Ligue 1 stats and tips
Monaco v Lille - Win / Draw / Win - home win
Lille will, it could be argued, have the opportunity to play without pressure as face a tough trip to Stade Louis II. Home victories occur regularly in Ligue 1, and the expectation is that Monaco and their boss F. Kasmirski will grab another one as they do battle with Davide Ancelotti's troops on Sunday afternoon. 6 of our users have bet on the home win, taking advantage of top odds of 2.05, and our 50.56 suggests there's 50.56% chance of them celebrating another win come full time.
Auxerre v Le Mans - Over / Under 3.5 Goals - under
Le Mans travel to AJ Auxerre for this Sunday afternoon clash. 5 of our tipsters believe it will finish with fewer than 4 goals. That could mean anything from a bore draw to an entertaining, end-to-end 2-1 win for one side or another. It does rule out a true goalfest though.
Angers v Lorient - Half Time / Full Time - away+away
Angers will be hoping not to add to the 4 games they have already lost at both the break and the final whistle this term when they take on Lorient on Sunday. S. Gilli's team already lead the rest of Ligue 1 in that category, and won't want to make it any worse. Opposing boss A. Dujeux may not feel the same way, however.
Marseille v Le Havre - Win / Draw / Win - home win
Le Havre will be feeling hopeful yet realistic as they prepare for a trip to Stade Vélodrome. Home wins occur regularly in Ligue 1, and it's assumed by many that Marseille and their coach B. Génésio will grab exactly that as they do battle with D. Digard's charges on Sunday afternoon. 39 of KO's bettors have bet on the home win, making the most of best odds of 1.57, and KickOff's predictive algorithm suggests there's 66.29% chance of them celebrating another win come full time.
Rennes v Strasbourg - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - over
Expect entertainment, excitement and plenty of goalmouth action when Rennes and Strasbourg go head-to-head on Sunday afternoon in Ligue 1. F. Haise and H. Carvalho Oliveira's XIs have ample talent in attacking areas, and our hive of tipsters believe they will again at Roazhon Park. 10 of them are tipping the game to have 3 goals or more during the 90 mins. 1.44 is the most-enticing price available for this tip, and the fans in the ground will enjoy their afternoon as much as the tipsters if it comes in.
Toulouse v Troyes - Win / Draw / Win - home win
Like most fans around the globe, Toulouse's dedicated fans expect high standards from their side and, in the opinion of KickOff's users, they may just be going home happy on Sunday afternoon. 59 of our users are tipping that J. Askou's XI will get the win as S. Dumont's Troyes visit Stadium Municipal, Toulouse. Will you be backing the same?
PSG v Lyon - Win / Draw / Win - home win
Lyon will be under no illusions as to the scale of the task at hand as they visit Parc des Princes. Home wins occur frequently in Ligue 1, and it's assumed by many that Paris Saint-Germain and their coach L. Martínez García will deliver another one as they square up against P. Rodrigues Fonseca's side on Monday evening. 35 of our bettors have bet on the home win, making the most of best odds of 1.45, and KickOff's predictive algorithm places a 69.87% chance of them winning with their bets.
Le Havre v PSG - Double Chance - away win or draw
Le Havre have consistently struggled against Paris Saint-Germain in the Ligue 1 in recent years. The two teams have played on 6 occasions since 2023, and Paris Saint-Germain have remained unbeaten in them all. Friday's game at Stade Oceane could be a really difficult one for D. Digard & co.
Lille v Lens - Both Teams To Score - yes
Lens supporters have become used to action at each end when their side plays in Ligue 1, with both teams having found the net in each of their last 5 games. Lille on Friday night may well be another thriller.
Nice v Rennes - Over / Under 3.5 Goals - under
Supporters have seen 3 goals or less in each of Nice's last 14 Ligue 1 matches. As they clash with F. Haise's Rennes at Allianz Riviera on Saturday, the smart money should be backing another low-scoring affair.
Lorient v Brest - Both Teams To Score - yes
Fans at Stade du Moustoir will be anticipating plenty goalmouth action on Saturday, and rightly so if Stade Brestois 29's past record is to be continued. Both teams have scored in 7 of their 8 Ligue 1 matches this season, more than any side in the competition.
Lyon v Angers - Double Chance - home win or draw
Angers simply have not been able to find a way past Lyon in the Ligue 1 in recent years. The two teams have met on 7 occasions since 2022, and Lyon have gone unbeaten in them all. Saturday's game at Groupama Stadium could be a tricky one for S. Gilli & co.
Troyes v Le Mans - Both Teams To Score & Result - draw
Stade de l'Aube is the backdrop as Le Mans and Troyes meet on Saturday evening, in what could well be a proper ding-dong battle. P. Videira's side have the highest number of BTTS + draws of any club in the league - 3 in 8 outings. An extension of that record can be backed at 4.33.
Strasbourg v Auxerre - Double Chance - home win or draw
AJ Auxerre have found something of a bogey team in Strasbourg in the Ligue 1 in recent years. The two sides have clashed on 5 occasions since 2023, and Strasbourg have been unbeaten in them all. Sunday's game at Stade de la Meinau could be a really difficult one for W. Still & co.
Paris FC v Monaco - Half Time / Full Time - home+home
F. Kasmirski won't be too excited about the prospect of playing Paris FC in Ligue 1 on Sunday. L. Rosenior's side have been winning at halftime and gone on to claim victory at final whistle more often than any other team in the Ligue 1 this term - 4 times in total. That stat suggests there's every chance of it being a tough afternoon for Monaco, and that backing Paris FC in the HT FT market would be a great shout at odds of 3.60.
Marseille v Toulouse - Double Chance - home win or draw
Toulouse have consistently struggled against Marseille in the Ligue 1 in recent years. The two teams have met on 22 occasions since 2013, and Marseille have been unbeaten in them all. Sunday's game at Stade Vélodrome could be another hard one for J. Askou & co.
Auxerre v Paris FC - Half Time / Full Time - away+away
W. Still won't be looking forward to going up against Paris FC in Ligue 1 on Saturday. L. Rosenior's side have led at the break and gone on to win at fulltime more frequently than any other club in the Ligue 1 this term - 4 times in total. That record suggests it could well be a demoralising afternoon for AJ Auxerre, and that backing Paris FC in the halftime fulltime market could be a strong bet at odds of 2.88.
PSG v Troyes - Double Chance - home win or draw
Troyes have found something of a bogey team in Paris Saint-Germain in the Ligue 1 in recent years. The two clubs have played on 8 occasions since 2015, and Paris Saint-Germain have gone unbeaten in them all. Saturday's game at Parc des Princes could be a tricky one for S. Dumont & co.
Rennes v Lille - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under
Low scoring fixtures aren't always tedious affairs, but fans of Lille have had too many chances to test that theory this term. 5 of their side's encounters in Ligue 1 have finished with under 2.5 goals so far - the most in the competition. Will F. Haise and his Rennes team be able to inject goalmouth action into this clash on Sunday? Or will it be same old same old?
Angers v Nice - Over / Under 5.5 Goals - over
Angers have been Ligue 1's showmen this season, at least in when it comes to serving up high scoring matches. No other club comes close to their record of having played in 2 games with at least 6 goals scored this season. Can they make that 3 when they take on Nice on Sunday afternoon? With odds of 9.00 on offer, it could be worth a go.
Le Mans v Monaco - Both Teams To Score & Result - draw
MMArena is the backdrop as Le Mans and Monaco go head-to-head on Sunday afternoon, in what might just be a real crowd-pleaser. P. Videira's side have the most score draws of any club in the division - 3 in 8 outings. An extension of that record has best odds of 5.00.
Lens v Marseille - Both Teams To Score - yes
Supporters at Stade Felix Bollaert-Delelis may be fully expecting plenty goalmouth action on Sunday, and rightly so if Lens's past record is anything to go by. We've seen BTTS in 7 of their 8 Ligue 1 matches this season, the largest number in the competition.
