French Football League (Ligue 1) is the most prestigious football league in France and one of the top leagues worldwide. It was founded in 1922 and has since become one of the most successful and popular sports leagues in Europe.

The Ligue 1 season typically runs from late August to mid-June each year. The league consists of 20 teams, divided into two groups: Group A and Group B. Each group has 10 teams, and the teams within each group play against each other twice during the regular season. After the regular season, the top four teams from each group advance to the knockout phase, where they compete for the championship title.

Here is a breakdown of the number of teams in French League 1:

- **Regular Season**: There are 20 teams.

- **Knockout Phase**: There are 8 teams that advance from the regular season.

Therefore, the total number of teams in French League 1 is 20 + 8 = 28 teams.
