There is a surprise leader early in the 09-10 French Ligue 1 season. AS Nancy has been on fire offensively in rising to the top of the Ligue 1 standings. This week, AS Nancy defeated Monaco 4-0 in their home opener at Stade Marcel Picot. Cameroonian forward Paul Alo'o Efoulou scored twice to stand out in the win. That's 7 goals scored to only 1 allowed to open the season for Nancy.

No suprise in who is tied for 1st with AS Nancy, its defending champions Bordeaux. Moroccan forward Marouane Chamakh's 2 goals cancelled out 2 goals from Sochaux's American striker Charlie Davies as Gerardo Wendel's goal in the 42nd minute proved to be the difference as Laurent Blanc's men remained perfect this season.

Last year's surprise team, Toulouse bounced back from a disappointing loss to defeat St. Etienne 3-1 in their home opener. Last season's leading goal scorer André-Pierre Gignac scored his 1st of the season to highlight Toulouse's first win of the season.
