French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[herurist]

I'm also thinking that Pochettino won't be able to maintain his existence at this club anymore. After he failed hard in the Champions League, I don't give much chance for him to stay longer. We have always talked about the Zinedine Zidane possibility but it is still not clear. We still don't know to whom they are the closest these days. Maybe they haven't even started negotiations with anyone. But in my opinion, Zidane would be one of the best choices for this team. He did good with Real Madrid before and I think he might do well with PSG also. But maybe he would need some important changes in the lineup too in case he is brought to the manager position.

because it is very likely that he will leave this season and it is clear that PSG's exit in the Champions League is a failure that is quite difficult for club officials to forgive now.
even in the last few days I read that currently PSG are considering Allegri and Conte to replace Poche in the future.
Even though this is still hearsay but I feel it will happen next season

PSG have been the champion of Ligue 1 in this season and now most competitive with 3rd until 5th standing position and looks interested to watch who will lead this position. Between 3rd and 4th position standing as Renner  and Monaco have the same points but different goals created only. Ii think left 5 match will be final for both team lead as 3rd position standing under Marseille beside still have chance with Nice remaining 2 points and Strasbourg left with 3 points. Achieve 3rd position is target with 4 team right now because latest spot chance can qualify to champion league next season.

Monaco are on a winning streak of six games in the league now. This is really a great effort by them and it is helping them a lot in the standings as well. They are one of the biggest favourites for taking the third position at the end of the season now. This position is important because the team to finish there are going to qualify for the Champions League elimination stage. Maybe the group stage is not guaranteed but not impossible at the same time. Monaco and Rennes are the biggest favourites now and I think Monaco might win this race.

I heard that PSG were looking to get Conte in and that’s a risky move by them, because he’s not a coach that can manage the egoistic squad of PSG. Also while Poch didn’t win the champion league I feel if they’re not able to get Zidane then they should retain him, because Mbappe is about to leave and Poch will be in a better position to guide the team in his absence.

Absolutely I agree with you, we all know PSG recently need a new coach who is able to handle the expectations of the club and fans. With PSG recent squad they really has an edge of competing for the UEFA champions league title, but they failed it wasn't expected from anyone, they were beating by realmadrid in the round of 16, it was a big blow to the team and their fans cause it wasn't expected. But with the look of things I think PSG needs a coach who is well respected and a man who has the impact to lead the team to their expected place. And I think that zidane is the right man for the job due to his impact in football.

I think if the possibility for Pochetino to stay might be a bit difficult but if they want Conte I think it will return to compatibility, the selfish squad depends on the coach to deal with it I think, when the coach is firm of course this selfishness will be eroded over time and I am enough I'm sure Conte will handle it well because I feel Conte is also one of the coaches who is quite firm and his words are enough to remove that selfishness

[el kaka22]

Everyone is talking about how PSG squad is good and all, but if you remove Mbappe from it, is it really still looking that good to you? Don't get me wrong they are still fine, but this is the same team that lost to Lille and failed to win the league just a year ago with Mbappe on the roster, you think they would be great without him?

Possibly another win for the league for sure, but they would be much worse compared to other european giants. They lost with this roster to Real Madrid and they will lose Mbappe on top of that. I feel like it is not just about the manager change, their roster is not as great as people think it really is.

Strasbourg - Paris Saint-Germain

PSG game is meaningless since they already wrapped up their title win; While Strasbourg, European football hopefuls have all to play for as they aim to secure a top 4 or top 5 position before the end of the season. Also, Mbappe is gunning for the league highest scorer; promises to be an interesting tie. I am going for a Strasbourg win who needs the points more. 3-2 Strasbourg  win perhaps ?

Apparently the bookmakers are taking these considerations into account and the chances of PSG winning are surprisingly attractive:

3,70 - 3,80 - 1,96

Where else can you find such chances - almost x2 for the undisputed leader of the championship. But I wouldn't risk betting on a simple win for PSG and would rather bet on BTTS at 1.59 and Mbappe to score at 2.08.

You are quite brave but indeed it is a good thing to do
But sadly I won't be as bold as you and still want to do something pretty simple. 1.96 for the size of a team that has never been touched by other teams on the leaderboard, of course this is very worth betting on and indeed it is quite worth it.
But the problem is whether they really want to step on the gas or are they satisfied with the points they now have

I believe that there is no way PSG are winning this match. The odds are proving me right also. PSG are already the champions officially and I don't expect them to perform very impressively in this one. But this is an important match for Strasbourg absolutely. Because they are one of the teams that are trying to qualify for even the Champions League by taking the third position. Their previous match ended by PSG's 4-2 victory. Here, I won't be surprised if Strasbourg even defeat them.

Although now PSG have officially become Ligue 1 champions but I don't think PSG will underestimate Strasbourg, moreover PSG will certainly maintain their winning record so far against Strasbourg, from the existing head to head, PSG have won all the wins from their last 5 matches against Strasbourg. Indeed winning or losing no longer affects PSG but I think there is pride as a big club that PSG must defend against Strasbourg later, other than that I think if mbappe not will waste the rest of the match remaining at this time for add to his goalscoring in the league .

With the trophy in hand, I'm actually still quite skeptical about PSG who will play in full. when they played hard there was definitely something they wanted to achieve and now they have the trophy and what is their motivation after this? I don't see anything else that can be used as motivation now except that Mbappe still wants to be the top scorer there

[VanityWallets2015]

Paris St Germain trailing Strasbourg. Of course that won't affect the league title in any way, but don't think the Paris St Germain supporters are happy about this. The competition is not really something special in their eyes. It would be a stunt for Strasbourg if they can win, but we're only 10 minutes into it so it's still a long way. I don't think PSG is interested in injuries especially at the moment. And neither do the players themselves with a view to the upcoming summer vacation.

When you are already a champion and there are a few matches left until the end of the season, it becomes very difficult to find the motivation to win. While for Strasbourg the victory is very important, as they are fighting for the top 3, to get into the Champions League zone. Although it will be very difficult for them to fight with Monaco and Rennes. I hope that Monaco can finish the season in the top three and play in the Champions League next season.

Would you bet on Strasbourg in this match? If so, then you must be prepared to lose. LOL

Strasbourg have scored 1 goal this time by luck but if you watched the match then you can be sure Strasbourg might not have been able to defend better when PSG players went on the attack. PSG would have been safe even if they lost, but prestige still had to play an important role in this match.

When the match lasted 3 minutes, the goal of Paris Saint Germain which was guarded by Donnarumma was conceded by Kevin Gameiro. If PSG suffer a defeat, then it is not the result they hoped for even though PSG have already confirmed themselves as Ligue 1 champions and the defeat will have no effect. Now Paris Saint-Germain have made the match a draw through Kylian Mbappe's goal in the 23rd minute. The match is still ongoing and PSG's chances of winning are big.

Looks PSG not looking for with the winning score on several match left after already become the champion, actually will play with different player composition and dominance by not regular player. All regular player from Messi, Mbappe and Neymar have chance begin on bench. Usually all team have already with champion will give chance for second player compoaition to get more minutes playing.

Now the first half ended with the score 1-1. PSG managed to equalize to 1-1 through Mbappe's goal which began with a slick collaboration with Neymar. I think it doesn't matter what result PSG will get in this game because they have already won the title this season. PSG will only try to maintain a good record and also good goal statistics for Mbappe as the top scorer this season.

Messi also almost scored in the first half had his free-kick not crossed to the right of goal. Of course I want him to do it in this game but I don't think PSG will win by more than 3 goals in this match.

You're right, Strasbourg won't be able to withstand PSG attack if this team is serious. Draw may be possible because I see PSG still playing a safe game, but this is only the first half, maybe Mbappe will be able another goal later because he is still young and ambitious. I think so the top scorer still has to compete with Martin Terriers and others.
