French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[Shasha80]

Lyon managed to win big this week.
Their performance was really good in the match against Bordeaux because indeed they like to play alone and play in half the field because they mostly play in the Bordeaux defense
With this 6-1 result Bordeaux are sinking deeper into the relegation zone and they are almost certain to switch castes for now

Winning both half's will be a big odd if you wan to bet.
I didn't see this coming after dumping in the Europa league competition by west Ham.
Great win I can say too much. Toko Ekambi should be my man of the match.

A very important win for Lyon to restore their confidence, as they have just been knocked out of the Europa League. It looks like Bordeaux,
who are in the relegation zone, are the right team to make Lyon rise from adversity, therefore Lyon can score 6 goals against Bordeaux.
Almost all Lyon players played well in that match, but my choice is different from yours, who chose Toko Ekambi as the man of the match.
I prefer Moussa Dembele as man of the match, because Dembele not only scored two goals, but Dembele also provided one assist.
After all, Dembele also scored the opening goal for Lyon and that was very important, which finally allowed Lyon to score the next goal.
Hopefully a big win against Bordeaux can cure the disappointment of Lyon players who failed to make Lyon enter the semifinals of the Europa League,
and Lyon can focus on winning again in the remaining 6 matches, so they can at least be in the top 5.

Inplay prediction PSG 2-1 Marseille

It looks like your prediction has a chance:

Paris Saint-Germain 1 - 1 Marseille

and the most incredible thing is that neymar was the scorer of the goal, after he was criticized because he only got injured and contributed little to PSG, I think he must have reflected and realized that he needs to try harder so he doesn't destroy the team. his reputation

After exit from Champions League now PSG is doing amazing job and specially Neymar and Mbappé duo is having good time, I was expecting some good fight from Marseille but now look like in second half we will have some good business from these two as they are doing in many other matches.

Mostly ball possession is favoring visitors but still PSG attack is having good time, and they are keep going for their chances which is big threat for Marseille now we can expect some good number of goals from them in second half which mean right now over 4.5 is having some good chance for settling for punters after very poor result from few other matches which were having some good odds for overs but fail to provide required results.

PSG are still leading against Marseille by 2-1 now. Marseille have been the much more effective side in the second half but they still can't equalize the score. Neymar and Mbappe scored for PSG by the way and they are just trying to keep this score advantage until the end of the match. I really like Marseille's playing fearlessly against them. Maybe they can manage to get one point somehow as long as they have control of the match. Rennes must be contented with this score too as they lost to Monaco.

Well it's still a bit difficult for Marseille now because PSG are still dominating in every way and now time is running out because there are only 10 minutes left of the game.
this is a crucial time because there could be another goal in these minutes for either PSG or Marseille because this is a minute that players usually lose concentration towards the end of the game

[snipie]

PSG 2 - 1 Marseille, nothing special tho
PSG needs to win another game + either get a draw in another game or see OM dropping 2 points to be declared the winner of Ligue 1 very early. The title might be lifted soon in the next 1-2 rounds

[retreat]

Paris St-Germain is currently playing as we speak and as expected they are already leading in their match but as you know these guys are bad at defending and I don't expect this to change today especially that they are playing the second placed team of the league who certainly want to show the world that they are nopushover!

Inplay prediction PSG 2-1 Marseille

very accurate prediction, marseille really put up a fierce fight against PSG, I even thought marseille would be able to add goals in the second half but apparently not. The match really went hard, during the 90 minutes, PSG collected 6 yellow cards while marseille only 1.

[diderdrogba]

Even though Marseille were more dominant in the second half, PSG still managed to maintain their 2-1 lead until the final whistle. Marseille were dominant maybe but they had only two shots on goal in the whole half at the same time. This is not a healthy dominance in my opinion. You can't do anything against a team like PSG if you perform like this. Actually Marseille were nearly scoring the equalizer but it was cancelled by VAR due to offside also. And I assume that Rennes are happy to see this as they are competing with Marseille for the second spot.

[Sirait]

it really went fierce, not a good day for Messi, his 2 goals were not recognized for offside. btw, I'm just sharing news for those who may not know;

If they manage to win the league then PSG will become the third team to win the league ten times after Marseille and Saint-Etienne.

marseille are a good team who are only 15 points away from PSG, maybe they will try hard again next season.

[DukeNickle]

Marseille are still not able to pull away from the others like PSG have done already. And these two teams had a really fierce game against each other today. PSG might be thankful for playing this game home as it made things easier for them about winning the game by 2-1. But still I don't think that it was a comfortable one for them too. Marseille did their best in this toughest game of the season for them. But it was only enough for losing by one goal here.

Messi is not as good as he was in Barcelona, but I believe he could get better after time, also he doesn't have to score to help the team win, he made quite few passes here and there this season and overall he's not doing that bad, I don't think fans should hate him to the point of whistling when he touches the ball, we might see something different after some changes in the team's coach and strategy.

The PSG team can do well without Leo Messi, even before he came to the new, the team was still doing well in terms of a good play. Leo Messi is struggling to net the ball after doing remarkable passes that leds and contributes to so many goals for PSG. He made an impressive impact in their game that they won 6-1 against Clermont Foot with his outstanding 3 assists. He made crucial passes to Neymar and Mbappe that eventually leds to goals. Even in their game against Marseille, normally I was still expecting PSG to win the game, although William Saliba goal was rule out by VAR in the second half of play time. Rather, PSG are top points clear of the ranked second team in their league.

[Xxmodded]

One step close for PSG locked Ligue 1 trophy after success defeating Marseille 2-1 and have 15 points remaining, next match PSG can lock trophy early if success defeating Anger or with other way waiting match result between Marseille vs Nantes. If Nantes success defeat Marseille actually PSG will got Ligue 1 trophy what ever score result against with Anger. No doubt with PSG reputation on domestic league with healthy financial and many star player arrived last season they can easy how to get Ligue 1 trophy on 33 matchday.

I don't know why they aren't able to create any goal in 2nd half. The formation is good, Lionel is sometimes straight in front of Mbappe. but he can't able to enlarge the win, Maybe Lionel's goal is disallowed before because Mendes's position is offside which makes him mentally down. But so far, the gap point between PSG and Marseille is far away, 25 points are very difficult to beat, PSG is definitely a winner.

[Ratash]

I expected more from the psg marseille game while the first half was good and we've seen three goals the second one was not as expected only one off goal shot from both teams which was surprising since both teams are doing good this season, but it seems that there is no change in the table marseille is still in the second position.

Nearly half an hour of the game I've watched. The French team was very defensive against this opponent. They do not want to concede any goals, but Marseille are unlikely to score. There was never any doubt they would win the league. They don't have any competition at all. I don't think this team is ready to win the champions league with the way they play. There needs to be more competition within the French league! It's always the strongest team that wins.

The victory over Marseille made PSG more comfortable at the top of the standings with 74 points and 15 points ahead of Marseille. With six games are remaining, PSG only needs at least 4 more points to become champions. As a result of this defeat, Marseille is only able to collect a maximum of 77 points, (if it can win all remaining matches), meaning that the number of points Marseille is no longer able to catch PSG points.
In order to compete in the Champions League a next season, PSG must be handled by a coach who has experience in the Champions League, Zidane is the right person to replace Mauricio Pochettino.

Both teams played completely defensively here. The Marseille players did not attack much. Perhaps the goal of both teams was to draw the match. But after leading 2-1 in the first half, PSG played more defensively in the second half. Marseille, on the other hand, possessed the ball but was reluctant to attack. In the 90th minute, they were able to make only one on-target shot. PSG ensured their title win in this match.

I think both teams didn't play defensively, they just barely played. I agree that perhaps the main aim was to play to a draw. PSG do not have much motivation because they are in first place in the standings and can be said to have become the Ligue 1 champions ahead of schedule. And Marseille were playing after the Europa League match when the players should have been given a rest.

It's a minimum win for PSG but it is enough for them to move more closely to the title. Neymar again scored and he is the best scorer among foreigner players in Ligue 1. Mbappe scored 1 goal and prolonged his happy period in the end of this season. When Mbappe joined PSG, he was not a biggest star in Paris but now he is. PSG lives with his goals and assists and I can not imagine how they will play without Mbappe.

Messi again has a very unlucky match with 2 rejected goals.

Next week, if PSG win and Marseille won't win, the title will belong to PSG.

You are right. Mbappe is now an essential player for PSG. Messi is not playing very well with the PSG team. Neymar, on the other hand, is injured for most of the season. And so the PSG team has to rely on Mbappe's score to win the match. If Mbappe leaves the team next season, the situation of the PSG team will get worse.
It is almost certain that PSG will win the title. They are 15 points ahead of Marseille. And it is not possible for Marseille to close this gap. My guess is this gap will widen further.
