French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[RealMalatesta]

It's not worthy to compared between Ajaccio vs PSG today because clearly PSG is better than their current opponent but i noticed lately PSG has lost their productivity because they cannot scoring more than 2 goals in the last 4 matches in all competitions and seems the issue about their trio Messi, Neymar and Mbappe has makes three of them has losing passion to working together and today i wish all of players can showed their profesionalsm today and cooperated together because if all of PSG forward line can cooperated i am sure PSG will win with big scores from Ajaccio and for bet options over 2.5 goals seems good and i expect PSG will win with 2 goals margin or more

You're right, from any angle Paris Saint Germain and Ajaccio are on a different level. Paris Saint Germain is the strongest candidate to win the title, while Ajaccio can be said they are in danger of being relegated. Even if it is said that Paris Saint Germain are in a bad phase, they are the favorites to win this game. I have no doubt that they will win today.

I feel like there is no team at PSG level, maybe I am wrong but it does look like that, which means that no team could be competing against PSG but some of them will be lucky enough to beat them. Look at the previous years, PSG won almost every year, aside from just one season, and each of these years they lost to some times, each year they had a few loss, and that usually means even though they are better than everyone, they will have games that are unexpectedly a loss from some lower level team.

We never know which team it will be, sometimes it's close enough teams, sometimes lower level teams, we have no idea who it will be, we just assume "eventually" it will happen.

Ajax vs PSG. We certainly know who is the favourite, but anyway I don't know for sure what the result will be. PSG are without Neymar in this match, but Mbappe and Messi are in the line-up which is complemented by Carlos Seler. Ramos is also not in the line-up and on the substitutes list, so that has earned Mukiele a place at centre-back.

PSG have been in excellent form in their last 11 matches without defeat, 29 goals scored and only conceded 5 goals so far. If PSG win today, then it will be their 10th win of the season.

Sorry, maybe you meant Ajaccio, of course it wasn't Ajax.
PSG won, Messi scored 1 goal and 2 assists for Mbappe. To be honest it was an easy match for PSG, but that's not the case and I just want to say that the collaboration between Messi and Mbappe in this match was great. Without Neymar in fact no problem, PSG appeared without much burden to win 3 points from Ajaccio.

Ajaccio is almost without a chance at home because PSG really managed to dominate the match well. There weren't many mistakes, and of course 0-3 was a satisfying result. Next match, PSG will play Maccabi Haifa for Champions League matchday 5. It is likely that PSG will also win that match easily.

It was a great night for the Mbappe - Messi duo undoubtedly. All of the three goals came thanks to this duo. Mbappe had 2 goals and 1 assist. And it was 1 goal, 2 assists for Messi at the same time. In the absence of Neymar they played their roles amazingly. Ajaccio weren't a tough team to beat for PSG of course and they showed how easily it can be done by a 3-0 result.

PSG have already started to open the gap with the others slowly in the league standings. Lorient are still able to keep up with them for now unlike Marseille's fall on the recent match weeks. Lorient would be able to defeat Troyes I guess and keep a three-point gap with PSG. However there isn't much time left for Lorient v PSG as well. Lorient are a really striking team by a successful run so far but I'm doubtful about their performance against PSG.

[bekti3]

but, PSG in winning strike is hardly a surprise, they should win title with easy
what is a surprise is Lorient, that is usual suspect for relegatiom, but helding position two, 3 points below, and playing great, kudos for them

They dominated from the start but indeed they had to wait until the 78th minute because indeed they could have been safer and in this match Mbappe and Messi were absolutely outstanding, they gave each other assists and scored goals in this match.
Messi's 2 assists and 1 goal and Mbappe's Brace with 1 assist for Messi put them ahead with a striking score.

This is really their day because even though there is no Neymar in their squad list but the two PSG strikers namely Mbappe and Messi really make this match very interesting.
They create goals for each other and make assists which are really fun to watch.
But indeed this victory is certain so we already knew from the start that it would be easy for them because in terms of strength alone they had gone too far.

[Velvet78]

PSG are very comfortable with their league games as usual. Ajaccio team weren't a big threat to them. Maybe they caught Marseille by surprise not much time ago but there is a big difference between them and PSG in strength I mean. We saw it clearly in this easy victory by PSG.

It was lovely to watch Messi and Mbappe working great together. These performances must be helping to solve the alleged problems in the team also. Teamwork is key for PSG's incredible trio. As long as there is no selfishness they can still stay in the competition for the Champions League title as well.

The best thing for psg today is as you said seeing mbappe and messi shinning together it seems that neymar absence was good for mbappe so he can get back his confidence because things will only get harder from now on especially in the champions league thats why psg need alll its players in a great shape, it was a great performance from psg today especially on the second half.

Yes, as expected Paris Saint-Germain continue their win after previously narrow win from Marseille. Ajaccio is not a threat to PSG because judging by what they've get this season, it's bad and not worth the achievements of Paris Saint-Germain
I don't think Ajaccio will last long in Ligue 1 if they don't change their way of playing soon. Even for Ajaccio getting out of the relegation zone looks difficult

I don't see any problem with mbappe at all. it seems like this guy is just creating gimmick. I meant look at what happened with PSG against ajaccio. PSG seems doing very well with the result from the match. That's why PSG didn't wanna try to let mbappe leave from the club.
Mbappe was giving two goals which has been making the club dominating the match in almost full time. He has proven if he doesn't even need move to the somewhere else. I hope that mbappe will be solving its problem with PSG asap.
I don't wanna see he leaves from PSG next transfer season. that's gonna be so bad for PSG and him.

Mbappe is improving his contribution for the club, not only from goals but also in general operation of the club system. He has been contributing more key passes and engaging more in attacking.

Problems with Mbappe if there are, in my opinion, are he missed so many chances. He must sharpen his shot skills and turn his finishes more unpredictable for goalkeepers. He must change himself and must hide his intention to shot at what side of the goal. I consider Mbappe is similar to Rashford as they simply try to shot as most powerful as possible. That does not increase probability to score goals.

I don't wanna see he leaves from PSG next transfer season. that's gonna be so bad for PSG and him.

I don't know what exactly I want to see with Mbappe. Maybe if he can help them to win Champions League, he should be free to leave the club. If he is not happy in the club despite of super high salary he receives, he should leave.

Messi scored only one goal but that is a good combination between Messi and Mbappe. In addition, Messi shown that he can simplify how he scores goals. In that situation, many other players should shot directly to the goalkeeper but Messi is completely different.

There was something special about Messi and Mbappe together. It is an outstanding performance by these two players that makes PSG's victory an easy one. In the absence of Neymar, Mbappe was able to perform at his best with Messi. Fans celebrated both goals as well as the victory.

I would say Mbappe is trying to get himself more organized. He is trying to improve his bonding and relationship with team players and coaches. Messi was not in the squad against Marseille. But Neymar scored from Mbappe's assist. We saw Messi and Mbappe's incredible bonding against Ajaccio. If the trio of Neymar, Messi and Mbappe are able to play well, then PSG can win against any team in the Champions League. However, PSG's midfield has several weaknesses. Coach Galtier needs to address them.

That team work should be executed during the Champions League round and knock out stages in the group, that's all we want to see them play. Kylian Mbappe has be headache some weeks back but he's full relationship with Messi last night on the pitch saw th breaking Ajacio to pieces. Lovely night to get another win to make them six points above Marseille, who have chased them from the start of the season. Henceforth they need team work and game management you have to be able to manage both small players and big players so they will play the football expected in that team

This is literally why English premier league is the most interesting league in the world to watch, no some sort of one particular club dominanting the league maybe more than 5 seasons in a row or over a decade. Is in England league you will see a club from relegation come back from relegation and pick up a trophy Eg, Leicester city.

But other leagues like this French Ligue 1, the German Bundisliga etc, a single club dominates for over a period of time and makes it look a bit bored and which makes fans pay less attention to watch the league because you already know who is gonna lift the trophy.

The first half is now over and as expected they were well ahead in possession but it is interesting to see the number of chances they had and the shots on target they created as indeed they were quite balanced in chances although in this case none of them were on target from Ajaicco.
Mbappe has opened the scoring in this match, actually this is still not a natural thing for PSG if they can only score 1 goal in this match.

The match ended 3-0 and PSG passed here without losing any points.  Mbappe scored 2 goals, Messi scored 1 and the nightmare was over for Ajaccio.  PSG has widened the gap in points and continues to lead the league.  They got 10 wins and 2 draws in 12 games and they are still at the top as the only undefeated team in League 1.

It was really interesting and encouraging to see that Mbappe is now recognizing that he cannot be above the club. The team has a good crop of quality players that has the ability to win the Champions League. But personal interest is beclouding the club's goals. Ajaccio is no match for PSG because they were outplayed in all positions and I never imagined that Coach Christophe Galtier would be able to manage these world-class players considering his humble experience.

The English Premier League is the most prestigious because it has more investors and lucrative endorsements. Even low classed EPL teams have more money than some highly placed clubs in other leagues. This has given them the ability to buy quality players and technical teams. The English Football Association is also more professional which has led to an increase in the quality of football administration. PSG is far richer than most clubs in the French League, which is why they would continue to dominate the league until other teams are better financed.

PSG's gameplay in this match was outstanding. They are performing very carefully in this match. They did not attack much in this match. But every attack by PSG players was very organized and planned. I know Ajaccio is not a strong team. Even so, PSG's match strategy seems good enough to me. The most important thing is that the bond between Mbappe and Messi has become stronger in this match. Mbappe scored two goals and assisted Messi, and Mbappe assisted one of Messi's goals. If the understanding between the players of the team is good, the performance of PSG will improve more.

Marseille vs Lens

2 weeks without wins it proven Marseille in the poor performance period so the match against Lens will be so difficult for them because so far Lens performance has quite impressive but don't mean Marseille chances to win the match is completely closed because there were some of teams who can able to beat Lens before such as Lille and i noticed Lens is good at ball possessions so they might be will attempts to dominated the match and Marseille should be playing patiently and take the chances to scoring goals if Lens lost of focus because Lens defense also seem quite poor to anticipated counter attack strategy and the chances is slim but Marseille probably can win the match

Ajaccio is no threat for the parisians as the visitors spun them 3 nil. Christophe Galtier happy with the results and targeting to do better in UEFEA. PSG had an easy easy against Ajaccio and the parisians looks happy as they watch leo Messi and Kylian Mbappe link up together on the pitch, it was indeed remarkable game to watch. Teamwork is the only key to make PSG a better team presently and their Frontlines is spectacular interms of goals scoring and invading their opponents defense.

I don't see any bad defense for Lens and in fact, Marseille and Lens have both had the same number of concededs as 8 so far. But indeed, Lens is better when playing at home, because so far Lens are the only team to get all their home match wins and even though this is an away match for Lens I personally don't believe Lens will lose. With a record like that, I personally still don't see Marseille getting a better chance of winning because after all, Lens are not an easy team to beat either and a draw in this match could be the end result with only a few goals.

After all, I feel that the PSG squad is already better under Christophe Galtier's coaching, because after Galtier entered as PSG coach, at least Messi's performance has improved and even seems to have regained his best form like in Barcelona. Also, the issues between their forwards especially about Mbappe and Neymar were resolved quickly too by Galtier and thus, I would say that PSG no longer have problems with their coach because under Galtier their squad can play well.

Although indeed, there will always be shortcomings that will certainly be experienced by all teams, because to get perfect results in all competitions is not easy but over time I believe PSG will get a better chance in the Champions League too.

Although there are many rumors that there are many internal tensions between the PSG players, but the gameplay shown by PSG is really quite good, teamwork and chemistry between players have been well formed in every match, Ajaccio is not a formidable opponent for PSG but the core from that match, in my opinion, how do we see if Galtier seems to be able to suppress the egos of the star players to be able to work well together, as can be seen in the scheme for the second goal created by messi with a slick collaboration with mbappe.
