French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[dwminer1]

The last match today, Lens vs PSG, promises to be very interesting. It can't be otherwise, since the leader will play the vice-leader. In addition, Lens looks like a team that, as one of the few in the league, can compete with PSG. The hosts are currently 8-0-0 at home. PSG, on the other hand, are yet to lose an away match and their record is 7-1-0. In favor of the hosts is the fact that neither Messi nor Neymar, who was recently punished with a red card, will not play today. This is certainly a huge weakness for PSG, but still the hosts will have to come up with something to stop Mbappe. I think this match will end in a draw.

Monaco are facing brest team at the moment, monaco are currently at the fifth place another result other than the win will put them in danger of losing their position, their opponent is in a tight spot in the relegation zone so this will be a high stake game for both teams but i still see monaco team pull off a win.

[Jody.Drummer]

Monaco vs Brest and previously Brest is the team who hard to beat by Monaco because meetings statistics from both of teams has showed Brest can able to beat Monaco several times but considering Brest had poor performance this season i think Monaco shouldn't have any problem to beat Brest today but last match Monaco has won with hard struggle against another weak team Auxerre even conceded 2 goals at that time i think this should be evaluated because seems Monaco still not reach to their best performance and lost to focus however Monaco odds was @1.49 this is so far the best option to bets and i feel Monaco can continue their winning streak today and won the match so Monaco win is good choice for my bet

I was quite worried about finishing Monaco actually but Golovin made my worries less a bit.
The score has now changed to 1-0 in favor of Monaco and this is a bit of relief for me even though the game still has about 30 minutes left of normal time but with this 1 goal I think Monaco will be more confident.
But on the other hand they also have to reduce unnecessary violations because currently there are many unnecessary violations that occur because their game is a little rough.

The second half for the Monaco vs Brest match has continued and now Monaco is one goal ahead of Brest at home. This is a very good opportunity for Monaco to get a better position in the standings, because if Rennes does not win against Nice, then fourth place will belong to Monaco for a while. So I think Monaco will not waste this opportunity to get full points, especially since the team they are facing at the moment is a team that is in the relegation zone.

[hahay]

Lorient is still 0-1 down against Angers at this moment, I think Lorient can win this match or at least can end with one point for both teams. Because after all, at this moment Lorient is clearly better than Angers who are at the bottom of the current Ligue 1 standings.
But yes, even though Lorient is in a better position in the Ligue 1 standings compared to Angers, in reality Lorient is not the favorite to win this match.

But even so, I'm still confident that Lorient will still get points in this match, even though Lorient can't beat Angers, but because Lorient has a better situation, Lorient should at least be able to end the match in a draw.
Because after all, Lorient's away match record so far has been quite good so I think that if Lorient can't pick up any points in this match it will be a bit of a surprise for me as well because I'm fully confident for Lorient to win or draw.

Monaco are ahead in all aspects of this match. They are doing great in all aspects of ball control, passing, attacking. Hope they play like this in the end and secure victory.

Today's game will perhaps be the hardest game Paris Saint-Germain will ever play in the league. Because first, they are playing the 2nd place in the league, second their closest followers, third it's an away game and fourth on the first day of the year. If players drank too much at the New Year celebration and didn't get enough sleep, their performance in this match could suffer. In their last 2 encounters with Lens, the match ended in a draw. Paris Saint-Germain has a very good winning streak, but if that streak ends in a match, this match can be called the highest probability. Messi didn't play in the last match of the World Cup return, he may not be in this match. I don't know if Mbappe and Neymar will play, if they don't, Lens' chances of getting points in this match will increase. Maybe we should see the squads and make a bet in last minutes.

Lorient are trailing 1-0 in this match despite playing better than the opposition. Not much time to pay the goal. But there is no point in playing well when the match is lost.

Brest has no chance to make the situation become draw. I meant look at the match is almost end and the situation has not yet changed. Monaco was getting full point from the match against brest. Glad to see that brest was not able to make the match become draw. It seems like that brest must be going down even more since it has lose a chance to get the full points. 1-0 for monaco.

Maybe you're right, but it looks like the coach had anticipated it. New Year's celebrations should not have an impact on the performance of PSG players, but it could be that some of them lack discipline and celebrate too much. Tough match? I don't think so, but it could be considering PSG without Messi and Neymar. As a result, Mbappe must be the most influential player in this match even though PSG actually has several other strikers who can help.

I agree that Lens will probably take advantage of PSG's opportunities and weaknesses today, which have lost their two pillars in attack. Messi is rumored to be returning on January 3, while Neymar is set to return after a one-game suspension. This means that Mbappe, Messi and Neymar will return to play together in the match against Angers in the middle of next week.

Lionel Messi absent for PSG match against Lens at tomorrow.
I don't have ideas about PSG service giving to their player participants in World Cup 2022 between Lionel Messi and Mbappe, actually both players last match in final World Cup but few days later Mbappe back to the team and filled in line up for first match PSG against Strasbourg. Have official announcement from PSG about 20 players list preparing against Lens on next match and Lionel Messi still absent and his name not in the list. I don't know what difference between Lionel Messi and Mbappe because they have the same match in World Cup but not returning back to the team until absent two matches for PSG.

According to the news I've read Messi will continue to the Holidays until after the new year, so that might be a strong reason PSG didn't register Messi in the previous game and tomorrow, nor is there an official date set for when Messi will return to PSG. There is no difference here because Messi will be ready for PSG later, but the match against Lens tomorrow I think squad PSG is still capable at least for a draw.

According to several sources that I have read, Messi will return to join the club, it is estimated that this January 2-3. so, that's why Messi will certainly be absent in the match later when PGS visits Lens' cage. strength-wise, it's clear that without some of their cornerstone players it's a boon for the home team. it looks like Franck Haise's troops will certainly play aggressively in this fight.  the reason is, Neymar, Messi, Nuno Mendez, Danilo, are certain to miss strengthening their squad. and for Lens, this is a good opportunity to reduce the gap in points with the leaders of Ligue 1.
Even so, I think that after all Lens should not underestimate the opposing team. since there is still Mbappe, let's see how Mbappe plays without his two partners up front.
In my estimation, this fight is a balanced match and most likely the result will be a draw.

I do not think that not having Lionel Messi is going to be a bit of a problem for them. PSG should be able to win their next match anyway. Even though Lens is on the second position on the table I don’t think Lens will be able to beat PSG if PSG does perform as they should.

And I don’t know how people are saying Lens shouldn’t underestimate their opponent since they are playing against PSG. That actually funny.. lol.
PSG is the favourites and they shouldn’t underestimate Lens in this match. Not the other way around.

Even though Monaco was able to win the match, the resistance shown by Brest made Monaco have to work hard to maintain the advantage they created. If only the team faced by Brest in this match was a weaker team than Monaco then I'm sure they would be able to win the match or at least make the match end in a draw.

Lyon and Clermont Foot have completed 45 first-half minutes and have scored no goals in this match.

Monaco played well from the start. Golovin, one of the team's players, managed to score a goal in the 54th minute. His one-goal lead ultimately held Monaco and ensured victory. Throughout the game Monaco played better and the ball processing was superior.

Agreed, I do not understand how people are saying that PSG needs to be careful, and I also do not understand how people are saying that Lens should not underestimate PSG. I find that absolutely ridiculous. Although both Neymar and Lionel Messi are out of the league, PSG are the most dominant team in the league.

Lens is the one who needs to be careful, and they stand the highest chance of dropping this game. Personally, I do not think PSG is going to lose this match. But obviously, that’s my personal opinion and of course, PSG can lose this match. But that does not mean they are weak compared to Lens coming into this match.

I don't think PSG will let Lens get 3 points from the game later because of course this is PSG's chance to keep the points away from LENS at the top of the standings so that PSG can easily win the league this season, if indeed PSG are without some great players PSG can play well in the match later at least a draw is good enough, at least not losing points or losing 

[Slow death]

Nantes 1 - 0 Auxerre

this is an expected result for me, I didn't see another result in that game, Nantes seemed to me a better team than Auxerre who came into this game with a sequence of 2 defeats, in the last 5 games they had bad results while theirs opponent Nantes came into this game with a sequence of 2 draws, they had a defeat but before that they had a draw and that showed to some extent that they are not an easy team to be defeated

Toulouse 2 - 0 AC Ajaccio

this is a rather surprising result for me, I expected that AC Ajaccio would be able to do better in this game, they came into this game with 2 wins, 1 loss and 1 draw, while their opponent Toulouse was in a much worse condition because they came to this game with a sequence of 4 consecutive defeats, but surprisingly they managed to score 2 goals and won the game. with this victory, Toulouse leaves the sequence of 4 consecutive defeats

Monaco 1 - 0 Brest

Monaco already came into this game as a favorite, they came with 3 wins and only one defeat and in their last game they won then against an opponent who came to this game of mixed results in which there was a defeat, a victory, a draw was of course monaco would win that game. but I didn't expect that they would only be able to score 1 goal

Angers 1 - 2 Lorient

Angers has not been well in the last few games, they have already accumulated a losing streak, but I must say that in this game they were very unlucky, they were already winning the game, they were unlucky with the own goal and with conceding a goal in the 88th minute, they could have won this game, I think the coach's strategy is failing a lot

Lyon 0 - 1 Clermont Foot

before this game started I already saw that this would be the kind of game without a favorite and that anyone would win it would be enough to score only 1 goal and for that reason I didn't bet on this game, I even thought about the under goal but then I thought better and didn't bet on that game

[fzkto]

The most interesting match of today is Lance and PSG. Lance is not bad this season and not far behind PSG. The difference is only 7 points. That is the match between the two strongest clubs in the French league. It is interesting that PSG will not play Neymar and Messi, so many people doubt that PSG will win this game. It seems to me, too, that it could be a draw here.

Yeah a tough game indeed psg will miss some other important players like kimpembe and renato sanchez, psg performance has been somehow poor lately i can see why people will doubt their ability to win lens is the second best team in ligue 1 this season they can even beat psg today its tough to predict the outcome.

The fact that the team is not the two most important factor players makes me suspicious about this match result. On the other hand, I want to watch Mbappe alone, we don't know how it will be. Although there are shortcomings, I do not expect a loss from PSG. Frankly, I don't expect an easy win. Neymar is suspended, I know that, what was Messi's situation?

The absence of Neymar and Messi in the main squad makes this a bit of an interesting thing to watch for me.
PSG appear in their usual formation but Mbappe's current tandem is Soler and Ekitike.
Neymar should be out due to accumulation of cards and Messi may still not be back but they are still pretty strong with this squad, Vitinha is also off the bench in this game even though he played quite well in the previous game.
