French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[Awaklara]

I hear that he won't extend his contract because it seems he doesn't enjoy the city of Paris. I doubt this. Is he going to move back to Barcelona, I don't think so. How do I know? I don't. I just feel that it will be a wrong move and if he does it,  Barcelona will not do well anymore because it will seem like he is taking the shine out of the other players. He may like Ronaldo move to one of the teams in the Arab league. I may be wrong with my analysis and deduction but that is what I feel.

with Messi's bad situation at PSG, I think the best option is not to renew the contract. and that means he must immediately find a new club for him this summer.
it is not impossible that Messi will return to Barcelona, although there are many considerations that will be made. but if there will be a better offer from another club in the Saudi league like what happened to Ronaldo. or from other European League clubs. Messi will not refuse it. Messi has skills above the average player now. his current enemies were only age and injury shadowing him. he just needs to find a club that believes in him.

I really don't know about the PSG - Lens match in two days. Because even though PSG have only the Ligue 1 left they are still showing a really inconsistent performance. That losses against Lyon and Rennes both in matches home make me think twice before betting on them for this match. Because considering those results there is nothing that can make me confident about a PSG win against Lens either.

Plus Lens' most recent form has been pretty attention getting also. They really want to fight till the end of the season. But this match between these teams will most probably be the decider about whether this competition for the title will go on or not. PSG aren't having a good season with Galtier but they still have the strength to win this one to secure themselves much more for the title. But I expect them to part ways with Galtier anyway even if they win the Ligue 1 title this season.

Regarding the PSG vs. Lens debate, Ayo, you have my full agreement. Recent results for PSG have been dismal, with defeats to Lyon and Rennes. In their presence, determining anything is like trying to read the wind. Recently though, Lens has been on fire, going 4-1 with a draw in their previous three bouts. PSG faces an uphill battle, for sure. The show "ain't over 'til the fat lady sings," as the phrase goes. Although PSG has taken some damage, they still possess the ability to pull off the victory and maintain their position at the top. Whoever is more hungry will likely win. And I have no concern that PSG will increase the pressure. This is the last possible honour they can receive. Let's hope for the best and hang on for the ride this coming Sunday

PSG host Lens and the result of this match is very important for both teams. There is a six-point gap between the two teams and it will either increase or decrease with this match. It is a match that will perhaps decide the fate of the league. For this reason, I think all teams will focus on this match. The result of this match will also be important for Marseille and Monaco. They are the teams competing for 2nd place.

The Paris Saint Germain vs Lens match is the 31st match in the French 1 League
It becomes interest because the two best teams in the league will play a match that will determine the fate of the league. Paris Saint Germain as the host and defend champions of League One will perform optimally because this is the last competition they have the potential to win.

Lens won big with a score of 3-1 in their first match or first meeting of the season, so that in the second match or their second meeting of the season it is mandatory for PSG to be able to beat Lens. But for some reason, I hope Lens can beat PSG in this match, because if that happens then of course the competition in the title race will be interesting again.

PSG has sometimes failed or lost in Ligue 1 matches lately, so it seems that PSG is having problems affecting their performance. So yes, I hope Lens will be able to take advantage of PSG's current unstable situation to be able to beat him again.

Yes, sometimes Paris Saint Germain's performance in the French 1st League is unpredictable
But specifically in this match if Paris Saint Germian continues to drag on with failures, it will pave the way for Lens to take over the top position. Paris Saint Germain certainly don't want that to happen because it will be inconvenient for themselves, so it looks like Galtier will make sure his players will play consistent in the match against Lens.

About being predictable I can say many teams are unpredictable and they have unstable performances and PSG is one of them but the average of their performance was good enough to be on top of the table in the French league as the first team, PSG lost many points because of the bad performance we from this team before, the match between Lyon and PSG was one example for performance in PSG, but against Lens, they have to win the game.

At this time Lens is right below PSG in the standings while second in Ligue1 and yes PSG must be able to win the game this weekend so that the gap in points can continue to be created even though PSG can still be at the top of the standings if they lose this weekend's game. However, PSG must be able to try to win at home in this match besides having to get full points in the match because Lens is not far behind PSG in the standings.

PSG will still make a scheme that seems to be the same as the previous match with an emphasis on Mbappe and Messi. This can clearly be a reference for Lens about what strategy they should do.
However now it wouldn't be wrong to play an open game with PSG even if it was certain for possession Lens lost but making the most of the quick counter-attacks and long balls that Lens always does is still possible for a repeat of their first meeting.

Despite the fact that PSG is a miserable swamp and players are having a hard time forcing themselves to play in Ligue 1 (dreaming of bigger tournaments), I find odds for the upcoming game attractive:

1.69 - 4.30 - 4.80

It seems to me that PSG will be able to find some motivation in themselves, because after all, formally, this is a game of two leaders. In this variant, plus the game at home, PSG should confidently win, I think with an advantage of at least a couple of goals.

That's true that Lens is the second team and they have fewer points than PSg but the fact is PSG is in a bad situation which is a good reason to say there is the possibility for them to lose even easier games than Lens, While Lens have too much hope for this game and they can have the chance to beat PSG and decrease the gap between themselves and PSG.

Lens might be directly under PSG, but PSG still has a lead of six points. That is certainly something that PSG is not going to throw away. I agree that PSG has been very inconsistent, I say “vary“ because that’s what it seems like, considering the fact that they have some of the best in the world in their squad.

The team that PSG had made, was supposed to win everything. But they are able to hardly win anything other than the Ligue One title. I don’t think they will be pressured by limbs. But it is also not very impossible.

[Velvet78]

There could be another chance for Marseille to get ahead of Lens again at least. Because if PSG win against Lens then Marseille can take the second position back from Lens by beating Troyes home. This isn't a very tough job to do for Marseille either. Maybe they aren't more consistent than Lens recently but they must be strong enough to beat a much weaker team in a home game at least.

They just need to be more accurate with their shots unlike their game against Lorient previously. That would be enough to be victorious. 

[LUCKMCFLY]

I expect PSG to be in search of a much better manager than Galtier in the summer. I don't think he would stay longer.

The club already expected to have a new coach in upcoming season. PSG will be making some movements during the summer transfer season. PSG just let galtier to end this season in PSG. Galtier is not as good as people think.

PSG already bought some world class players and that's not enough to win UCL PSG. To be honest if the performance from PSG this season is disappointing for PSG fans. Galtier will be sacked or he must be leaving the club by himself. I would not be surprised to see that PSG has been offering some good coaches to join the club. Messi is already rumored to go back again to the barcelona.

This is also making PSG in a difficult situation. PSG has been offering some important players to join but these players rejected the offers by PSG.

Well, I really don't know how they endured for so long without results in the UCL, I would have already changed the coach, it doesn't make them give the expected results, they have some of the best players in the world and they couldn't win the UCL, that's somewhat disappointing, the a team that has done a lot with the stars is Real Madrid, if they change the players and put in new ones, how can they replace Messi? Ney, Mbappé because he is a player who is already very good but I don't consider him as good as Messi, so these things They are very good now if PSG sees them when it is too late, when the star players already want to leave.

Next time there is a PSG - Lens game which is going to be really important for the league title as well.

I mean the point gap between these teams is 6 now. If PSG win this game I don't think there would be any title race as of then. Even now it is doubtful but PSG's inconsistency is still a hope for Lens now. In their latest head-to-head game Lens destroyed PSG by 3-1 home. I wonder how much they can resist in Parc des Princes. I don't expect another win by Lens of course but even a draw would be decent for them here. Because after that maybe PSG stumble in some other games which would be in favour of Lens. However I still don't believe PSG will lose points this time.

The match will be interesting considering the current condition of the two teams chasing each other.
Lens could be hampering PSG's current point growth rate, especially with PSG's condition, which really cannot be relied on with certainty as long as some of their core players are not available, although until now I have not heard about Neymar's condition whether he will be lowered or not.
PSG are still the favorites in this game but Lens could bite and reduce the gap to 3 points.

Not only Lens but also any other team is very capable of beating PSG, nothing more than seeing how PSG's performance has been, it could be said that they have some cracks, and that helps any team thinking about beating them, and that's something spectacular, they no longer believe that they are so invincible, now things are different and they have a lot of probelms, I say the fact that Messi and Mbappé might want to leave PSG for another team, and it's not bad at all, because it's a strategic movement and I think that if something like this happens, PSG's reign would end soon.

Real madrid is not the same like PSG. Real madrid is having so many stars but this club is also actively discovering new young talented players. The new talent like vini, valverde even camavinga have been proving how good real madrid is in targeting the players, unlike PSG.
PSG might have a bunch of money but it doesn't have good management. PSG needs to sign a new coach that will able to transform the club. So many PSG stars are old stars right now.

PSG needs to do the transition to the club. Changing all of old players with fully young talented players will become the best decision. Messi was not always become a key for PSG. There are so many good names that are capable enough to replace him.

I heard that psg was targeting some names like ziyech. Even PSG was also aiming osimhen from napoli. Neymar will be going out from PSG.
Mbappe will be the only player that will still remain at PSG.

[fuguebtc]

If Lens loses the match against Paris Saint Germain, then Marseille will take advantage of that to replace Lens in second place again. The reason is they will face an easier match against Troyes. Troyes is now one of the teams in the relegation zone, so maybe this will not be a difficult game for Marseille who will act as hosts. Looks like they'll be able to win easily.

Well, if the result is like that then not only Marseille can take over second place, but PSG will again get a wide gap in points with the team in second place. So yes, it looks like I will still support Lens to be able to get points in this match, whether it's three points or maybe just one point.
Because yes, Marseille does have a very good chance of being able to win the match against Troyes because it is against a mediocre team or at least a team that is in the relegation zone, but Marseille is also playing at home. So indeed, it will be an easy factor for Marseille to win and get three points in this match.

The way Lens has been playing, I don’t know if PSG will be successful in getting three points from them. Because PSG is the one in this situation who has been inconsistent. If Lens can get one point from this match, they are good because they have better goal differences.

And I don’t think Marseille is going to win the next match by 5/6 goals. But if Lens loses, which is very much possible, it opens up a lot of possibilities on the table.

It is very difficult for PSG to replace Messi at the moment. PSG's performance in the last few matches makes me think that the team has become too dependent on Messi. Messi played well in the last match, and PSG won as a result. However, the PSG team was defeated in the previous two matches. Messi is also in good form, his fitness is also good. So PSG management should try to keep Messi in the team for one more season. And at the same time to find a suitable replacement for Messi.

With midfielders Hakim Ziyech and Osimhen in the squad, PSG's midfield and attack look to be somewhat strengthened. At the same time, it is a good decision not to keep Neymar in the team. Although Neymar is an excellent player, he has been sidelined for most of the season due to injuries. Signing Neymar was the biggest losing project for PSG.

[bering]

Lyon will playing away against Toulouse today and if Lyon can displayed the performance such as they beat PSG and Rennes last week i think earn 3 points should be easy task for them especially from meetings records we can see Lyon had positive results from Toulouse but i think Lyon shouldn't be underestimate Toulouse because sometimes they can able to performing well and the latest is this team can advance to France cup final match with Nantes

Last week Bradley Barcola can performing well and he had good contribution to bringing Lyon to earn 3 points from Rennes even he has scored goal at that time but unfortunately he will be unable to played today because of card accumulation and based on the odds i can see Lyon is slightly the favourite in this match @2.23 and maybe this is the best picked for this match considering Lyon performance has showed good progress recently

[X-ray]

It's quite difficult for PSG to win against lens now. I meant even though bookies were favoring PSG. I think that putting my bet into the lens was not bad enough. I meant if lens was in a good trend right now. Lens may potentially steal another three points from PSG again.
PSG can only rely on Messi right now. PSG may be nothing without him as messi always became the savior to save PSG from a draw or loss. Lens is now coming with full power squads which will able to get full points from PSG.
Lens defenders must be working even harder to make sure if messi will not able to make another goal again. I meant messi is very difficult to be guarder and lens's defender needs more effort to make sure messi will not go anywhere.
Messi is the point that must be prevented. all of attacks that were coming from PSG happened caused by messi. Lens just need to make sure if messi is the main target in upcoming match.

Although Neymar is an excellent player, he has been sidelined for most of the season due to injuries. Signing Neymar was the biggest losing project for PSG.

when Messi is replaced with a younger player who has more good form, that's very good advice but not at this time. because PSG still depends on Messi until now Messi has contributed so many goals to PSG and if Messi is replaced by another player who cannot dominate the PSG team, I think it will end badly like a threat to PSG.
for me, if PSG extends the contract with Messi, it is not a loss, but rather an advantage for PSG, while Messi always gives a good performance in every game.
maybe PSG should take all this into account and if they make the wrong decision, it looks bad in the long term.

I see a high chance for Lyon to win this game against Toulouse because Lyon won the game against PSG and Rennes recently to prove they can show a good performance while Toulouse couldn't have a good performance in the games we saw from this team recently, I think if Lyon shows us the same performance we saw in the previous games they can easily beat Toulouse.

It is really sad that a player like Lionel Messi after joining the PSG team left the expensive leagues and currently only plays in Ligue 1. I think if Lionel Messi had joined any other club he would have had more opportunities and could have done great things in a better league.

If Lens loses the match against Paris Saint Germain, then Marseille will take advantage of that to replace Lens in second place again. The reason is they will face an easier match against Troyes. Troyes is now one of the teams in the relegation zone, so maybe this will not be a difficult game for Marseille who will act as hosts. Looks like they'll be able to win easily.

Well, if the result is like that then not only Marseille can take over second place, but PSG will again get a wide gap in points with the team in second place. So yes, it looks like I will still support Lens to be able to get points in this match, whether it's three points or maybe just one point.

Because yes, Marseille does have a very good chance of being able to win the match against Troyes because it is against a mediocre team or at least a team that is in the relegation zone, but Marseille is also playing at home. So indeed, it will be an easy factor for Marseille to win and get three points in this match.

I want to see Paris Saint Germain lose to show them, it turns out that what they have so far hasn't fully made them any better. The fact that they have star players does not make them a very feared team, especially on the European stage. I'd like to see the management think what they've been doing is wrong, and they need to change their style of signing players who will become Paris Saint Germain players.
