French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[Inwestour]

Although Lille won, their performance is still not stable. Lille scored three goals. However, I would say their attack is not strong enough. Lille players made a total of 7 shots in this match, 4 of which were on target. Ajaccio's defense is so weak that Lille managed to score three goals in this match. Lille will need to play better if they want to qualify for the Champions League.

Nice is a very weak opponent for a team like Marseille. Nice has not won in three matches yet. Only two goals were scored. Nice players will want a draw against Marseille. But Marseille is in very good form now, they will want to get 3 points in this match by any means.

Of the 4 shots on target, scoring three goals is a very good indicator. You do not forget that Lille played after a crushing defeat from PSG, after such matches it is difficult to show a good game, but Lille showed that they are all right. Ligue 1 matches are not always rich in goals, except that these are matches involving PSG. However, Lille manages to be in 4th place now with 10 goals forgiven, it looks like a matrix failure.

PSG will not face any problem to win the Ligue 1 title. Ligue 1 teams are relatively weak. PSG's main target is the Champions League. And for that they have a very strong squad. Despite having plenty of talented and experienced players in the squad, but PSG coach Christophe Galtier is not experienced enough for a platform like the Champions League. Can such a coach lead PSG to the Champions League title? It is very difficult. But it is possible if PSG's players can maintain consistency in performance.

For me it takes more than talent or quality players to win the UEFA Champions league. I might sound strange but I believe it takes both hardwork and a bit of luck. Paris Saint-Germain F.C. have all it takes to win any competition but what they lack is luck.Yes coach Christophe Galtier for now is not a top class coach but he has all it takes to lead PSG to champions league glory, after all Roberto Di Matteo of Chelsea was more inexperienced than him but gave Chelsea the first champions league trophy.

I agree with you that winning the Champions League title requires a lot of luck. Also requires a strong match strategy. In the previous season, Real Madrid displayed a different match strategy in each match. And they became champions. Although I will say they were very lucky. However, there is no shortage of talented and experienced players in PSG's squad. Now, if they are lucky, and if the coach's match strategy is good then we will get a good performance from them in the Champions League.

It is normal to think that everyone aims to give victory to PSG and/or Real Madrid as happened last season, but you also have to take into account Bayern, and other teams that have become much stronger, also Liverpool, Despite the fact that at the beginning of the season some of these teams have started to lose time, it could be said that many are waiting for what may happen, for me it is difficult to predict that Real Madrid will win again, Barcelona is very good armed and they have gotten into tremendous debts for the team to get ahead, besides the other teams are very strong, I think the Germans could take it.

Although Lille won, their performance is still not stable. Lille scored three goals. However, I would say their attack is not strong enough. Lille players made a total of 7 shots in this match, 4 of which were on target. Ajaccio's defense is so weak that Lille managed to score three goals in this match. Lille will need to play better if they want to qualify for the Champions League.

Nice is a very weak opponent for a team like Marseille. Nice has not won in three matches yet. Only two goals were scored. Nice players will want a draw against Marseille. But Marseille is in very good form now, they will want to get 3 points in this match by any means.

Lille played very effectively, I think this win means quite a bit to them after their mental slump due to the big defeat they suffered last weekend against PSG.
the match was tough even though Ajaccio made a lot of dangerous attacks but Lille were able to control the ball position well and managed the game until they finally won the match. With a quick lead in the 17th minute Lille played more comfortably.

Lille did very well, but now I think that PSG is getting very strong, I don't think that right now any team in the French league will be able to compete with them, Neymar and Messi are very connected, apart from Mbappé connecting with Messi, despite the differences that exist in that team, Mbappé knows that he cannot compete with the high level of these two players who are teammates, for me if PSG continues like this they will win the French league much easier, however I do not think they have the same luck in the UCL, I see Bayern, Real Madrid very strong, despite the fact that they have sold players I see them as very stable, they are really candidates for the orejona for me.

Lille have faster recovery and wake up after last weeks defeated by PSG 1-7 and last match success won from Ajaccio 1-3, I think not easy exactly for Lille after destroy by PSG with bigger score. Maybe still have trouble and disappointed result why getting loss with bigger score. But last match Lille wake up and get back winning from Ajaccio and got three points back to fourth standing position place awhile. Bad result again for Ajaccio because until fourth match still can't win and last great achievement when success take 1 points  against with Lens, last three match before always loss and make Ajaccio have in relegation standing position.

[DU18]

Down against Paris Saint Germain, but Lille was able to bounce back with a win when they travel to Ajaccio. The heavy defeat against Paris Saint Germain was because they could not anticipate every attack from Paris Saint Germain, and also at that time Paris Saint Germain was very effective in building attacks, I saw it was the best game from PSG at the beginning of this season.

Lille tried to get up after the humiliating defeat, but indeed facing Ajaccio was actually not a tough job for Lille, the composition of the two teams is indeed much different if we look at the quality of the existing team and I think it is only natural for Lille to easily get 3 points in that match, but the interesting thing in that match is that even though Lille won they only recorded a few shooting opportunities, Lille managed to make 7 attempts with 4 shots on target, while Ajaccio was actually able to create more kicks i.e. around 14 kicks but only 2 on target, the final finishing was not good from Ajaccio forced them to suffer defeat in that match.

They failed to stop Kylian Mbappé in the 5th second of the PSG match. They were demoralized by conceding an early goal and continued the rest of the match by playing bad football. Their team defense was also bad. But their unfortunate defeat was too much for Lille. I was a little disappointed watching the match.

Against Ajaccio, they took a 1-0 lead in the match with Yusuf Yazıcı's fantastic goal in the 17th minute of the match. Other goals were scored by Jonathan Bamba and Tiago Djalo. They are not as strong as the year they became champions. But they are taking firm steps towards becoming a better team compared to last year. I think they will push their luck to go to the European cups this year. Lille fans will also want to forget last year.

[Captain Corporate]

Honestly I do not think that the problem is with Lille alone, PSG built a team that is soooo well designed and they are working on their chemistry issues as well which all combined with the fact that they are finally all healthy and played together for a whole year before, they became a team of unreal talent. Sure it looks like 7 goals is a lot and I am sure if they played again they wouldn't be this bad, but at the end of the day we are talking about PSG here and they are just unfairly good against anyone in that league, probably anyone in the world aside from like maybe 5 clubs. So losing to them is not a big deal.

lille managed to forget their defeat against PSG last time, they won with a good score, this victory lifted them to 4th position in the standings while Ajaccio had to settle for being in 18th place because they kept losing

- in another match, Auxerre managed to beat Strasbourg with a narrow 1-0 score, this added to Strasbourg's bad history (defeats) since this season started

[sana54210]

Strong enough for what? If Lille aims at becoming second in the league they are all set. I guess any club behind PSG is just trying to qualify for the champions league and that's it. I don't expect PSG to run into any serious issues whatsoever.

It might turn out to be a pitfall for PSG if they don't have serious competitors. The way Lille lost the game against PSG doesn't really allow for any hope. We might see a change in the dominance when PSG needs to play all competitions simultaneously.

I agree that second is the best that they can do, but even that doesn't look like it could be possible unless they can get some consistency. I remember the year they became champions they had very good players but at the end of the year they lost a few of their players and that caused a bit of a trouble.

So long story short we are talking about Lille being good for sure, and could be second, but they are not "all set" right now, they need to be more consistent with how they play, look at the year they became champions and look at last year and look at now, that is wildly volatile just like crypto and they can't be like that, it would definitely hurt their chances, they look like a team that could be second or fifth to be fair, anything is possible.

[MAAManda]

We enter week 4 for matches in Ligue 1. PSG still dominate the top of the table with 9 points from their 3 consecutive wins. Below them we see Lens, Marseille, Lille and Auxerre with 7 points each. In the last match PSG also made a very impressive result against Lille (Lille 1 - 7 PSG).

Tomorrow we'll also see a very crucial match between PSG and AS Monaco, I choose not to bet if these two teams compete, it is very difficult to predict. Who do you think will win?

[bekti3]

His game didn't develop at Arsenal, I don't know if his adaptation didn't go well or if he couldn't cope with the coach's scheme but it's a really good option to leave rather than being on the bench all the time.
Pepe is having a hard time at Arsenal and hopefully coming back to Nice he can get himself motivated again and perform as well as 3 years ago

I know Nicholas Pepe will enjoy his stay here at Nice
He had a good season with Unai Emery as coach of Arsenal
But didn't go well when a change in a management came in also couldn't adapt so it means he has to go
He is a strong player and good with the feet and ball I wish h well in his stay

He didn't get a good position so inevitably he had to be in Saka's shadow at Arsenal when Arteta took office.
Right now there is still plenty of time for him to recover because if you look at his current age he is still not too old for that. and maybe here he will get his touch back because of course at least here he can still be a major player to become a subscriber to the starting line up.

After very poor start in first game against Lille now Auxerre is doing much better and have two back to back wins against two seasoned Ligue 1 teams which are going to give them better confidence for rest of season, and they will be able to play much better than current situation today's win against Strasbourg is good as they have early lead and then able to keep this until end of match.

In another match Lille is also fight back after having big defeat against PSG in last week now they are back in business and won by score of 1 - 3 on road against another new promoted side AC Ajaccio after this win now they are back at top four which is good they need to improve quality for having better results in coming matches and having better end of this season.

Monaco isn't performing good while PSG is doing great. Surprises might happen of course like in Bayern game but the difference here is quite obvious regarding the previous games.
Besides, odds are 1.2 for PSG and 12 for Monaco. Not interesting..

Entering week 4 we will soon see the big match, in which PSG will face Monaco. Even though these two are strong teams, but for me it will not
be too difficult to predict if we look at PSG who played amazingly in the previous 3 matches. Especially when PSG beat Lille with a big score,
it already indicates the possibility of PSG will win the Ligue 1 trophy this season with ease. Even though I know it's too early to say so,
but if we look at the previous match which in 3 matches PSG always won big, and it has been very visible this season since Galtier became
the main coach of PSG, for me it is very visible that the cooperation between players is much more solid. So I feel very confident that PSG
this season is too strong for any other team in Ligue 1. Maybe PSG get a serious threat when playing in the Champions League.

So for me PSG will beat Monaco, moreover, Monaco also performed very poorly in the previous match against Lens. What makes me curious is
whether Monaco will have the same fate as Lille who will be beaten by PSG by a big score, because facing Lens at home, Monaco was defeated
by a big score too. Moreover, playing away against PSG who has very high confidence, it makes sense that PSG will beat Monaco with a big score.

[tulusikhlas]

I do not see this match will be difficult for Paris Saint Germain, if they are able to return to the game as before. Yes, in the last match, their cooperation was quite good than usual. It would be great if they were able to maintain it or improve it even more. Win at least 2 goals I think will happen in this match.

[Cryptmuster]

Monaco was surprised when they conceded 4 goals from Lance, after the qualifying games with PSV I thought that Monaco were capable of a better game. And now, probably, the main question in the match with PSG will be: how many goals can PSG score against Monaco today? Few doubt that PSG will win, maybe it makes sense to look at PSG's individual total, or it's better to skip this match. Maybe Monaco will be able to show a good fight in this match.

AS Monaco has had a bad streak in the last two games, after a landslide defeat to PSV 3-2 in the Champions League qualifying play-off event, AS Monaco's performance has worsened in Ligue 1 in the last two matches. A draw with Rennes with a score of 1-1 and defeated by Lens 1-4 is a bad record for AS Monaco. The match against PSG became very difficult for AS Monaco after a series of bad results in the previous match, I think PSG did not have too much trouble to win against AS Monaco. Contrast different with PSG always won on last three match in three games and looks have bigger chance for PSG keep going defeat AS Monaco tonight.

After a great performance against Lille, the only change to Galtier might be to replace the suspended Vitinha with Leandro Peredes or Sanches in midfield, Messi, Neymar and Mappe continuing as a attacking triumvirate in Galtier's preferred 3-4-3 formation. the home team holds a winning streak in the last three matches, surely the galtier squad will be eyeing a win for the fourth time. In addition, the victory that will be obtained by PSG against Monaco is an additional point to strengthen their position at the top of the temporary standings.

on the other hand, monaco is currently trying to bounce back having only collected four points in the last three games. Although difficult, Philippe Clement's squad will certainly try their best to steal points from PSG. However, my estimation with PSG's current performance, they will win the match against Monaco.

[dwminer1]

Theoretically, the PSG-Monaco match is going to be the most interesting today. It cannot be otherwise, because on the pitch we will see the first and third teams of last season. However, looking at the current form of the teams, I have doubts whether the match will be interesting or whether we will see the dominance of the PSG team. In their three matches so far, they have scored as many as 17 goals. Amazing result. Monaco, on the other hand, in the last game lost to Lens after a poor match, conceding 4 goals. I will be really surprised if Monaco will be an equal rival for PSG in this game.

[Z-tight]

while Ajaccio was actually able to create more kicks i.e. around 14 kicks but only 2 on target, the final finishing was not good from Ajaccio forced them to suffer defeat in that match.

Though the league just started, and we are four games in, i think Ajaccio may already be in relegation trouble very early, out of four games they have only one point and are in 18th position, though Reims and Troyes that occupy 19th and 20th positions are yet to play, today they face Lyon and Angers respectively. Ajaccio have to improve fast, or they will be going back to Ligue 2. Good weekend for Lille on the other hand, they get their win after last weeks humilation, this win takes them up to fourth position, and they are looking good in the early stages of the season.

[Slow death]

the funniest thing about it is that we already have the champion of the ligue 1 even if there have only been 4 games, this is even shocking and it can't be called a competition, the other teams are just fighting for a spot in European competitions and even in competitions europeans don't have any chance of winning the champions league, so they are in the european competitions they will be fighting for the europe league, conference league.

Tomorrow we'll also see a very crucial match between PSG and AS Monaco, I choose not to bet if these two teams compete, it is very difficult to predict. Who do you think will win?

take a good look at odds:

PSG = @1.23

AS Monaco FC = @11.00

clearly the bookmakers are considering PSG as the big favorite and they have great reasons for doing so:

1 - PSG haven't lost in their last 3 games, and in their last 3 games PSG scored 17 goals, this is something very scary and they only conceded 3 goals, which clearly shows that PSG's defense is very strong, this was the big one PSG's weakness last season and this season with this new manager, PSG's defense is much better

2 - Monaco in 3 games scored only 4 goals and conceded 6 goals, this shows how their defense is weak which gives a great space for PSG to score at least 2 goals with ease and of course PSG will win the game

3 - Another important factor is that in the last game of these two teams we had:

Monaco 1 - 4 Lens

Monaco suffered a humiliating defeat

PSG 7 - 1 Lille

PSG destroyed Lille and scored 7 goals

it is clear that PSG will win this game, the question as some have already said will be:

how many goals will PSG score?

for this match i would bet on the Asian Handicap Paris Saint-Germain FC (-1.75)

or else in Over 3.5
