Ligue 1
France's top flight and one of Europe's great exporters of talent, so squads can change sharply from one season to the next — the point where historical data needs the most care. The bottom two are relegated directly and the 16th-placed club faces a play-off.
Ligue 1 2023/2024: Paris Saint Germain finished top on 76 points, 9 ahead of Monaco.
Goals per match: 2.70. Home wins 39%, draws 27%, away wins 34%; both teams scored in 54% of matches and 53% went over 2.5 goals.
