Le Club on Ligue 1+ beat Canal Football Club in Sunday’s ratings, despite a high-profile Michel Platini appearance, by more than 60,000 viewers.
According to L'Équipe, Canal Football Club averaged 95,000 viewers on Canal+ and 28,000 on Canal+ Foot.
The programme returned from a new studio in the Canal+ headquarters hall, hosted by Hervé Mathoux. Platini attended to inaugurate the studio that bears his name, coinciding with the broadcast of the second part of a documentary series about him.
Its new rival on free-to-air, Le Club on the Ligue 1+ platform, presented by Thibault Le Rol, averaged 185,000 viewers. The show preceded Monaco-OM, which finished 2-0.
With the Champions League returning next week, Canal+ can expect stronger audiences with its Canal Champions Club around its top fixtures.
