French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[Phoenix Anka]

They aimed for the Champions League final, but this year didn't go as well as they expected. Nevertheless, I still believe Paris Saint-Germain has a chance to become Champions League champions. Now, the finals will be played over two legs. The winner and the team advancing to the next round will be determined after two matches. Last year, Paris Saint-Germain won the championship by eliminating very tough opponents; they can show a similar performance in the finals this year. Because they are built around players who play the most professionally in the toughest matches.

Paris Saint-Germain still have a chance of becoming champions of this season's Champions League, but it's not yet entirely certain.
Arsenal despite having a highh score is never considered, Manchester City could give satisfaction to the fans and Bayer Monaco no less.

These will be truly difficult encounters and it will certainly not be a downhill road.

Bayern Munich, Arsenal, Barcelona, ​​and Paris Saint-Germain are, in my opinion, the strongest teams in this competition. I think I forgot to mention Manchester City. Paris Saint-Germain could do better in this tournament. To defend their championship title from last year, they need to be much better now. I only criticize them for letting Donnarumma go, perhaps their chances would have been higher if the Italian goalkeeper had stayed, but he's currently playing brilliantly for Manchester City.

The competition in Ligue 1 this season is not as usual, Lens has managed to make the competition more competitive after successfully improving its performance, but this situation is only temporary because sooner or later PSG will return to the top of the standings. Being one point behind Lens is not a big problem for PSG, after all, their performance is still very consistent.
Lens consistency remains questionable, especially considering their class is still below PSG. With so many matches remaining, Lens will face several challenges against teams like Marseille, Lyon, Lille, and even PSG. When that time comes, PSG will once again show their class as the rulers of Ligue 1.

Almost no one doubts that PSG will move back up the table, but as long as Lens are ahead of them, it will remain a motivation for PSG to win all their matches, and not allow Lens to increase the gap. Lens have been a surprise for me, the fact that they are currently leading the table. I thought Marseille should be in their place, but Marseille missed too many opportunities to do so. In matches where they were supposed to win even against weaker opponents, they dropped points. But it is good that teams like Lens exist, so that PSG can feel real competition in Ligue 1 as well, and not only in the Champions League.

In the Champions League, PSG and the other teams you mentioned are still in the running, so be wary of all the other teams because so far, all of them, including PSG, have performed quite well. I also hope that PSG can reach the Champions League final again this season, while also focusing on Ligue 1, as PSG still has to fight here to return to the top of the Ligue 1 standings. Furthermore, I hope all PSG players can return to full fitness without injury for the remainder of the season so that PSG can continue to compete fiercely in every competition they enter.

Actually, I don't think so but their performance is erratic when some players are missing which makes their scoring productivity uncertain because in one match they can score at once as if the injured players have no effect but in another match they really struggle to score which makes the situation look a little complicated.

This is what Enrique still cannot anticipate even though if we look at the conditions even though some of their players are missing but when it comes to quality in Ligue 1 they are still very much at the top and should not be too difficult when facing a level of strength far below them but Enrique still cannot stabilize this.

There are some matches that they definitely shouldn't have messed up but i would say that all in all they can be very satisfied with what they are doing

after all they are far ahead of the other opponents who can only dream of what they are doing and what they did last year above all.

Shortly after the New Year's Eve, there is going to be a Monaco - Lyon game in the league.

How do you see this game going? Monaco are favoured by the way. As they are the home side I'm not surprised but their odds are still high though. It's natural considering they got so many losses recently.

I would even expect the odds to be closer actually. Lyon are generally in trouble when it comes to away games against them. We shouldn't forget Monaco beat PSG home too this season. I wouldn't bet on a side as a result. But BTTS looks really good @1.54.

You're right. You statement made be falshed back on last season when PSG struggled in the group stage after several ugly performances, they started winning their matches towards the end of the group stage. That made them qualify to the round of 16 through playoffs. Are they trying to repeat the same thing this season?

Working to win both UCL and league back to back is not an easy task at all, we are talking about something that is near impossible. I am sure someone must have done it before, not saying it has not been done before, but I think it must be few, because I do not remember a single team that won league and UCL back to back years. Maybe real may have done that during that 3 years in a row period? Not sure even that was the case considering none of those years were treble.

It's a very difficult thing and this team managed to get six cups in a year, only third team to do that, so of course it's going to be hard for them to continue to be great and of course there could be some stuff going wrong along the way as well.

I think that the discussion and the process is really long and it must be up to the team to understand if the path is feasible and it is worth tackling it in this sense or if it is necessary to give up and try to find a more controlled situation, i understand that this is not always the case, but sometimes it can happen to find a team that is competitive in both championships.

You are very correct, PSG will fight for a decent finish at least in the champions league this season if they eventually fail to win the title again as the defending champions.  The Ligue 1 is not even enough distraction to them amd that is why they mostly appear to be giving all. The attention  to the champions league much more than they have been doing to the Ligue 1 which they know they can always find their way around and win even by a few points difference.

Paris Saint-Germain can go a long way and we can already say that they could be satisfied with what they have and think about the new year with a good place in the standings in the championship and in the Champions League, currently they are third and it doesn't seem bad at all, obviously they are one of the best so they can rest easy for now.

I think PSG is still on track to retain both the Ligue 1 and Champions League trophies. Luis Enrique will certainly strive to lead his team to more consistent performances going forward, and sooner or later, I think they will succeed in overtaking Lens at the top of the table. Furthermore, I think PSG will reach the Champions League round of 16 without any major obstacles.

If all key players are back, I think PSG will rediscover their best form, which will certainly make Luis Enrique job easier. By prioritizing the Champions League, PSG will automatically become a dominant force in Ligue 1. This approach has successfully led them to win numerous domestic trophies each season.

PSG is still the team to beat when it comes to the French ligue 1. Lens may be topping the league today but that, is just temporary I don't see them sustaining the momentum. PSG will eventually win the league and they will do that with some points gap, in terms of investment you can't compare the level of investment PSG has been able to make on their team comparing to others.



I can't say that PSG can retain their champions League title but they still have a high chance of winning the champions League because going by their performance in the group stages of the champions League they have been very impressive.so even if they don't gets to win at least I see PSG making it to the semi finals or even the finals of the champions League.

PSG will be fine, Louis Enrique is one of the best coaches I have ever seen, and he is doing an insane job at PSG, so much so that there is a slight possibility they may do treble back to back, and that is never done before if I am not wrong.

No team has won their league, their domestic cup, and UCL title all three back to back before and there is a small chance PSG may actually do that and be first one in history. Cup and league isn't that impossible, league is guaranteed in my mind, cup is a bit harder but still doable, only one that is doubtful is UCL. And honestly even if they only win the league and UCL that is enough, cup is just a win for the "treble" name rights, otherwise it is not really that much important.

Lately, to be honest, PSG's performance hasn't been as good as it used to be, or even last season. Not only are they still runners-up in Ligue 1, but several of their top players have been dealing with long-term injuries, which has resulted in a significant change in the lineup in previous matches.

Not only that, even the players who are usually the top scorers in Ligue 1 haven't been able to score this time, only scoring a handful of goals for PSG. And it's actually players from smaller clubs who are sitting in the top scorer rankings.

Furthermore, hopefully, PSG's main players will return from injury soon so they can strengthen the team optimally again.

The champions league is more of greater concern for them even in next year, but then I can only expect  that they will try to maintain some good form in the championship so they can get back on theri form all at once whenever they get back to squarely facing the championship again.
