With stars such as Leo Messi, Neymar, Kylian Mbappé, Dimitri Payet, and Jonathan David, there are plenty of reasons to watch French Ligue 1 matches. Although Paris Saint Germain is currently France’s best club and has been for the last few seasons, perhaps the greatest thing about Ligue 1 soccer has been its history of parity. Over the last 15 years, there have been eight different league champions (AS Monaco, Nantes, Lyon, Bordeaux, Marseille, Lille, Montpellier, and PSG). Will PSG defend its title after dropping out of the Champions League or is it time for Marseille or Lyon to raise the trophy?

FAQ: About 2022–23 Ligue 1
Who won the most Ligue 1 titles?
Paris Saint-Germain and AS Saint-Étienne are the most successful clubs with ten league titles each, while Olympique Lyonnais is the club that has won the most consecutive titles (seven between 2002 and 2008). The current champions are Paris Saint-Germain, who won in the 2021–22 season.
Is Ligue 1 a good league?
In general, it is considered to be a strong league with many competitive teams, such as PSG, Olympique Lyonnais, and AS Monaco. These teams have a history of success in both domestic and international competitions and regularly compete in the UEFA Champions League. Lately, some claim that Ligue 1 is uncompetitive due to PSGs domination in French football and there is an obvious resource gap between the top and bottom clubs. However, Ligue 1 is a league like no other. Its weakest teams are its strongest asset, as we have seen many times so far.
Is Ligue 1 in a top 5 league?
As of 2021, Ligue 1 is one of the top national leagues, ranked fifth in Europe, behind England’s Premier League, Spain’s La Liga, Italy’s Serie A, and Germany’s Bundesliga. At some point, the Primeira Liga overtook its position, but currently, Ligue 1 is in the top five.
Who is the top Ligue 1 scorer in 2022?
The top scorers in Ligue 1 for season 2022/23 are Kylian Mbappe (PSG) and Jonathan David (LOSC Lille) both with 19 goals so far.
Why are 4 teams relegated from Ligue 1?
Ligue 1 will see major changes to it from the 2023-24 season. That season, two clubs will get promoted from Ligue 2 to Ligue 1 while four clubs will be relegated from Ligue 1. That will mean there will be 18 clubs just like in the Bundesliga. The main reason for this is purely financial as the clubs will have to share the money among fewer teams.
Does ESPN have Ligue 1?
There’s no live streaming of Ligue 1 matches but you can visit ESPN to view Ligue 1 schedules and results for all matches.
