Ligue 1 predictions for 2009-2010?
Hi. A new Ligue 1 season begins this coming weekend. Any predictions as to who's likely to finish first, second, and third, and who are the likely candidates for relegation to Ligue 2?
I predict Lyon will successfully reclaim the title they lost to Bordeaux last season, and that Bordeaux, Marseille, and Paris will in all likelihood finish right behind them, though not necessarily in that order.
As for relegation, I think Montpellier and Boulogne-sur-Mer will probably make a speedy return to Ligue 2.
What about you? (And please, no insipid comments bashing French soccer. If you're not a fan, please keep it moving. Thanks!)
