At the dawn of the 10th day of Ligue 1, the bookmakers already seem to have their idea of the outcome of the championship. According to their forecasts, the history of this 2024-2025 season is almost written.
Unsurprisingly, Paris Saint-Germain is the ultra favorite with a paltry odds of victory at 1.12. The capital club seems destined for a new coronation according to betting operators, who hardly see any competitor capable of thwarting its progress. Only AS Monaco, with a rating of 5.4, appears to be a credible outsider. The Rocher club could play spoilsport, even if the odds difference with PSG reflects a significant gap in the title probabilities.

A chasm then separates these two formations from the rest of the peloton. Olympique de Marseille and LOSC form a pursuing duo, while RC Lens sees its chances of retaining its crown estimated at 51. More surprisingly, Olympique Lyonnais, despite its newfound ambitions, is only credited with odds of 111. Nice and Rennes complete the top 8 with respective odds of 226 and 251, symbolizing almost zero chances of a title.
The rest of the ranking draws a clear hierarchy: a group of teams with more than 500 to one (Nantes, Reims, Strasbourg, Auxerre, Brest), followed by Toulouse, then a trio with more than 1,000 to one (Montpellier, Le Havre, Saint-Étienne). Angers brings up the rear with astronomical odds, reflecting very gloomy prospects according to the bookmakers.
These forecasts, established while the season is only in its first quarter, reflect a Ligue 1 at several speeds where Parisian supremacy does not seem ready to be called into question.

Paris SG = odds at 1.12

**Interview with Sports Analyst Marc Dupont on Ligue 1 Predictions**
**Editor:** Thanks for joining us, Marc. With the Ligue 1 season hitting its 10th matchday, bookmakers seem to have made their predictions. Can you summarize the current landscape?
**Marc Dupont:** Absolutely, the early season patterns are becoming evident. Paris Saint-Germain is heavily favored, with odds as low as 1.12, essentially indicating that they are almost a sure thing to win the league. Their dominance in recent seasons makes this unsurprising.
**Editor:** AS Monaco is mentioned as a potential competitor with odds of 5.4. Do you think they stand a real chance against PSG?
**Marc Dupont:** Monaco has shown promise this season, and while the odds suggest they’re an outsider, they do have the potential to disrupt PSG’s plans. The gap in odds shows that while PSG is dominant, nobody can count out surprises in football. Monaco’s performance could hinge on maintaining consistency and possibly capitalizing on any slip-ups by Paris.
**Editor:** Many fans might wonder about the other teams in the league. Are there any dark horses worth keeping an eye on?
**Marc Dupont:** Beyond PSG and Monaco, teams like Olympique Lyonnais and Olympique de Marseille could shake things up. Both clubs have history and resources. If they can find their rhythm, especially during key matches against the top teams, they might surprise us.
**Editor:** What factors do you think will influence the outcome of this Ligue 1 season?
**Marc Dupont:** Several factors come into play: injury management, squad depth, and even managerial strategies. Also, how teams perform under pressure in critical matches can shift momentum. It’s still early, and surprises are always possible in football!
**Editor:** Thanks for your insights, Marc! It’ll be interesting to see how the season unfolds.
**Marc Dupont:** Pleasure to be here! I look forward to the upcoming matches.
