France

Ligue 1

France's top division, and one of the best places in Europe to watch young players before the rest of the continent notices them.

How it works

The bottom clubs are relegated to Ligue 2, with a playoff deciding one of the places.

The top places qualify for the Champions League, then the Europa League and Conference League.

Three points for a win, one for a draw. Goal difference separates clubs level on points.
