-snip-

For upcoming match Lorient vs Marseille i think Marseille had good chances to earn 3 points from Lorient because they are in the good shape and Marseille even still unbeatable for away matches since November last year with got 8 winning streak from away matches besides that from head to head statistics we can see Marseille is too strong for Lorient because they had got 5 consecutive wins in the last 5 meetings with Lorient and i think Marseille will got easy win today and the odds for Marseille is @1.58

The head to head record can be a reference for Marseille match tonight, they on paper should be able to get a win and steal three points from Lorient. Also Lorient at home is not too consistent, even previously they lost vs Auxerre in February, if odds @ 1.58 for Marseille this is a worth it to bet and I think I'll agree that Marseille will win this match because they will also motivated to win, so they can stay close with Lens at standings.

After Lens got a really decent win against Strasbourg and PSG did the same against Nice, Marseille have no other choice than winning against Lorient to be able to keep up with them. Marseille seem to be quite favourite side for winning this match according to bookies now. They beat Lorient home before as well. Moreover Lorient have had a really bad form for many weeks. This makes Marseille even more advantageous against them. Besides I can't say that Lorient have much chance for qualifying for a tournament.

But it isn't the same for Marseille. Because they are playing for the Champions League from now on. And who knows maybe they could get a chance for the title as well. I think Marseille will be prepared for Lorient and be victorious.

Paris was in need of the victory yesterday night and they got it,I don't care much about the performance in the last stages of the Ligue 1 as what they needed were the 3 points and they got them.Lens was coming extremely dangerous and it was only 3 points away before the game of Paris so now they are again 6 points away and Paris can have somewhat more peace of mind.

Recently, Galtier has often used the 3-5-2 system, especially in the last three matches in a row. fortunately, they were able to beat the home team Nice. yes, although in terms of performance it cannot be said to be better. but the fact is, they made it back to winning ways. in fact, Nice had several chances far more than PSG had. it's a shame, the Nice players weren't able to convert it properly and scored a goal. as a result, PSG again widened the gap in points from its competitors. 6 points adrift of the team below them, should have motivated Galtier's team to play even better. next week, we will see PSG host against Lens.

Tonight looks like an easy game for Marseille but Lorient is a team which plays well at home and the odd of 1.58 for Marseille seems a bit low to me,nevertheless I bet on them as they need to come to second place and they need the win also.

For this match, on paper Marseille is far more favored than the home team. after all, if we refer to the history of the H2H meetings between these two teams, Marseille has always dominated the victory over Lorient.
on the other hand, Lorient is in not so good form. from the last 5 matches, Lorient was only able to win 1 match, 2 draws and 2 defeats.  plus, they have several injured players. well, at least betting on Marseille is the ideal choice.

Marseille got only 60 points so far and there need three points to reach Lens in the second position of the table I'm sure after the recent wins they had in Lens they have to face PSG in the next game which can be a hard day for Lens and a good chance for Marseille to use this opportunity if they lose they point in the game against PSG.

Messi has problems performing well when everyone else also sucks, but I think that is normal. The reality is that he is the overall best scorer in Ligue 1 and he isn't the 40 goals per season guy anymore, he rather assists his teammates.



He is actually the best scorer by a distance. But I can still understand the fans to a certain degree as you would expect your team to win games 4-0 frequently and I see it the same way. There is a billion dollar team on the pitch and now they even see their Ligue 1 title at risk.

Messi showed a great performance in the match against Nice. Paris Saint-Germain FC fans should be ashamed for booing him. At the end of this season, he may leave Paris Saint-Germain FC because of these bad events. He is the player with the most assists in Ligue 1 this season. Furthermore, he has 14 goals this season. If Messi leaves this team, I wonder who they plan to transfer to replace him. Instead of showing affection for Messi, they seem to get him away from Paris Saint-Germain FC.

It's almost impossible for Nice to participate in European cups. They played successful matches in the league in the last weeks, but they could not show enough performance. It would be a miracle if they won against PSG. It was expected and they lost 2-0. Now they can't save any more points because Psg wants the championship.

Instead of expecting Nice qualify for the League, then I think one from Monaco and Marseille and Lens are the most likely teams to be there next season. Monaco, Marseille and Lens do not have much difference in points, so one of the three is expected to qualify for the Champions League and Europa League next season. About PSG, they are the favorites for the title, it's very possible.

PSG are 6 points ahead of Lens after winning against Nice a few days ago. His position is safe from Lens, but Lens has the opportunity to close the gap if he manages to win full points next week from PSG, which in my opinion is difficult. I think PSG will eventually widen the safety gap from Lens to 9 points, I hope it is.

I'm sure the reason Marseille is the favorite in the away match against Lorient is because, so far this season Marseille is the team that has the best record for away mach. Also, in head to head results Marseille has a high dominance of wins when Marseille plays against Lorient. So yes, I think it is clear that these factors make it projected that Marseille will win in this match.

Even though Lorient is also in a position that can still be said to be good because it is in the middle of the standings and also, so far this season Lorient has not been too bad when playing at home. So yes, I personally feel that Marseille is still not easy to beat Lorient in this match but indeed, the chance to win for Marseille in this match is quite promising as well.

Messi can't possibly still enjoy himself with this team in the league? Supporters also seem to be turning against him more and more, I think. For a great player like Messi, just becoming champion in the league is not enough to win that as a prize in 1 season. PSG has a strong team with great players, but as a team it is not possible to achieve international successes. And in the cup they also suffered a painful defeat a few weeks ago. I wouldn't even know who might be the best coach for this team. Maybe Zidane?

[slapper]

Finally psg team managed to win after two consecutive losses and it was against a tough team such as Nice this is the first time the home team lost since january and this means that Nice team will not be participating in a european competition next season unless they win the conference league.

It's almost impossible for Nice to participate in European cups. They played successful matches in the league in the last weeks, but they could not show enough performance. It would be a miracle if they won against PSG. It was expected and they lost 2-0. Now they can't save any more points because Psg wants the championship.

Regarding Nice's chances of competing at the highest levels in Europe, I hear you, guy. They're in a jam this year, and it's hard to imagine them competing with the elite teams

All teams have success and failure, but we must not forget that. Even though Nice is having a hard time right now, that doesn't mean they're going down for good. Finding the sweet spot, settling down, and putting in the work are all necessary to take their performance to the next level

When it comes to the decline of the French league, however, I agree with you. Seeing it fall so far behind Europe's best is discouraging. But they can still get back to where they once were. Maybe Nice will surprise everyone and win the European Cup this year

Yes, that's right, Nice has a small chance of participating in Europe next season. With their current distance it is difficult to be in the ranks of clubs to be representatives of Ligue 1.

The Lorient vs marseille match is in progress, no goals have been scored in this match. Overall, Marsellie is the favorite even though this is an away game for them, but that doesn't stop them from being the favorites in this clash. It looks like they will win by a narrow margin.

Expectations for Lionel Messi are so high, so when Messi can't deliver that then they will criticize him back. I'm not going to blame anyone, Messi or the Paris Saint Germain fans, because things like this are used to happening. Maybe Messi is already feeling uncomfortable, I don't think he will try to stay, so maybe he will leave Paris Saint Germain. The news about his departure has now surfaced, but there is no definite confirmation from him yet, so let's wait.

Nantes v Monaco was really one of the interesting matches I have seen in the Ligue 1 recently. I mean the match was actually under control for Monaco especially in the first half. They got a 2-0 lead already and I don't remember how many times they wasted chances to score their third goal as well. This match proves a point that even a 2-0 lead isn't completely enough to be confident about a win.

Nantes' goals were such easy ones. A header following a cross and there it is!    They didn't even play properly during this match so I just call them as lucky to have this one point today. Monaco had better improve their defending against this kind of situations. This is an important point loss for them while trying to qualify for the Champions League.

P. S.G is certainly in a safe position. But the performance from PSG has certainly not been very good. Well, it has been good, but it could be better. PSG was certainly below expectations this season. PSG is certainly going to win the title. I don’t think there is any doubt about that. It is going to be very surprised if they don’t.

Marseille got only 60 points so far and there need three points to reach Lens in the second position of the table I'm sure after the recent wins they had in Lens they have to face PSG in the next game which can be a hard day for Lens and a good chance for Marseille to use this opportunity if they lose they point in the game against PSG.

Lens and Marseille are currently very close to each other. These two are going to have a competition for the second position at the table. I don’t think anyone is going to cause any problems for PSG. After all, they are still ahead by six points. And for PSG that is more than good enough. expected better from Monaco, to be honest.

Marseille vs Lorient
41 minutes have been played in this match and neither team has been able to break the deadlock. I personally think Marseille he’s going to be the winner of this match.

However, the match ended in a 2-2 draw which delayed Monaco's victory in this match. It was very clear how the goal from Nantes was created and the Monaco defense began to have gaps and the Nantes players could take advantage of this opportunity to score goals. The ball possession statistics are also 50% the same, which makes the match very even for the two teams. Strangely, out of a total of 10 shots on target from Monaco, they only produced 2 goals. They should have won this match at least with a narrow score of 2-3. But indeed the appearance of the Nantes goalkeeper should be appreciated with a total of 8 saves in that match.

Monaco's 2 goals in the first half failed to become an advantage because in the second half they had to be willing for the match to become a draw.
Now apart from them failing to get away from LOSC who previously lost, they also failed to get close to Marseille and indeed this is quite regrettable even though the position is still quite safe for Monaco at the moment but a full point failure in this match could have hampered them even though 1 point is still good enough.

[Jossque]

In a match for 6th place, hosts Lyon defeated Rennes 3-1 to reduce the points difference to 3. This win was important for Lyon, they needed to win this match to qualify for the European Cup next year and they did it.
Although both teams played with the same shots and accuracy, it was the hosts who made the most of their positions.
Reims, on the other hand, drew at home.They were the better side but struggled to find the goals.Brest are in the relegation zone and needed the points more but they scored in the early minutes of the first half.
In the second half they scored a penalty goal in the last minute to draw and share the 1 point.It was not a pleasing result for both teams.
Monaco drew away to Nantes.Nantes, who beat Lyon in the cup, came into this match a bit tired.This fatigue was evident in the first half.But Nantes turned the game around and at least got a draw.If Monaco had won, they could have reduced the point difference with Marseille to 1, but they failed.

[swogerino]

I have never seen a more boring game than the one I am watching live Lorient vs Marseille,a game in which Lorient just keep parking the bus and Marseille players look like they don't know how to create goals opportunities,they just keep the ball without any ideas and most likely they will not win this game.It is exactly for this reason that I placed a bet on Lorient win or draw at 2.2 in the beginning of the second half and it looks like I am right,I am just defending another ticket where I only wait Marseille to win but that most likely will not come true as just a few minutes remain and Marseille just keep the ball and no real dangerous attacks at all.

Once again, we understood that without Messi and Sergio Ramos, PSG would be nothing, they could not even enter the position in the last 20 minutes. Lionel Messi needs to come to an agreement in principle with the premier league teams Arsenal or M. City within two months, it would be a shame if we can't watch such a great legend in the English league in the last years, I sincerely expect him to play there for 1-2 years. He prefers the premier league over Barcelona. Messi was the best player of the team in this match, as in almost every match. Messi is the player with the most G+A in Ligue 1 and the player with the highest average rating. Paris fans should be ashamed for booing this guy. They act like it's Messi's fault that they lost ucl, forgetting that they have mediocre midfielders and a weak defensive line.

Marseille were favourite in this game and they end up getting only 1 point. I find it kinda unfair to get the same number of points in a boring game comparing to another exciting match ending with 3-3 goals, maybe the latter should get 2 points..
Lyon won vs Rennes as predicted by bookies. Nantes got a draw this round. Overall, teams in the top 10, apart from PSG, Lens and Lyon, lost some points!

[LUCKMCFLY]

It is that the truth is that PSG have no other choice, they have to win LIGUE 1, because otherwise they will make me laugh at the entire football world, firstly because they have the best players who are Messi and Mbappé,secondly the club that has the most money or that makes it appear that they have too much money, they have iconic players, they want to afford to sell Neymar, after that Messi may leave

Selling Neymar or letting Messi leaves or failing to convince Messi to sign a new contract with them, won't solve problems in PSG. They have big systematic problems with their strategy from buying players to hiring coaches as well as control internal conflicts among their star players. They fail to build up a balanced team between attacking and defense as well as mostly fail to unite their star players as a solid squad for a club success.

I am so doubtful that they will be able to change it in next summer.

Well, then the solution is much simpler, that instead of the players leaving, the Sheikh replaces the technical director, that is much easier than letting their stars go, I'm just saying something, if the stars leave, PSG won't He will not be the leader of any Ligue 1 again, because in the UCL they lost him, they were taken out when they should have stayed and played with everything they had, and leaving these monsters out is something that should not have been, however, in fútbol things they can be like that and the way they have to be, that's why it's good that before letting go of their stars they Review very well what they want.

Honestly, Marseille has given a not very good example of what they need, I keep in mind that it is the team that could have always beaten many teams, including that it is a team that has a great need to win, the fact that they Draw or that They lose, they lose a lot, they are Points that are needed a lot so that they can catch up with a PSG that is not having a very good time, these things are what they have to take advantage of.

[bering]

Marseille and Monaco has failed to wins today and this is dissapointing results because before the matches they are as favourite status and on the paper to earn 3 points should be easy for them but in fact both teams have to playing draw especially Monaco that they almost be win but Nantes has made epic comeback and this makes Monaco have to satisfied to share points with Nantes

Apparently both teams were unable to managed their consistency and to keep up with Lens and now the closest team who possibly can able to pursuing PSG on standings league is only Lens and next weekend i found big match between PSG vs Lens and i expect Lens will be the winner of this match and cut their points gap with PSG and if Lens can able to do that i think we will see Ligue 1 is more interesting because the competitions to get the title will be more tight
