French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[Hyphen(-)]

Nice is a strong team, but Lyon is also a strong team now. I see a high probability that this match will end in a draw. Olympique Lyon will now do whatever it takes to get to the top. They have to play their best because they were last after the first matches. We are now watching the Lyon matches that we are used to seeing.

Nice is a stronger team than Lyon, but Lyon is trying its best to escape the relegation zone completely this srason that is why they are trying everything to win any match that come way. Since after they recover from their poor start, they have won so many matches including Lile and Marseille.

Statistically, they are supposed to lose this match due to form and their statistical records, but I am expecting Lyon to get a point in the match so as not to lose hope on leaving the relegation zone.

I just read the news that PSG are ready to leave Parc des Princes. This is because the French government did not hand over the state assets that PSG wanted to buy. Parc des Princes is considered a legacy. With the city's decision they will leave (it's unclear if they will rent or build a new stadium. PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi sees this decision as actually slightly discriminating because PSG is currently majority controlled by Qatar.

PSG aimed to increase the number of spectator capacities by intending to renovate the stadium, and planned to buy the stadium from the city government, but the agreement did not materialize. It is very likely that PSG will build their own stadium, which can accommodate a larger number of spectators. Who knows, with the new stadium they could be even more successful in Europe, what is clear is that they won't be moving any time soon. As we know, the Parc des Princes has been PSG's headquarters for more than 50 years, they have achieved many successes there.

The French government does not want to sell the Parc des Princes because it considers it the country's heritage and we also know that currently PSG actually no longer belongs to France because most of its ownership is owned by Qatar. I think currently they are planning to build a new stadium. But it is not yet clear when the plan will be implemented. On the other hand, will this cause problems among fans because for those who have been PSG fans for a long time, of course the Parc des Princes has a lot of memories and history. But if PSG really had their own stadium, of course they would be able to rebuild a new history in a new stadium.

Statistically, they are supposed to lose this match due to form and their statistical records, but I am expecting Lyon to get a point in the match so as not to lose hope on leaving the relegation zone.

If we look at the current season, Nice is indeed stronger than Lyon, but if we look at the previous season, Lyon and Nice's performance is actually almost the same because Lyon is a club like Nice and Monaco in League 1, only this season Lyon is experiencing bad luck and has to fight. to get out of the relegation zone and that is not an easy thing for Lyon because Lyon continued to experience continuous defeat last year, but entering this new year Lyon began to show improvement and started to improve slowly Lyon returned to its best performance and continued to win matches until finally Lyon can get out of the relegation zone for a while.

Statistical data cannot be used as a benchmark because Nice also just suffered a defeat at home against Monaco, while this match will be held at Lyon headquarters, while the mentality of Lyon players has been improving recently. I hope Lyon wins this match so that they can continues to improve ranked in league 1.

[rendravolt]

Nice is a strong team, but I think Lyon can put on a performance that will challenge them. They won against Monaco. Considering this, I wonder why they shouldn't do their best against Nice. Nice is a strong team, but Monaco was also strong. Nice is also edible. Even though it is very unlikely, Lyon's performance in the last matches gave me hope.

I hope that Lyon will still be able to give another win this week and even though the opponent is the number 2 team in the standings, namely Nice, I think they can still prevent it well while playing as hosts. I think Lyon is much more reliable and even though they are still slumped at the bottom of the table at least they have proven that they will not give up one bit this season.

Apart from that, Nice actually didn't appear very consistent and from the last 5 matches they were only able to win twice. I think Lyon can make it difficult for Nice to steal points and overturn their home advantage. If Lyon wins even by a narrow score in this week's match against Nice, it will be another good note and will also make them rise slowly and shift the teams above them.

Yes, even though Nice appears inconsistent and Lyon is the host, Nice can always be superior when competing against clubs that are far below them.
Lyon still has a chance but I just want to see Lyon hold a draw and Nice share the score with Lyon.
By proving that Lyon can hold a draw against Nice, I am sure that in the short term Lyon will climb back up to the safest position and far from the relegation zone.

Analyzing the statistics of the meeting between the two clubs, Nice is far superior to Lyon, but at least Lyon still has a chance to beat them because they have beaten Nice in the past when they were hosts and in the upcoming match I am very confident that Nice or Lyon can win without anyone a draw at the end of the match.
Lyon has a chance to win after getting new players in this winter transfer while Lyon also seems to be in a slightly better condition than before.
I will not place a bet on this match even though the odds are very big but betting on a club that is less consistent is very risky for me.

[Patrol69]

We can say that Lyon found itself in the last matches. It was difficult to beat Montpellier, but all problems were solved in the last 15 minutes and Lyon continues with 3 points after winning away with 2 goals. Now their rankings are a little better and I believe that Lyon has the power to beat every opponent. Maybe they can even beat PSG. Right now Lyon believes and we see it in the match. They are struggling with their souls.

Lyon have regained their lost enthusiasm along with their way of playing which was bad for some time this season so they were left behind and were in a bad zone. However, for now, Lyon still has a chance to get into the top ten if they can continue to win with quite a fantastic score in the upcoming matches for them in Ligue1. Apart from that, I also agree with what you said that Lyon could be able to beat PSG, who are currently quite strong at the top of the Ligue1 standings.

Regarding Lyon and their next match, it doesn't really matter if they lose the game against Nice to make them stop because Nice is not a team to have a close race with PSG, and even if Lyon gets some points, which is weird to see, Nice won't get anything from this game.
However, based on the last games we saw from Lyon, I don't think if they can cause any problems for a team like Nice.

Nice can compete with other clubs but this team is not a team to compete with PSG at all. If you try to find the difference between the two players then you can easily find the difference between the players of the two teams. PSG still has world class stars and this team is still full of stars but unlike other teams in the league there are no star players which is why PSG is always the league champion. The opposite is unlikely to happen this season as PSG is going to be the champion this season as well. All the other teams in the league can compete with different teams but I don't see any team that can compete with PSG in the end so I already accept that PSG will be the league champions this time like other times.

I'm happy for Lyon that they got another win. It was a really tough win against Montpellier though. Because the comeback from 0-1 to 2-1 came thanks to really late goals. But what is important is that Lyon managed to get three points in these bad times.    They are already 3 points over the relegation zone now which must be a little relieving.

But there are still 17 more games to play in the league. Lyon will need to be as consistent as possible to stay in the Ligue 1. It would be really disappointing to see a team like Lyon relegating so I hope they will manage to stay with the help of their experience too.

[rendravolt]

It's really nice to see Rennes being the only team that is unbeaten in the last 5 so far and they have risen to 7th place in the standings with 31 points. I still remember this team was quite chaotic at the start of the season and they were stuck at the bottom for a long time. But they have proven enough with the enthusiasm they have and are still trying to win to be able to improve their position in the standings.

Rennes is one step closer to being in the top 4 of the standings if they continue to maintain their current consistency and they need at least 2 wins or more to advance to the top. Rennes' next opponent is a team in the relegation zone, namely Clermont, and there is no doubt that Rennes can win again, especially as they are favored as hosts in this week's match. Well, Rennes can do it when other teams are inconsistency.

Basically, Lyon managed to improve the quality of its performance for the better and with this success, it certainly had a big impact on the good results that Lyon got at this moment and could slowly stay away from the relegation zone. Because after all, although in the next Ligue 1 match the fact is that Lyon will also play against Nice but ya, I still believe it looks like Lyon will not lose by Nice.

Because after all, in previous matches Lyon also managed to defeated Monaco, Marseille and Lille and therefore, playing at home against Nice I sure Lyon will not lose. If for example Lyon can still manage to play well, then at least Lyon will still be able to get full points at home by beating Nice, who knows. Because anyway, at this moment at least Nice is also experiencing instability and or a decline in performance so ya, of course it will be a good moment for Lyon to still get points whether full point or just by sharing points.

Lyon was gradually becoming a relegation team and we knew for sure that they didn't want that for themselves. Their recent games have been impressive on their side and it seems like there's a huge possibility to be out fully from the bottom zone. They have a couple of games to go and they have to secure at least a good number points to be out of the relegation zone completely even though they're trying better than a few weeks back already.

 Hopefully, they'd be able to play more well and win some games and draw some and also avoid much losses too because every loss will affect their chance. Extra efforts and determination needs to be put to the team and they've got face the reality of the battle they've got at hand. No laziness or backwardness should be entertained too. Their league is not so competitive and they normally themselves have the strength before now to compete. There's still high chance for them. Asides the 3points being secured, the goal margin should be considered too as it plays it's own role in keeping a club at the top.

Lyon just needs to pass this season and stay in the French League 1 and try to improve the team during the end of the season because currently they are not in the good situation at all and even Lyon is about to get relegated in the end of this season they continue the weak performance.
The next game for Lyon is going to be a hard game because they are going to play against a team like Nice and Nice is currently in the second place of the table.

Nice are the only competitive team capable of stopping Paris Saint-Germain. The team's board is working hard to establish themselves as a crucial sector for the team's growth and development. Though not easy, cooperative association yields a desirable ramifications. Lyon faced a difficult struggle in gaining major key spots on the Ligue One table, but they were able to do it thanks to their players' finest performances and enormous supporter solidarity. Lyon has brought back their fantastic performance from the previous season, and this is a huge opportunity for them to restore the squad to glory.

Lyon this season is playing very badly beyond expectations until week 21 or 13 matches towards the end of the competition. Lyon is still competing at the bottom of the table to just avoid the relegation zone. This is not like Lyon in past seasons. who always compete at the top to win the championship.

[IvugeoEvolutionCoin]

17 February Lyon vs Nice match will be held. Looking forward to enjoy this match. I will bet in support of Nice team in this match. Nice team is in 2nd position of the points table. Lyon team is far behind because of the players of Lyon team are not performing well.  It will be seen how well they can do in this match on 17 February. Maybe Lyon team will not be able to score any goals in this match.

The next game for Lyon is going to be a hard game because they are going to play against a team like Nice and Nice is currently in the second place of the table.

And I'm sure Lyon can still survive in League 1 because Lyon has shown improvement recently. This can be a benchmark that Lyon will not give up to continue performing as best as possible to win in the remaining matches this season and that is not an easy thing for Lyon. because if Lyon is careless even a little he could return to the relegation zone because his current position is still not safe enough to remain in league 1.
Lyon's next match is quite tough because Lyon has to face Nice who is in second place and hopefully Lyon can give a surprise in this match like when they beat Monaco a few weeks ago.

Yes, this season is the toughest season for Lyon, who are just struggling to get out of the red zone, whereas the last time Lyon competed at the top of the points table was 4 seasons ago when Lyon successfully finished in 4th position.
Currently experiencing a very deep decline in performance but I really understand this condition because sometimes a popular club can experience a very deep decline when experiencing a problem but I don't know what caused Lyon to become like this.
Lyon is one of the popular clubs in League 1 and we don't need to worry about its position because this club will definitely stay in League 1 even if it works a little hard to force the players to perform optimally.

This is a very good improvement for Rennes to face Milan tomorrow because if Rennes playing very well in the domestic league it could be a good sign that Rennes is in good condition and ready to compete with confidence, we all know that Milan is not a club that it easy to beat because Milan is an elite club in Serie A. But if Rennes is able to surprised in this match then they can advances to the last 16 of the Europa League and eliminate Milan in the play-off round.

After a bad series at the started of this season, now in the remaining matches this season, Rennes is starting to show good performance and continues to winnings I am sure that in the match against the weakest club like Clermont, which is in the relegation zone, he will wins again and get full points so that he will get closer to clubs that will be in the top 5 if Rennes continues to performed consistently like this.

I think it is fine to learn from history so they don't become overconfident in the last remaining games, not to mention their track records are always hanging around the 8th position or so in the last few seasons. I'm not sure if relegation is on the table, but they should avoid a disastrous season like Monaco in 18/19. Granted their circumstances are different, but at least they need to realize that a good record means nothing is your team and the result is terrible. If my math is correct, they should aim for 40 points if they want to be safe from relegation based on the last 3 seasons' results, not impossible to achieve but definitely hard to do with their current form. CMIIW.

[Hirose UK]

PSG achieved another winning streak after an unsatisfactory result occurred in the match against Brest in Ligue 1 because it ended in draw, but the French Cup competition brought these two team together again and PSG avenged the previous draw with big win 3 - 1.
Now it looks like PSG will get more wins and make it possible to become the strongest candidate to become champion in every competition they participate in, PSG will also be able to truly become successful team this season.
For Ligue 1 alone, PSG now has 50 points saved and in second place Nice only has 39 points and it is clear that PSG is team with complete dominance in the Ligue 1 competition, PSG will still be the ruler who cannot be overthrown.
However, this will be different if Mbappe really leaves and I am sure that in that condition PSG will become weak team because they lose the strength they have, PSG will suffer difficult pressure.

[Strongkored]

Lyon this season is playing very badly beyond expectations until week 21 or 13 matches towards the end of the competition. Lyon is still competing at the bottom of the table to just avoid the relegation zone. This is not like Lyon in past seasons. who always compete at the top to win the championship.

Lyon is very likely to escape from the relegation zone because they are currently three points ahead of Lorient who is in 16th position and five points ahead of Metz who is in 17th place. Moreover, it looks like they are starting to play well, and winning against Marseille is the key to their revival even though there is an opportunity to lose again in the next match is still wide open but the teams below them are also very likely to lose so Lyon's position will still be safe to be able to play in Ligue 1 next season.
Facing Nice, they also have a chance to get a point, even if only one, because Nice, even though they are in a much better position than them, their performance is not that impressive because they only focus on defense, if Lyon can break through that and score a goal then they will win again at home.
