Nice, Lille and Paris St-Germain were the big winners on a weekend full of derbies in France.
Evann Guessand’s goal handed Nice a 2-1 win in the Cote d’Azur derby as second-placed Monaco suffered their first loss of the campaign, while Lille claimed a dramatic 2-0 win at Lens thanks to goals from Jonathan David and Mohamed Bayo in the eighth and 11th minutes of injury time.
But leaders PSG remain three points clear after a 3-0 win at third-placed Marseille, who had Amine Harit sent off in the 20th minute. Joao Neves opened the scoring, before an own goal from Leonardo Balerdi and Bradley Barcola’s effort had the victory sealed by half-time.
Elsewhere, Sporting continued their 100% start to the season in Portugal with a 3-0 victory over Famalicao.
On the back of a midweek goal double in the Europa League, Swedish striker Viktor Gyokeres was again on the scoresheet to take his record this term to 12 in nine league games.
Third-placed Benfica also claimed three points with Muhammed Kerem Akturkoglu’s hat-trick the standout showing in a 5-0 victory over Rio Ave.
In the Netherlands, PSV stretched their lead at the top to eight points with a resounding 6-0 defeat of PEC Zwolle.
Closest challengers Utrecht were cut further adrift after losing 2-0 at home to Feyenoord, while Ajax are third after a routine 1-0 win at home to Willem II.
