French Ligue 1 is set to kick off in August and teams gearing up for another thrilling battle for the title, the big question is whether Paris Saint-Germain will struggle without Kylian Mbappe, who has moved to Spanish giants Real Madrid.
1xbet has given Paris Saint-Germain 1.30 odds for the Les Parisiens to win this season’s Ligue 1 title.
Who Will Win the Ligue 1 Title in 2024/25?
PSG once again dominated the domestic league last season, finishing at the top with 76 points, 9 points ahead of second-placed Monaco. The French giants will begin their title defense against Le Havre on August 18.
Monaco will have another chance to chase PSG, who dominated last season. Despite the departure of their talented star Kylian Mbappe to Real Madrid, betting offices still believe PSG will retain the title. Luis Enrique has taken over the team, developing young players, making the squad full of promising youth talent despite the exits of Lionel Messi and Neymar at the end of the 2023/24 season.

Who will make top four?
With PSG expected to win their fourth consecutive title, it’s clear that Enrique’s men will be among the top four. The big question is, who will secure the other three spots?
Monaco showed strong performance in the 2023/24 Ligue 1 season, finishing second with 67 points, making them a top contender for the upcoming season. Their ability to secure this position highlights their competitiveness and resilience. Despite 7 losses, Monaco demonstrated their potential by maintaining consistency throughout the season.
Their determination to correct mistakes and build on past successes puts them in a positive position for the new season. Likely to leverage their strengths with a strong squad and strategic improvements, Monaco is poised to be a formidable force in the league. With a solid foundation and lessons learned from the past season, Monaco is well-prepared to secure a top-four finish and potentially challenge PSG for the title again, reaffirming their status as one of Ligue 1’s elite teams.
Lyon aims to build on their achievements in the second half of the season under coach Pierre Seg, who is set to sign a new contract. Despite the added challenge of competing in the Europa League, Lyon has shown a strong intent to secure a top-four finish. Confidence in their ability to secure a place among the top four, possibly replacing Lille who finished fourth last season, is high. With renewed momentum and strategic leadership, Lyon is well-positioned for a successful 2024/25 season.
Brest is likely to secure the fourth spot on the table, having shown their character by challenging PSG in both home and away matches. Their impressive performance throughout the season allowed them to finish third last season. With their resilience and ability to challenge top teams, Brest is well-placed to maintain their strong form and secure a top-four finish in the upcoming season.
- Paris Saint-Germain 1.03
- Lyon 1.909
- AS Monaco 2.02
- Lille 2.75
Who will be relegated?
Auxerre, Angers, and Saint-Etienne have secured promotion to Ligue 1 for the 2024/25 season. Auxerre and Angers return to the top flight after a one-year absence, having finished first and second respectively in the 2023/24 Ligue 2 season. Saint-Etienne also returns after a two-year absence, finishing their season successfully in Ligue 2.
These promotions promise to add excitement and competitiveness to the upcoming season. However, newly promoted teams often struggle and face relegation battles.
For the 2024/25 season, Auxerre, Saint-Etienne, and Troyes are expected to be in danger of relegation. Despite their recent promotions, Auxerre and Saint-Etienne might struggle to adapt to the intensity and quality of Ligue 1 after being in Ligue 2. Similarly, Troyes, who narrowly avoided relegation last season, will need significant improvements to ensure their survival. Without major reinforcements and strategic adjustments, these teams are likely to face a tough battle to stay in the top tier.

2024/25 Ligue 1 predicted top scorer
Last season’s top scorers were Kylian Mbappe with 27 goals, followed by Alexandre Lacazette and Jonathan David with 19 goals each, and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang with 17 goals. With Mbappe no longer in the league, Lacazette now has a great opportunity to become the top scorer. His consistent performance and proven goal-scoring ability make him a strong contender for the Ligue 1 top scorer title.
- Alexandre Lacazette 2.2
- Jonathan David 3.7
- Aubameyang 10
