Troyes v Paris FC, kick-off time and how to watch | OneFootball

Troyes host Paris FC on Saturday as the 2026-27 Ligue 1 season kicks off.

According to L'Équipe, kick-off is at 20:45 at the Stade de l'Aube in Troyes, with live coverage on Ligue 1+ 5.

After finishing 11th in their debut top-flight campaign, Paris FC want to kick on this season. The capital club were the division's second biggest spenders this summer, behind their Paris neighbours, and hope to start with a win.

Liam Rosenior's side must improve on a mixed pre-season, which brought one win, two draws and two defeats. They beat Reims 1-0, drew 2-2 with Côme and Stuttgart, and lost 4-0 to Mayence then 3-2 against Angers, exposing defensive frailties to address.

Troyes return to Ligue 1 as last season's Ligue 2 champions and have largely kept faith with their group. Despite the exits of Detourbet, Diawara and Adeline, Stéphane Dumont is set to lean on a youthful squad shaped by a productive academy.

Their tune-up was strong, unbeaten across six friendlies with four wins and two draws. They held Auxerre 1-1 and the Greeks of Panelotikos 1-1 after victories over Nancy 1-3, Red Star 1-0 and Grenoble 0-3.
