What an intense 13th day of Ligue 1, 2024-2025 season. It was on the pitches, concluded by a heated Mediterranean clash between Olympique de Marseille and AS Monaco (2-1). It was also particularly popular in the stands, with, according to L'Equipe estimates, a total of 280,759 spectators.
A particularly high average for this 13th round
That is to say an average attendance per stadium of the nine matches on the program this weekend, at 31,195. One of the best of the current financial year, well above the 27,909 observed on average since the start of the championship. This is because in addition to a sold-out OM – AS Monaco at the Vélodrome, none of the posters brought together fewer than 14,000 spectators, this threshold being that of La Mosson for Montpellier HSC – LOSC Lille.
Led influxes pull Ligue 1 up
These crowds therefore confirm the trend according to which there are more and more people in the stadiums; according to the figures of The Teamthe average attendance being slightly more than a thousand spectators per match over the previous season. For French football which suffers from other ills, this is still very good news.
