Buoyed by a hard-fought 1-0 win over Rennes, Lorient will look to give fans yet another reason for celebration when they take on Olympique Lyon at Stade du Moustoir on Sunday.

Montpellier

PSG will look to build on a 5-0 win over Clermont when they take on Montpellier in their first home game of the season. Les Parisiens rolled over Pascal Gastien’s men in their opener without Kylian Mbappe, who faces race against clock to be fit for Satursday’s clash.

Lille

After sharing the spoils with Angers on Matchday 1, Nantes will look to record their first win of the season when they host Lille to their Stade de la Beaujoire on Friday evening. Les Canaris totally deserved to pick up one point from their opener, but they will have a much bigger fish to fry against les Dogues. There are no fresh injury worries in the hoe team ahead of the ... Read More...

Reims

Stade Velodrome will host Sunday’s Ligue 1 opener between Olympique Marseille and Reims. OM are on a quest to put an end to PSG’s dominance in the French top flight, but that is easier said than done. The club chiefs have signed permanent deals with the likes of Lopez, Guendouzi, Suarez, Milik, Clauss, Toure, and Under in the summer transfer window, and it is no wonder t... Read More...

Troyes

Montpellier will be looking to kick off the 2022/2023 Ligue 1 campaign in style when they host Troyes to their Stade de la Mosson on Sunday. La Paillade failed to impress in pre-season, with the team losing each of their five warm-up games, and it is no surprise the odds for away win have been dropping.
