Ligue 1 stats and tips
Nice v PSG - Both Teams To Score - yes
Paris Saint-Germain followers have been spoilt with drama at each end when their team plays in Ligue 1, with both teams having scored in all of their last 5 games. Nice on Wednesday night could be another thriller.
Reims v Marseille - Both Teams To Score - yes
Marseille supporters have been spoilt with drama at each end when their side plays in Ligue 1, with both sides having scored at least one goal in each of their last 5 matches. Reims on Wednesday night may well be another goal-fest.
Le Havre v Marseille - Both Teams To Score & Result - draw
Stade Oceane is the venue as Marseille and Le Havre clash on Sunday evening, in what could well be a proper ding-dong battle. J. Gasset's side have the most score draws of any team in the division - 9 in 32 games. An extension of that record is available at 4.50.
Lyon v Strasbourg - Over / Under 4.5 Goals - over
If you're in the market for entertainment this Sunday, you should consider heading down to Groupama Stadium. 10 of Lyon's Ligue 1 fixtures this term have finished with more than 5 goals - the most in the competition. Who would bet against an extension of that record, especially with odds of 3.80 available?
Lens v Montpellier - Over / Under 4.5 Goals - under
Lens's recent outings in Ligue 1 have delivered goals and thrills along the way, but it has been a while since Franck Haise's side provided their supporters with the kind of wild ride they'll remember for years to come. There have been under 4.5 goals in every one of their last 10 outings.
Monaco v Nantes - Over / Under 4.5 Goals - under
It's not exactly common to be treated to a 5+ goal thriller, but Nantes's loyal fans have now waited 27 games to see their side serve one up. A frustrating statistic in anyone's book. Could the streak come to an end on Sunday evening, as they face Adi Hutter's Monaco at Stade Louis II? With odds of 1.30 on there being under 4.5 goals, the UK's leading bookmakers clearly have their doubts.
Toulouse v Brest - Both Teams To Score - yes
Toulouse fans have become used to drama at each end when their team plays in Ligue 1, with both teams having scored at least one goal in every one of their last 5 outings. Stade Brestois 29 on Sunday night may well be another thriller.
Lorient v Clermont - Win / Draw / Win - away win
Losing streaks can be incredibly difficult to break, but that's exactly what must be done by Lorient boss R. Le Bris on Sunday. His side face Clermont Foot having lost each of their last 7 Ligue 1 matches.
Metz v PSG - Win / Draw / Win - away win
Bad form can be tough to shift, but that's the task facing Metz boss L. Bölöni on Sunday. His players face Paris Saint-Germain having failed to get anything but defeat out of their last 3 Ligue 1 matches.
Lille v Nice - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under
Low scoring matches aren't always boring, but fans of Nice have had too many chances to test that theory this season. 21 of their side's games in Ligue 1 have finished with under 2.5 goals so far - the most in the competition. Will P. Rodrigues Fonseca and his Lille team be capable of adding some goals into this encounter on Sunday? Or will it be same old same old?
