French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[ilovealtcoins]

They are in 5th place in the Ligue 1 standings after beating Montpelier with a score of 1-3 at the Mosson Stadium, the good result they got was the impact of the red card received by Valere Germain at the end of the first half so Lille could play more freely. Jonathan David has an important role for Lille in this match. And as you said that Lille looks like they will have a very difficult game in their next schedule, because they will face Marseille who until now have not had a loss in Ligue 1. Moreover, this match will take place at the Velodrome later.

If this match does not end in a draw, this is a very good opportunity to choose bets for 1 and 2, 1 has Odds @2.0 and @3.75 for 2. (Source: Rollbit Sports)

If one was willing to bet on Lille in that match, then they seemed ready to accept defeat given that Marseille's performance so far had been impressive. Marseille collected 14 points from 6 matches, they won 5 and drew only once. That's an important factor why I didn't choose Lille to win, because all the matches will take place at home to Marseille.
Here are the provisional odds for that match, may change again later because this match is still quite long (at least 6 days from now).

It was a one-sided match between Lille and Montpellier. It is at least my opinion that this is the case. There was 76% possession of the ball by Lille during the game. I really don’t know how they even conceded. In the end, Lille won the match by a score of 3-1. It is also important to mention that the red card of Montpelier was also a big help to Lille in their dominance. This was a much easier match than the one Lille has coming up against Marseille and I believe it will be a much more difficult match than this one.

Clearly the things that are happening at PSG are the action of Mbappé's whim, and it seems to me that what the PSG has shown against two greats is a lack of respect and professionalism, Neymar Jr is somehow very motivated, and now the behavior of Mbappé with Messi on the pitch in front of the whole world have not been the right ones, and I think this is a lack of having a technical director who puts the cold points on him, because he really seems like a capricious child who should do what he wants he wants in the team, and he says that if he doesn't improve it, he won't have any allies when he plays, and he must remember that football needs a whole team, not just one player, so things can't go only revolving around Mbappé, as the Sheikh has made it known.

The issue is bad for PSG if their star players can not play well together in a whole team for a general objective. Their strength will be decreased if players have internal conflicts.

From personal view for Mbappe, it is bad too. If he can not control his extremely high ego and continue like this, he will self create bad connections with other players. He will be less focusing on his training and it will be bad for his career. If he continues like this, he will fall further behind Haaland. I am sure that Haaland will be the winner in the direct race between Haaland and Mbappe.

After many years, it is my first time to see a young player at ages 22 - 23 shows too high ego and reacts very rude, arrogantly against his mates like Mbappe. Scoring a few more goals from penalty won't make you a better player. Mbappe should look at Son Heung Min in Tottenham and learn.

Yes, in fact they have played well lately, especially when they managed to score a great goal, the fastest in the league, of course where Messi had a lot to do with it, in the end Mbappé did it, but his attitude is very immature, I I consider that he should play his role as a player, not as a manager of PSG, I also do not agree that the whole team has to revolve around him, because as you say, he is a bit self-centered and that hurts people a lot that they are like that, I actually put them aside, so I feel very bad that he has put players like Neymar Jr on a supposed list that wants them out of the team, so they are attributions that should not be taken.

I really don't know what to think about these teams in the French league, I've seen how many try to keep their level high in order to compete with PSG, but due to PSG's behavior where for me the only weakness is Mbappé for his whims, I think that Marseille could be a good team with all the characteristics to face them, for me the league is already defined with PSG, but I also start thinking about a small detail but that encompasses many things, the closeness of the World Cup QATAR is imminent, and the technical director has already said that his stars have to become familiar with the bench, he does it to take care of them, and this is where teams like Marseille and Lille can take advantage.

Angers were a very easy opponent for Lyon. It was as if the Angers defense wasn't in the game. I have seen very few defensive lines that can remain unresponsive to goals. This was one of them. Angers team is mentally removed from the league. Lacazette's vision was good. Gusto was my favorite football player who was open to improvement in Lyon. A football player with high potential. He is a good fullback and we have a good chance of seeing him in the Premier League in the future.

Lyon have been very impressive in the Ligue 1 this season, last season they finished in 8th position, very far from the top four, i feel they want to correct that this season and try to finish in the top four, and if they continue playing the way they are doing, they can achieve that, they are in fourth position now with 13 points, and they have played only 5 matches, so it is impressive from Lyon.

Angers, just like Ajaccio are already in trouble of relegation very early in the season, Angers have not won any game this season, if they lose a few more, they can start preparing for life in Ligue 2.

Lyon is surely deserved in top four teams of French League and in last season their start was also very good but sadly after half of season they slipped and then fail to recover which was big disappointment for them now again in this season they are doing good job and have 13 points from five games with now they are going to face Lorient in sixth round on 7th September which is going to be good for them in case of win they will at third spot behind PSG and Marseille.

Now in seventh round we are going to have few very exciting matches which will give more clear shape to this league table like Marseille is going to face Lille and then Monaco is going to host Lyon which is also very interesting match as right now Monaco is struggling badly and have second win of this season against Nice in last round surely they are looking for better performance against Lyon.

Before all of that, Lyon is going to play their outstanding game tomorrow, they have played only 5 matches, while other teams except Lorient have played 6 games, so they face Lorient tomorrow away from home, i feel it is going to be another victory for them, if they win that game they will move up to second position, and level on points with Marseille and psg, that is an excellent start to the season.

But like you said, they have two strong tests in the seventh and eight round of games, when they will face Monaco and then psg, how they come out of those two games will say a lot about how strong they are this season, a win against Monaco and a draw at psg will be a good result, but it is going to be difficult to achieve, i will follow those two games closely to see how Lyon fare.

They were consistent, 4 wins in the row show us They are more competitive to coup PSG, but usually what makes me worry is they are only good at the beginning and going to down in the middle session. We know both have the same points, Alexis Sanches is on fire, he found his performance in Marseille was just played 5 times but created 3 goals, is he getting better than was on Inter?

[bering]

I noticed Lorient already conceded 8 goals from 5 matches and on the big 6 they are one of the weakest defensive teams after Lille so for today match Lyon can utilized this weakness especially Lyon trio are on fire today because from total 14 goals Lyon their forward line such as Mateus Martins, Lacazette, and Yoko Ekambi has been scoring 10 goals so this proven Lyon had sharp forward players and today Lyon probably will continue their positive results and get 3 points from this match and odds for Lyon is @1.73

Although lorient have a slightly weak defense but they have started the season quite well this season and are able to be ranked 6th in the standings with a value of 10 points, lorient's defense and attack are the same as conceding 8 goals and creating 8 goals so I think their poor defense can still be offset by opportunities they scored a goal,  lyon is still better than lorient but that doesn't mean lyon will easily win at home to lorient, and maybe the match will be difficult and both teams will only get 1 point each in the match later.

About Alexis Sánchez in my personal view Alexis Sánchez is a great player but when it comes to scoring goals, I can't say Alexis Sánchez is the best. Alexis Sánchez is a typical hard working player so Alexis Sánchez will at least always have an influence for the team, but if as you say from 5 matches and Alexis Sánchez has 3 goals then surely it is a good record. Because if I realized, great players with high salaries sometimes get deadlocked to make quick goals in his new team, but Alexis Sánchez can do that so of course it will be a great achievement for him and the team.

yes I also doubt that Lorient can win against Lyon. other than head to head, Lorient's condition has not been able to reduce Quentin Boisgard and Adil Aouchiche, because both are still injured.
Meanwhile, Igor Silva is still a doubt to appear in this match due to thigh cramps. so my prediction is 0-2 for Lyon win.

Currently marseille is ranked second on the ligue 1 standings, the presence of alexis sanchez adds to the attack power of the igor tudor squad, sanchez is a typical hard worker, his three goals prove that he can be relied on as one of the dangerous attackers that marseille has.

Igor Tudor's squad has just undergone 6 matches this season, this week marseille will host Lillie, but before that match, they will play the UCL tournament match against totenham hotspur.
This week they have a pretty tough job, the Igor Tudor squad are required to perform at their best.

Alexis sanchez is a player who is typical of the opponent's defense disruptor, he has speed and agility when carrying the ball so that it troubles the opponent's defense and finally opens space for other Marseille players, so I don't think it's surprising if the number of goals is not too much compared to other players who play as strikers , as a new player at marseille, alexis sanchez has adapted well and quickly compared to when he was at intermilan, I think alexis sanchez's performance will improve again over time with marseille later.

Overall their performance is good, and they have two clean sheets in five matches which is showing us good work from their defense but one match which was against Lens they were completely outclassed by their attack, and they concede five goals which is surely a problem but after this they have again done good and with having an away win against bottom side with clean sheet they are doing unpredictable performance which is surely a problem as they need some better performance in defense which will give them better results.

Now today they are going to face Lyon which is also having good start of this season with good aggressive performance they need to do tight defense for them and if they are able to steal point then surely it's going to be bonus for them against this Lyon.

The match between Lorient and Lyon has come to an end and the score has ended 3-1 in favor of Lorient.

As far as I am concerned, I really do not know if they deserved to win this match. Due to the fact that Lyon absolutely dominated this match in terms of possession throughout the entire game. At the same time, however, they did not have anything to show for it at the end of the game. In spite of the possession they had, they were not able to make proper use of it. They got caught off guard by the counterattack. In addition, Lorient's attacks have been quite coordinated. Lyon will need to improve their defending.

Is still problem with the field? because this game was postponed on 14th august ago. I just guess Lyon is still unconfident because of that problem. But, so far when we look at the game, Lyon look don't have a problem with that because have 68% ball possession while Lorient seems just wait for a counter-attack. The strategy was successful, maybe they have support from fans and turn off movement Lacazette, look smart and wake up after losing 3 different goal on Lens.

@LittleBitFunny it doesn’t matter how good you play if in the end you can’t score, and that seemed to be the problem with Lyon and I’m sure that their coach will introspect as to what wrong for them despite seeing so much possession. Furthermore I feel that being the underdogs allowed Lorient to escape the pressure, and stun Lyon who I believe were over confident heading into this fixture.

The results of the lorient and lyon matches clearly surprised us all including myself personally, indeed I expected that the match would be difficult for both teams but to be honest I doubt if lorient managed to win the match especially with a score of 3-1, my doubts against lorient are none other than because their unstable performance, while lyon came with an unbeaten record of course being the favorites in that match, but indeed that is football that we can't predict at all, lyon which was previously in 2nd place in the standings was actually destroyed by a team that had inconsistent performance in the league .

[emrecemsan]

This also shows how strongly Lyon performed in the second half but there was no luck. They wasted so many goal opportunities that could have been a silver lining for a comeback. Lacazette still continues to be helpful for his team by 4 goals in 6 matches. However defensive mistakes make things harder for them. Thiago Mendes made a huge mistake which resulted in a goal for Lorient for example. I knew that Lorient were in a good shape and it was going to be a difficult one for Lyon. But this was beyond the expectations.

They have another tough match in three days which is against Monaco. As it is in Monaco's stadium also they can drag down Lyon more by an upset. Monaco waited for many weeks to get their first win against Nice. They defeated Lyon 2-0 here last season and they might get a win again if they play properly. But I won't risk anything by betting on Monaco as their performance is unreliable for now. I'd prefer both teams to score @1.45.

This is a fundamental problem that has always existed with the team. They are difficult to maintain consistency, so they have to decline as the season is about to end. I don't understand why things like this always happen, maybe they are too complacent with what they get. Confidence is a must, but if it's too much then it's not good either, because if that's the case, they will definitely underestimate the opponent.
