About National 1

National 1 is the third tier of France football with 18 teams. The 2026/27 season has produced 2.43 goals per game over 99 matches: both teams scored in 50%, 41% went over 2.5 goals, and the home side won 46% with 28% drawn. La Roche VF lead the table on 21 points from 10 games.

How the model handles National 1

Every National 1 fixture is scored by the same calibrated model that covers 169+ competitions: home, draw and away probabilities from a result classifier, and both-teams-to-score and over/under goals from a Poisson goal model, each passed through its own calibration layer so a displayed 70% means roughly 70%. Since predictions were frozen at kickoff on 3 Aug, the model has settled 12 National 1 tips at the strict thresholds, claiming 74.7% on average and landing 91.7%. Its best-calibrated National 1 market so far is home or draw (82.3% claimed against 100.0% hit over 8 tips). Predictions appear up to three days before kick-off and are re-scored every morning until the match starts, then frozen for good.

Frequently asked questions

How are these National 1 predictions made?
Each match gets probabilities from two machine-learning models trained on results since 2021: a three-way result classifier for home, draw and away, and a Poisson goal model for both-teams-to-score and over/under goals. Inputs are recent venue-specific form, Elo ratings, rest days, head-to-head history and, where the data exists, shot and expected-goals aggregates. Every output is passed through an isotonic calibration layer fitted on a held-out season, so the displayed percentages match real-world frequencies — the methodology page has the detail. Predictions are frozen at kickoff and never edited afterwards.
Where does the National 1 table come from?
It is the official standings feed from our data provider, API-Sports, refreshed nightly. We deliberately do not compute it from results ourselves: head-to-head tiebreakers, points deductions, and split, conference or Apertura/Clausura formats are all shown exactly as the competition publishes them.
Which National 1 market is the model most reliable in?
On settled National 1 tips since 3 Aug, the closest match between claimed and actual hit rate is home or draw: 82.3% claimed against 100.0% hit over 8 tips. The full per-market breakdown is in the record table on this page, and it is recomputed daily as matches settle.
How far ahead are National 1 fixtures predicted?
Up to three days before kick-off. Fixtures are imported a week ahead, each prediction is re-scored every morning as form and ratings update, and it is frozen the moment the match starts. The exact probabilities are on each fixture page. To filter National 1 by market and probability, use the Bet Finder.
