French Ligue 1 Fixtures: FC Lorient vs Dijon FCO Preview

For this Ligue 1 match, Les Merlus welcome Dijon to the Stade Yves Allainmat-Le Moustoir on Wednesday.

The last two league matches of 'The Merlucciidaes' were delayed due to a COVID-19 outbreak at the Breton club. This is the first of those matches that have been rescheduled from January 16.

It is also a 6-pointer relegation, featuring the sides in the table on the 19th and 18th. For Lorient, a victory will see them leapfrog Dijon into the playoff relegation zone. However, a Dijon win will see them move out of the bottom 3, on goal difference, rising above Nantes.
