French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[rojan]

Lorient vs PSG two team match will start in very short time today in French Soccer League. Looking forward to see the match of these two teams. PSG team is at 1st position in the points table for which I will bet in favor of PSG team in today's match. On the other hand there is no such thing in Lorient team.  There are no good players. Lorient team can't play very well in today's match because the goalkeeper of Lorient team is very weak. In the previous matches, the goalkeeper of Lorient team performed poorly.

It seems unfair to compare Mbappe with Osimhen and Haaland because the competition in League 1 is very different from the competition in Serie A and EPL.

I agree there's a big difference between Ligue 1 to Serie A and Premier League. But why Mbappe's is the highest top scorer in Champions League? where are Haaland and Osimhen? they're not even in top three positions.

If you say PSG is lucky because their opponents are easier than Napoli and Manchester City, it's just an excuse because every teams who can qualify to Champions League is best of the best teams.

I agree with you that all the clubs that qualifies to the champions League are the best among their local league because is not easy to qualify for champions League because of the competition involves so it takes a strong and consistent club to be able to qualify, however in terms of PSG the luck I would say they have is that they have grown so strong that there is no any other club that has the kind of performance they did and so is always certain for them every season of qualifying to champions League because they don't have a serious rival.

However like I already mentioned their is a big difference between French league 1, Italian Series A and premier League because the clubs and there performances are very different and I consider premier League to be one of the toughest league among them because in premier League there are so many competitors that has almost the same performances so knowing the exact club that can lift the trophy is difficult but in terms of French league is always certain for  PSG, which is why is always easy for PSG to qualify for the champions League.

Lorient vs PSG two team match will start in very short time today in French Soccer League. Looking forward to see the match of these two teams. PSG team is at 1st position in the points table for which I will bet in favor of PSG team in today's match. On the other hand there is no such thing in Lorient team.  There are no good players. Lorient team can't play very well in today's match because the goalkeeper of Lorient team is very weak. In the previous matches, the goalkeeper of Lorient team performed poorly.

I'm not sure Lorient will provide a difficult match for PSG, maybe PSG will face difficulties if Luis Enrique decides to rotate players, but still Lorient cannot be underestimated because the last meeting Lorient managed to hold PSG to a draw, but you know today's match could be will ensure the Ligue 1 title for PSG, if PSG wins and Monaco loses or only gets one point against Lille because no team can catch PSG's points, so it could be that Enrique play the full strength of his team because he sees the opportunity for Monaco to lose or draw wide open.

Beating Lille is not an easy thing for Monaco. In the last three meetings, Monaco failed to win, and Lille, who have the opportunity to overtake Brest, will certainly not waste this opportunity, a draw is enough for Lille to be in third place in the standings because they are better in terms of goal difference than Brest, and this match will be quite difficult to predict with the strength of both teams being the same, and my prediction is that it will end in a draw.

[rendravolt]

Paris St Germain have a positive momentum both in the league and in the Champions League. PSG's wins against Barcelona and then against Lyon with different scores reinforced the positive atmosphere in the team. I thought PSG would come back tired from the Champions League and might have a setback against Lyon, but PSG had a comfortable win against Lyon. I don't observe any Champions League fatigue and I think PSG can achieve results in Lorient match by increasing the pressure and tempo in some parts of the game. Lorient will also play looking for wide areas for points or points. I predict that PSG will make good use of these areas and score 3 or more goals again and get a comfortable win. PSG will continue on its way without loss.

This is all because the players still have high enthusiasm to win the title this season and especially that they will soon be holding Ligue One. There are no problems that make the PSG squad feel like they have to lower their strategy and Luis Enrique seems to want consistency among his players regardless of the competition. This is very important so that their concentration is not broken and at the same time it can strengthen team collaboration in the field.

Regarding the match against Lorient later, of course PSG will still be aiming for 3 points even though their schedule is so busy. Even after facing Lorient, in 3 days they will face Le Havre. However, they must immediately start Ligue One this season so they can focus more on the Champions League against Dortmund which will take place on May 2.

[bitcampaign]

I know Real Madrid have a convincing record every time they get to the final, but PSG cannot be underestimated if they get to the final. There is a burning passion from the PSG squad to win its first Champions League title, so I don't think PSG's chances of winning the title are close to 0.

PSG is a strong team with many great players, while Real Madrid is the same. Even though Real Madrid is the favorite to win the title, PSG cannot be underestimated like that. PSG has the possibility to win the title if they qualify for the final, but first I will just focus on how the two teams plan their game in the semi-finals against Dortmund and Bayern Munich.

I'm hoping to watch Real Madrid vs Paris Saint-Germain in the UEFA Champions League final this season, an expectation mut be reached as usual. Paris Saint-Germain have been patient and consistent for their first UEFA Champions League trophy, they keep trying every season but always end up on been eliminated by their rivals. This season, Paris Saint-Germain made it the UCL semifinal and they will face Borrusia Dortmund, not going to be an easy fight but the best team will accumulate three solid points and come out stronger to play the UCL final.

We can see an unprecedented change in PSG's overall performance even after changing coaches. PSG's squad is not very strong this season, if we compare it to the past few seasons. Even so, PSG team is performing well with the help of Luis Enrique. PSG qualified for the Champions League semi-finals after beating Barcelona.

PSG will face Dortmund in the semi-finals. I consider PSG as the favorite against Dortmund. PSG are in better form than Dortmund at the moment. Luis Enrique will make no mistake in this match. He will take all necessary measures to defeat the Dortmund team. PSG vs Real Madrid is now the most likely to qualify for the final.

Even though your optimism in seeing PSG being superior in this match seems very joking because we don't know that both of them are equally strong from a mental perspective, Dortmund has greater experience than PSG, maybe if PSG is able to enter the Champions League Final and that is their first opportunity to play in the Champions League Final, the rest of them always fail, but this is different from Dortmund, which has always been a candidate for several seasons to enter the Champions League quarter-finals and semi-finals, so we can see some of the experiences that Dortmund has while playing in the Champions League, which is certainly better than PSG...

So at least in this match PSG can be more careful with Dortmund because they could give a surprise in this semi-final match, if they don't want to miss out on playing in the final if they are able to win this match...

Marseille vs Nice

Marseille apparently will facing tight schedules in Ligue 1 because within a week they will fight against 2 big teams and the first one is Nice and i know Marseille has successfully to advances to the semifinal matches of Europa League but apparently that result is not make them performing well in Ligue 1 even since last month Marseille still unable to gets the winning results and this makes their chances to playing at European Competitions for next season will be very hard

Even so with Nice because in the beginning of season Nice was performing well but unfortunately they were unable to managed their consistency and now Nice position was out from top 3 but recently Nice has been showing good progress because in the last 4 matches in Ligue 1 Nice only lost once and gets 2 wins even the latest is Nice was able to win with big scores 3-0 from Lorient

For Nice squad i can see all of their main players in the good fitness because the players just like Terem Moffi and Evann Guessand will be available to play and for Marseille they were facing unfavourable conditions because at least 6 players from Marseille will be absense and regarding the outcomes of this match i think considering the recent performance and team conditions from Nice is much better than Marseille then potentially Nice can able to beat Marseille and Nice win has high odds to bet @3.20 or other option just like under 2.5 goals seems good to be considering

I'm hoping to watch Real Madrid vs Paris Saint-Germain in the UEFA Champions League final this season, an expectation mut be reached as usual. Paris Saint-Germain have been patient and consistent for their first UEFA Champions League trophy, they keep trying every season but always end up on been eliminated by their rivals. This season, Paris Saint-Germain made it the UCL semifinal and they will face Borrusia Dortmund, not going to be an easy fight but the best team will accumulate three solid points and come out stronger to play the UCL final.

Personally, I have assumptions and speculation that Paris saint-Germain will play Bayern Munich in the Champions League final. this is just an assumption, it does not determine what is actually true. In fact, it is not certain that PSG will be able to win the semifinal match against Dortmund, as will the other match, namely Bayern vs Madrid. we will find out, after the Champions League semifinals are held. both in the first leg, as well as in the second leg. as you said, the best and luckiest team will collect three points both in the first meeting and in the second meeting until 4 of the 2 teams go to the Champions League Final match.

Talking about Paris Saint-Germain, in fact for me Luis Enrique's squad cannot be said to be strong, solid and one of the elite teams in the Champions League at the moment. however, the fact is that Enrique was able to take it this far until the semifinal stage. For me, it has been an extraordinary achievement for the coach and his team.
On the other hand, PSG's game is slowly starting to develop more frequently in the matches they play. When playing against Barcelona, ​​apart from being lucky because Cancelo was given a red card, Paris Saint-Germain actually played competitively and energetically to look for gaps and try to reveal Barcelona's weaknesses on various sides. which in the end Cancelo made a mistake. and yeah, Paris Saint-Germain has the right to qualify for the semifinals against Dortmund. my estimation, Paris Saint-Germain can do a good job in the semifinal match. But to be sure, we will find out after the battle between these two teams is held.

Lorient team can't play very well in today's match because the goalkeeper of Lorient team is very weak. In the previous matches, the goalkeeper of Lorient team performed poorly.

Not only the goalkeeper, but most of the players from the Lorient team have not been able to perform well throughout this season so I am not surprised to see that Lorient is still in the relegation zone at the moment. And it is also normal for you to choose PSG in your bet because this team is at the top of the standings and will not be able to be beaten by the home team Lorient in the match which will be played soon. So I think that today's match for them is a match that will allow PSG to score more goals.

Lorient are in their bad form and i don't see any victory coming there way, assuming they are it is not against PSG i will say maybe they can the losing era, i don't think Lorient can break through this PSG squad.

[len01]

today there are several matches and I have determined predictions beforehand but maybe explaining too long.
maybe after the match is finished I will give some reasons and I will edit.

what is certain is that in this match PSG should have won 1 win first to be able to inaugurate the League 1 title in this match because the opponent they faced was only a weak opponent like Lorient.
and also a very interesting match will occur in the Monaco vs Lille competition, which currently both want to get the runner up position.
do you think that in today's match Monaco will be able to maintain its position so as not to lose this match?

Lorient team can't play very well in today's match because the goalkeeper of Lorient team is very weak. In the previous matches, the goalkeeper of Lorient team performed poorly.

Lorient is not a difficult opponent for PSG and currently PSG's score is superior and I am sure PSG will end up winning until the match is finished, if we look at the statistics Lorient has never experienced a win even though they are currently playing at their home ground and that doesn't mean they can make things difficult for PSG but the fact is Currently they are two goals behind and maybe there will be another goal scored by PSG, but we are not sure that Lorient will score a goal to reduce the defeat, PSG is already dominating Ligue 1, of course they will not give the lower clubs a chance to win and beat them.

PSG has been determined to win the Ligue 1 title for the umpteenth time and now they will clearly be more focused on the UCL because they have qualified for the UCL semi-finals against Dortmund. Of course Enrique must be able to rotate his players so that no one gets injured, let alone playing for a long time at one time. The match against a bottom team will clearly be detrimental to PSG because they have to be able to win against Dortmund in the first leg so that it will be easier to face them in the second leg. Enrique seems to have fielded several important players against Lorient. I hope he can rotate the other players. .

Lorient are in their bad form and i don't see any victory coming there way, assuming they are it is not against PSG i will say maybe they can the losing era, i don't think Lorient can break through this PSG squad.

From the line-up you mentioned above it seems that if not completely PSG underestimated Lorient at the moment, and we can even say that Enrique fielded almost 70% of their main squad to face the relegation zone team and I think today Enrique is really chasing victory to be able to secure the Ligue 1 championship trophy sooner to make them comfortable playing in the Champions League later,  With the current points, of course, PSG only need two or three more games to ensure the championship is theirs, for Lorient facing PSG is certainly a nightmare that will actually make them even more immersed in the relegation zone this season, because it will be very difficult for Lorient to get a draw let alone win from PSG who currently have great motivation to immediately win the title.

As I write this post, PSG has taken a 2-goal lead over Lorient through Dembele and Mbappe's goals, now the first half match has ended and so far the first half match PSG managed to dominate the game to reach 64% and made 4 attempts with 3 of them shots on target, although it continues to be pressed but it can be seen from the existing statistics Lorient was also able to endanger Donnarumma's goal several times in the match.

There is no points count in the knockout rounds, the points calculation system only applies to the group stages. One of the teams will go to the final in any way, including being determined by a penalty shootout if both teams draw in both away and home legs. PSG is one of the most likely to be in the final, but Dortmund is not a team that should be underestimated based on its track record in the Champions League this season.

Previously, PSG and Dortmund were in the same group in the Champions League this season. PSG won 1x and drew 1x, so we probably know who is the favorite to advance to the final. However, anyone can qualify for the final, but if the opponent is Real Madrid then the title belongs to the king (Real Madrid).

If you say PSG is lucky because their opponents are easier than Napoli and Manchester City, it's just an excuse because every teams who can qualify to Champions League is best of the best teams.

I would say that there are some differences between leagues of course, and Mbappe still have easier time at ligue one then he would have in other leagues, but that also doesn't mean that Mbappe is worse. While Mbappe is definitely better than Kane or any other player you can find, and I feel like he could be the best player in the world right now, or at least high up there, we could also say that Mbappe could score less if he was at City, compared to scoring at PSG.

There isn't any opponents for him at Ligue one, dude is playing for a team that worths more than three times the next club, of course he has easier time there. Like I said, just because he plays at farmers league, doesn't make him bad, he would be great at any league.

Sure both teams are not equals that's why PSG showed them the superiority, ordinarily PSG is not a small team, so for me it was expected, the history of both teams tells it all, at this point psg is sitting at the first position of the French league, thiw leqgue has gone very far that the contenders can no longer say that it is possible for them to contest the league, in essense i will call tonight wining an expected workover for psg, I have said it before now that french league don't look competitive for me, I want to see a serious team tbat deprive PSG that league but unfortunately those well known teams like Monaco and other teams failed to do it, anyways lets see how events plays out, as for the champions league it won't that easy for them because Brusia Dortmund won't be an easy crack.

But I personally hope the Champions League final this season will be a match between PSG v Bayern Munich because if that happens, then ofcourse the final match will be more interesting because PSG and Bayern Munich are not teams that always qualify for the Champions League final like Real Madrid. Although indeed, it will certainly not be easy for Bayern Munich to beat Real Madrid but for some reason, I think Bayern Munich at this moment still has a chance to qualify for the Champions League final, even though in the semifinals that Bayern Munich must play against Real Madrid. Also about PSG, although only playing againts Dortmund in the semifinals is certainly still a difficult match. But yes,because PSG position and situation at this moment is safe at the top of the Ligue 1 standings, then ofcourse PSG must be able to maximize the chances it has in the Champions League also this season.

It's bottom of the table team so you can't expect Lorient team player to perform well and show some handsome performances against one of their top side PSG. Anyway PSG has decent lead in league table and it's confirmed that they will be the winner as second team are far behind them so now PSG should give rest to thier top player like mbappe and Dembele in order to be more fit, relax and focused on upcoming champions league semifinals match against Dortmund which is looking easy but I think in UCL you can't underestimate any team. So coming to the point Instead of rest Enrique still put guys on game which is surprising for me but I think management has better plan for such crutical situation. Hope we will have decent performance for them in coming matches

Mbappe is currently one of the best players in the world playing active football. I'm sure this would be the case even if he played in the Premier League rather than the French league, because as a football player, he is a complete professional who tries to give his best performance in every match, including international matches. Probably the league he will play in will change soon, but when compared to Mbappe and any other player, I think Mbappe will be one step ahead.

Lorient 0 - 1 PSG
Expected outcome with Dembele and Mbappe scoring two goals each. Lorient fate in Ligue 1 doesn't seem to be good.

Marseille 2 - 2 Nice
Nice continue its bad results with a draw although facing 10 players in the entire second half..

Monaco 1 - 0 Lille
Monaco is consolidating its second position with this victory in addition to Brest defeat. Lille is still fourth and they have to move to the third spot to pass directly to Champions League.
