Ligue 1 Live Scores, Table and Fixtures 2026/27 | South Africa | ScoresLive
Ligue 1 is France's top division and a league South African fans follow for its star power and its deep African connection, with clubs across the country built around talent from the continent. It has a local thread too: Bongani Zungu spent three seasons in Ligue 1 with Amiens before moving on, one of the South Africans to test themselves in France. ScoresLive brings you live football scores from every Ligue 1 match, updated second by second, alongside the full table, fixtures, results, form and odds from South Africa's licensed bookmakers. When the French weekend pauses, the Betway Premiership and our football predictions keep the calendar full.

Alongside the live table you get the complete fixtures list, results with final scores from every round already played, and a form guide for all 18 clubs.

How Ligue 1 Works
Ligue 1 was trimmed to 18 clubs, who play a double round robin of 34 matches from August to May, three points for a win and one for a draw, with the highest points total crowned champion outright. The top sides qualify for the UEFA Champions League, with further places leading to the Europa League and Conference League, while the bottom clubs face relegation to Ligue 2, some directly and one through a playoff. France's development system makes it a launchpad for players heading to Europe's biggest clubs.

The South Africa Connection
Ligue 1 has long been a stage for African footballers, which is a big part of why South African fans watch it so closely, and Bongani Zungu's spell at Amiens showed the door is open to local players too. The French league's reputation for developing young talent mirrors the ambition of clubs in the Betway Premiership, where the next generation is trying to earn a move abroad. ScoresLive lets you follow both leagues on one platform.
Ligue 1 Betting Markets Guide
Match Result (1X2)
The 1X2 market is the core of Ligue 1 betting. ScoresLive shows odds from several licensed South African bookmakers on every fixture so you can compare prices instantly. Hollywoodbets, Betway and Sportingbet price up each match, and comparing the best return in rand before kickoff is the simplest way to add value to a home, draw or away selection.
Both Teams to Score (BTTS)
Both Teams to Score is a popular Ligue 1 market, though the gap between the leading clubs and the rest means it is far from automatic in every fixture. The recent form on each match page on ScoresLive highlights BTTS trends for both sides, and the head to head history adds useful context before you back this market with Easybet or Betway.
Goalscorer Markets
Anytime scorer, first scorer and last scorer are offered on every Ligue 1 fixture across the licensed bookmakers. Player form and recent goals appear on the match detail page on ScoresLive to help you choose, and prices from Hollywoodbets, Sportingbet and Sunbet are worth comparing in rand before kickoff.
