French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[Google+]

The current difference in points shows how easy it is for PSG to win the Ligue 1 trophy every season, there are still 6 matches left and it is very likely that PSG will lock up the trophy sooner. Apart from that, the opportunity for PSG to wipe out all the remaining matches is quite open, even though recently Enrique fleet has often played draws.

On the other hand, one instant way to make Ligue 1 more competitive is the entry of rich investors such as PIF. Previously there were rumors that they planned to acquire a majority stake in Marseille. However, until now there is no certainty about this news, if it is realized then PSG will have a balanced competitor at the domestic level.

I think for now there is no other team that can prevent PSG from winning, because indeed they have left other teams with a large enough difference in points, with 6 games left and also a large point difference, of course it is difficult for rival teams to shift PSG's current position, besides that if we seeing PSG's remaining opponents at this time, of course it is unlikely that PSG will lose points.

It is not unusual so far if in Ligue 1 PSG is too easy to leave their rivals and even every season we see this happen, PGS's financial strength makes them able to dominate the league very easily and even we may have to wait a long time to see other teams win Ligue 1, for now we do need big investors to take over other clubs in Ligue 1,  So that way we will be able to see competitive competition happening later, but as you said, at the moment it seems very difficult for big investors to enter and acquire Ligue 1 clubs other than PSG, of course it is quite surprising indeed when investors who acquired PSG before so easily do so, but precisely when other teams to be acquired seem to get obstacles like Marseille you said.

Clubs that are in the relegation zone are sometimes able to provide unexpected surprises. They try to perform as well as possible against whoever their opponent is, regardless of whether the club is strong or not, but what is clear is that Metz will take advantage of the time that there are few matches left. This has often happened when we look at clubs that are at the bottom of the table are able to give a surprise by winning against top clubs like what Metz did against Lens. This was a very important victory for Metz even though initially Metz conceded a goal before Lens, but that didn't dampen the mentality of the Metz players, they didn't just gave up and put up fierce resistance to Lens.

Indeed, Lens really regrets this because they failed to beat a club that was in the relegation zone even though this was an opportunity for him to continue collecting as many points as possible to be able to take him to the Champions League like last season, but it seems like Lens is only able to fight to get a Europa League ticket. Apart from that, he also has to get past Nice and Lille, while the difference between Lens from 4th place is 6 points.

Lens lost to Metz who’re in the relegation side, yes this result wasn’t expected though I still knew Metz will be a mjaor threat. This is because the pressure which relegation teams use in playing is usually top notch and they are always known to be spoilers of the hopes of some clubs who want to at least win something.

 The result was a big blow to Lens as this will now mean they might not be able to catch up in the UCL spot they were chasing. This is now more like a bad reward for their under performance this season. Now I think the board will know how much it’s imperative for them to invest on the team so as to be able to challenge better next season.

 ⁠Lens in that match were looking like the better side as they were at first leading by a goal but they lost it totally and Metz were able to get the win in that match who showed great determination despite being seen as a team in the relegation zone. I think most teams should cue from this win of Metz and know how much determination helps when they take on key matches.

 Lens now having lost UCL spot must try to be able to secure Europa League spot. Their remaining matches are quite tough and with the loss to Lens you can only imagine if they’ll be able to challenge for the UEL spot again.

That was unexpected from Lens to lose against the worst team in Ligue 1 after Clermont Foot..
Lens started the season horribly and now this defeat? The worst part is that they were leading by one goal for most part of the first half, in addition to not being able to score from some attacks.
They might not lose their position in the table this round but this will allow the other teams to get closer from them..

Unexpected result for Lens how possibility defeated by relegation zone teams Metz, get more difficult for Lens raise top fourth standings and repeat their achievement last season by qualifying to champion league. Leading one goals on the early minutes but Lens failed for defending the winning result and put their self will raise one spot for Europe League or champion league?
Metz has good capital for facing 5 matches left and try to defend in Ligue 1 competition next season, has too close points with Lorient, Nantes and Le Havre still has chance for Mets get out from relegation zone and get chance with relegation playoff round if fail moving up from relegation standings.

This loss is a big problem for Lens. Nobody expected them to suffer this defeat. Meanwhile, Metz became hopeful with this win. There is only a 2 point difference between them and the 14th ranked team in the league. The relegation zone can change at any time, there is a very different race to avoid relegation.

Lens losing that game to Metz is devastating. They've been on fire all season, but losing to a squad everyone thought was dead? That wrecks their campaign. The bottom teams, trying to stay in Ligue 1, are smelling blood. Metz may feel like they were saved. Lens gets a gut hit, no doubt

In football, and any sport, underdogs thrive in moments like this. The beauty, frustration, and wildness of it all. Lens has starved weaker teams previously. It's alarming for a high-aiming team. Every game matters in this season. In particular while fighting a desperate opponent. No complacency, no easy contest

I feel these nowadays some teams are really unpredictable and unstable because we saw even Lens losing the game against Metz and it was not predictable. In fact, Lens is not a weak team and they are currently in the 6th place in the table while they are even racing for the European League ticket and that's something they can reach easily if they don't lose the chance as they lost against Metz.
Recently Lens couldn't have a good performance and now after this loss maybe it's the time to say even the next game for them against Clermont Foot won't be easy for them.

Actually it's normal that towards end of the season most teams gradually becomes very though and try to make sure they make up for the mistakes they made during the season which made them unable to get to a very good point on the table a d that usually cause competitiveness such that performance of certain teams become unpredictable and for tem's at the top already they may have fatigue plyers which may affect their results too.

I wouldn't actually say I'm too surprised at the performance of Metz because even lens hasn't been really consistent this season with their performance as they have most of the times not been in their best of form so for me i would say i expected that anything can actually happened because both teams weren't even to be seen as been better than each other but as such that are to be considered average teams . But then i think lens actually did had more potential then Metz because they have been trying to be good even in their poor form at times so they are considerably doing fairly enough.

Metz is actually an average team while lens could be considered a little above average as they have been doing much better than Metz this season and they have a relatively good strength then Metz does, they also have a fair depth and in their performance it showed that they had some form of a good attack as compared to that of their opponent so it was actually expected they win the games but then football happened.

Having Mbappe in the team makes PSG have a scary attacking force, but without him, I think PSG will still be too strong for Ligue 1 because they can still afford to bring great talents. They will only struggle in Champions League where big teams competing in competitive league chould make PSG being just underdog.

Having enrique is also a big luck for them, because he knows how to utilize good talents and build a strong team. With Enrique in the club, PSG will still be a dominant force in Ligue 1 even if Mbappe choose to leave. As long as the resource is still there to back up the team to progress, it would be hard for any team to break the dominance of PSG. It just sounds unfair to have a team with too big resource competing in Ligue 1.

PSG dominance in Ligue 1 turned out to be their weakness when playing in the Champions League, this is PSG disease for which there is currently no antidote. PSG management has spent a lot of money to build a star studded squad, their main goal is to increase their strength when competing for the Champions League trophy, but so far this trophy has not been achieved. The competition in Ligue 1 is quite easy for them to overcome, PSG dominance makes Ligue 1 less competitive.

Mbappe departure next season will not mean that PSG dominance in Ligue 1 can be simply broken by other contestants, they will still make Ligue 1 like the Farmers League. It must be admitted that the financial power they have feels unfair, PSG rival teams in Ligue 1 have difficulty building a squad like theirs because they don't have abundant money. If PSG can keep Luis Enrique at the club for a long time, PSG will most likely be able to win the Champions League trophy, like Pep Guardiola did at Manchester City.

I think you're absolutely right with your opinion about Paris Saint Germaine's poor outing in the UEFA Champions League being caused by their dominance in the French league. The French league without doubt is the less most competitive among the top five leagues in Europe and for a team that's always dominating it, Paris Saint Germaine are always more relaxed when they play crucial games in the UEFA Champions League because to them, they think it'll be as easy as it used to be in their domestic league.
I think the presence of Kylian Mbappe in the team should've given them all the needed support they need to win the UEFA Champions League title this season but if they fail to at least reach the final with the France international, qualifying for the final when he's left the club I think will be very difficult for them.

[Strongkored]

Lyon had like 9 points in 9 games at the start or at some point, now they are 10th and I am not even joking they could finish as high as 5th place. I am pretty sure they won't, but the fact that they could is the greatest thing. With a win now, they could go above Reims and Rennes, making them 8th, and then the difference is just a few points between them and the fifth that should be the most important part. I believe that it is going to be quite important to make that difference and it could mean something decent.

I just hope that people could see that difference. Lyon is doing wonderful and that makes me so happy, they could just fail, they could finish 10th as well, doesn't really matter, they managed to make that climb and that's what matters.

The match was quite intense if we look at the goals that were scored and also the two red cards that the referee had to issue, and Lyon managed to get 3 points which made their ranking increase, but their position was not yet safe because the teams ranked 5th to 10th were very close in difference so the competition will be very tight.
However, Lyon getting 5th place in the standings really depends on the results of the other teams, so they could get it but the opposite is also not impossible, especially Nice and Lens will certainly try to maintain their current position as well as Marseille who have one match postponed and Week 30's match will change the standings and Lyon could drop in ranking because they will face PSG a team that still needs a few points to ensure the title this season.

[rendravolt]

Both collecting one red card made the match between Lyon and Brest so hot and the score ended with so many goals. A home win with a score of 3-4 for Lyon was very important, especially since they received direct support from the fans and this is a very desired result considering that they will continue to fight to be able to experience other European competitions next season.

If you look at the match statistics, the two teams played quite evenly, where ball possession was not much different and goal expectations were almost the same. It's just that even though the match would end in a draw, Lyon managed to score the winning goal in the minute of injury time via the penalty spot after a Brest player committed a fairly heavy foul.

This result makes Brest fail to widen the gap from Monaco and this week Brest must be prepared to be moved from 2nd position considering that their opponent is Monaco and I think Monaco will not forgive Brest.

[Hirose UK]

PSG wouldn't feel a big pressure in the league indeed. There is no reason for that while they are in a really comfortable condition. Even if the point gap gets lower still PSG wouldn't lose the title to anyone. They are just too powerful for the remaining teams. It is very rare that we see a team beating PSG for the title in a season.

This is why the Ligue 1 is very boring as well.    There is literally no competition for the league title most of the time. It is all because of one team being bought by rich people and the others' looking at them from a far point. I'm not even sure about whether this would change in this league in the future either.

That right, because the difference is still 10 points and PSG still has 1 match pending, this is clear conclusion that PSG will still be at the top and finish this season competition as Ligue 1 champions.
There are only few more matches left and we will see the completion of the competition which will again make PSG the defending champion and of course this is proof that in French football PSG is the strongest team that always dominates.
But I think PSG can feel that pressure next season and of course next season we can see that the competition in Ligue 1 will be even more interesting and really competitive.

For now, they are still preparing their performance to be able to finish the UCL second leg match which they previously lost to Barcelona.
Next match is an away match for PSG and it looks like they will lose, being eliminated from the UCL in this quarter-final.

[hyudien]

The Nice club also still cannot confirm their position in the standings, the difference is too close to Lens making them also experience pressure. The most important match to win is hosting Lorient with 3 points on paper in the hands of the home team, however looking at the previous match, the mid-table team results were far from predicted by Lens being the favorite but instead they lost to a relegated team. I'm not even very active in betting on the League 1 competition because clubs other than PSG are just puppets whose role is not that important. I also hope that Nice doesn't get 3 points so that Lens is given the opportunity to take advantage of this opportunity again. At least if they don't qualify for the UCL next season, then Lens need to target the Europa League.

Teams' matches in Ligue 1 are difficult to predict, their performance is indeed unstable. Lens and Nice also have to compete in the remaining matches to at least get a place in European competition.
it is very difficult for other teams in Ligue 1 to catch PSG who dominates. If someone plans it, they have to prepare well for next season. I also think there will have to be big changes in the team to be able to compete with PSG's dominance in Ligue 1.

Well, even the strongest team in Ligue 1 is still very difficult to predict even if they face a team that is much weaker than them. Just like when they faced Clermont in the last match, how could the team at the top of the standings meet the team at the bottom of the standings only to achieve a draw, that was something very surprising. Maybe I can understand because their main priority now is the Champions League, but still they should be able to win even if they only field second-tier players.
Ligue 1 is not interesting to watch because it is almost certain who will become champion here, and they can do that without any significant pressure from other teams. What makes this league so interesting is that they can't provide great consistency, so they easily lose a lot of pounds. This doesn't mean to underestimate Ligue 1, but of course we can judge how the competition here goes every season.

PSG's annual dominance makes it hard to invest. The Bundesliga was reinvigorated after Leverkusen broke Bayern's streak. You wonder if something big could change France's power balance and make it competitive. The sport has lost its appeal due of predictability

Remember that PSG's domestic dominance doesn't guarantee Champions League success. They fail on the biggest stage. Imagine the consequences if Mbappe leaves - that alone might start a new Ligue 1 era. Though unlikely, football can undergo huge changes quickly. Seen it before. A truly competitive Ligue 1 depends on that glimmer of hope

PSG might have quality and expensive players but they can only beat teams in Ligue 1 and not in European competitions like the UCL, they will definitely fail along the way, that's why I once said that if Mbappe wants money, he doesn't need to stay there. PSG but in the Arab league, he can earn a lot of money, after all why is he keeping himself at PSG which doesn't provide any progress in the UCL, just look at him always failing to bring PSG into the UCL final and only always getting the title in Ligue 1 no more than That.

I think Mbappe is still young and he still has enough time to spread his wings in a team that has the potential to enter the UCL final or win it, for example Madrid because of course Madrid will have a striker who is quite productive like Mbappe, I am sure that next season Madrid will be the team which is strong if Mbappe succeeds in moving to Madrid, I am also not sure that PSG will succeed in beating Barcelona at their home ground, of course it will obviously be difficult because Barcelona is quite strong playing at their home ground. PSG next season must improve with players who are more qualified and have a lot of experience in the UCL.

PSG once built the best lineup to win the Champions League trophy, but they failed to realize this dream, financial strength cannot buy an instant mentality. PSG needs to build a foundation with a winning mentality, which is one of the main indicators for competing in the Champions League. It's no use having a star-studded squad if their egos can't be united to achieve one goal.

We can see that the Bundesliga is also not that competitive, they are slightly better than Ligue 1, but Bayern has won the Champions League trophy. Maybe that's a very relevant example that we can still convey, PSG needs to build a squad like Bayern method. Financial strength makes things easier, but sometimes this backfires.

The news of Mbappe leaving is still widely rumored, PSG management does not need to force him to stay longer, because the player is no longer interested in defending PSG. Why keep wooing him to stay, it's better for PSG to focus on finding new players next season, who knows, Mbappe departure will make it easier for PSG to win the Champions League trophy.

The owners of Paris Saint Germaine over the years have spent hugely to make sure they extend their dominance in France to the whole of Europe but unfortunately for them, things have not worked the way they wanted it to work out and that has drawn so much criticism from people who thinks that money can not but them success. The club have signed some of the world best players but including Lionel Messi, Neymar Jr and Kylian Mbappe but are yet to lift the UEFA Champions League in their history. In my own assessment of the whole issue, I think the main problem why they've failed to achieve that aim is because they've not been able to get a manager who truly understands the team and the best tactical approach that'll bring out the best from them.
Manchester City before 2008 was one of the average teams in England but after their current owner invested hugely in the club, they started to win domestic titles but weren't able to reach the semi finals of the UCL until they signed Pep Guardiola who transformed the club's success history and even led them to their first UCL trophy. I think Paris Saint Germaine should try and get a manager that'll speak the best understandable football language to the club players and see the amount of success they'll record.

PSG are very good in their league and in their, you can be rest assured of them getting at least a draw and another sure thing to happen is them being able to win the league probably before the seaon even comes close to and end. The team isn’t able to do same thing in the UCL and it’s now becoming quite worrisome.

 The team has had quite some stars and you can say that they’ll win the UCL but surprisingly they get eliminated in either the Quarterfinals or the Round of 16 and you begin to wonder why it goes on so for the team. This is one of the major reason why Kylian is about leaving the club to get and win European trophies elsewhere.

 His move to Real Madrid will sure be a nice and smart one as him being in that club will sure increase the club’s chances of winning the ucl and he’ll also be on the limelight because he’s quite young and has the ability to perform exceptionally. Real Madrid are also the giants of Europe and Being in a team like that gives you as a player more chance of winning an European trophy.

 ⁠The return leg of the ucl is back and you can now wonder what chances psg have going forward as they’ll need to be able to defeat Barca at the Camp nou and you can now wonder how possible that could be. For the club to get European success, they’ll need to get massive recruitment and they should be quality players who are quite equal to the task, this will help the club’s performance in Europe amongst her counterparts.

It's been a norm for PSG not to really feel pressured from the Ligue 1 as it always appears that they have got a hack with which they always use to stay ahead in the Ligue 1 and be able to always maintain their dominance, this has been one of their strongest method of making sure the Ligue 1 exerts no pressure on them so they will have a better mind set to face the champions league which has been priority to them .

One thing PSG enjoys the most has to be their financial strength as it has really been a huge strength for them such that they have the purchasing power to get almost any player they want to be in their team provided such player is up for sale, that has been one of their biggest advantage over all other Ligue 1 teams and they have aswell been able to strengthen their team so much that they have an unparalleled matching strength with most of those other teams in the Ligue 1 so most definitely they have they ability and capacity to win these teams and reducing the chances of them been pressured into have challenges with the Ligue 1 games.

But then one of the strong hood of PSG has been in one of their key player mbappe, and by next season he will be leaving i think that too may have an effect on the team and they may likely not be able to enjoy the dominance they had enjoyed all along because it may be challenged by others knowing they don't have that strength again but then if the rumors of them sorting after osimhen is true then they may just be having a good replacement.

PSG has been too easy to dominate Ligue 1 and make PSG soft so that when they compete with other stronger teams in Europe of course make it difficult for them to win, currently PSG is focusing on the Champions League as their main target in winning trophies but unfortunately they continue to fail to get it so far,  The large number of star players in the PSG squad does not guarantee them the Champions League trophy for the first time in the club's history and failure after failure continues to cost them a lot of money to continue to improve their squad, and I think no matter how good the PSG squad is, of course without competitive competition in Ligue 1 it will still make them mentally weak.

Currently PSG face a life and death match against Barcelona in the second leg later, even if now PSG is really ready but I doubt if they can beat Barcelona in the second leg later, Mbappe continues to be PSG's mainstay so far so when Mbappe performs badly of course PSG will also end the match badly during this time,  What you say is true, because whether or not a league is competitive at this time will make a team's mentality affected and just like PSG who play in a league is not competitive, of course it will make their mentality continue to be weak.

[Silence Scream]

Honestly PSG doesn't feel any pressure at all at Ligue one, the point difference is 10, so it is not like they would care. They could lose this game too and not care about it since it is not going to matter to them. I understand that it may feel like maybe a little different to some people, but that's just the way it is right now. I feel like the best way to go would be making sure that we are going to handle getting better one way or another, and we could probably see the situation change a lot more later on.

I hope that we could probably get a better result, but seems like it is not that easy. I get that it may not look amazing so far, but I believe that we are going to probably end up with a much better result eventually.

We should feel more better when we have the chances of earning profits from the system, I know it's going to be tough but with acquainted Solis strategies, we can actually become profitable in the system. Paris Saint-Germain are reluctant towards Ligue One games because there's no presence of tough competitive run for the title, PSG continue to smash other opponents without any harden obstacles. Luis Enrique and the rest of the squad knows they're the current champion for the Ligue One this season, however their top target was the UCL title but it looks impossible for them.

Honestly, I can't wait for Mbappé to actually leave PSG. Because that is going to make them irrelevant. He and some other star players staying in the club was making them relevant. But when he leaves the club is going to lose the ounce of relevance that they had left. If any club that I know which does not deserve to win any other competition, probably it's PSG. Only thing good going on for them is probably the coach that they got. Maybe he will be able to fix the team a little. I am not going to get my hopes up though. Because any time I thought PSG was capable of doing something, they failed miserably. And not winning the Champions League title with such a star-filled team has made me doubt them more.

Their 3-2 defeat against Barcelona was also a great disappointment. Mbappe is the most valuable player of this team. After he leaves the team, Paris Saint Germain may have problems in the offensive line for a long time. The name Osimhen was being talked about instead, but I don't think he could be as successful as Mbappe. If PSG advances to the second leg in Spain this year, maybe they will play with more hope in the semi-finals.

Teams' matches in Ligue 1 are difficult to predict, their performance is indeed unstable. Lens and Nice also have to compete in the remaining matches to at least get a place in European competition.
it is very difficult for other teams in Ligue 1 to catch PSG who dominates. If someone plans it, they have to prepare well for next season. I also think there will have to be big changes in the team to be able to compete with PSG's dominance in Ligue 1.

Betting on league 1 clubs other than PSG in my opinion is too risky, they are difficult to predict, even though they are in the middle of the table or in the top 3. They are also not completely consistent in winning and can said to be less stable. So it is better to bet on other leagues than are not as stable as the league 1, this league is not as exciting as more competitive leagues such as the Champions League. European League, English League, La Liga, Italian league, these leagues bring in clubs that are not only dominated by one club, so we can still gain profits from betting, not just betting on clubs that are at the top level, although this does not guarantee that it will match predictions. but in my opinion they are more interesting than league 1 which is less competitive.

It is impossible for League 1 clubs to overtake PSG if they do not have the same finances as PSG and cannot buy better players to support their success in League 1. Unless there are investors rich who are willing to choose one of the League 1 clubs to overhaul big changes will mean their performance will improve and they will be able to compete with PSG, but if there haven't been any changes, I don't think any club will be able to break PSG's dominance in League 1.

Remember that PSG's domestic dominance doesn't guarantee Champions League success. They fail on the biggest stage. Imagine the consequences if Mbappe leaves - that alone might start a new Ligue 1 era. Though unlikely, football can undergo huge changes quickly. Seen it before. A truly competitive Ligue 1 depends on that glimmer of hope

Yeah this doesn't secure a Champions League title for them. There is a huge difference between the Ligue 1 and Champions League. Even though PSG have good players in the squad they have much more challenging opponents in the Champions League. They still couldn't learn how to find their way to the trophy for years.

The board tried quite many managers in the meantime for Champions League success. However the biggest achievement they have had is to reach the finale. They might not even see the semi finals this year if they don't turn things around in the rematch.    This would just push Mbappe more to leave the team this summer.
