The 2025-2026 season of Ligue 1 will open on a shock from the first evening. On Friday August 15 at 8:45 p.m., Rennes will welcome Olympique de Marseille to Roazhon Park to officially launch this new exercise. A beautiful poster to launch a championship which promises to be once again very disputed.
The next day, three games are on the program. At 5 p.m., Lens will receive Olympique Lyonnais in a duel between two contenders in European places. At 7 p.m., Monaco will face Le Havre, while Nice will receive Toulouse at the end of Saturday day at 9:05 p.m.
PSG in prime time
Sunday, August 17, hostilities will resume at 3 p.m. with the reception of Lille by Brest. Then, make way for the traditional multiplex at 5:15 p.m. with three simultaneous games: Metz-Srasbourg, Angers-Paris FC and Auxerre-Lorient. Note the first appearance of Paris FC in the elite, facing an Angevin promoted who finds Ligue 1 after a year of absence.
The first day will end in style with a trip from Paris Saint-Germain to the lawn of FC Nantes, at the Beaujoire stadium, at 8:45 p.m. An interesting test for Luis Enrique's men facing a Nantes team in reconstruction.
In terms of broadcasting, the vast majority of meetings will be offered on Ligue 1+, the new platform launched by the LFP. The only exception: Lens-Lyon, which will be broadcast on BeIN Sports.
