French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[hahay]

French Cup final will be between Nice and Nantes, interesting, although I don't know how Nantes was able to made it this far! It is curious also to see them in front of Lille in the table when they survived relegation in the previous season.
This round PSG will face Nice with a very unbalanced odds imo. PSG one is correct tho @1.8 but Nice @4.1...they aren't that bad although last month wasn't their best but I believe they could be competitive for PSG.

But last season Nice managed to finish in the top 10 and now Nice are in the top 3 in the standings that is a great improvement, the same as Nantes who managed to get better this season after being free from the threat of relegation. About the odds for Nice against PSG, indeed it looks very unbalanced because even, in the first match of the season, Nice was actually able to hold PSG to a goalless draw at that time. Now that Nice are in 3rd position and playing at home, it looks like Nice will take advantage by winning the match or maybe it will end in a draw again. If there is such a possibility, then I think the odds will be very attractive to bet on Nice with the AH option.

There is only one match today which is Lorient - Lyon. It is the opening match for this week and Lyon are the favourite club to win this. However their last head-to-head in Lyon's home stadium ended in a draw by 1-1. When I take this into account, I think that Lorient might make some difficulties for Lyon here again. And Lyon got a disappointing result in their last match in the Ligue 1. They lost against Lille home by 0-1. They need to boost their morale now by defeating Lorient but this might not be that easy.

Hmm, interesting, personally I would say it should even be much wider the gap. But I guess we are all aware, just like the bookies are, that PSG's depth and skill on paper means nothing next to their form.

Nice 4/1 feels like not big enough a reward though as a draw is also possible I'd only take a DNB odds at hopefully 1.8x?

FC Lorient is very ambitious to be able to win this match in order to stay away from the relegation zone, while Lyon are not in a good form they often drop points in the last few matches, I think this match will be very balanced and it is very likely that Lorient will be able to take full points in this match, because they will play at home.

Lyon must not lose points, they have to score points from this match in order to finish this season in the top positions. Their opponent is not very strong, I think they will win this match. They need to regain the points they lost last week.
Lorient has to move away from the relegation zone, if they play an offensive game, they can make a mistake and concede an early goal. They're probably trying to make a slower match

currently olympique Lyon have not found their best game as they stumble in 10th place in the League one standings where last week they had to admit Lille's advantage and this time they will face a not too tough opponent, namely Lorient who are currently struggling.to get out of the relegation zone.but olympique Lyon must not underestimate the strength of Lorient because they will act as hosts which often makes it difficult for teams that travel to Lorient's headquarters to the Stade do Moustoir stadium.

Lyon failed to get full points in the last two weeks I think this match will be put to good use by Lyon, considering the opponents they will face this week Lorient are not in good form and are at the bottom of the table. I bet big for Lyon's victory in this match, I'm sure they will win to continue to improve the standings and return to the top row.

In my opinion, Lyon won't lose points today. I know that their previous game ended in a draw but this time I expect Lyon to make a bigger effort to win. And they would really make use of a win now as their performance recently hasn't been satisfying at all. Their losing to Lille in a home game made things even worse for themselves. They need a morale booster right now and it must be this game. Lorient are a way below team for Lyon and this shouldn't be an obstacle for Lyon now. I think that they will win by one goal.

yes, I think this is an opportunity for lyon to get maximum results considering they are in a bad form. their last match got a defeat at home to lille, even though this was playing at home to opponents I think lyon will get a good result at least get a draw.
but by looking at the opponent for this match i'm sure lyon will win because the opponent on paper lyon won. and opponents this time are under lyon in the standings this time.

Looking in the table, it seems that Lyon is the favorite of today's meeting. Guests still count in the fight for promotion to the cups. The hosts' goal for this season is to stay in Ligue 1. The situation at the bottom of the table is very even, so every point is worth its weight in gold. I also see chances for the hosts in the fact that Lyon is one of the weakest teams in away matches. It seems to me that we will see an even game ended with a draw today.

Lyon is still in position to fight for Europe next season, although it is getting harder, since their form is problematic lately
they have Europa league match, but I highly doubt they can reach far in the competition, looking at Barca and Sevilla

Nice is playing PSG tomorrow, and that could be a good match, Nice is trying to stay within CL positions, PSG already took title

[bering]

Although lose against Lille last weekend but basically Lyon performance quite impressive lately because during this year they can able to defeat Marseille and draw against PSG and today against Lorient i think they will get full points from it and i had decide to putting my bet on them

[Alisha-k]

This going to be a tough match between Lorient and Lyon. These two have been struggling for supremacy and there is another opportunity as to who will have the upper hand. Drawing in their last meeting (1-1), there is yet to be a winner.
 Lorient where able to win their last game by a lone goal against stade Brest on Sunday last week but have been inconsistent in their last games in terms of winning.
 Lyon, though losing to lille are also hoping that they will emerge the winner of the game tonight. For me, it is a ov. 1.5

Bookmakers have a different opinion on this matter and predict a relatively easy victory for Lyon:

4.6 - 3.75 - 1.81

I think that will happen. Lorient of course needs points to break away from the four teams (all with 22 points) chasing him, but Lyon is not an opponent where he can score points. By the way, the bet on total over in this game (odds 1.91) looks very attractive.

Behind 8 points from latest standing position available to champion league next season I think Lyon will try how to get top performance against Lorient tonight although as home team have motivation keep out from relegation team because left 2 points only. I think have good predicting Lyon as the winner on this match although need to prepare for europe league on middle week against with Porto. I think will have several days take rest before another important match for Lyon and should success get three points if want pass as play off team for champion league next season.

The Odds might look good and valuable for Lyon to win, but It won't be an easy game in my opinion. Lyon have not been specifically consistent and most of their games just seem like someone betting on a coinflip with 50/50 chances regardless who their opponent tends to be, they play good football and get result against the highly placed teams, and the following week they struggle against the bottom dwellers. I'd as well expect a close game here, and I have a betslip with Lyon to win. Hopefully, they will.

Lyon is certainly the favorite of this match. I don't think that their opponents have any chances against them. I think it's more of a matter that if they win, which day will surely do in my opinion, they will jump up to the sixth spot on the table. So they will be really determined to win this match. And they should not have too much of a problem beating a team which is at the 16th place of the table.

Lyon is surely favorite for this match, but they are unpredictable team and lost few points against weak sides which is going to hurt them for their chance of qualifying for next year's place in Europe because currently we are some very entertaining competition between few teams those are doing some better in last few matches and trying to achieve some better place.

Today Lyon is favorite but with current form both teams having equal chance so most chances this match can go in draw as well because Lorient is not bad at all they already beat Brest in away match and Lyon lost against Lille at home which is also having some impact on this match win or draw surely going to give some good reward to Lorient which is struggling and need some good result for staying in this Ligue 1 for next season as well.

Even though Lyon has been bad, I would give them benefit of the doubt in this game. I mean we are talking about Lyon here, sure Lille beat them but they are last year's champions and 8th in the league. Whereas Lorient is 16th in the league and that's why I would expect Lyon to beat Lorient. Mind you, I do not mean like "easily", Lyon earned as many points in the last 5 games as Lorient did, 7 points in 5 games for both teams.

So, do not imagine that I am saying Lyon is "much" better, all I am saying is that there is a clear different and that's all. Assuming with that clear difference, I would expect them to actually win this game one way or another.

[Ratash]

Lyon team managed to win today against lorient it was expected considering the opponent situation, faivre scored his first goals with lyon today, but despite the large score lorient team played good they shouldn't be ashamed but they are still close to the relegation zone its not looking good for them.
