Stats and facts: What's at stake ahead of matchday two?
- PSG will be hoping to set a scoring record in their upcoming game against Rennes
- Les Parisiens have netted in their last 39 consecutive matches, and should they score on Sunday, they will have netted in 40 straight top flight matches
- Amiens will hope to preserve its long standing unbeaten home Ligue 1 record. They've gone eight sans defeat so far (W4, D4)...
- It's light-years behind PSG's 20, but still, for a smaller club, they can still have something to brag about as they're second in the league's rankings
Nantes will be seeking to make it a third straight Ligue 1 win against Marseille... - ...which is their best run since 2003
Talking points ahead of matchday two
Neymar continued to dominate the headlines as usual, but meanwhile, life goes on in Ligue 1. Reportedly, that saga will soon come to an end, thankfully for all parties involved. Meanwhile, Monaco will be hoping to get back to winning ways quickly after their season opener got off to the wrong footing. Lyon have started off with a bang and will be raring to go on matchday two as they look to race into an early lead, as players like Memphis Depay will be keen on showing that last season's performances weren't just a flash in the pan.
