Some surprising results in the midweek Ligue 1 round - which will make the team happy! Lorient drew with PSG, Metz won against Lens (a double for Hein who got sent off for removing his shirt after his 2nd), and Angers drew at OM with a 96th min equaliser from Camara. Also, comebacks!...

There's a midweek round in Ligue 1! One goal so far in the early matches, a penalty for Nice (Diop) against Lille, which is definitely the pick of the first sitting. Listen to the pod to find out more! #footy-live

Early game in Ligue 1 - Lille v Metz, who are still looking for their first win of the season. Not sure they'll get it here, even with Giroud on the sidelines. #footy-live

Plus my sad lament at the current state of Metz.

Saturday in Ligue 1 kicks off with Metz v OM. On a good run of form, including a 4-0 win over Ajax midweek, you have to think that unless OM do something really stupid (early red card, hilarious own goal), this is a gimme for them. #Footy-live

A mini-multiplex in Ligue 1 at the moment = Angers/Brest, Metz/Le Havre, and Europa team Lille v Lyon, where OL are ahead through Tyler Morton. Worth a watch. #Foot-Live

Meanwhile in Paris, with Dembele and Doue both injured on international duty leading to all manner of handbags between PSG and the FFF, Bradley Barcola has stepped up with a brace to put them 2-0 up agains Lens with 10 minutes to go. #Footy-live

Ligue 2 FTs: And that's how it ends in Grenoble, 1-0 against Dunkerque. But Reims come back with a *96th* minute equaliser from Antoine Leautey at Annecy. Still a bit concerned about Reims... #Footy-live

In 15 minutes, it's L'Olympique - Lyon v Marseille. For OL, Fofana starts, but Mikataudze is injured, and for OM, Rabiot's not in the squad. If you fancy a cheeky bet, go high on bookings. #OLOM #Footy-Live

This evening, Strasbourg are away at Brondby in the second leg of the C4 play-off - after a goalless draw in Strasbourg, they are up against it.

Intriguing, to say the least, especially since the 💰 generated by the sale of his Palace shares is meant to go to his creditor Ares. Hard to see how JT, also in trouble at every single of his other clubs, could raise £100m to purchase Wednesday.

In the Ligue 2 Monday night game, Pau beat Reims (relegated last season) 2-0. Reims have sold a lot of players and don't appear to have bought anyone (apart from 37yo Nicolas Pallois on a free), so this could be a difficult season for them. Meanwhile...
