From PSG to Lens, the crazy stat at the top of the rankings

At the start of November, eleven days of Ligue 1 have already been played. That’s a little less than a third of the championship.

Unsurprisingly,
Paris Saint-Germain is in the lead, with 24 units on the clock.
In the rankingthe capital club is only two points ahead of its direct pursuers, AS Monaco and Racing Club de Lens.

Barring a cataclysm, the capital club should win a fourteenth title in Ligue 1. According to sports betting sites, the odds for this to happen are only 1.15 to one. These see OM once again finish runner-up to the Rouge et Bleu at the end of the season.

Ligue 1, a podium identical to last season?

The odds for Roberto De Zerbi’s men to win a first French championship title since 2010 are eight to one. AS Monaco, currently fifth in the standings, should finish on the third step of the podium if the bookmakers are to be believed.

As for relegation, FC Metz is considered the club with the best chance of going down to Ligue 2. The Lorraine team is likely to find themselves in the lower tier along with Angers, while Auxerre could compete in the play-offs.
