In the Odoxa-Winamax-RTL sports barometer on the suspense at the top of Ligue 1, 48% of respondents see the capital club


PSG are favorites for the title of champion of France and Kylian Mbappé stands out as the best player in Ligue 1. This is the main lesson of the Odoxa-Winamax-RTL sports barometer unveiled this Saturday at 6.30 pm on the radio station.

The survey was carried out on a sample of French people interviewed online on March 18 and 19.

1005 people, including 434 football fans, were surveyed.

48% of French people believe that PSG will still be French champions this season.

The rate even climbs to 58% among football enthusiasts.

And if ever this is not the case, it will not be due to the merit of Lille, Lyon or Monaco, the other three contenders.

But because of the capital club which can only blame itself.

The French Championship deemed more undecided than last year

Because if Paris does not succeed itself, it is because it did not play at its best level for 59% of the French and 62% of the fans.

Only "37% of French people and 38% of football fans believe that a failure of PSG would be due to the fact that other teams have improved their level of play", states the survey.

Another asset in the eyes of those questioned: the presence of Kylian Mbappé in Paris.

They are categorical: the world champion is the best player in Ligue 1 of the current season for 50% of French people and 51% of enthusiasts.

The second, behind the crack of Bondy, does not play far: it is Neymar, cited by 8% of people.

Connoisseurs come up with another name: Keylor Navas, the impeccable goalkeeper, praised by 4% of the public, but by 9% of fans of the game.

Finally, the barometer looked at the period and in particular the context, with this season for a long time cut off from spectators in the stadiums.

Good news: the French Championship does not suffer from behind closed doors.

The exercise is considered more interesting and much more uncertain than last year.

It is even of a "good technical level" for 60% of fans (39% among all French), up seven points compared to December 2019.
