French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[Velvet78]

PSG beat Barcelona in the second leg of the Champions League yesterday, so can we say if their mentality has improved and become favourites to win the UCL this season?
I don't think we can say if PSG will be favourites to win the UCL, because I think PSG's victory in the second leg is inseparable from the red card obtained by Barcelona in that match, so it benefits PSG to beat Barcelona and I think if Barcelona still play with 11 players it is certainly not impossible for us now to see Barcelona in the Champions League semi-finals.
The championship competition has long ended for other teams in Ligue 1, so now other teams in Ligue 1 are only to competing for a tickets Champions League next season, while the Ligue 1 trophy competition has long been only a dream for other teams besides PSG.

I agree. We can't say PSG are favoured to win the Champions League title from now on. If Barcelona didn't get that red card I was expecting them to eliminate PSG. I believe Dortmund also have a chance to eliminate this PSG. I always defended Atletico Madrid against Dortmund for example but they proved me really wrong. The work Dortmund did was really impressive. 

PSG had a good history against Dortmund in the group stage maybe but in this stage we never know what happens. Even if PSG reach the finale I think their opponent will be Real Madrid most probably and Real Madrid will add another trophy to their museum.

PSG was lucky because Borussia Dortmund was their opponent, if it had been Atletico Madrid, it would have been very difficult to go to the UCL final. Even so, PSG can't underestimate Borussia Dortmund, because sometimes Borussia Dortmund can produce unexpected results.

On the other side of the UCL match we'll also see Bayern Munich - Real Madrid, PSG fans hope that Bayern Munich will make it to the final, but is that possible considering that even Real Madrid can win against Manchester City who are more favored?

PSG are lucky indeed, they were lucky by facing the weakest teams among those present and even in the semifinals they won't face the hardest teams like Real Madrid or Bayern Munich.
PSG should now hope to see Real Madrid eliminated by Bayern Munich because Bayern are easier for them than Real and for once they could hope to get the Champions League title. Obviously they should not underestimate Borussia Dortmund

Statistically, Borussia Dortmund is considered the weakest team of the 4 teams in the semifinals, but their success in the semifinals shows that they are not that weak. After all, these 4 teams are the 4 best teams at the moment so there is no reason for a team to underestimate its opponent.
Paris Saint Germain does have an advantage, but that doesn't mean they will be able to escape easily, they have to work hard to beat Borussia Dortmund, because Borussia Dortmund will definitely perform as well as possible to win.
While other people are thinking about the match between Paris Saint Germain and Real Madrid, I am thinking whether this season we will see the final match between the two teams from the Bundesliga and this will be a derby match, quite interesting to look forward to.

PSG made it to the semi-finals of the Champions League this season and at least one step away for PSG to reach the final round of the Champions League, many say that previously Atletico Madrid were lucky enough to meet Dortmund who were the weakest team in the quarterfinals, but in fact we can see how Dortmund can eliminate Atletico Madrid to go to the semi-finals this season,  Although able to reach the semi-finals of course today we also still see how Dortmund were underestimated when they met PSG now, I think it should not be for PSG to underestimate Dortmund because after all Dortmund is a team that is unpredictable in every game, to be honest compared to PSG, I am more inclined to see Dortmund who will go to the final because so far Dortmund a compact team and they have an even quality of players in every line.

The semi-final match will of course be very exciting but it seems that PSG's luck when beating Barcelona will not be repeated in the semi-final match later against Dortmund, this season Ligue 1 is really quite surprising with still leaving their two teams in the semifinals of the European competition, nyakni, PSG in the Champions League and Marseille in the Europa League.

PSG success in qualifying for the semifinals cannot be separated from luck, they immediately took control of the match after Barcelona played with ten players. PSG, which is very ambitious about winning the UCL title for the first time, must play with its best game when facing Dortmund. Even though the quality of PSG squad is more complete than Dortmund, they must not underestimate their opponent.

PSG can direct its focus to the UCL after being quite far ahead in points with its second placed rival, Luis Enrique must maintain the fitness of his players in preparation for facing Dortmund. The main players must get more hours of rest so that they are ready when playing in important matches. Enrique needs to rotate when his team faces weak teams in Ligue 1 to prevent his players from getting injured.

I thought it would be impossible to happen. Madrid was able to beat City, which was said to be the strongest candidate to win the UCL. I never thought that they would be knocked out by Munich in the semifinals. Madrid could lose to Munich in the first leg but we know Madrid has an extraordinary winning mentality and the team is able to play solidly under pressure. PSG is motivated to get the UCL title this season and I think Dortmund is not a difficult opponent for them. my prediction is that PSG will go to the final but they will lose to Madrid in the final.

I thought Nice will be able to managed their peformance and at least can staying at top 3 position on League Table but clearly i was wrong because Nice performance was not consistent and since January until this month Nice has been through an 10 matches in Ligue 1 and they only can collect 2 wins so this makes their position was out from top 3 and i think it's hard for them to finish at Champion League zone because other contender just like Lille and Monaco can playing more consistent compare to them and today for opening match of week 29 Nice will fight against Lorient

On the paper indeed Nice can be the winner of this match but Nice recent condition which make me doubt they can able to beat Lorient and the bookmakers was provide low odds for Nice win @1.54 but i highly doubt this option could be the best pick because Nice performance is very unpredictable and about the outcomes of this match i was thinking to bets under 2.5 goals or both teams to scores and i think these options is much safe than bets for Nice win

At the start of the season Nice suddenly became a team of concern by occupying the top four positions in the Ligue 1 standings, Francesco Farioli's team appeared strong in every match they played. Unfortunately Nice is more inclined towards the defense they built, but is weak on the front lines. Nice only relied on defense and then counter-attacked if they had the opportunity, it was proven that Nice was not very productive in terms of scoring goals throughout the matches they played. in the end, Nice was unable to maintain its position, then experienced a decline in ranking and is now in 5th place in the Ligue 1 standings. As for Monaco, they have the opportunity to overtake the ranking occupied by Brest. Moreover, these two teams will meet each other this week.

We return to Nice, early this morning Nice will play a match against Lorient. playing at home, should be an advantage for Nice as the home team. Moreover, Lorient is a team in the red zone. referring to what you said regarding predictions for this match, I completely agree that it would be ideal to bet on the option Under 2.5 goals or, 2.75 goals. but I'm not sure if both teams can score goals, ideally my estimate might be one single goal from this match or with a score of 0-0. So, to be sure, we are waiting for the battle between these two teams to take place.

Yes, Real Madrid has a chance ahead of Bayern Munich, but have you forgotten that this is the Champions League which can give us unexpected surprises? In the quarter-finals alone, the club which was the favorite actually lost and was eliminated from the Champions League, and that just happened to Real Madrid in this semifinal round. Apart from that, I also make Real Madrid the biggest favorite in this round.

Paris Saint Germain is lucky enough to face Borussia Dortmund, but there is still no guarantee that they can win this match. They must be able to work hard to win. If they win then they will be in the final and that is what they have been waiting for. However, in the final they will be faced with clubs that are better than them in my opinion, both Real Madrid and Bayern Munich are opponents that will be very difficult for them to beat in the final. They must have a very good mentality to be able to beat the 2 clubs I mentioned.

Of the 4 remaining teams, we have to admit that Borussia Dortmund is the weakest team, and therefore PSG must really take advantage of the moment and opportunity they currently have. PSG has the advantage from the H2H side, because of their 4 meetings in the UCL, PSG was able to win 2 matches and 1 draw. There's no reason for them to be eliminated in the semi-finals other than possible bad luck (the same case as Manchester City who are favorites in QF).

What you predict could indeed happen in this season's Champions League, but I also don't see Dortmund as a weak team in this season's Champions League so that Dortmund could get rid of PSG and meet Real Madrid in the final round of this season's Champions League. Because from what has happened in the last few rounds of the Champions League, I really didn't think that Dortmund could qualify for the semifinals. So other unexpected things could still happen in this season's semifinal match in the Champions League.

There have been many wrong predictions in the Champions League this season including Barcelona, ​​Atletico Madrid, Arsenal and Manchester City qualifying for the semi-finals. But in reality, all the teams mentioned above failed and they had to accept their failure. Manchester City are the strongest candidates this season, that is proven by how they play, but they are just unlucky in the penalty shootout.

Bayern Munich can provide tough resistance when they meet Real Madrid in the semi-finals, but Real Madrid has a good record against Bayern Munich. Real Madrid are the main favorites to win the Champions League title now, but no one knows for sure whether they can actually beat Bayern Munich or will also go home having failed in the semi-finals.

PSG are well on their way to getting an opponent in the semi-final against Dortmund. However, Dortmund is not a team that should be underestimated after their great performance against Atletico Madrid in the second leg. Dortmund are dangerous, but PSG are favorites to qualify for this season's final. PSG won at home against Dortmund in the group stage match, while the two played 1-1 in Germany.

Nice vs Lorient match will start tomorrow in French Soccer League. Fans of both teams are waiting to enjoy this match. Nice team is at the 5th position in the points table between the two teams. The goalkeeper of Nice team did very well in the previous matches. But Lorient team  How well the players can do in this match is beyond my imagination. If Lorient team can do well, the match can be a draw, otherwise Nice team will win this match.

If Lorient team can do well, the match can be a draw, otherwise Nice team will win this match.

What is clear is that Nice's chances of winning are greater, especially since they will play as hosts so there is no room for them to lose. However, sometimes even though they are the favorites, Nice often doesn't perform at their best and Lorient can take advantage of this to steal points. If it draws, it will certainly be an advantage for Lorient, but if it loses it will be a big loss for Nice in maintaining its current position.

The reason is that Nice must not be careless considering that the competition with the teams below them is only a few points away, so it will be easier to overtake them if they lose points in this match. Lorient is targeting whatever points they need so they can quickly escape the relegation zone and several previous bad results have certainly provided quite a lesson for them.

Real Madrid without doubt is a better team when compared to the Bayern Munich when you consider their general performances since the start of the season which is why they're already favorite team to progress to the final of the UEFA Champions League at the expense of Thomas Tuchel's Bayern Munich. However, I don't think Real Madrid's form this season will make them to underestimate their semi final opponent Bayern because they definitely know that such action will be at their detriment. Madrid is definitely going to put in their best in the two-legged tie and I expect them to come out victorious.
In the other semi final tie between Paris Saint Germaine and Borussia Dortmund, I think the French champions will eliminate their German counterparts and reach the final of the competition. I'll love to see a UCL final between Real Madrid vs Paris Saint Germaine

Lorient is targeting whatever points they need so they can quickly escape the relegation zone and several previous bad results have certainly provided quite a lesson for them.

In fact, recently Nice has not had good results even though Nice are playing at home and therefore, it seems there is no definite guarantee for Nice to win at home in this match. Even though it is true, Nice is only playing against Lorient and Lorient at this moment is also in the relegation zone and with a difference in position between Nice and Lorient in the Ligue 1 standings this moment. So ofcourse, Nice is the favorite team in this match based on the odds currently available but even though Thus, I think it will not be easy for Nice to beat Lorient in this match. Because afterall, in their first meeting this season, in fact Lorient managed to hold Nice to a draw and also, the factor that Lorient still has a chance to get out of the relegation zone, of course means that Lorient will continue to do its best in this match.

I do believe that Mbappe is not an ideal candidate to build a team around, he is the type of player who should be playing at a big club, and Real Madrid is a great idea for him because there he will not be the only one that is put the pressure on.

At PSG so far he has been the player that they built the team around and that is not really acceptable for them anymore, it looks like we are talking about a situation that looks a little different, and team blames him, or at least fans blame him when they do badly, and he is not that type of player, he doesn't really play that well when he is not given that type of chance. I believe that the best way to go for them right now would be making sure that they are not relying on him.

PSG has opportunity for winning Ligue 1 tittle before first leg match against Dortmund in Champion League semifinal round, need three winning matches later will make PSG's points can't catch up by Brest or AS Monaco currently have 10 points remaining with PSG. I think its moment for Luis Henrique focus to domestic league matches awhile until securing the Ligue 1 tittle more early before playing in champion league semifinal match. Upcoming three matches later seems PSG can secure all three points against Lyon, Lorient and Le Havre.

Has more confidence after qualifying to champion league semifinal, I think PSG want to make over Ligue 1 race and focus to get good result in champion league qualify to final and winning the UCL trophy for the first time.

At the moment PSG are of course getting closer to the Ligue 1 title, two consecutive wins in the remaining games will certainly allow them to win the trophy sooner this season before Ligue 1 ends, I think what you said is quite true because maybe before the Dortmund game starts next month of course PSG will be championship in ligue 1, so that later they will no longer be burdened with the league schedule which may be close to the schedule The Champions League, facing Dortmund is certainly an not easy job for PSG, although they were able to eliminate Barcelona in the second leg, of course, it does not guarantee PSG will be able to easily beat Dortmund later.

Actually, with the current 10-point gap between PSG and second place in Ligue 1, of course, the competition no longer occurs in my opinion, because it is impossible for Brest to be close to let alone overtake the points owned by PSG, PSG performance in Ligue 1 we cannot doubt, because their ability to dominate the league so far is different from other teams in Ligue 1 at this time which do not have the ability to be able to thwart PSG for winning the league trophy Ligue 1, the only thing I really want to see from PSG this season is how capable they are of winning the Champions League.

PSG is motivated to get the UCL title this season and I think Dortmund is not a difficult opponent for them. my prediction is that PSG will go to the final but they will lose to Madrid in the final.

This amazing mental toughness lets them win even when down. They had a huge advantage over Munich after beating City. Their experience, composure in chaos, and Champions League dominance are hard to beat. Listen, Munich's serious. Like Madrid, they can always pull something out.

PSG-Borussia Dortmund... Uncertain. On paper, PSG seems apparent. A crazy roster? After Atletico, Dortmund isnt to be underestimated. They'll battle strong as underdogs. Maybe PSG makes the final, but they'll need their A-game the whole time. Then against Madrid? It would be a spectacular match. yet Madrid's recent Champions League history provides them an edge.

[Gaza13]

This week there will be a match that is quite interesting for me between Brest vs Monaco, whether Brest will maintain its position in the standings. I see that both teams are quite strong, if Monaco were to lose at home to Brest, of course their rivals below them would backfire, because LOSC will face Strasbourg, I think it will be easy for Losc to get points there. If Monaco gets a draw against Brestz, of course it will be safe for Monaco, their position will not be shifted.

So other unexpected things could still happen in this season's semifinal match in the Champions League.

PSG had a good performance so far in the Champions League and while we were expecting to see them lose the game in the hard match they had against Barcelona, got they won the game and now PSG should play against Dortmund in the Champions League. However, the performance of PSG has not been bad so far in the French League and they are currently in the first place of the French League as we were expecting to see from them.
I think beating Dortmund can't be harder than Barcelona because considering the current situation of Dortmund they can't be a strong competitor for PSG I'm sure Enrique is trying to have a plan for this match.

Well, things are getting interesting, it is actually a big surprise if Dortmund were to beat PSG, because everything they have done so far in Ligue 1 has been impeccable, but we are going to see if with just Mbappé they can do it Better, personally I would say that because they are not in the UCL it is another level, it is another way of seeing things, I see that PSG increases its level when it is in this competition, and it is something normal, it would always look like that, and If Dortmund with everything they have can play PSG like this, then that can mean many things, but this time Dortmund had no opportunity to wage war against any team like Leverkusen and Bayern in the Bundesliga, so now if the Drtomund plays with all his potential for PSG if he can put them in trouble, that is something that PSG has to prepare very well for.

Barcelona fined by UEFA over racist behaviour from fans during PSG clash

A UEFA statement confirmed the breakdown of punishments, with a €2,000 fine issues for the fireworks and €5,000 for the acts of damage, which included damaged seats. Barca must also contact PSG within 30 days to settle the damage caused by its fans – that could total an extra €7,000 cost.

For racist behaviour, Barcelona must pay €25,000 and have also been hit with a suspended ban on selling tickets for the club's next away match in a UEFA competition – which would likely be on matchday one or two of next season's Champions League group stage. The probationary period relating to the ban's suspension lasts one year until 18 April 2025.
