OGC Nice temporarily claimed the top spot in Ligue 1 by defeating Clermont 0-1, thanks to a goal by Boudaoui, who secured all three points for the team led by Francesco Farioli in the final quarter of the match.

Clermont, second-to-last in the French league, put up a fight against one of the contenders to compete at the top of the table until the end of the season. Nice struggled, and it wasn't until the 73rd minute that they managed to dismantle their opponent's defensive setup. Clermont had a chance to equalize in injury time with a shot that hit the post by Balde.

Earlier, Nice encountered the goalkeeper Mory Diaw's interventions and missed a penalty in the first half, which Laborde failed to convert, sending the shot over the crossbar. Fortunately for Nice, Boudaoui appeared near the end to capitalize on a Perraud cross and score a goal that placed his team two points ahead of Monaco and four points ahead of PSG. In this round, Monaco will face Lille, and PSG will visit Brest.
