France Ligue 1 Betting Predictions, Tips and Odds

Ligue 1 stats and tips

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

Monaco have enjoyed plenty of success on their travels over the years, and our intrepid tipsters evidentally believe they can find more, as 8 of them are backing S. Pocognoli and his boys to earn away win as they visit Paris FC at Stade Sebastien Charlety in Ligue 1 on Friday evening. The home fans may not be happy about it, but that’s what they reckon will happen. If you felt the urge to go with their tip, 1.91 is about the best value you’ll find.

Marseille v Metz - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - over

Entertainment is the name of the game, and there's reason to expect plenty of it when Marseille and Metz face off on Friday night in Ligue 1. H. Beye and S. Le Mignan's squads know how to score at this level, and KickOff's smart tipsters believe they will again at Stade Vélodrome. 8 of them have saved a bet the match to contain over 2.5 goals before full time. 1.44 is the highest price we've found for that tip, and it could well be one to watch.

Auxerre v Nantes - Half Time / Full Time - draw+draw

It may not be a record they're particularly enamoured with, but AJ Auxerre currently lead all opposition in Ligue 1 when it comes to matches drawn at both the break and the final whistle this campaign, with their tally now at 8 in 28 games. They will put that unwanted consistency on the line against Nantes at Stade de l'Abbe-Deschamps on Saturday, in a match that could see yet another tie.

Rennes v Angers - Win / Draw / Win - home win

Angers will, it could be argued, have the opportunity to play without pressure as face a tough trip to Roazhon Park. Home victories occur most of the time in Ligue 1, and the expectation is that Rennes and their manager H. Beye will grab another one as they square up against A. Dujeux's side on Saturday night. 10 of KO's tipsters have predicted that outcome, making the most of top odds of 1.40, and our 59.31 gives a 59.31% chance of them being proved correct.

Nice v Le Havre - Over / Under 0.5 Goals - under

Fans travelling to Allianz Riviera this Sunday to watch Le Havre and Nice might already be concerned about a tedious afternoon, and with good reason. D. Digard's charges have produced 5 goalless draws this campaign, more than any team in Ligue 1. Will anybody find the net? You can bet against it at leading odds of 10.00.

Toulouse v Lille - Both Teams To Score - yes

When Toulouse and Lille have met in the Ligue 1, goals have been the order of the day. Both sides have found the net in each of their last 5 meetings, so the Stadium Municipal, Toulouse faithful could be in for another nail-biter on Sunday afternoon.

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

Groupama Stadium plays host as Lorient and Lyon meet on Sunday evening, in what could well be a tight affair. O. Pantaloni's side have the highest number of score draws of any club in the competition - 10 in 28 outings. An extension of that record can be backed at 5.00.

Lens v Toulouse - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - over

If you're not busy on Friday evening, then the clash between Lens and Toulouse could be the one for you. P. Sage's team lead Ligue 1 in most matches with over 2.5 goals so far this season. 19 of their Ligue 1 games have already gone that way. With a record like that, surely only an entirely negative game plan from C. Martínez Novell's men could prevent more of the same.

Lorient v Marseille - Double Chance - away win or draw

Lorient have consistently struggled against Marseille in the Ligue 1 in recent years. The two sides have met on 13 occasions since 2015, and Marseille have been unbeaten in them all. Saturday's game at Stade du Moustoir could be a tricky one for O. Pantaloni & co.

Angers v Le Havre - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under

Low scoring encounters aren't always boring, but fans of Angers have had plenty of opportunity to test that theory this campaign. 21 of their side's matches in Ligue 1 have finished with under 2.5 goals so far - the most in the competition. Will D. Digard and his Le Havre team be capable of adding some goalmouth action into this match on Saturday? Or will it be same old same old?

Lille v Nice - Over / Under 5.5 Goals - over

Lille have been Ligue 1's showmen this season, at least in when it comes to producing goal-filled fixtures. No other side comes close to their record of having taken part in 5 games with at least 6 goals scored this season. Can they make that 6 when they face Nice on Saturday night? With odds of 13.00 on offer, it could be one to watch.

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

Monaco have dominated AJ Auxerre in the Ligue 1 of late, with a run of 5 straight wins against them. C. Pélissier will be desperate to stop the rot, while S. Pocognoli will be hopeful of more of the same on Sunday afternoon.

Metz v Paris FC - Both Teams To Score - yes

When Metz and Paris FC have met in the league, goals have generally followed. Both teams have found the net in each of their last 5 clashes, so the Stade Saint-Symphorien faithful could be in for another classic on Sunday afternoon.

Nantes v Brest - Win / Draw / Win - home win

Losing streaks can be incredibly difficult to break, but that's exactly what must be done by Stade Brestois 29 boss E. Roy on Sunday. His team faces Nantes having been beaten in each of their last 3 Ligue 1 matches.

Strasbourg v Rennes - Double Chance - home win or draw

Every now and then we get a golden spell in football, and it has now been a while since since Strasbourg’s merry fans watched their team suffer defeat in Ligue 1. L. Rosenior’s squad is now unbeaten in 7 games, and he will be full of belief that they can keep that streak running against Rennes at Stade de la Meinau on Sunday afternoon. Top odds of 1.50 can be grabbed to back Strasbourg to get the win or the draw.

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

Paris Saint-Germain have dominated Lyon in the Ligue 1 recently, putting together a run of 5 straight wins against them. P. Rodrigues Fonseca will be doing all he can to turn the tide, while L. Martínez García will be hoping for more of the same on Sunday evening.

PSG v Nantes - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - over

We may have a high-scoring affair on our hands when Paris Saint-Germain and Nantes meet on Sunday afternoon in Ligue 1. L. Martínez García and L. Ferreira de Castro's teams know how to score at this level, and KO's community of users have faith in them to illustrate that at Parc des Princes. 26 of them are betting on the game to have 3 goals or more in total. 1.36 is the highest price among the UK's top bookmakers for this bet, and it's definitely one we like the look for too.
