Troyes to be relegated from the Ligue 1 odds have drifted from 5/6 to 6/5 with BetTom, with 11/8 now the best price at Betway. See the full odds movement.
The odds on Troyes to be relegated from the Ligue 1 have drifted out from 5/6 to 6/5 with BetTom, and after a statement win at home the bookies are finally giving Stéphane Dumont's side some credit.
Three of five bookmakers have eased their odds on Troyes to be relegated from the Ligue 1.
Betway now offer the best price on Troyes at 11/8, with Bet365 matching them at the top of the range.
Saturday's 2-0 win over Le Mans was Troyes' first home victory of the season and lifted them out of the bottom three.
Le Havre remain the clear favourites in the market at 4/11 with Betway, with Troyes third-shortest.
This drift comes straight off the back of a 2-0 win over Le Mans at the Stade de l'Aube, a result that hauled Troyes out of the bottom three. Mouhamed Diop broke the deadlock on 33 minutes after a low ball from forward Timothé Nkada, and substitute Ismaël Boura finished the job late on, pouncing on a rebound after the Le Mans keeper had parried. That is exactly the sort of result that keeps a side out of the drop zone.
The bigger reason for the market reaction is how stubborn Troyes looked. Dumont's men sat in a compact defensive shape and held Le Mans to just three shots, while creating plenty of their own going the other way. That was no smash-and-grab against a direct relegation rival. It was a side that knows how it wants to play. Ask anyone who has followed a DStv Premiership scrap at the bottom of the log: clean sheets against your neighbours are worth more than pretty football. The bookies have read it the same way, and BetTom pushing their price out to 6/5 tells you the implied probability of Troyes going down has dropped.
Ligue 1 Relegation odds
Best odds on Troyes to be relegated from the Ligue 1 are 11/8 with Betway, worst 6/5 with QuinnBet. Bet365 sit right alongside Betway at the top of the range, so there is very little to separate the two leading firms for anyone who still fancies Troyes to struggle.

Who is favourite to be relegated from the Ligue 1?
Le Havre are the favourites at a best price of 4/11 with Betway, and it is hard to argue with the bookies on this one. They are still winless at the foot of the table after a 5-1 home hammering by Paris Saint-Germain, and nothing about that result suggests a turnaround is close. Le Mans, beaten at Troyes, sit second in the betting, with Troyes third-shortest of the sides priced up. The message is simple: the market sees one side well adrift and a messy scrap behind them, and Troyes have just given themselves some breathing room in that scrap.
Le Havre – 4/11 with Betway. Winless and bottom, they are the clear pick of the market.
Le Mans – 5/4 with Bet365. They were hovering just outside the drop zone before their defeat at Troyes.
Troyes – 11/8 with Betway. Drifting after the win over Le Mans.
Angers – 7/4 with Betway. Fourth in the betting among the sides quoted.

How do Troyes avoid relegation from the Ligue 1?
Keep doing what they did against Le Mans. The schedule does Dumont no favours in the short term, with Troyes on the road at Paris Saint-Germain at the Parc des Princes on 7 November 2026, and nobody will judge them on that trip. The fixture that really matters comes next, when Le Havre visit the Stade de l'Aube on 20 November 2026. Beat the favourites to go down on home soil and the drift on Troyes to be relegated from the Ligue 1 could have further to run. Our view is clear: if Troyes keep the same compact shape that shut out Le Mans, they look better equipped than the current price suggests to stay out of the bottom three, while Le Havre remain the side the market has firmly in its sights.
