Betting on Ligue 1
Paris Saint-Germain are the dominant team in Ligue 1, the club owned by Qatar Sports Investments possessing a significantly higher budget than their rivals.
The club have bought some of the best players in the world since QSI purchased the club in 2011 with Zlatan Ibrahimović, Edinson Cavani, Ángel Di María and Kylian Mbappé some of the high profile players moving to Paris.
PSG paid a world record fee of €222 million to Barcelona for Brazilian superstar Neymar in 2017, but the high profile acquisitions failed to deliver the coveted UEFA Champions League trophy.
The Parisians have changed their approach in recent seasons, espeically after Mbappé moved to Real Madrid on a free transfer. The club have put their faith in talented youngsters who should continue to dominate Ligue 1, but are likely to fall short in the Champions League.
Monaco, Lille, Marseille and Lyon all have significant budgets and possess squads that have an outside chance of breaking PSG's dominance. Expect these four clubs to be challenging the Parisians at the top of the table and fighting for qualification to the Champions League and Europa League.
