French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[bitgolden]

Having a huge debt has been making barcelona has so many limitations to buying the new players. Barcelona hasn't even paid off the debt yet. Barcelona didn't have financial support to bring back messi to the camp nou. There must be many players to be sold by barcelona first if the club wanna sign messi back again to the club.

The future of messi is not yet clear. Messi was also making the situation even worst in PSG. It seems like he will be having more chances to leave from the club rather than stay even longer. Neymar will be leaving PSG,.

I guess that there will be so many people moving their eyes from PSG to another club that will become a new club for messi.

I think the difference is that they are not even trying to pay it back so far, and keep selling stuff to get more players, they paid more to players this year than most clubs in that league, again, which is a terrible idea when you are in that much debt.

They will have to eventually bite the bullet and just have a few terrible years while paying off the debt, which they really need, they can make enough money to cover half of the debt in a few years alone, so 2 or at most 3 seasons of being average, which they have been before this year, is not really that bad. In any case, they ain't getting Messi, he will either be in PSG next season, or Saudi Arabia if they pay him a huge amount.

The 4 clubs that are in the top 4 can get through week 24 with a win, that makes their position and point difference between them unchanged. If they can do this every week, then the competition will be even more interesting, moreover, if Paris Saint Germain can slip again, then it will create opportunities for the club they are currently shadowing to have a bigger chance. I hope that the club, which is currently in the closest position to Paris Saint Germain, can continue to provide good consistency.

I don't think the 4 first teams are really the main hope for the first position of this season because teams like Lens don't have enough power compared to teams like Paris Saint-Germain if you compare players and potential these two teams have also Monaco's performing very well recently and they are getting progress but they didn't start the season well enough however if they continue playing like this they can have hope for this season.

PSG is still the strongest team to win this season because they are relatively superior in quality and have a strong mentality this season. Monaco are trying to become contenders in the title race this season but their strength so far will not be strong enough to overturn PSG dominance. Apart from Monaco, there is the Marseille team which continues to stick tightly PSG and this is a strong challenge for Tudor in tomorrow match when Marseille faces PSG in week 25 of this season. It is in this match that the quality of the Marseille team will be seen and become a benchmark in the title competition.

Messi and Mbappe will be the equalizer for Psg front line in tomorrow's game because Neymar is declared to have to miss this match due to the injury he has experienced.

I hope that the club, which is currently in the closest position to Paris Saint Germain, can continue to provide good consistency.

The closest to PSG? that means Olympique Marseille, FYI, Marseille will face PSG tomorrow for matchday 25 of Ligue 1. We will see if Marseille will really close their distance with PSG or even further the distance because they lost to PSG.

In their last meeting during the Coupe de France match, Marseille managed to beat PSG with a score of 2 - 1, this could be the basis for strengthening their mentality to win matches in the league. But I'm not sure they will beat PSG tomorrow, even IMO, this match will end in PSG win.

I don't know what the current situation is for Barcelona regarding their financial issues, but as we can see they often find ways to make it possible somehow. Last time they didn't, that's true, but if they have a long time to handle a specific problem they might be able to solve it.

As far as the sportive side goes it could still be interesting to see Messi go back and play behind Lewandowski, Dembele and Torres or Pedri etc. They would find a position for him where he could still offer a lot of value to the team. Lewandowski would certainly be happy about it because he knows that there is no player providing better and more precise assists than Messi. That is what Lewandowski loves.

For Ligue 1 it would be bad news. Think about the worst case when Real Madrid would get Mbappe and Messi leaves as well, Ligue 1 would get hit hard in terms of public interest. Neymar isn't really a reason anymore for people to watch PSG.

Messi once mentioned that Barcelona is his home and that he wants to return to his home, but perhaps he isn't planning to play for them again, but to take on a role in the upper management of Barcelona. I don't think he would ever become a coach, but it is possible that he becomes the president or some other position where he can take on responsibility.

Though PSG knows that and maybe they are going to offer him a contract that he can't deny. Like the one Mbappe has signed.

Lyon will play an away match against angers and i think they will get an easy win because angers is a very weak team this year, lyon team is also suffering and they are 10 points away from the first European spot so they will try hard to get the maximum number of points in the next few matches

The match ended in an almost certain victory.
The score was also quite good in this match, even though in the last minutes I really liked the performance of the two of them.
With this result Lyon managed to be in 8th place for a while but seeing Nice who will play against Monaco I think this position will last at least until next week because I still feel Monaco will get 3 points in the match against Nice

[Bobrox]

Next match between Marseille vs PSG seems excited with both team atmosphere, but another important thing Marseille have opportunity to make difference points close with current standing behind 5 points right now. I don't think easy how to defeat PSG in this season although last several matches have inconsistency performance.

Become motivate for Marseille if want compete in the winning Ligue 1 tittle race how to make points close and potential make it 2 points difference if can beat PSG tomorrow.

Lens performance right now seems to be back to what they used to do. It's a shame even though for the start of the season they were still very good in my opinion.

At the moment they are still playing and the game is almost over for the first half with Lens in the lead. But indeed, with the condition of their defense that they still always concede goals, it doesn't mean that this one goal will be safe because Montpellier also doesn't want the momentum of their revival to be disrupted now.

It is like Marseille are about to be even the favourite side to take the win against PSG now. The current odds on a bet website are:

Marseille : 2.68   PSG : 2.60

I see this like a sign for me to give Marseille win a chance. Their odd is constantly going down by a little. It isn't the first time Marseille winning against PSG this season as well. They did it already in a French Cup match. Of course this is the Ligue 1 which is much more important. But on the other hand PSG have lost many points against the other top teams in this season. Marseille are the strongest one among those teams. Besides Marseille have the home advantage as well. I think they won't lose this match at least.

The odds vary between the Sports betting platforms. It is good to have a check through few platforms than just making prediction based on one specific platform. I came across a reputed sports betting platform where the odds of PSG is @2.30 which shows the increased winning probability. The teams on the top of points table competing will have either of the chance to win and this is going to be really tough for prediction.

The conditions of the brands are quite balanced but that's reasonable if you look at the results of their last match even though they were in different competitions.
On the other hand, I'm actually still a little doubtful, especially for PSG, where losing Neymar now is clearly going to be a problem. It does not rule out the advantage of playing at home and with PSG's condition which can be said to be lame now that a draw or even a victory for Marseille is repeated in this match.

[Z-tight]

Lens have continued to disappoint me, i was supporting them to challenge psg for the title, and they were very close to psg some weeks ago, but they have not been playing well lately, and even today they drew with Montpellier which continued their bad form. Lens have gone from 2nd to 4th position, they are now 7 points behind psg, Marseille is now the team that is closest to psg, i hope they can get closer and maybe go to the top of the table, it will be difficult but psg may not win the title this season if teams like Marseille, Monaco and Lens can be consistent.

[Velvet78]

Lens still maintain a really bad form in the league. This time they lost two points against Montpellier despite their being the first side to get ahead. These bad results caused them to lose two points in the standings. I was expecting them to drop from the championship race early actually. And now it is really happening. I know that the point gap is 7 with PSG but it isn't realistic for them to keep up with them anymore in my opinion.

Lens should just improve their performance not to drop from the race for top 3 as well. Otherwise they will waste their chance for the Champions League too.

[snipie]

Lyon and Lille got their 3 points while Lens just got 1 points. Lens has 7 points difference from PSG and might increase to 10 points if PSG win vs Marseille.
Lille might overtake Lens position if Lens keep dropping points.
Media are focusing on PSG - Marseille match, at a point you forgot another important game between Monaco and Nice.

I guess that there will be so many people moving their eyes from PSG to another club that will become a new club for messi.

in my opinion messi shouldn't leave PSG, they are a great team he can retire from and will be remembered forever, another or even better saying the only good team for messi would be manchester city, but from what i see i wouldn't be surprised to see messi going on a shit team, like some arabia team, i hope common sense remains in messi's head

about neymar, it is known that neymar's behavior off the field is not good behavior, he doesn't play much every season, he spends more time off the field due to injury, with the high salary he earns I don't see any reason why PSG keep neymar, PSG can sign another player cheaper and better and PSG needs to reduce expenses, in my opinion, we can see the case of real madrid, they are not making high expenses in the last seasons but they have good results

[makishart]

I don't think he would ever become a coach, but it is possible that he becomes the president or some other position where he can take on responsibility.

If messi said like that and does it mean barcelona will be signing him back again without even realizing the problem that has not solved yet by the club? Even messi's family was also aware about how small possibility for barcelona to sign him back again. The chance is pretty small caused by barcelona didn't have good financial anymore. It's unlike real madrid that was doing business carefully. I guess messi will not go to the barcelona.

Though PSG knows that and maybe they are going to offer him a contract that he can't deny. Like the one Mbappe has signed.

PSG already offered messi a new contract but messi just deny it again and again. Recently messi was giving some requirements to be completed by PSG before the club will able to extend messi's contract. The main problem is these requirements are very difficult to be filled by PSG.
Messi is still wanna playing as a professional player

a lot of people will think it's time for PSG to get their revenge on Marseille after eliminating them for the french cup, but i agree with you, i think that Marseille won't lose this match, Neymar's absence could affect PSG for sure.

[BitcoinAccepted]

Last in a documentary it seemed like everyone is keen to get their very best game against PSG. This may also have to do with the fact that they are no longer as dominant as in the previous 10 years. But we shouldn't shortchange other teams by saying that PSG are laconic in the games. Other teams in the top also have a lot of class and Marseille has of course been one of the best teams in France for decades. In the 90s, the name PSG did not even come up for the championship. But in the CL they are in danger of being eliminated, and in the cup they are already out. They only have the competition.

It's messi's decision. PSG didn't wanna let him leave from the club but since messi has not yet agreed to sign new contract with PSG and PSG can do nothing about that. It's his decision to determine his future. If you were reading some news correctly and some clubs already linked to him especially his old club barcelona. The problem is barcelona didn't have ability to buy back him nor pay him with huge salary.

about neymar, it is known that neymar's behavior off the field is not good behavior, he doesn't play much every season, he spends more time off the field due to injury, with the high salary he earns I don't see any reason why PSG keep neymar, PSG can sign another player cheaper and better and PSG needs to reduce expenses, in my opinion, we can see the case of real madrid, they are not making high expenses in the last seasons but they have good results

Neymar already confirmed to leave from the club even chelsea's owner already made private talk with neymar's agent. PSG already planned to sign new players as replacements for messi and neymar. I hope that PSG can get it as soon as possible.

Messi likely won't stay in PSG after this season and he knows that Mbappe does not want to see both Messi and Neymar in the club. Mbappe wants to be a king, a most important attacking player in PSG. With this unfriendly air in PSG, a super star player like Messi has many reasons to leave. Saudi can be his next destination as he will be able to earn millions of dollar and will re-meet Ronaldo there.

Neymar already confirmed to leave from the club even chelsea's owner already made private talk with neymar's agent. PSG already planned to sign new players as replacements for messi and neymar. I hope that PSG can get it as soon as possible.

Neymar surely is not happy in PSG after the last summer. The club treated very bad with him because they prioritized Mbappe and want to satisfy Mbappe and his high ego. It is unfair and disrespectful for Neymar after many seasons he played in Paris and scored many goals and made many assists for them.

They can require more on Neymar but a success of PSG in Champions League depends on other players too. They have to win together and Neymar can not bring them to the trophy just by himself.
