French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[kro55]

Everything is still very possible, the fact that both PSG and Marseille have the same points on the standings in Ligue 1.
The same points make the competition look more competitive in the race for the title this season, and changes in the standings can change at any time. As for Marseille at this time, they are quite consistent in their seven matches, their performance is quite consistent both in defense and in their attack, in the future it looks like they will not have many problems until the match against PSG.
But different in the champions league. Marseille must be defeated by playing against Tottenham Hotspur with a score of 2-0. as for PSG, everyone will agree that PSG's dominance still looks strong to win the title again this season.

If the equal points occur towards the end of the season then it can be said that the competition in the title race is very competitive, but if this equal point occurs now which is just matchday 7 then it cannot be said to be a competitive competition. After all, even though they currently have the same points but still, we will get the difference in the next few matches or at least until the first half of the season their consistency will be different. It's difficult to maintain consistency to perform well throughout the season and PSG, they have better main and second-tier players and with that, PSG will certainly be able to maintain consistency.

I didn't expect Marseille until week 7 of Ligue 1 to still appear consistent and have the same points as PSG. Of course it will be very interesting
if Marseille can maintain their consistency until the end of the season. But with the quality of players that Marseille have, I doubt Marseille
can play consistently until the end of the season. Let alone until the end of the season to appear consistent, for Marseille to appear consistent
until the middle of the season, I doubt it. Moreover, Marseille has a busy match schedule, just like PSG, Marseille also plays in the Champions League.
But in contrast to PSG who have better quality players and a better depth of squad than Marseille, so PSG are more likely to appear consistent
until the end of the season. Therefore I predict PSG will win the Ligue 1 trophy.

Marseille is playing well right now. In spite of this, it does not mean that they will somehow manage to beat PSG for the title of champions of the league. Taking a close look at the squads of both teams, we will clearly see that PSG has a far superior squad to Marseille when compared to theirs. I just hope that PSG will be able to perform consistently throughout the season. It is because of this fact that they are not going to be able to successfully defend their title if they do not act accordingly.

The main target of PSG this season is winning the Champions League title. With the way things are going right now, it's even harder to say that they're going to be able to defend the league titles successfully let alone win the Champions League.

marseille is a team that I see has great potential to overtake PSG as champions this season, their game has been very good since the season started. currently, they are facing frankfurt in the champions league, the result of this match will be a big thing for marseille, although I am sure marseille's target is not to win the champions league but at least they should be able to last longer in the UCL competition.

PSG is one of the strong team we have in the Ligue 1, they have several keyplayers in the club. Kylian Mbappe pattern of game is quite different from Neymar and Messi in the club. He's stunning in his style of games but there's something about him I dislike which is his refusal to pass ball when given the chance to pass. Like the game they played against Juventus in the champions league, Neymar made an incredible assist to Kylian Mbappe which he converted it to a goal to open the scoring sheet. Mbappe would have record an hattrick in that game but due to his inability to communicate with Neymar and Messi on the pitch, he failed to scored to make it 3 for him. He needs to be humble like Messi and he should try to work with them, I know it's not easy to try to adapt entirely to new pattern.

It is about experience and playing less selfishly. Many players have this default and with time, this attitude will be reduced. We cannot compare Mbappe to Messi or Neymar since their experience are very different.
PSG is not only the strongest team in Ligue 1 but I consider it the only hope for France to lift Champions League these years. Even in the other european leagues, it isn't obvious to see the other teams lifting something unfortunately..

I very much understand what is happening in PSG team, I will not be surprised if the club or the coach doesn't understand what is happening in the team. Let me explain it in simple words.
Every team builds their team around one big player even when their are other good players in the team. That is to say that the other players would be working for the person they built the team around.
Due to Mbappe's recording breaking contract, he is believing that the team should be built around him, even when Neymar and Messi are still in the team and active. That is the genesis of Mbappe's selfishness this season. Until that problem is solved, he will continue to be stingy.

Maybe because he's the youngest, Mbappe will still selfish after his age above them. what Neymar and Messi can do is supply, Always give him the ball until he's fed up and give it back to them. managing the star is difficult which Christophe Galtier has never done yet but if he treats the same with Nice, I believe he will be in trouble, just make him special and spirit if want the best.

PSG's gameplay would have stabilized if Mbappe could have avoided his selfishness. Messi and Neymar's performances are quite consistent. They are playing well. But PSG is falling behind due to Mbappe's small mistakes. He doesn't want to pass the ball to anyone. But if you want to play well as a team, you must have a good relationship with all the players. PSG may not have any problem winning Ligue 1 matches. But PSG's gameplay needs to be more organized if they want to win against the strongest teams in the Champions League. At the same time, Mbappe will definitely need to improve his bonding with the rest of the team.

Both have the same points and now both are at the top of the standings with the same winning record, the competition may look a bit tight between PSG and marseille at this time but I don't think it will last too long, so far PSG have been tested by facing big teams in league and champions league, while Marseille actually only faced teams that were below their level in the league, while in the champions league they had actually lost points in 2 matches, so I really doubt that marseille will be able to provide a strong resistance to PSG until the end of the season.

This is a very important problem for PSG because it has one player who has almost the same characteristics as Ronaldo, Mbappe must change his character to be better and be able to accept all colleagues at PSG for one goal to work as a team well, if Mbappe can't change his bad nature then his career will end like Ronaldo.

Mbappe is Mbappe in all his selfishness !!! Luckily PSG can still win, so he can still laugh. I am worried that the interests of the team for the Ligue 1 and UCL champions will be hampered just because of Mbappe's selfishness. this might be a fatal mistake PSG gave mbappe privileges.

As Messi and Neymar perform consistently early in the season, Mbappe's attitude and offering towards the team is able to escape the spotlight. Against all the teams in Ligue 1, Neymar JR has scored and Messi has provided useful assists constantly. However, Mbappe's tendency to be selfish is causing a great deal of concern right now, and if it continues, both sides will be hurt. Aside from the team, he will suffer personally as well.

I am beginning feel that PSG made a mistake by not letting Mbappe to leave to Real Madrid, I am seeing now that Neymar and Messi combination could bring the glory PSG is needing when properly managed. All they need is a striker to complete the dou and not a young player who will boss over them. Neymar and Messi did it for Barcelona and who completed the trio was Suarez and it was a perfect outing for them.
Mbappe is strongly disuniting the team, the media may try to cover it, the club may try to cover it, but believe me, more is happening behind  closed doors in the team and it will affect the club's overall performance. If when the team scores upto 3 goals, without selfishness it would have been 5 and above.

This is a very important problem for PSG because it has one player who has almost the same characteristics as Ronaldo, Mbappe must change his character to be better and be able to accept all colleagues at PSG for one goal to work as a team well, if Mbappe can't change his bad nature then his career will end like Ronaldo.

What did you type buddy? You did not make sense mean...you you are disrespecting Ronaldo, the king the GOAT. You said Mbappe's career will end like Ronaldo. If Mbappe can have a career like Ronaldo, he will be grateful. Why are you considering Ronaldo as a failure?? Huuuu! Have you forgotten so fast and so so fast? What else do you want Ronaldo to do at his age. Buddy please respect the king.

Clearly, marseille looks like it will be very difficult to maintain their consistency to maintain its position in the standings until the end of the season. Apart from PSG, there are many other clubs that are tough enough for Marseille to face in the next match, one of which is Lens, marseille can be replaced by Lens at any time in the next match. but what caught my attention was the struggle of marseille to stay consistent in ligue 1, until now ligue 1 feels more competitive because some clubs are not far from the points that psg has.

no one can deny the depth and strength of both the main and second-tier players that PSG have are far better than other clubs competing in Ligue 1. We have the same opinion, that PSG is likely to still win Ligue 1 for this season.

Yesterday's home defeat against Eintracht in the Champions League showed just how weak Marseille are. Marseille have shown a good streak of results but it is clear that they will not have the strength to continue at the same level as PSG all season - unexpected results like yesterday will happen in Ligue 1. And even if, due to some miracle, Marseille can share points in face-to-face meetings with PSG, I am sure that by the middle of the season, Marseille will lag behind PSG very much.

Maybe Marseille chose to focus more on Ligue 1, so the result in the Champions League yesterday was not as expected, even though I also bet on Marseille but still the defeat was certainly disappointing. Regarding Marseille in Ligue 1, although currently they have the same points, the difference in the number of goals has proven that PSG is still the best and so far I believe that no team can win the Ligue 1 title from PSG. Maybe as time goes on there will be a new owner with the wealth at his disposal, then that team will at least be a strong contender for the Ligue 1 title but for now there isn't.

Maybe you are right. Marseille's performance is very good in Ligue 1 right now. They are consistently able to play well. They are now second in the points table with equal points with PSG. They really don't want to back down from this position. In Ligue 1 they will play against the powerful Rennes in their next match. And so now for Marseille, it is more important than the Champions League match to get full points against the Rennes team.

In yesterday's match against Frankfurt, Marseille's aim was to draw the match. They played a defensive strategy. But unfortunately, Marseille was unable to draw in this match as they trailed 1-0 in the first half.

[Pulsar77]

On September 18, there is a possibility for the leader to change. Because there are big matches like Lyon - PSG and Marseille - Rennes.



PSG are normally way stronger than any team in the league of course. However things might be different when it comes to this away match against Lyon. Because Lyon got one point from them last season here by 1-1. They were even having a worse season than this then. Now we are watching a better team. They got two losses in a row recently though. But this would only motivate them to get three points against the best team in the league to improve their morale. PSG's focusing mainly on the CL might be a help for Lyon to get one point at worst. I'd rather bet on both teams to score @1.45.

About the other match, this is another match that is likely to end up with a draw. Marseille have been on a winning streak of five matches in the league. They weren't good against Frankfurt last night but it must be because of focusing on the Ligue 1 more. Marseille and Rennes both aren't having issues with scoring goals. I know that their most of their latest head-to-heads ended up without both teams scoring. But I still want to try my luck @1.67.

If the equal points occur towards the end of the season then it can be said that the competition in the title race is very competitive, but if this equal point occurs now which is just matchday 7 then it cannot be said to be a competitive competition. After all, even though they currently have the same points but still, we will get the difference in the next few matches or at least until the first half of the season their consistency will be different. It's difficult to maintain consistency to perform well throughout the season and PSG, they have better main and second-tier players and with that, PSG will certainly be able to maintain consistency.

I think we should not anticipate anything as the season has just started but in my opinion, PSG has a higher chance of winning the league compared to Marseille as I think that they have better squad and it also seems like Lionel Messi is back in form.

If you see the statistics you can see that both the teams have only considered 4 goals in the seven matches they played but PSG has scored a whipping 25 goals in the same amount of matches. This clearly indicates how lethal the Messi-Neymar-Mbappe trio has been in front of the goal. But I have to say that Marseille has been playing really well in the past few games but I don't think that they will be able to hold on to their form.

I was thought Lyon will continue their positive results because at the beginning of this season they had starting the league with promising performance but seems Lyon performance was decline lately because they were failed to win 2 times streak and against PSG obviously this is hard match for Lyon because although last season they can able to get draw result from PSG but head to head statistics showed PSG records is far better than them and i had checked the odds for this match and bookmakers provide decent odds for PSG @1.64 and i am quite sure PSG will win the match

What happened to Marseille yesterday can happen to any team regardless of their form at the moment. Marseille enjoyed more possession of ball in the game but failed to utilize their chances to score goals but I don't think their defeat is as a result of their weaknesses rather I think the luck was not on their side in the game at such they couldn't score a goal. With the performance shown so far by Marseille in Ligue1, I don't think the team is going to drop points even though they face PSG which is their biggest problem in the league right now, they can go all the way to beat PSG when they face each other If  they attack very well and do well in their defense line.

Actually if we look at it now it's not that bad because regardless of how he plays he is still one of the decisive ones in some PSG games now.
The problem for the champions league and the title in Ligue 1 is the result of the cumulative team, we can't blame the individual because I still feel his selfishness can be a natural thing because don't forget who made him selfish at this time.
