Another Ligue 1 fixture this weekend has been rescheduled due to anticipated nationwide protests in France, with Olympique Lyonnais' clash against Angers the latest match to be moved. The change comes at the request of local authorities, as reported by RMC. Originally scheduled for Saturday at 21:45, the encounter at Groupama Stadium has been pushed back to Sunday at 18:15. The league announced that the decision was taken following an official request from the Rhone Prefecture.  This becomes the third fixture of the matchday to be shifted, following Nice vs Rennes and Lorient vs Brest. The match in Nice will now be played a day earlier on Friday night, while the Breton derby between Lorient and Brest has been rescheduled for Monday at 21:45.
