Marine Le Pen is closing the gap between rival Emmanuel Macron in the latest French election poll after the centrist was accused of taking victory for granted.
Macron is still predicted a win on May 7, but his share of the vote could be 59 per cent, down four points, according to an Odoxa survey.
Marine Le Pen is on 41 per cent, up four points from earlier in the week.
The poll also showed 40 per cent of supporters of the defeated first-round French presidential candidate Jean-Luc Melenchon would vote Emmanuel Macron, while half of Francois Fillon voters would do the same.
More than 40 percent of Melenchon voters plan to abstain.
An opinion poll on Friday predicted Macron would beat Le Pen by 60 percent to 40 percent in the run-off vote.
