Ligue 1 key statistics

The first thing to know about Ligue 1 is that it favours teams playing at home. Last season, half of the matches saw the home teams win , for 25% of draws. A figure in the average major championships, and that will have to be taken into account before watching the 2017-2018 season. The other number to watch is the average of goals. For several seasons it has continued to increase in France, reaching 2.6 goals on average last season . A fact that gives pleasure, and that will of course have to be in mind when seeking a reliable prognosis on the French football championship.

What to know before betting on Ligue 1

To be an expert in Ligue 1 predictions, there's nothing like dwelling on the highlights. For example, last year, the most popular scores were 1-1, 1-0 and 2-0. 37% of the matches have won two or more goals. A stat that will be important in 2017-2018, as it is often around 3.50 odds in the bookmakers.

Next, know that it will be smart to bet on the scorers during the various matches of Ligue 1 Conforama. Over the past 5 seasons, 35 players have passed the 15 goal mark on a season , from Zlatan to Lacazette via Gomis or Aubameyang. If you spot a man in a team, do not hesitate to bet on one of his goals, the rating is often interesting in the market.

Finally, take into account that the favourites lose too seldom in front of weaker teams. For example last year, Monaco lost only once against a club ranked after the tenth place, PSG twice and Lyon likewise. Surprises are uncommon. So do not bet on the outsiders when they face the big clubs. Words of specialists.
