French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[Docnaster]

The club already expected to have a new coach in upcoming season. PSG will be making some movements during the summer transfer season. PSG just let galtier to end this season in PSG. Galtier is not as good as people think.

Hiring another coach is not enough for PSG. They must to rebuild their squad and make it more balanced between attacking and defense. If their squad continues to be not balanced, no coach can help them to win Champions League.

PSG already bought some world class players and that's not enough to win UCL PSG. To be honest if the performance from PSG this season is disappointing for PSG fans. Galtier will be sacked or he must be leaving the club by himself. I would not be surprised to see that PSG has been offering some good coaches to join the club.

They have world class players but their squad are imbalanced that makes them weak when they play with big clubs in Champions League. Such imbalance is not a big issue in Ligue 1 but in Champions League, it is their dead weakness.

Messi is already rumored to go back again to the barcelona.

I believe he won't. Barcelona current president Laporta treated Messi badly and he has no reason to rejoin them. Moving to Saudi Arabia Professional League and grab huge salary in a last few years of his career is more interesting for him and his family. In addition, returning to Barcelona might not bring more happiness to Messi and he will get more pressure there.

What you say is very real, and I really agree with what you say about Messi, apart from the fact that a few months ago Messi's brother revealed in an interview that Messi would never return to Barcelona, and it seems to me a very good thing, because they took him out As if it was already destroyed, I don't understand it, maybe they want to do like Real Madrid that they only want to keep young players? I don't know, but I didn't like that gesture at all from Barcelona, plus I still remember that Messi was willing to lower his salary in order to stay at Barcelona, that's something you should never do and be an example of the things that a person should never do for a job.

.

The ill treatment that Lionel Messi got from Barcelona's president and some members of the the club's is still unbelievable and embarrassing many football fans and to the greatest footballer to have ever graced the  beautiful of game of football. Messi left the spanish giants when he least expected to leave and that's why I think it'll be very difficult to convince him and bring Messi back to the Camp Nou again.
But that being said, there's possibility to lie him back to Barcelona and that's because of his love for Barcelona and fans of the football club. The PSG fans in recent times has criticised Messi because of the club's performances this season.

Lens lost one player due to a red card, PSG will certainly take advantage of that and well at this time they are leading with score 3-0 at halftime, Vitinha previously managed to get an assist for Mbappe and the second goal also by this man, third goal by Messi. It seems like Lens is getting more and more helpless after losing one player, now they will go home with a feeling of unhappy because maybe in the second half PSG can add another score.

You know what ...

The strange thing is that after the red card psg conceded 1 goal and no more goal after that till the rest of the match while bookies putting low odds on the under goals asian handicap lol this is a joke for me, especially for those who thinks and bet on over goals.

[Leviathan.007]

Lens, as well as all the Ligue 1 teams, have to take advantage of the bad Moment that PSG is going through because it is the opportunity for them to catch up with them, they have Ney injured and they have Messi and Mbappé who are leaving, so all that Tension makes the players not do well on the field, I think that this time the Sheikh got out of hand the tremendous team that he put together at one point to be the one that won many Championships, including the UCL, which is what they Want more, for now what the teams have to do is play to win and give everything.

This game was a good performance for Lens to decrease the gap with PSG while they couldn't use the chance tonight against this game, I think the reason of why we saw Lens lose this game was the first minutes of the game when they got a red card and they had to play with 10 players instead of full team, while in the second half, PSG had a much better performance which can be a good reason to say the deserved this win.

Lens actually can keep up PSG in the first 20 minutes on the first half they even can makes several shot attempts which is threaten PSG defense but indeed this red card is very affect to their game that after this incident Lens cannot able to performing well and they have to losing points from this match and a bit dissapoint because now PSG can wided their points gap with their contender and this also makes PSG closer to the Ligue 1 title this season

For upcoming match too looks interested that Marseille will faced weak team Troyes and after dissapoint results from their previous matches against Lorient and Montpellier i think Marseille have to return to winning way and taking over second position from Lens and for squad conditions i can see all of Marseille key players in the good shape and ready to play but the odds isn't favourable to bets because the bookie only provided @1.22 for Marseille

This match was very important for Lens. Because they were fighting for PSG's title. And if PSG manages to defeat the team in this match, Lens' points gap with PSG will decrease. And the road to the title would have been a little easier for Lens. But Lens failed completely. PSG's attack performed well in this match. Messi and Mbappe both managed to score. Mbappe even had an assist. If PSG can continue this kind of performance, then their performance will be more stable in the future. And the PSG team will definitely win the Ligue 1 title.

[xzone]

As you said, looking at the statistics, we can see that this match will not be an easy one. The fact that PSG is currently in the lead doesn't mean they can easily win this match. Maybe this evening's winning team will be Lens.
If PSG lose this match, they may have problems with the title. There is only 1 game point difference and the excitement can continue until the last week of the season

Try to stay calm, PSG will most likely win today against Lens. 
After all, PSG still has a distance of 6 points from Lens, so even if PSG loses (maybe not) Lens will still have a distance of 3 points from PSG.

PSG will try to win this home game without any mistakes. They lost 6 points in the last 3 matches, so against Lens they should be quite capable of avoiding defeat. Lens is likely to have a very hard time beating PSG today, but if they play well then of course PSG will also have a hard time beating them. Lens had to play with 10 players from the 20th minute, so it might be more difficult for Lens to win this fight.

If Abdul Samed had not been shown the red card, things might have been different. It is not possible to win such a match by playing 10 players.
PSG managed to win this match with goals scored in just 10 minutes. I didn't think they would score so many goals, they played better than I expected. Actually both teams were good but PSG won. Being a champion will remain only a dream for Lens

Against Lens, PSG managed to put up a remarkable performance. The Lens team opened up completely defensively but the PSG team attacked very well and managed to score 3 goals. Lionel Messi played a special role for PSG in this match.

Actualy in this match against Monaco, Lens is near to even lose their position in the table because in the last game against PSG, they lost important three points and decrease their chance for first place in the table they currently have 63 points and played one game more than Marseille while if they lose points in the next week against Monaco there is a high chance for them to lose their place.

Yes, I agree; it's all about media hype, and we have very low chances for the Messi is going back to Camp Nou for his last few years in soccer most chances he will stay here in PSG with most chances we have no other club in UEFA which is going to have him in case of he will leave PSG then most chances his destination will be MLS or any Arab League because we already have few luxury deals for him from Saudi Arab Professional league which are important but currently no under his radar as he is looking for better options into UEFA.

Things are not ideal here in PSG, but we can expect any big change with most chances PSG management will try to offload Neymar and few other players for having changes in their midfield and defence which will bring positive changes and new coach is also vital for them, but all will be clear in June or July as right now they are just looking for the Ligue 1 title.

Lens will still face a tough journey after their defeat to Paris Saint Germain. Monaco is a difficult opponent for them, because not only are they a strong team, but they are also chasing Lens to be able to shift its position in 2nd place in the standings. Lens' loss to Paris Saint Germain brought them closer to 3rd and 4th place, it was dangerous for them. The competition for 2nd place is getting very interesting now.

After a long time, Lionel Messi put on a remarkable performance in a match at PSG. Lionel Messi had an outstanding performance against Lens, to say the entire match was played by Lionel Messi alone. Besides, Kylian Mbappe's outstanding performance also helped to win this match.

Today's match could be a thrilling one. But, game atmosphere changed when Abdul Samed was sent off in the 19th minute. From that moment on, PSG managed to get the job done well against their title rivals. Down to 10 men, Lens did not take the result lying down. With this win, PSG are now 9 points clear of the league table and it's only a matter of time until they lift up their 11th league title. This result has made the situation in Ligue 1 even more predictable and there is no more excitement left in the title race.

You are right to express solidarity with you. PSG strengthened their position in the points table after defeating Lens. However, Lens tried to play a bit better in the first stage, then when PSG team managed to score, Lens' attack was completely weak.

As much as football fans wants strong contenders who would battle it out with Paris Saint Germain for the French Ligue 1 title let us also not forget that Lens are not PSG's match in terms of quality and depth of the squads. Lens has performed exceptionally well this season and should get the credits they deserve as a club. Paris Saint Germain's spending spree has made them unchallengeable to other French clubs and that I think is not gonna stop anytime soon. We are talking about Lens catching up with PSG because PSG has underperformed this season despite their league position.

becoming a champion for Lens could have happened if Messi's contract had expired but it looks like it's been extended.
what is clear is that PSG in every match to come will always be the winner to provide a distance of points that are a bit far for Lens. because PSG deserves to be champions.

Messi's performance in this match was really great. Honestly, he played very well in almost every game this season. But Paris Saint-Germain FC fans protested him after the Lyon game. He really didn't deserve to experience this. And despite this, I would be very surprised if he continues to stay at Paris Saint-Germain FC.

what is clear is that PSG in every match to come will always be the winner to provide a distance of points that are a bit far for Lens. because PSG deserves to be champions.

Paris Saint-Germain FC have very strong offensive players. I agree with this as well as everyone else. But the midfielders are a little weak. Ruiz, Soler and Vitinha will be enough for the league. But they need better players if they want to be successful in the Champions League. They should transfer a few quality midfielders during the transfer window.

[Ratash]

A nice comeback win from lille team after losing the first half they managed to comeback and snatch the three points, thanks to Remy cabella and jonathan david who is on fire this season by scoring 20 goals so far and putting pressure on mbappe for that ligue 1 goalscorer trophy.

[rendravolt]

The curse of a draw in the previous meeting with Lens was finally overcome by PSG by winning at home with a convincing score of 3-1. Throughout the match PSG were able to dominate with 62% possession and Lens were only able to collect 38%, PSG were so favored because they were the home team.

The difference between the two teams was clear, especially when one of the Lens players had to be sent off for getting a red card in the 19th minute. Suddenly this was an opportunity for PSG to keep pressing until Mbappe, Vitinha and Messi got their names on the scoreboard. Lens was only able to score 1 goal in this match and even then through the penalty spot. PSG are increasingly comfortable at the top of the standings with a total of 72 points and making the distance from Lens to 9 points.

PSG managed to consolidate their position after defeating Lens, possibly 9 points clear at the top of the league. I think PSG will do well in the next matches and will have the best team in League One and also secure the title.

My bet was on Lille to Win the match,  I never had any doubt concerning that. The whole game was controlled by Lille, including the possessions. Initially I was confident when the game started until Sylla registered the first goal.
Lille stired up pressure in the game during the second half
But it's a shameful result for Montpelier,  to have allowed two goals under 3 minutes is what should be termed a Sluggish performance. But I I've more credit to Remi Cabella, he's a huge addition to the team.
