Ligue 1 stats and tips

Metz v Lille - Double Chance - away win or draw

Metz have consistently struggled against Lille in the Ligue 1 in recent years. The two clubs have played on 10 occasions since 2017, and Lille have remained unbeaten in them all. Friday's game at Stade Saint-Symphorien could be another hard 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 teams have played on 11 occasions since 2020, and Lens have been unbeaten in them all. Saturday's game at Stade Felix Bollaert-Delelis could be a tricky one for H. Beye & co.

Brest v Lorient - Double Chance - away win or draw

O. Pantaloni and his Lorient team have developed a useful way of getting something from pretty much every Ligue 1 game they play. They're unbeaten in 9 in Ligue 1 now, so E. Roy and his Stade Brestois 29 charges will have to be at their best if they're to stand any chance at Stade Francis-Le Ble on Saturday.

Nantes v Lyon - Win / Draw / Win - away win

It's never easy to end a losing run, but that's the task facing Nantes boss L. Ferreira de Castro on Saturday. His team faces Lyon having lost each of their last 3 Ligue 1 games.

Nice v Monaco - Both Teams To Score - yes

Supporters at Allianz Riviera will be banking on goals galore on Sunday, and rightly so if Nice's past record is to be continued. Both teams have scored in 14 of their 20 Ligue 1 matches this season, more than any side in the competition.

Auxerre v Paris FC - Both Teams To Score - no

If we trust the form book, we can back at least one defence to earn a clean sheet at Stade de l'Abbe-Deschamps on Sunday, as C. Pélissier and S. Gilli's sides clash. AJ Auxerre have had the highest number of games where one team or more has not found the net (i.e. BTTS no) in Ligue 1 so far this season - 13 out of 20 played. Both bosses will just be desperate that it isn't their them that draws a blank.

Angers v Toulouse - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under

Low scoring encounters aren't always boring, but fans of Angers have had too many chances to test that theory this campaign. 14 of their side's fixtures 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 spice into this encounter on Sunday? Or will it be yet another low scoring affair?

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

It might not be an honour they're particularly enamoured with, but Le Havre currently lead all opposition in Ligue 1 when it comes to matches drawn at both HT and FT this season, with their tally now at 5 in 20 matches. They will put that unwanted consistency on the line against Strasbourg at Stade Oceane on Sunday, in a game that could see yet another tie.

PSG v Marseille - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - over

If you fancy a thriller on Sunday evening, then the clash between Marseille and Paris Saint-Germain could be worth checking out. R. De Zerbi's team lead Ligue 1 in most matches with over 2.5 goals so far this season. 13 of their Ligue 1 games have already gone that way. With a record like that, surely only a defensive masterclass from L. Martínez García's men could ruin the spectacle.

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

It may not be an honour they're particularly proud of, but Le Havre currently lead all other teams in Ligue 1 when it comes to matches where they've been drawing at both halftime and fulltime this season, with their tally now at 5 in 20 games. They will put that unwanted consistency on the line versus Toulouse at Stade Oceane on Sunday, in a clash that could see yet another dead heat.

Lorient v Angers - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under

Low scoring matches aren't always tedious affairs, but fans of Angers have had plenty of opportunity to test that theory this campaign. 14 of their side's fixtures in Ligue 1 have finished with under 2.5 goals so far - the most in the competition. Will O. Pantaloni and his Lorient side be capable of adding some goals into this encounter on Sunday? Or will it be yet another low scoring affair?

Metz v Auxerre - Double Chance - away win or draw

Metz have found something of a bogey team in AJ Auxerre in the league in recent years. The two clubs have met on 5 occasions since 2015, and AJ Auxerre have been unbeaten in them all. Sunday's game at Stade Saint-Symphorien could be a tricky one for S. Le Mignan & co.

Lyon v Nice - Both Teams To Score - yes

Fans at Groupama Stadium will be banking on plenty goalmouth action on Sunday, and they're right to, if Nice's recent record is anything to go by. There have been a goal in both nets in 14 of their 20 Ligue 1 fixtures this season, the largest number in the competition.
