French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[perfect999]

The matches that will determine the champion in France will start at 22:00 on Sunday. Lille-Angers and Brest-Paris SG matches will be played. Champion will be determined according to the winner of these matches. There is a Cup final between Paris SG-Monaco tomorrow at 22:15. If Paris SG does not suffer an injury in this final, they will survive their last game without any losses.

I wonder what the result of Monaco - PSG game in the cup final will be also. If Monaco become victorious at the end, this might demoralize PSG a little before the last week games. And Lille could really benefit from it. As long as Lille don't make a mistake and win, it's over and Lille are the champions. And I hope that will happen.  

Honestly this made it so much more fun to bet on the last game. I am going to bet that both lille and PSG will win their games, making Lille the champions, but also me a bit more richer hopefully. If I were angers I would probably knowingly lose the game, not make it too obvious but try to lose just so I could stick it to PSG, I understand that some people may like PSG but you have to admit when you are champions season in and season out and nobody else ever becomes champions, some people will start to hate you.

Even if I am fan of a team (I am not french, have no teams I follow) that loses championship 10 years in a row, I would rather few teams take turns becoming champions instead of one team becoming champions. It was Lyon back in the day and now it is PSG, it is getting boring, so it would be lovely to see Lille become champions this year.

Lille have to win against Angers in order to claim the Ligue 1 Champion. A slight mistake from them, can result in losing the Cup, PSG are just a point behind Lille, while PSG will be playing against Brest. Lille have only won the Ligue 1 trophy three times (1946, 1954 and the last one was in 2011).
Angers will definitely try to give Lille a tough time, but Lille have to win, if only they want to be crown Champion of the Ligue 1.

Hopefully Lille don't play as badly as they did against Saint-Etienne, which ended in a draw. Lille do have to win against Angers if they want to win
Ligue 1 this season, but if we look at Angers poor performance, Lille should be able to beat Angers easily. Because PSG will also definitely try to win
the match against Brest. But PSG definitely hopes for a miracle to happen, so that Lille plays at least a draw against Angers, so that PSG can become
Ligue 1 champions. Whatever can happen in this last Ligue 1 match, it is very interesting to wait for who will eventually become champions.

Where are you living W Jr.? These are not the fixture schedules in local time, neither in UTC/forum time.  
Matches of the last matchday of the season (38th matchday) will start next Sunday at 21:00 in local time. That is to say at 19:00 in UTC/forum time.
The French Cup final between AS Monaco and PSG will start today at 21:15 in local time and tomorrow at 19:15 in UTC/forum time.

Many people expected Lille to easily win against Angers. However, according to Head 2 Head data, it can be seen that the entire Head 2 Head is controlled by Angers.

And on Head 2 Head in the last 5 matches between them, Lille Wins 3 times while Angers 2 times.

Maybe the decisive match will be a little tough for Lille, but I hope they can win and break the tradition of winning in Ligue 1.

I also like PSG but I've really got bored about that they have been becoming the champions for a very long time. Only Monaco were able to end this in the 16/17 season. Now Lille are very close to do it and I believe that they will succeed in this.

I agree that comparing Lille and Angers head 2 head, indeed the Angers vs Lille match will not be easy for Lille to win. But Lille players have
their own motivation, because Lille do need a win to ensure they become Ligue 1 champions. I'm sure the Lille players will play all out and try
to give their best. So I predict Lille are more likely to win the match. Meanwhile, Angers is safe and will not be relegated even after losing,
so Angers will indeed play carefree against Lille.

Lille's players will try their best to play well, and I believe they will be able to win. They played well enough throughout the season and the match against the Angers is kind of a final match for Lille. If Lille wins, they will get the title. If they lose, PSG will probably win the title. So no mistake can be made in this match. The only goal is to win.

French Cup final is being played tonight and PSG is leading 1 - 0 vs Monaco, still 15 minutes till the half time. Monaco odds jumped to 10
PSG will add another goal imo and Monaco fails to make a real threat for Navas.

And you think it was interesting odds? I'm pretty bad at evaluating high odds unfortunately but PSG is a team stronger than Monaco undoubtedly so being one goal ahead at the end of the first half with a clean sheet, it's almost a victory before the end of the match, even if Monaco scores more goals in its second halves usually. Did you bet on Monaco finally?

I'm not sure, when the favored team has taken the lead in half time and who is willing to bet on the less favored team then he is a gambler who likes a challenge. Lol! In this match it was clear that PSG became the favorite team even though it was the Final match, so when PSG had led 1-0 at half time then of course it was a tough task for Monaco to turn things around, so it was unlikely they would be tempted to bet on Monaco with the odds have increased.
By the way, the match was won by PSG with a final result of 2-0.
Congratulations to Paris SG

The odds were attractive at that time and I might made a bet if I felt that Monaco can do something but as you can see in my text, I already predicted PSG to score another goal and Monaco to do nothing which was accurate
Congrats for PSG the cup and we will see if they could get magically the Ligue 1 title too.

There was no way that PSG would let that happen, it was obvious that even before the match started PSG was the one to win and that ended up being the case. I get that there are times in the world when the underdogs shocked the world, that has happened before and I believe it will happen again as well, but not this game because PSG already lost champions league in a dramatic fashion, and they are losing the league for the first time in a long time, losing the cup on top of that would have been too bad for them and they couldn't handle such a horrible season, at least they have the cup now.

The real deal is the last game, the difference is only 1 points and that is going to be a tough situation, obviously there is nothing PSG can do but to win and wait, after all if Lille wins then there is nothing PSG can do, it will be a crazy Sunday.

i think Ligue 1 title is gone from PSG, Lille made it this year and stayed strong throughout the whole season, i really think they deserve it, it's going to be tough tho against Angers, they're not an easy team, i i'll be cheering for Lille to win.

I wasn't talking about challenge, I was just talking about EV, and I said that even if I am pretty bad at evaluating high odds, I wasn't sure there was high value in this odds at this moment. Are you a bettor Hahay? Which VIP rank are you on Stake? Because if you only bet on favorites you must be a newbie or a half-ruined gambler LOL

Today is the Toulouse - Grenoble game. The winner will play with the 18th Ligue 1 team for promotion. I consider the hosts to be the definite favorite of this match. Toulouse is a very strong team, especially at home, they won 13 games in the league, they drew 4 and only lost 2. Moreover, the guests will play without a few injured players. I bet Toulouse to win.

I bet on Toulouse's wins too. This team is much strong than the opponent. And their players are much more confident to win this match. They played great all season, just to qualify for Ligue 1. Hopefully, they will win today's match and next season we will see them in Ligue 1.

Toulouse is a good team and has better odds indeed. They won 2-0 in their last game vs Grenoble in January but if you take a look on Toulouse recent matches, you will notice they drew against weaker teams (Pau, Dunkerque).

did not followed French2 this season, but seems as a good bet @1.75 Toulouse
Grenoble is a good team, but Toulouse is playing at home, have good scores till this one, and better chances to qualify, especially since it is one match

maybe will add under goals on this one, although quotes are really low on that, but expect a really tough match, a lot is on stake

Bad season for Dijon, they are out of the Ligue 1 and won't be able to play in the League next season. Dijon lost many of their matches this season and was only able to win 3 out of the 37 matches they have played, Dijon probably had a tough time in the Ligue 1. Their last match is against St-Etienne, which will  be tough for them to win. Although, the match is not an important one for Dijon, because winning it won't change their position. I think St-Etienne will win.

Even in previous seasons, Dijon was not a perfect team so it is not surprising, when the pandemic hits the teams that are still in the stages of improving at least they will be badly affected. There is still a lot that needs to be done by Dijon to be able to last longer in Ligue 1, relegation is not the end because maybe it will be the start for Dijon to get many better improvements and hopefully return to Ligue 1 quickly.
