Since Qatar bought PSG, only three French championship titles have escaped the capital club: to the benefit of Montpellier in 2012, Monaco in 2017 and Lille in 2021. In 2025, will Ligue 1 let the Parisians down? Possible if we are to believe some observers, who consider the competition from OM in particular to be very credible this season.

With one caveat, however, that could potentially be erased: “ My question is this: will the Vélodrome, known for its fervor, be patient with Wahi? Because against Reims, he prevented his team from winning by missing at least three clear chances, and he came off under whistles. If the Vélodrome is in tune with its coach and knows how to be patient, then Marseille will be unbeatable, also, at home. “A team that is unbeatable, at home and away, can certainly claim the title…
