France Ligue 1 Betting Predictions, Tips and Odds

Ligue 1 stats and tips

Brest v Marseille - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - over

If you fancy a thriller on Friday evening, then the clash between Marseille and Stade Brestois 29 could be the one for you. J. Abardonado's team lead Ligue 1 in most matches with over 2.5 goals so far this season. 15 of their Ligue 1 games have already gone that way. With form like that, surely only a parking of the bus from E. Roy's men could prevent more of the same.

Lens v Monaco - Both Teams To Score & Result - home

Monaco will be concerned that 1 goal may not be enough to claim victory over Lens on Saturday afternoon. P. Sage's men have the best record in Ligue 1 when it comes to claiming victory despite conceding (9 of their 22 outings), so focusing on defence might be the best route to victory for S. Pocognoli and his Monaco charges at Stade Felix Bollaert-Delelis.

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

KickOff's tipsters have well and truly put their weight behind the home win as Paris Saint-Germain and Metz clash in Ligue 1 on Saturday. In total 11 have backed it already, with highest odds of 1.15 proving to be enticing enough for many.

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

It may not be an honour they're especially proud of, but AJ Auxerre currently lead all opposition in Ligue 1 when it comes to matches in which they have been level at both HT and FT this term, with their tally now at 5 in 22 outings. They will put that somewhat unwelcome consistency on the line against Rennes at Stade de l'Abbe-Deschamps on Sunday, in a clash that could see yet another tie.

Angers v Lille - Double Chance - home win or draw

Trekking across the width and breadth of the country to support your club can be draining, and Lille’s long-suffering follows know that better than most right now. Their team, led by B. Génésio, has now failed to win any of their last 6 Ligue 1 matches, and there will be little hope they can end that run against Angers at Stade Raymond-Kopa on Sunday afternoon. Backing opposition manager A. Dujeux to add another to that list by guiding his side to anything other than a defeat can be bet on at top odds of 2.00.

Nantes v Le Havre - Win / Draw / Win - away win

Bad form can be tough to shift, but that's what's required of Nantes boss L. Ferreira de Castro on Sunday. His team faces Le Havre having lost each of their last 5 Ligue 1 outings.

Nice v Lorient - Both Teams To Score - yes

Supporters at Allianz Riviera may be anticipating plenty goalmouth action on Sunday, and rightly so if Nice's past record is to be continued. Both teams have scored in 14 of their 22 Ligue 1 fixtures this season, more than any side in the competition.

Strasbourg v Lyon - Both Teams To Score - yes

When Strasbourg and Lyon have met in the Ligue 1, they've delivered proper entertainment. Both teams have found the net in each of their last 9 meetings, so the Stade de la Meinau faithful could be in for another nail-biter on Sunday evening.

Strasbourg v Lens - Both Teams To Score & Result - away

Strasbourg will be aware that 1 goal is unlikely to be enough to get the win against Lens on Friday evening. P. Sage's team have the best record in Ligue 1 when it comes to winning games in which both teams are on the scoresheet (9 of their 22 games), so defence first might be the best course of action for L. Rosenior and his Strasbourg charges at Stade de la Meinau.

Rennes v Toulouse - Double Chance - away win or draw

Rennes simply have not been able to find a way past Toulouse in the Ligue 1 in recent years. The two sides have played on 6 occasions since 2023, and Toulouse have gone unbeaten in them all. Saturday's game at Roazhon Park could be a really difficult one for H. Beye & co.

Monaco v Angers - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under

Low scoring encounters aren't always tedious affairs, but fans of Angers have had plenty of opportunity to test that theory this campaign. 16 of their side's encounters in Ligue 1 have finished with under 2.5 goals so far - the most in the competition. Will S. Pocognoli and his Monaco team be able to inject goals into this match on Saturday? Or will it be same old same old?

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 sides have met on 5 occasions since 2023, and Paris Saint-Germain have gone unbeaten in them all. Saturday's game at Stade Oceane could be a tricky one for D. Digard & co.

Metz v Brest - Both Teams To Score & Result -

If you like backing goals and choosing a victor, then the upcoming clash between Metz and Stade Brestois 29 might well be worth a look. S. Le Mignan's side have lost 8 games this season in which both sides have got on the scoresheet. That's the highest number in Ligue 1.
