French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

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

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?

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.

They need to learn about their weakness and with this consistency is also very important for them because they lost badly in last season and downed with this now their start is again good and have 4 wins with first lost against Lorient, but this was terrible now they are going to have another challenge Monaco is also good even having bad season start, but now they are improving performance which is surely going to be good for them with just few hours back they won their first match in UEFA Europa Cup which is good for them and their confidence which is going to be improved their performance in coming matches.

But here Lyon is surely needed more stability as their few quality players are able to give them better results, but they also need to work on consistency which is important for them for their stay at the top of table.

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

The Lorient goalkeeper was decisive in this shot and hand kick in Lorient's last two goals. Lorient is gradually regaining its identity as it was in the Gourcuff era and its Lorient style of play. hats off! Congratulations Lorient! nice surprise

-snip-

@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.

Yes, I agree with you. There is no point in playing beautiful football if you cannot win the game. All that matters is the result at the end of the day. Lyon tried to make a good buildup from the back. But they had been unsuccessful in the final third. In contrast, Lorient did what they had to do in order to win the game. They played fast build-up football. It was often the case that they caught Lyon off guard, as well. Meanwhile, overconfidence is also one of the problems that can affect them from time to time.

Anyway, Lyon will have to improve their performance in the final third. Keeping possession in the final third can be key. And they will also have to work on the finishing.

It is expected of them to have a drop off for sure. I mean PSG is this great because they have that kind of amazing team, whereas when we are talking about the current lineup of Marseille, they are not that great and even though they are better than almost all the other teams, they are not better than PSG.

So, it is expected for them to start losing games here and there when PSG is winning. I know that Lille once managed to win the title against PSG, but that year was outlier and we will not see that becoming more common, I feel like PSG will be easily the best team in the league again by like week 10th and claim the title by week 30 for sure.

It looks like the most competitive game of the week is Monaco - Lyon.

No side is a clear favourite. Monaco's odd is slightly lower than their opponent's. However they aren't a trustworthy team these days. They barely got their second win of the season after a long break. Their productivity is also doubtful. Lyon have made a better start than them but their last game was a big disappointment. This might affect them negatively maybe but they would still be ready for a big challenge. Lacazette's return has made the team stronger in attacking. Honestly both teams to score @1.45 might be the safest option for this game.

I don't think it's only the Monaco vs Lyon match that is very interesting this week, but the match Marseille vs Lille is equally interesting.
The two matches did bring together strong teams in Ligue 1, so it should be an entertaining spectacle. But speaking of the Monaco vs Lyon match,
this is a very interesting match, apart from both teams needing a win. In that game I want to see how Monaco develop, which has started
the season badly.

But in the last two games Monaco have been positive, which Monaco managed to beat Nice in Ligue 1 and managed to beat Red Star in
the group stage of the Europa League. So this is a very good momentum for Monaco to continue the positive result against Lyon.
The problem is that Lyon have performed much better this season than Monaco, but Lyon had a poor result in the previous game against Lorient.
So actually the Monaco vs Lyon match is difficult to predict, therefore I don't bet on the Monaco vs Lyon match. Because both teams have
the same strength, so like you said there is no favorite who will win the match. Maybe a draw could be the best result for both teams,
that's why it's risky to bet on the match Monaco vs Lyon.

their dominance wasn't that great at the start didn't like on the previous session. Many people worry about them, especially after changing the manager. but if PSG changed their focus to the champions league, I believe it wouldn't be a problem for fans. PSG was successful to beat Juventus. They are in a group that I don't think is very competitive which I think not too tight to beat Benfica and Maccabi also. So, all fans hope for the Champions League title for this session to happen with or without Ligue 1 title.

All fans definitely want the Champions League title even though they failed in the domestic league. But their journey will not be easy, now many teams are starting to slowly rise from adversity. They are the favourites, but there are many other favorites that I think are more favorites than Paris Saint Germain.
I think they have to solve their internal problems first if they want to win the Champions League.

Lens vs Troyes that until week 6 Lens had 3rd position on standings league and i think this proven they can managed their performance so far even Lens currently still unbeatable with PSG and Marseille and playing at home against Troyes this could be good test to their consistency because Troyes performance lately were very impressive and unbeatable too in their last 3 matches and i had checked the odds for this match but i haven't decided to made bet yet that Lens is the favourite and their odds is @1.52 and Troyes @6

Lens's performance this season has been pretty consistent. They haven't lost a single one of their 6 matches. And they scored 15 goals in 6 matches. They have very stable performance. On the other hand, the performance of Troyes is not stable. They have won only 2 out of 6 matches.
The important thing is that their defense is very weak. Against a team like Lens, points are not possible unless the defenders perform well. I am willing to bet on Lens to win this match. If they don't make any big mistakes in the match they will win 2-0 today.

Anyway Lens is still the best when compared to Troyes, even last season Lens managed to finish in the top ten. This season, with Lens still unbeaten, it's certainly a good situation for Lens, so this home match will certainly be won by Lens. Also, with a better head to head record, these odds really prove that Lens does have a better chance of winning. If you are unsure which team will win, then I think betting on the total goals would be a good choice, because it is very likely that they will have an open gameplay so the chances of making that goal will be higher.

I believe that the hosts are the clear favorites of today's match Lens vs Troyes. Lens started the season great, they are in the top of the table, have not lost the game yet and are playing really attractive football. Another advantage of Lens is its own stadium, where they have won all the matches so far. I bet on the victory of the hosts.

Since Lens' return to ligue 1, Lens has been in the middle of the table. They managed to finish 7th last season, and now they are starting the League quite well. They have a less difficult opponent now, and they should be able to get 3 points from this match. Although in football anything can happen, but their chances are big enough to beat their opponents.

Undoubtedly, the Lens team is very strong compared to Troyes. Lens has a stronger squad than Troyes. There are plenty of talented players in Lens' squad. On the other hand, squad of Troyes will be slightly behind compared to Lens. However, Troyes's performance in the last 3 matches is very good. They have earned 7 points in the last 3 matches. Troyes managed to score 8 goals in these three matches. So now the party can no longer be called weak.
The match between Lens and Troyes is expected to be very competitive. Many people think that this is Lens' home match, so this match will be one-sided and only Lens players will dominate the match. But I don't think so. The match is highly likely to be a draw.

PSG always targets to win the UCL every season, but they always fail to make it happen. Currently Galtier is expected to be able to realize the dream of the club president to win the Champions League trophy for the first time.
As for Ligue 1, only Marseille have the same points as PSG, but I don't think it will be difficult for SPG to maintain their ranking in Ligue 1.
Our concern is in the champions league. After beating Juventus in the first round I have no doubts that PSG will advance to the next round, but as you said, if PSG want to get two titles this season, it is not impossible for PSG to make it happen but on condition, they must prioritize teamwork.

The first leg defeat was by a single goal difference and in the second half PSG managed to escape a draw. If the can't maintain a clean sheet then eyeing the champions league will be like a lifetime dream. The three forward always wants to outshine themselves. The only way to force them to co-operate as a team is to slash their wages when ever the play selfishly else they might never win the champions league

Two incredible teams recently will collide today lens will face at home troyes they both had great results recently but lens team is on another level this season they are on the third place and still unbeatable, they will play at home which will give them a huge advantage i think they will win easily.

So far the hosts are in pretty good shape after winning 4 wins and 2 draws from 6 matches, a good start to the season has made Lens now in the top 3 while with 14 points, playing at home for sure Lens wants to keep a positive trend unbeaten this season in the league and also trying to snatch the top of the table from PSG, while the troyes who started the season quite badly are now starting to recover and of course they will also try to keep the positive momentum, both teams will definitely be aiming for a win and will definitely make the match will be fierce and difficult for both teams.

[hahay]

Gameweek 7 PSG will play at home against Brest which looks like PSG will win with a big score again, because previously Brest even played at home but lost 7-0 by Montpellier which basically Montpellier is a mediocre team. I can't imagine how PSG will make a big win in this match, because Mbappe and Neymar seem to have improved because in the Champions League yesterday Neymar made a good assist for Mbappe. With PSG's dressing room situation having improved, then of course they will be able to play better and it will be difficult to stop their performance.

Indeed Lens should not find it difficult to beat a team like Troyes in the form they are currently in. The lens is now third in the points table. They are yet to lose any match this season. However, despite Troyes losing points in the first few matches, their performance in the last 3 matches has been quite consistent. This is why the match is likely to be competitive. Lens will get the full 3 points from this match if competitive.
