Paris St Germain winger Ludovic Giuly has called on his team-mates to maintain their push for a Champions League place in Wednesday's trip to Nancy.
Full Time Result betting for what will be their final outing before the Christmas break has PSG at 2.10 to get the away win, with Nancy 3.75 and the draw on offer at 3.10.
Former Monaco and Barcelona winger Giuly has been a calming presence as PSG have enjoyed a fine first half of the campaign which has seen them rise to second, level on points with Le Championnat leaders Lille and third-placed Rennes.
But he insists there is more work to do before they can wind down as they continue their charge for a top-three finish.
Giuly told RTL: "If we could qualify for the Champions League that would please everyone.
"On its 40th birthday it would be a superb present for PSG.
"We are well placed but it is only halfway through the season and in Paris everyone knows things can change very quickly.
"In Paris everyone has expected us to reach the Champions League for some years now and we must continue what we are doing."
PSG manager Antoine Kombouare was relatively quiet in the transfer market over the summer but Giuly has been pleased with the players that did arrive.
He added: "The squad has not changed that much over the past three years but the three players that did come in over the summer have done well."
Nancy are still in the lower reaches of the Ligue 1 table but are on a four-match unbeaten streak.
And speculation suggests they have moved to strengthen their squad by acquiring the services of veteran goalkeeper Ronan Le Crom.
According to reports, Le Crom, 36, will join the club on 1st January as cover for the injured Gennaro Bracigliano, whose damaged Achilles will keep him out until the end of March.
