French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[irhact]

PSG successfully continued their mission by winning this week's match, Luis Enrique's squad managed to score 4 goals and that shows how ambitious they are in maintaining their position as leaders of the standings. Even so, PSG's points are not safe enough because Monaco also collected 20 points so the temporary advantage is only goal productivity that makes PSG succeed in occupying first place.

PSG won but I was impressed with the way Strasbourg played, they didn't allow the fact that PSG are a bigger and better club to stop them from playing. They followed PSG possession for possession and had as many attempts to try to score as PSG did. The game ended 4 -2 but Strasbourg won my heart in the game. Strasbourg now has 2 loss this season and 2 wins too. They have drawn 4 games and sitting at 7th. PSG are top of the table with 7 goals different and I don't think they'll be leaving that position after the next match day games that'll be played. PSG are on track to win this season title, only Monaco is chasing them but I don't think they can do anytime to stop PSG.

Lens just secured an away win against St-Étienne to take their total points in the league this season to 14 points. It seems it's going to be another impressive season for Lens after they failed to finish in the top four of the league table last season and for their 32-year old manager Will Still, I think he's found the right playing style for the players. Lens I don't think will be a strong contender for the league title but if they can continue with their impressive run, I think they might replicate their feat in the 2022/23 season when they finished as runners-up.

The total performance of lens so far has been a really impressive one that literally can get them a chance on the title race and they are already at the fifth position with 14 point, wining only one games and drew the remaining which i see as them displaying some defensive strength in the league this season so if any team is coming against them, a point to note would be their attack and probably midfield not been strong enough but they have got t good defense so a distraction on their defense and a counter will earn any opponent more goals and victory against them more than they would normally.

Even so, PSG's points are not safe enough because Monaco also collected 20 points so the temporary advantage is only goal productivity that makes PSG succeed in occupying first place.

As I said before that PSG will definitely take advantage of this Monaco draw to achieve a big win against Strasbourg even though they have the same points but the productivity of goals created by PSG is more than Monaco for now PSG is in the top position of the standings but if Monaco makes 1 mistake in the next matches it will widen the gap with PSG and if he wants to continue in the title hunt with PSG he must appear consistent.

Now PSG managed to save 3 full points and get total of 20 points to be able to match Monaco, but PSG excels with more goal scored because several times they were able to win with fairly convincing score.
I think there are many people here who get victory from choosing PSG as the favorite, haha ​​I won with two very good betting options for this match.
Mayulu, Asensio, Barcola and Lee Kang-in became the four players who scored goal for PSG victory today, but I always focus on Bradley Barcola because he is PSG mainstay player at the moment and I think he can be really sharp goal machine.

In the fight for the French League title in my opinion Monaco only gave a little color at the beginning to compete with PSG because in fact they Monaco are not good enough for that and the failure to get 3 points at home yesterday showed they were not ready, while PSG with their ability and also the depth of their squad is quite good and they have a good mentality in the league so the fight for the French League in my opinion will not last too long because Monaco is not balanced they still need to raise a balanced squad and mentality.

PSG is strong enough and they have a great coach tactically and also develop players so the squad that PSG has will not be easily defeated and in my opinion they will win the French League again no one decides them I think so.

After a long time we can see the PSG team at the top of the Ligue 1 points table. Luis Enrique wasn't too worried about the Ligue 1 fixtures. Perhaps he has taken the Champions League matches seriously. And this is why the PSG team lost points in several Ligue 1 matches. The team shared the points in two matches.

Monaco and PSG are now level on points. So if PSG wants to keep the top spot in the table, they must perform well in the upcoming matches. If the team is not able to win consistently then PSG will not be able to hold the top spot in the table for long. The Monaco team is also in pretty good shape right now.

Although this result is quite disappointing but I think Monaco is lucky to get 1 point even though playing with 10 players. After Jordan Teze got a red card Lille tried to score and played aggressively but fortunately Monaco has a solid defense and Lille could only get 1 shot on target. PSG's next match will be against Strasbourg. It will be an easy win for PSG and they will overtake Monaco from the first place. If PSG win both teams will collect 20 points but PSG will be ahead on goal difference.

Rather than losing points completely, it is better to get one point, but the problem is that they should have been able to get full points if a player did not make a mistake. This should be a lesson in evaluating so that in future matches they do not make unnecessary mistakes. Monaco's defense was quite good in the match even though they were missing one player to match their opponents.

PSG managed to get three points in that match so that they managed to become the top of the standings temporarily. Barcola appeared impressive in that match and I saw his ability to play the ball quite well.

I want to rather take a different perspective in this case as i see that PSG conceding two goals from Monaco is an indication that they have got some inconsistencies around their defense which wouldn't be a really good one for them in the champions league beyond their domestic league. Monaco for me had a commendable performance because little was expected of them but interestingly they were able to even beat our expectations by getting two goals out of the six the match produced.

Although they still get 1 point from this match, but in my opinion it is an unsatisfactory result for them. Because in their game they were better and even though in the end they had to play with 10 men, they were still able to play well and did not give Lille the opportunity to take advantage of the lack of players they felt after one of their players had to be sent off from the game. This result made them have to be in 2nd place in the standings following Paris Saint Germain's victory. Although in terms of points they are still the same, Paris Saint Germain is superior in terms of goal productivity.

That's still too soon to say PSG is in the first place after a long time and we should start blaming PSG because of being not in the first place just after 8 games in the French League. The fact about PSG in they lost their superstar player Mbappe and still after losing this player they had a good performance and that's the most important thing for us to know about PSG.
They should thank Enrique for it because he could fill the place of this player by using good strategies.
But still, Monaco got 20 points so far just like PSG and this can show one mistake can make PSG lose their place.

A few failures at the beginning of the season are not yet a reason to say that PSG may have any problems defending their Ligue 1 title. For now, they are ahead of Monaco in goal difference, which is very significant, by the way, since PSG have scored almost twice as many goals as Monaco, but I am sure that even closer to the equator, PSG will be the sole leader, which will only increase its lead. When a team can score 25 goals in 8 rounds, it means they have no problems with attack.

Unfortunately I lost my bet on the Monaco vs Lille match because in that match I favored Monaco to win with odds @1.94 but unfortunately Monaco was only able to get a draw at home. One of Monaco's players received a red card in the second half. I thought this would be a golden opportunity for Lille, but it turned out that Monaco played defensively and in the end, neither club was able to score a goal in this match.

By the way today PSG will face Strasbourg at home because Monaco only got a draw I think PSG will take advantage of this opportunity to equalize points with Monaco who are only 3 points away and shift Monaco's position from the top of the standings, I bet a handicap of -1.5 on PSG's victory.

I feel bad you lost this bet but the match ended up being a draw.  Because if Lille had won this match, Monaco would have been defeated.  However, looking at their record, Lille is better than Monaco.His performance and strength were not that fast, due to which the goal could not be scored.  Anyway, they would have scored goals, but both teams stopped the goals for defense.Monaco should have won this match as many expected them to.  But their players gave little hope to the people and drew the match.

PSG will win this match easily and can keep pace with Monaco.  PSG have this chance because Strasbourg is not in a good enough condition to beat PSG.In this match, the competition can also be seen to be tough as Strasbourg players can win the match by scoring more goals for their defense at any time.  But my bet is with PSG.

[Majestic-milf]

 I didn't have a doubt that PSG would be able to defeat Strasbourg. Heck, the visitors are no match for them and despite being 7th on the log, they have not had an impressive start to the season, having just one win in their last five games and it would have been surprising had Luis Enrique's men lost or being unable to pour goals but where I've got issues with PSG is that once it comes to playing in other competitions outside of their domestic league you'd find them struggling and it then looks like they're local champions that are incapable of doing or being a threat.
 Their next game is to PSV and they welcome the visitors. Let's see if they would prove me wrong or if I'm right

There are 4 matches today and I only choose 2 matches that I think are easier to predict.

• Le Havre vs Lyon (Lyon win)
• Montpellier vs Marseille (Marseille win)

Although Lyon is playing away and has almost the same number of goals conceded as Le Havre, Lyon has the advantage in terms of strength in the attack line which is better than Le Havre. Lyon is currently in the top 8 in the standings, but this team is actually one of the popular teams that has more experience and can beat Le Havre.
Meanwhile, in the Marseille match, I will not doubt anymore after Greenwood joined Marseille, he can make a big change and always make a very big contribution. While Montpellier is the weakest team in league 1 with a very large number of goals conceded.

[Odusko]

Without a doubt PSG is one of the favourites for this match, although to be honest I wouldn't be too confident, because for me the Ligue 1 teams can give many surprises, just the example of Lille in the UCL, so they are something that surprises, so at this point there is more preference to go for PSG because of what they represent, they are eventually the biggest favourites, but Nonaco, Marseille, Lille can make the difference, and the fact is that things are like that, however, as many matches have been seen, sometimes the results can seem strange, because they are results that we did not expect.

PSG successfully continued their mission by winning this week's match, Luis Enrique's squad managed to score 4 goals and that shows how ambitious they are in maintaining their position as leaders of the standings. Even so, PSG's points are not safe enough because Monaco also collected 20 points so the temporary advantage is only goal productivity that makes PSG succeed in occupying first place.

PSG should know better how their stand in the standings is now and that they shouldn’t feel relaxed with what they’ve achieved so far in the league, they need to be at their best performance and try to win as many games as possible. If the my make any mistake in any of their coming matches, they know that Monaco will not take it lightly not to take advantage of that situation to win their game and go on top of the table. Luis Enrique must have calculated all that and won’t make any such silly mistake. PAG have been winning the league title and they will not want to make any mistake also this season. I want the Ligue 1 to also be as competitive as the other top five leagues in Europe but only with teams that have that much potential to give PSG a tough time will make that happen which I feel Monaco should be able to.

In my opinion the right choice, Lyon is currently dominating the match quite well, Lyon is also very good at scoring goals at this time their last 5 matches have managed to score 10 goals and that is good enough to hold them in this bet especially Le Harve is also not good they have lost in a row and in my opinion this match was won by a big score by Lyon.

Likewise with Marseille they are also no less good and currently they are also favored to compete for the title this season, so in my opinion these 2 choices I think will get good benefits, there is no doubt if there is no coincidence.

From seeing this week’s fixtures i just knew that there will be a problem for Monaco because LOSC is not an easy opponent and if they dropped points PSG will definitely take advantage and win their match to move up ahead of Monaco. I predicted it and it happened.
Only thing they can do now is to not give up and maintain their performance and keep winning to keep trailing PSG until when they drop points. They need to keep pressuring PSG because they have same points and only goals seperate them. It won’t be easy but if they want to stand a chance to win the league they should even improve their performance and not drop any further points.

Since before the match started, I was quite sure that PSG had a great chance to beat Strasbourg in the match, because indeed the quality of the players of the two teams is a big difference between the two, PSG managed to beat Strasbourg with a score of 4-2 and made them now able to regain control of the top of the Ligue 1 standings with 20 points, Monaco who are in second place also have 20 points but PSG better goal difference makes them superior to Monaco, PSG have a strong squad and competing in ligue 1 is not a difficult thing for them so far, but not when playing in the UCL so far, to be honest, I am very confident that PSG will again show their dominance in the league this season, but in the UCL of course I don't want to expect much from them although they will only face Eindhoven

Yes, Paris Saint Germain successfully took advantage of the situation when their competitors could not win, so they could return to the top of the standings after Monaco failed to win when facing LOSC. This is a situation that I actually saw very often in previous seasons. Where clubs other than Paris Saint Grmain were at the top of the standings but then that position was retaken by Paris Saint Germain. Now Paris Saint Germain and Monaco's points are the same, but Paris Saint Germain is still better than Monaco in terms of goal productivity. The position is very vulnerable in Ligue 1, especially when other clubs other than Paris Saint Germain are at the top of the standings.

[el kaka22]

Luis Enrique looks like a good coach for PSG and so far they are happy with him. Plus, terminating a contract for a manager isn't something they would have financial trouble with, so they are extending however they want. Looking at this season, we can see they are not doing something special, they are not terrible neither but nothing great to show for, so extending the contract right now is just giving the manager a comfort.

The manager knows, he will either have a job until 2027, or at worst case even if he is ever fired, eh will be getting millions and millions of euros as termination prize, hence they can manage the team without worrying about their own future, which is great for a team, always important for managers to feel ease.
