A historic Ligue 1 day…

It was not good to entertain in Ligue 1 this weekend…

The tone was set from the opening match of this 4^e day of Ligue 1. After two convincing victories against Lens and Lyon, PSG hoped to confirm their progress against OGC Nice at the Parc des Princes. But, the French champions fell from a height by losing 3-2 against the Aiglons.

As a result, no team ultimately managed to win at home throughout the weekend, with neither OM nor OL managing, on Sunday, to avoid zero points for the home teams.

Such a series of poor performances at home is rare. In the history of the championship, this is only the fourth time that neither has won at home after the 38th day of the 1966/67 season, the 9th of the 2004/05 financial year and the 1st day of the 2021/22 season.
