French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[Fesatmas]

Match between Monaco and psg, psg has been confirmed as the most superior club in the France Major league but we always see this team cutting off the expectation of their fans, PSG is placed very high in a manner that even they are to loss it shouldn't be to amateur clubs but this is what we see in the case of PSG, this match between this two rivals is going to be tough but the better side is going to take the other of the day.

Paris Saint Germain will always be the favorite in their game against any team, but that doesn't mean they can actually win when they are the favourite. Monaco is a team they cannot underestimate, because Monaco itself, in my opinion, can be a very surprising team in Ligue 1 this season. They are in 4th place with a difference of 10 points from Paris Saint German. Monaco will be at an advantage as they will be playing a home match in their meeting with Paris Saint Germain.

Last season and this season it's the same, I mean PSG are the favorites to win the Ligue 1 title.
Just like La Liga, the leader of the Ligue 1 standings (PSG) has created a gap of 8 points from their current competitors. PSG are 8 points clear after winning against Toulouse following a defeat to Marseille and a draw to Lens in their respective matches.

Marseille and Lens still need to fight hard to compete with PSG this season, but I don't think they have good chance for the title. Meanwhile, Monaco, who will face PSG in the next two days, will be worried about suffering heavy defeat to the visiting team. I don't think PSG's strength is so weak without Mbappe, but PSG will not do anything 100% in that match because they will also be preparing against Bayern Munich in the Champions League.

Coupe de France

The match between Lyon and Lille in the Coupe de France match turned out to be very competitive. The match is now tied at 2-2. Lyon scored two goals in 21 minutes of the first half and Lyon led 2-1 at the end of the first half. But Edon Zhegrova scored the second goal to level the match at 2-2. It is difficult to say which team will win now. The performance of the players of both teams is very good in this match.

But I'm looking forward to watching the PSG vs Marseille match. The match is going to be held shortly. However, Marseille's Bailly, and Leonardo Balerdi will be missing in this match. On the other hand, Mbappe and Nordi Mukiele will be absent from the PSG team. PSG is undoubtedly the strongest team. Even so, its chances of victory in Marseille are not low. This group is now quite strong.

Less than 10 minutes left in normal time and both teams looked to be looking to score and end the game quicker. Lille took charge of the game at this point and they were trying hard to dismantle the defense from Lyon. With a match like that it's difficult to predict who will be able to create additions in the remaining remaining time, Lyon or Lille.

Even though Lille is playing away, but Lille has better ball possession and of course, with Lille who is able to control the rhythm of the match, then Lille can score an equalizer and maybe Lille will also win this match. Also, if I consider their head to head record then I get a note, that they often end the match with a draw result and their head to head record is still happening at this moment.
But because this is a knockout round, then of course one of them will win and has the right to advance to the next round.

[execijutiere]

This week it's Monaco vs PSG. Again, an important match that will affect the course of the league. We will watch two teams in form and not losing easily. Monaco is the top scorer after PSG in the league. We can expect a controlled game from both teams as well as a lot of goals when the game suddenly breaks down. It is difficult for me to predict what will happen in the match where both teams have a high probability of winning.

[herurist]

In the end it will be the same as them having to be knocked out of the Champions League again it seems.
PSG's condition without a player of Mbappe's caliber when facing Bayern was clearly a disaster. Even though in this case they will still be very strong and cannot be underestimated, but with the current conditions it is clear that they will be eliminated no matter how they carry out the scheme.

Haha, I still remember the words "Champions League Champion's DNA" which was given to AC Milan when making fun of Juventus fans, because Milan often won the UCL. Maybe, for a team that doesn't have championship DNA, no matter how good the team they have, they won't win. PSG had several chances but they failed. We'll see, if this time it will still be the same result as you said, if PSG will lose, or they are going to Final but not win the UCL, maybe PSG doesnt have UCL Champions DNA 
They are only The domestic league king

I don't dare say that, but indeed the current conditions require them to be content with returning with trophies in the domestic competition lol.
Indeed, in this case the chance is still there, but looking at it from an experience point of view and losing vital players is a problem. But when you look at Bayern last season, who lost to Villarreal, it is clear that something can still happen in this match, it's just that it seems difficult for PSG, especially with the experience of the coach, which in my opinion is still lacking for this stage.

[bitgolden]

They will face the mighty PSG in the next match. I am waiting for this match. Marseille's defense is strong. It is no surprise that they can resist the PSG team. I think in this match, the chance of winning is almost the same for both teams.

yes, Marseille does have a pretty good defense. but with the 1-3 defeat to Nice, it seems that it means nothing now. Marseille lost in a strategic battle with Nice who played more effectively.
before facing PSG, maybe Marseille should evaluate their game against Nice. Dominant game and also has a lot of opportunities. but not able to make a lot of goals. of course, there is something wrong with Marseille's current front line.

Marseille lost against Nice due to some tactical errors. Marseille's overall performance was not bad. They played very well. But they focused more on attack leaving the defense unguarded. And that's why Nice had the chance to score from the counterattack. I don't think Marseille will do such a stupid thing against PSG either. Marseille will definitely keep their defense strong against PSG. Because they know very well that PSG's attack is very strong.

I would say that's not playing well in the end. First of all if you lose, then you played bad, I do not agree with all of that "played well but still lost" mindset because if you played well then you would have won. Secondly, and more important to the point, their defense being unguarded is semi-true, their defenders were there, it's just that they didn't get much help from midfield, but if their defense played better, they could have still won that game.

All in all, I believe that they attacked too much, but with no poise at all, they were bad at attacking, and that is why other team had so many chances to counter attack and find goals, and they need to never repeat that again.

[ShowOff]

Nobody really doubts PSG on my side, they are a strong team and are probably the favorites to win the title. I don't think they will fail this season especially in Ligue 1, but I doubt they will qualify for the Champions League quarter-finals without Mbappe or Neymar.

There is a chance to beat Bayern Munich in the Champions League if Neymar, Messi and Mbappe really get to their best. Meanwhile, if all three or one or two of them are injured, PSG will definitely fail. Hope is always there, but Bayern Munich are a strong team in defense and they are a team with a high goal productivity in Germany. I know it will be difficult for both teams, but PSG have good hopes.

Judging from the current conditions, it's a little more complicated for them. Seeing that Mbappe is not in the squad and looking at the match that is currently underway for PSG against Marseille at the moment in the French Cup, they are still very difficult to face Marseille and it can be seen from the possession of the ball and the opportunities they got in this match even though the score is still 0 -0.
But I think the conditions will not be much different from Monaco here.

[buwaytress]

Couldn't watch the game as I was busy getting some cheer on in England but seeing Sanchez's name pop up on my livescore, didn't expect an own goal from him. Edit: I meant goal!

What a lead by Marseille, sure it's half time and already a late leveller, but quick check on stats shows domination from the home team. Maybe they prevent you-know-who from getting a clean sweep in France, eh?

Oh and when was the last time Ramos scored from open play? I can't remember (but it's not like I've been following so close these days).

Kind of miffed I missed odds on this one, anyone know what pre-match markets looked like?

A bullet header from Ramos denied lead of Marseille which scored by Sanchez on Penalty in 31st minute of this round of 16 game between Marseille vs PSG an entertaining match between top teams of the French League are fighting hard for the spot of the quarterfinal with PSG is playing with their all first line players and Neymar is also doing good after recovery from injury, and now they are preparing for their next challenging match in Ligue 1 against Monaco which is going to play on 11th February at Stade Louis II Monaco before going to play against another challenging match against Bayern Munich on 15th February at Parc des Princes Paris.
The odds for this match before start was Marseille @3 Draw @3.2 and PSG @2.2

[Distraction]

Lille actually didn't start well to the match. They had serious weaknesses in defense and this helped Lyon benefit from them.

Especially Lyon's second goal was due to a big defensive mistake. But even though the score came to 2-0, Lille still didn't give up and made a really great comeback. They managed to carry the match to penalties. By the way before 90 minutes ended Lyon had a big opportunity to score with a header again but the goalkeeper made a really good save. However Lyon were still really successful in penalties as well. Lille missed two penalties one of which was saved by the goalkeeper. Both teams made a great effort of course so I appreciate them both.

In fact, there is another option to get things done, but it will not be implemented. If you forbid PSG to spend more than they earn (actually earn and not under contracts with Qatari laundering offices), then this club will be blown away in one season and the players will scatter to other leagues. And the championship will immediately become more interesting - after all, even now, if we remove PSG, we see a kaleidoscope of teams that replace each other at the top and, in general, there is a fierce struggle where it is impossible to predict the winner.

Right and it kind of shows that the Ligue 1 is just relatively unattractive for some reason. I don't know whether it is just bad management by the national association and how they market soccer as a product, but after all this also shows that Ligue 1 is fighting with a problem where both sides of the coin are bad. If they allow some sheikh to spend money like crazy, they can get players like Neymar, Messi and Mbappe and make the league more attractive for people. However, it is going to be as one-sided as it is now and, hence, kind of boring. If, as you say, they force PSG to earn more than or as much as they spend, the cub will be blown away, no superstars will be playing in Ligue 1 and desperate the competition for the title being more fierce, the league is kind of boring again.

The only way to get out of this hamster wheel is probably to have more sheikhs or oligarchs invest more money into more French clubs. But that is not a very great idea either.

It kind of seems that national league rankings within Europe in terms of attractiveness are kind of set in stone. It is unrealistic to believe that the Premier League could lose the number 1 spot anytime soon. The first time when I noticed that a national league could really lose some of its prestige was when the rivalry of Ronaldo vs. Messi and Madrid vs. Barcelona fell apart in a sense when many players of that era stopped playing for those clubs and, additionally, Atletico Madrid also started to massively decline.

League 1 as a business is much worse than the Premier League and no sheikhs and artificial infusions of money can change this. As far as I heard, tickets for League 1 games are several times cheaper than for Premier League games, and everyone knows that TV rights to show EPL games bring record amounts. League 1 needs to develop as a business, then over time they will be able to reach the level of the EPL, all other artificial methods are nonsense.

I enjoyed the game. I feel very bad that PSG lost. Messi and Neymar could not prevent PSG from leaving the French Cup. Even if Mbappe is not in this match, PSG started the match with Messi and Neymar. Much talked about club PSG lost 2-1 against Marseille with two top stars. It was Marsche who put PSG under a lot of pressure from the start. And leaving this pressure behind, Messi and Neymar could not turn around in the end. They have to leave the field with defeat till the end.

[rendravolt]

PSG suffered a defeat in the Coupe de France competition against Marseille with a score of 2-1 and this was a defeat that the Galtier squad did not want. As far as I see the formations of the two teams, here I see the formation changes made by Galtier, he uses the 4-1-3-2 formation which makes Messi and Neymar the main spearheads for PSG's attack line. However, it seems that the formation is not effective enough because we know PSG has always used 2 wingers and 1 striker in every game this season, but it seems that Mbappe's injury made Galtier try other options and this time they failed.

the problem is that PSG cannot improve their defense, in most games they concede goals and to make matters worse, if they don't score they will lose, this problem comes from a long time ago, they changed coach precisely because they couldn't solve the problem in their defense, and from what I see this current coach has not been able to solve the problem in defense either

and this situation clearly puts PSG in a big failure in the champions league in which having a defense as fragile as their defense is the same as asking to lose and concede a lot of goals, PSG has no conditions to win the champions league that way , in any case, at least I left with a profit, even if it was a small profit, it would already give me enough to take the amount I won in that game and make another bet in other games

[makishart]

Marseille have a potential to beat PSG as well. 2.71 is a pretty nice odd to bet on in my opinion. PSG have more important affairs to attend to. Besides Neymar and Mbappe both are injured as it seems. Marseille have a great chance ahead to eliminate the biggest threat in the tournament.

I think that im gonna take marseille in the upcoming match rather than PSG. I doubt if this time PSG can perform so well against marseille due to the new accusation for PSG.

That accusation may disrupt the concentration of the players. Messi will become the only player that may be a savior for PSG. Marseille has been getting bad result last match. This is the hardest thing to determine caused by PSG and marseille were competing with each other.

Risking money to pick PSG is worthy enough. I may change my mind.

PSG has been in a bad form lately because of Mbappe and Neymar injury. Even in the last match against Tolouse, the winning was quite a difficult one. It may be difficult for PSG to accept defeat from Marseille but Betting on Marseille to win against PSG at this moment is quite a good risk to take because in their last clash, PSG was able to escape with just a goal and that can really tell how challenging the match was, even with Neymar, mbappe and Messi on the pitch.

Yeah, glad i have put my bet on marseille rather than PSG. PSG's defense was really bad at the last match against marseille. The second goal was coming from counter attack by marseille. Messi and Neymar are not enough to make PSG win the match against marseille. I do see that how marseille was threatening PSG's goalkeeper from so many long shots. So many golden chances already made by marseille compared with PSG. Marseille is also even better in attacking line compared with PSG.

PSG can't win this match and I'm not worried about that at all. I don't even think PSG played to win this match. PSG players performed very cautiously in this match. Because no player wants to get injured before a Champions League match. And that's why PSG attacked very little in this match. However, PSG's defenders could have performed a bit better. I am not satisfied with the performance of the defenders. Such a defense will not be effective against Bayern Munich. Galtier will definitely need to stabilize his defense if Bayern are to win against Munich. PSG will play against Monaco in the next match. Galtier has one more chance to solidify his match strategy.

Just like i said before i am not saying PSG not serious for this match but because they have more important matches in other competitions so their players will playing carefully and attempts not to get injured and this probably makes them lose because although they had dominate the match but Marseille were more good in the term of shot on goals and indeed defensive lines could be main concern for Galtier because recently their defender couldn't performing well and after world cup PSG has conceded 8 goals on France league and this is not impressive records considering they are the team with strongest defense before

On the other hand today Lens will fight against Lorient and i am waiting Lens performance can they bounce back from this match or not and i can see Lens is the favourite today with odds @2.06 but i feel like this match will ended draw at normal time considering Lorient recent performance also not so bad
