It was the two- point rule; case of a tie, the goal difference was the decisive factor for the placement.

Before the start of the season as favorites mainly Olympique Marseille and defending champions Girondins Bordeaux was attributed, but Monaco began immediately with a victory over the South rival OM in the season and quickly secured a projection which was never less than three points until the end. The young coach Wenger had succeeded at first to form the new additions Battiston in defense, striker Hateley and Hoddle as a "brilliant virtuoso director," a closed mannschaftliche unit that often " Enchanted " their audience. While the Monegasque between mid-August and mid-March, just a single defeat - and the calculated against promoted Niort in their own stadium - had to accept, especially Marseilles fell back early, and posted at the end of the season 15 defeats. The Girondins defeated Olympique on Matchday but gave particular before a home crowd early on unexpectedly from many points, as against Le Havre, Toulouse and Cannes. In contrast, the climbers from Montpellier, the, the "turbo lit " especially after the winter break, where not only weaken League newcomers often surprised. The team won in Le Havre, Metz and Matra Racing, home produced a series of Kanter victories ( 6-0 against Brest, 5-0 against Saint -Etienne, each 4-0 against Lens and Marseille), had by far the most successful attack Division 1 on, was to point the best team of the season and qualified as well as for the UEFA Cup.

While Monaco celebrated winning the championship ahead of schedule, the decisions were at the lower end of the table, with the exception of the descent of Le Havre until the final day, with regard to the question of who would at least still get a chance in the relegation round, even goal difference the rash was at the expense of Brest. Even the champions from 1986, Paris Saint- Germain, the descent narrowly escaped. To the next season of FC Sochaux and Racing Strasbourg managed direct ascent, which also managed the Zweitdivisionär SM Caen to the Barrages.
