Ligue 1 Top 3: 2026-27 Ante-Post Tips
Picking the top three in Ligue 1 consistently feels like one of the bigger challenges in my previews and it's no different this year. Indeed, there's little or lots of movement and there's very little consistency.
So, you really need to weigh everything up and this can lead to some of the odds being bigger.
Now, in second, I've gone for Lyon and I think they'll be the biggest contenders for the league title this season, if not for PSG, of course.
They've made some really nice signings this summer, strengthening across the board and whilst losing Endrick and Afonso Moreira is big, they have replaced their contributions well I feel.
Julian Duranville is a very solid winger, with bags of potential, whilst Mads Bidstrup and Felix Bacher add quality deeper on the pitch. My biggest tick, though, comes from Lois Openda.
The Belgian striker struggled in Italy, but he should thrive in France and I think he could be a great pick for a top goalscorer.
At almost 3/1, I think this is an incredible pick on value alone and with BetVictor offering 6/1 for them to win the league without PSG, I'd even be tempted to have a nibble at that...
Then, I've gone for Lille, who have had another good summer, this time under Davide Ancelotti - son of the legendary Don Carlo - and whilst it's a risk, I think 2/1 is a nice price for us to look at.
Their squad is largely unchanged, which is always a good thing, but they have added some quality in the form of Başar Önal and Tanguy Nianzou. It's not major, but I don't think it'll need to be.
If Ayoubb Bouaddi is to depart this summer - with Manchester City heavily interested - things could change slightly, but they'd also have a lot to play with. So, I'd back them to replace him well enough.
It's perhaps a tad more of a risky pick, even though the odds are lower, but I think that solidifies my top three.
Why Them?
When you look at the others, Marseille have lost their biggest source of goals and neither Timothy Weah, nor Hamed Traore inspires me to think that they'll be as good as last season.
Then, I think Monaco and Lens will struggle too, after sales of big stars to the Premier League. Both have taken gambles with their replacements, so they're not hopeless. However, I think my two have the proven quality.
Finishing Top 3 in Ligue 1: Why It Matters
Due to the TV rights debacle in France, resulting in tons of revenue missed out on by Ligue 1 clubs, they need all the money they can get each season. In addition to player sales, qualifying for the Champions League is a way to ease the financial pressure.
Unlike the other top five leagues, Ligue 1 is only granted three spots to the big competition each season, which is why we are talking about a top 3 and not a top 4 race here. The competition is even more fierce, as such, but it should be noted that fourth place at least gives you access to the UCL qualifiers.
