps edging it.
While Strasbourg's front two is up there with the best Ligue 1 has to offer, Nice arguably have a stronger collective balance, and with Favre back at the helm they could be set for a strong season.

Brest vs. Marseille (Sunday, 7.45pm)
Marseille will aim to kick off the 2022-23 Ligue 1 season with back-to-back wins when they travel to the Stade Francis Le-Ble to take on Brest on Sunday evening.
Igor Tudor's side ran out 4-1 winners over Reims on the opening day of the season, while Les Pirates' efforts were in vain during a 3-2 loss to Lens.
We say: Brest 1-3 Marseille
A clash between two sides who simply love to attack has all the makings of an enthralling affair this weekend, unless the footballing gods throw a drab goalless stalemate our way.
Such an eventuality should not occur at the Stade Francis Le-Ble, where a full-strength Marseille side ought to march to their second win of the season in convincing fashion.
