Ligue 1 stats and tips

Lens v Le Havre - Win / Draw / Win - home win

Most of us have heard of 'the wisdom of the crowd', and our hive of members may just be wiser than most. On Friday, 8 have decided to bet on Lens to claim victory over Le Havre at Stade Felix Bollaert-Delelis. Backing the home win at odds of 1.44 from some of the UK's leading bookmakers, available on KickOff, they'll be praying P. Sage delivers a masterclass and delivers that all-important result.

Paris FC v Marseille - Win / Draw / Win - away win

Winning on a visit to Stade Sebastien Charlety is always difficult, but evidently R. De Zerbi has shown enough as Marseille boss to convince KO's tipsters that he’s able to guide his team to just that - 6 have have tipped the away win in Saturday’s Ligue 1 clash between Paris FC and R. De Zerbi. If you wanted to follow their lead, top odds of 1.91 are currently on offer.

Lorient v Nantes - Both Teams To Score & Result - draw

Stade du Moustoir is the backdrop as Lorient and Nantes meet on Saturday evening, in what might just be a proper ding-dong battle. O. Pantaloni's side have the highest number of score draws of any club in the league - 6 in 19 games. An extension of that record has best odds of 4.60.

Monaco v Rennes - Double Chance - away win or draw

Being a football fan can be draining, and Monaco’s dogged old follows know that feeling especially well at the moment. Their club, led by S. Pocognoli, has not won any of their last 5 Ligue 1 matches, and few will be expecting them to end that run against Rennes at Stade Louis II on Saturday night. Backing opposition manager H. Beye to add another to that list by leading his team to either a win or draw can be bet on at top odds of 1.80.

Lyon v Lille - Win / Draw / Win - home win

Bad form can be tough to shift, but that's what's required of Lille boss B. Génésio on Sunday. His side face Lyon having failed to get anything but defeat out of their last 3 Ligue 1 matches.

Angers v Metz - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under

Low scoring fixtures aren't always entirely dull, but fans of Angers have had too many chances to test that theory this term. 13 of their side's games in Ligue 1 have finished with under 2.5 goals so far - the most in the competition. Will S. Le Mignan and his Metz side be capable of adding some goalmouth action into this match on Sunday? Or will it be more of the same?

Nice v Brest - Both Teams To Score - yes

Fans at Allianz Riviera will be fully expecting goals galore on Sunday, and rightly so if Nice's recent record is to be continued. Both teams have found the net in 13 of their 19 Ligue 1 matches this season, the largest number in the competition.

Toulouse v Auxerre - Win / Draw / Win - home win

Losing streaks can be incredibly difficult to break, but that's what's required of AJ Auxerre boss C. Pélissier on Sunday. His side face Toulouse having failed to get anything but defeat out of their last 4 Ligue 1 outings.

Strasbourg v PSG - Win / Draw / Win - away win

It's all eyes on Paris Saint-Germain in recent weeks. They've beaten the opposition in 5 consecutive Ligue 1 matches, and L. Martínez García will be going all out to keep that run going as they face Strasbourg at Stade de la Meinau on Sunday evening.

Metz v Lille - Double Chance - away win or draw

Metz simply have not been able to find a way past Lille in the Ligue 1 in recent years. The two teams have played on 10 occasions since 2017, and Lille have been unbeaten in them all. Friday's game at Stade Saint-Symphorien could be a tricky one for S. Le Mignan & co.

Lens v Rennes - Double Chance - home win or draw

Rennes have consistently struggled against Lens in the Ligue 1 in recent years. The two sides have met on 11 occasions since 2020, and Lens have gone unbeaten in them all. Saturday's game at Stade Felix Bollaert-Delelis could be another hard one for H. Beye & co.

Brest v Lorient - Both Teams To Score & Result - draw

Stade Francis-Le Ble is the backdrop as Lorient and Stade Brestois 29 go head-to-head on Saturday evening, in what could prove to be a real crowd-pleaser. O. Pantaloni's side have the highest number of BTTS + draws of any team in the league - 6 in 19 games. An extension of that record can be backed at 4.50.

Nantes v Lyon - Double Chance - away win or draw

Nantes have consistently struggled against Lyon in the Ligue 1 in recent years. The two teams have met on 11 occasions since 2020, and Lyon have gone unbeaten in them all. Saturday's game at La Beaujoire-Louis-Fonteneau could be a really difficult one for L. Ferreira de Castro & co.

Nice v Monaco - Both Teams To Score - yes

Fans at Allianz Riviera may be anticipating action at both ends on Sunday, and they're right to, if Nice's recent record is anything to go by. Both teams have found the net in 13 of their 19 Ligue 1 matches this season, the largest number in the competition.

Auxerre v Paris FC - Half Time / Full Time - away+away

AJ Auxerre will be looking to avoid adding to the 8 matches they have already lost at both the break and the final whistle this campaign when they face Paris FC on Sunday. C. Pélissier's side already top the rest of Ligue 1 in that department, and won't want to make their record any worse. Opposing boss S. Gilli will be licking his lips, however.

Angers v Toulouse - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under

Low scoring games aren't always entirely dull, but fans of Angers have had too many chances to test that theory this term. 13 of their side's games in Ligue 1 have finished with under 2.5 goals so far - the most in the competition. Will C. Martínez Novell and his Toulouse side be capable of adding some goals into this clash on Sunday? Or will it be more of the same?

Le Havre v Strasbourg - Half Time / Full Time - draw+draw

It might not be a record they're all that proud of, but Le Havre currently lead all other teams in Ligue 1 when it comes to fixtures in which they have been level at both halftime and fulltime this term, with their tally now at 5 in 19 outings. They will put that unwanted consistency to the test versus Strasbourg at Stade Oceane on Sunday, in a match that could see yet another tie.

PSG v Marseille - Half Time / Full Time - home+home

R. De Zerbi won't be relishing the prospect of playing Paris Saint-Germain in Ligue 1 on Sunday. L. Martínez García's side have been ahead at HT and gone on to secure the win at fulltime more often than any other side in the Ligue 1 this season - 10 times in total. That stat suggests there's every chance of it being a demoralising evening for Marseille, and that backing Paris Saint-Germain in the HT FT market could be a strong bet at odds of 2.10.
