Ligue 1 leaders Paris St Germain made it 13 league games unbeaten with a 5-0 thrashing ofToulouse at the Parc Des Princes.
With Lyon, St Etienne and Angers all in action on Sunday, Laurent Blanc's men extended their advantage at the summit to 11 points while improving their goals-for tally to 31 in the process.
Ex-Manchester United midfielder Angel Di Maria set them on their way with a long-range free-kick before Zlatan Ibrahimovic bagged a brace and Lucas Moura and Ezequiel Lavezzi also found the net.
Caen moved up to second thanks to a 2-1 success over Guingamp at the Stade Michel d'Ornano.
Julien Feret's curling finish 63 minutes in set them on their way and ex-Wigan striker Andy Delort doubled the advantage nine minutes later with his fifth goal of the season.
Dorian Leveque pulled one back for the visitors late on but Caen held on to end a run of three consecutive defeats.
Lorient defeated Troyes 4-1 to climb up the sixth place in the division as Benjamin Moukandjo scored twice for Les Merlus.
Benjamin Jeannot and Didier Ndong also found the target, with Benjamin Nivet's penalty all Troyes had to show for their efforts.
Djibril Sidibe's 88th-minute equaliser earned a share of the spoils for 10-manLille, who drew 1-1 with Bastia.
Les Dogues were trailing to Gael Danic's left-footed finish and they played the final seven minutes with a one-man disadvantage after Sofiane Boufal saw red, but Sidibe's goal delivered a point.
Strugglers Montpellier and GFC Ajaccio both claimed 2-1 victories overNantes and Reims respectively.
The former, who recorded their third straight home success after picking up just one point in their opening seven fixtures, were slipping back into the bottom three until Hilton stabbed in a 90th-minute winner.
Montpellier had led through Jerome Roussillon only to see Yacine Bammou sweep in a second-half leveller.
Like Montpellier, Ajaccio have found their form of late and the triumph over Reims was their third in as many weekends. Khalid Boutaib's opener was added to by Jacques Zoua in the second half and substitute Grejohn Kyei's effort for Reims proved to be only a consolation.
Rennes clinched their first win in eight Ligue 1 matches on Friday as goals from Abdoulaye Doucoure and Gelson Fernandes secured a 2-0 victory at Angers.
Doucoure gave Rennes a flying start when powering home a header from Pedro Henrique's cross in the fourth minute and Fernandes added the visitors' second just after the hour-mark with a low shot from the edge of the penalty after Angers had half-cleared a corner.
Angers, who slipped to a third straight defeat and their first at home this season, were handed a lifeline in the 81st minute when Kamil Grosicky fouled Vincent Manceau in the penalty area, but Thomas Mangani's spot kick was saved by Rennes goalkeeper Benoit Costil.
