S i x - t i m e French champions Lyon will bid to consoli-date their league lead with an away win against third-from-bottom Lens this weekend.

the weekend.
Lens, who lie third from bottom of the league with just 20 points from 19 matches, have a full squad available for the encounter.
Juninho, however, played down the Cup loss and said Lyon would be up for the Lens showdown.
"We didn't lack desire but concentration (against Le Mans). It was there for the winning. It's a shame to be knocked out in the quarterfinals of a competition in which we played the final last season, especially against a team that included many second-choice players," said the Brazilian.
"Butwemustnotover-dramatise
things. We're still in three competitions." he said. "We must react, starting on Sunday at Lens.
"We'll have to be careful but if we play at our level, we're capable ofwinning."
Second-placed Nancy, who face Nice in Sunday's other game - their fifth in two weeks, will be seeking to bounce back from a 3-0 Cup reverse at home to Lens.
Central defender Gerald Cid will likely make his debut for Nice after signing from English Premier League club Bolton.

Bordeaux, behind Nancy on points difference, travel to Lc Mans, while fourth-placed Valenciennes face a tricky trip to Marseille.
