Reading the round
French rounds run Friday to Sunday with the bulk on Saturday evening and Sunday afternoon. Kick-offs are later than in England, which puts the main Sunday fixture in the early evening across most of Europe.
Form here counts only finished matches, so a club with a game in hand looks worse than it is. Home and away records matter more than they look in a league this early: two home wins from two says less about a club than the same two results in November will.
Betting on this round
We do not publish odds. Prices move through the week and a number printed on a page is out of date by the time anyone reads it, so what follows is the shape of the round rather than a set of figures.
The fixtures worth a second look are the ones where the table and the form disagree: a club sitting high after a soft opening, or one near the bottom that has played the two hardest away games available. Both get priced on position, and position this early is mostly a function of who they have already faced.
