French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[fadhilz123]

Mbappe and Messi will be PSG's hope of defeating Bayern Munich in the second leg later and that seems to be the thing that the Munich defense is most afraid of if they have to deal with these two players. If the first goal is scored by PSG I think they will control the game. For the Ligue 1 standings nothing can stop PSG and I think now Marseille are starting to struggle to cover that distance.

The eight-point gap with PSG clearly makes it very difficult for Marseille to cut it because in Ligue1 it is very difficult for other teams to equalize their strength with PSG in every season including this season so that the opportunity for Marseille to catch PSG at the top of the standings will not be so easy, because PSG knows if in Ligue1 there is no opponent who is really equal for them in terms of getting trophies.

First of all, I will say that the strongest team in Ligue 1 is PSG. And PSG is the favorite to win the title. Because PSG's squad is very strong. PSG team is still 8 points ahead of second-place Marseille in the table. Closing this 8-point gap is very difficult as Marseille's performance has been erratic. Marseille have lost two of their last 5 matches. Without consistency in performance, they will not be able to compete for the title with PSG.

If PSG loses against Bayern Munich today and is eliminated from the Champions League, their only target will be the Ligue 1 title. Then PSG will dominate Ligue 1 and their performance will be even stronger.

PSG's strength is above the average of other teams, so it's only natural that PSG is currently at the top of the standings and a strong candidate to win.
actually PSG this season is not so consistent, they have got 3 draws and 3 defeats but other teams are still unable to make fierce competition with PSG in Ligue1.

Actually we can't measure it for now, because this season is not over yet. there are still 12 matches left, we will see how consistent the PSG players are until this season ends. because if we compare it to last season, in 38 matches, PSG experienced 8 draws, 4 defeats and 26 wins. and this season, PSG has only suffered 3 defeats and 3 draws. also, the decline in performance experienced by PSG was due to several factors. in particular, post-world cup. plus, the poor performance of midfield and defensive players.

for PSG's UCL second leg match against Bayern, it is a meeting of two teams that have almost the same strength so all possibilities are still there for both teams.
and apart from that, of course PSG did not use Ligue1 as their reason for the results to be achieved in the UCL or the distraction of their focus.

An unpleasant situation for PSG in the absence of Neymar who was hit by an injury. also, this match will be held at the Allianz Arena, Bayern headquarters. a match that was not easy for the Galtier squad team to win. However, that doesn't mean PSG doesn't have a chance to overthrow Bayern. so, we'll see how Mbappe and Messi's duet is in this match.
I hope PSG will show their best version of the game and this match presents a very interesting match from the two teams that will fight.

Only around 12 matches remaining. Im feeling doubt if marseille will able to catch PSG. 8 points are not so big but since PSG is always trying to win again its opponent for the upcoming match and that makes 8 points gap become very big to be chased by marseille.

The duo between mbappe and messi has been also giving a new answer since neymar was injured. The chance for marseille to win the trophy is really small at this moment. The performance from PSG is showing a steady increase rather than down trend.

That makes marseille has no chance although marseille will always be winning the upcoming match. Marseille can only pray that if miracle will come to the club and PSG lose so many points.

That's quite impossible to happen but since there are still 12 matches remaining and losing three matches look like possible for PSG.

After the huge amount of money invested in Paris Saint-Germain, they now have the strongest forwards in the world like Messi, Neymar, and Mbappe while according to some news, Neymar lost the whole season and he can't help his team in the field anymore they still have Messi and Mbappe also even if Messi leave PSG after this season they still have Mbappe which can be enough for them to win the title in the French League.

If PSG loses against Bayern Munich today and is eliminated from the Champions League, their only target will be the Ligue 1 title. Then PSG will dominate Ligue 1 and their performance will be even stronger.

Psg have so much money and very good players, so it is a disappointment if their only target is one trophy, and that is the Ligue 1, since 2013 they have won the Ligue 1 title 8 times, it shows that winning the Ligue 1 is no longer a problem for psg, and even if they go as far as the champions league final, it would not affect or stop them from winning the Ligue 1. If psg are eliminated from the champions league today, they are going to be very disappointed and the manager may even be sacked at the end of the season. Psg have to win tonight, it is the champions league they need to win.

I can confidently tell you that the problem of PSG is not the Ligue 1 title. It is uncountable how many times they have won the league one title and how many years of domination?
No one signs great players like Neymar, Mbappe and Messi just to win the league one title. The essence of bringing this great players and spending enormous amount of money is simply to win the Champions League and I think this season they would have been more chance to win the Champions League. If not that Neymar has left because of injury. However, let us see how tomorrow will be.

Auxerre vs Rennes

This week's match will be very interesting because both teams have strong goals to move up the standings. We know Auxerre, who in the previous few matches appeared very impressive and little by little they have hope to leave the relegation zone this season. For Rennes they need this win to close the gap from the top 4 and of course he wants to keep away from Lille's pursuit. In the betting exchange it is clear that Rennes will be favored to win this match, but I have quite a doubt that Rennes will fail to steal full points at home to Auxerre. I think betting the 0.75 handicap for Axuerre's advantage is a pretty good option even if the match ends in a draw for the two teams.

Rennes are currently in very good form in the France League.  They beat PSG a few days ago. There is a match between Auxerre vs Rennes in the France league on 11th March and I will definitely favor Rennes considering their current form.  Currently in France league Rennes is number five team in point table and Auxerre is number 17 team in point table which means they are at bottom of point table so they will want to win the match against Rennes but I am hopeful that Rennes will win this match.

Even though they have a better performance, I don't really believe in Auxerre to be able to hold Rennes to a draw at least. Because Rennes is also on the same mission, namely victory after they lost points the previous week. Their victory in this game is very important because they are in the shadow of the team that is right below them now.

Auxerre will have hard times during this game because they need to take some points and get themselves away from the danger zone of the table while they are currently 22 points which are only one or two points more than the teams in the danger zone in the other hand Rennes were performing very good recently and the last time Rennes played a game against Auxerre, they beat Auxerre with a 5-0 result which can make it hard for Auxerre.

An interesting match to place a bet on. I think Rennes chances are better even though they didn't perform well in their previous matches. however, one of the things that happened in this match was that Auxerre wanted to perform brilliantly at home in the target of getting out of the relegation zone.

but the thing that makes me sure of betting for rennes is their first meeting this season which Rennes feasting on goal at that time. I believe this will be a good capital for them to beat Auxerre in the match later. from the predictions of the gambling house, I found that some of them favored Rennes to get out of this match.

One of the most important matches of this week is Lille-Lyon on Friday. Lille need to win this match rather than Lyon. We can say that they have the home advantage. It would be sad for them to lose points in this match. It's a match they must win for sure, because rennes can lose points from auxerre. Rennes is out of form these days and auxerre needs to get points if they don't want relegation.

I absolutely agree with you on this because Lyon are 6 points behind Lille who are sitting on the 6th position in the table. So I think they will want to make up for their poor performance this season by finishing in a position that will grant the chance to play European football next season and if they must do that, winning their match against Lille on Friday is must. Lyon will be playing at home so with the help of their optimistic fans cheering them, they will definitely want to give the fans a result they can look back at with excitement.

If PSG loses against Bayern Munich today and is eliminated from the Champions League, their only target will be the Ligue 1 title. Then PSG will dominate Ligue 1 and their performance will be even stronger.

No matter how strong, PSG had to leave the Champions League today. Bayern Munich beat Messi Mbappe's team to the last eight of the Champions League. Bayern Munich secured the quarter-finals with a 2-0 win over PSG in the second round of the last sixteen. Today's match was really amazing. Despite PSG being so strong, they lost to Bayern Munich and had to leave. Who is every player at congratulation Bayan Munich?

[Velvet78]

Lille - Lyon will be a quite competitive game this Sunday night. Bookmakers are favouring Lille quite much maybe but I don't see that much of a gap between them these days.

The point gap is even only 6 points right now. Besides their recent head-to-head games also have been very close. I will be expecting another close game here. Lyon would be quite disadvantageous if they don't have Lacazette in this game. But as far as I can see he isn't injured anymore. I think we will see him in the starting eleven. Then Lyon should also be very effective about scoring goals. My first pick is both teams to score.

This game is of outstanding importance for Lyon given the standings in the Ligue 1 table. If they want to stay in range of the Europa League qualifiers, this is almost a must win game and at the very least a must not lose game. Seven points to Renne is still doable, but they would also stay in striking distance to OSC Lille if they tie this game or even better win that game. If they lose it the whole season is somewhat dead in the water. There is no risk that they get relegated into the French 2. league but also only little chance left that they can compete for the higher ranks anymore.

OSC Lille on the other hand could make a big step towards the Champions League qualifier as Lens is having problems right now and Monaco couldn't win the last two games either.

After PSG eliminating from Champion League 16th round, right now not any Ligue 1 team participants left in Champion League and seems Ligue 1 still not compete for the European competition. Disappointed with PSG and Lionel Messi less contribution how to bring PSG get great achievement in Champion League.

Left Ligue 1 tittle chance for PSG become the winner this season because Champion League and French Cup have been eliminated early, seems PSG will focus how to win as soon possible in Ligue 1 behind 8 points gaps with Marseille and still 12 matches later.

A good performance just from Mbappe and Messi won't by far be enough tonight. The whole team needs to stay concentrated and focused for 90 minutes and whatever comes on top. I think Bayern is the big favorite here, but if PSG wants to have a chance they will need to fix their issues regarding their focus. Often times they have some very strong 60 to 70 minutes of the game, but then there are those moments so often that they lose control over the game and mess up their great performance by losing focus for just small phases in the game, but if that happens against an opponent like Bayern Munich you usually get punished for it.
Today we will have one team again so early on in the Champions League that is going to leave that international stage with a lot of disappointment. Getting kicked out at this stage is hard because these players live for the Champions League and the season is kind of over if you are out in early March.

The overall performance of the PSG team was not good against Bayern Munich today. They lost 2-0 and were eliminated from the Champions League. Although Messi's performance is slightly better, I don't see a better performance than Mbappe in this match. A better performance was expected from Mbappe in such an important match.

PSG could not even score a goal. They lost both home and away matches. There are many star players on the team. Yet their performance is poor. PSG management should have appointed an experienced coach for the Champions League. Galtier was not experienced enough. And the PSG team got the result very well.

Bayern is too strong for PSG. League 1 already lost its candidate in UCL. Messi has another chance next season if messi was still playing at PSG. PSG was not strong but bayern is. galtier was so mad with the result against bayern. The first goal was actually blunder by PSG's defender.
I would not be surprised to see that if galtier will be selling some defenders upcoming transfer season. It's very hard to accept it but PSG must have tried another chance again to win UCL trophy.
It's very bad for galtier to see the first goal that he never expected before.
