French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[shogun47]

I just don't understand, why PSG this season does not look too promising to get a better victory of course with clean sheets. Because after all, it also seems that PSG concedes more often first until they finally have to work harder to be able to turn things around. Because in this home match against Nice also, in fact PSG conceded first in the 21st minute, and Mbappe managed to get a goal back in the 29th minute. It seems like I was wrong to be too confident in Enrique to be able to make PSG have a better performance, because the reality is that Enrique still seems very difficult to build PSG performance for the better. Moreover, if Mbappe is not played, then PSG will be very difficult to score goals.

It is not that they are intentionally conceding goals or do you think they are not trying to keep clean sheets? I think every team tries all the time to keep clean sheets, but some are better and some are worse at keeping a clean sheet. PSG has for a long time been a team that mostly focuses on their offensive game. The problem is that they never had a plan B for games when they couldn't score. And when they then neglected their defense due to how the squad was composed, one goal against them could mean a defeat.

Not long ago Luis Enrique became the coach of PSG. Give ENrique enough time, I think he can do good things with PSG.
Despite not winning the first two matches, PSG's performance improved in the subsequent matches. PSG is playing very well. Enrique is trying to stabilize the team's performance. To strengthen the bond between the players. And it is definitely time consuming. In the last few seasons we have seen PSG have strong squads. But their performance was erratic due to the lack of bond between the players. Luis Enrique is trying to bring stability to the team. And it's not possible very quickly. PSG's tactics have also changed a lot.
However, at the end of the first half, the match was tied at 1-1. I think PSG can get 3 points in this match too. Although Nice will try their best to draw the match and share the points.

Yeah I agree with you PSG defense looks very weak they almost conceded in every match, I don't know if it was a failure of strategy or a lack of strong defensive players on the team what is clear is that the weakness is real. I doubt PSG can reach the highest level this season especially competition in Europa, but yeah maybe it's too quick to jump to conclusions while the league has just started let's see how PSG finishes in the middle of the season.

PSG 1:1 Nice.

The PSG team this season is looking like a team that can easily be defeated by any team in the French Ligue1, they easily concede goals, their performance is very poor and their attacking force is very slow if not Mbappe who has been instrumental since his return to the team I think they need to do everything to keep Mbappe next season because things are going to be worse for them if he eventually leaves the club.

I can't imagine the performance am seeing watching this game, the away team has created so many goal scoring chances but has failed to utilize their chances to register a second goal but I think Nice will definitely get a goal if they keep pressing on the defense of PSG they may take all the three points, good performance from Nice tonight.

Luis Enrique is a very experienced coach and I believe he'll try his best to put the club in other, he's already on a right path recently and that's why we've seen the  teams performance improved in their recent matches this season and i believe they'll continue with this form till the end of the season because it would really help them in the Champions league when they'll face   other top teams in their group.
 
 Buy currently The team is suprisenly under performing against  Nice at home and I expected PSG to be leading with 2 goals currently but it's the other way round and I don't understand why they'll be so careless to allow Nice to be leading two goals currently after Mbappe's opener, is it that without Mbappe's contribution the team can't win or what, Enrique should do something before his team lose the match and drop to 4th or 5th in the table

I don't want to talk bad about Paris but they are down again 1-2 right now in front of their home fans and this does not look good with just about 30 minutes left to play.I think Nice will close themselves in defense now making it more difficult for Paris,they will be based on counter attacks and they can surprise Paris even further.

While I believe that by Paris losing tonight and ruining my bet,my main bet for tonight which was a parlay with Bayern Munchen which is also drawing in late additional time makes the Ligue 1 much better and more interesting.Football started this weekend unfortunately up until now with 2 surprise results if PSG fails to win and yeah right now 1-3 for Nice which just scored again,with 20 minutes to go I doubt they can turn things around.

Paris destroyed so many bets tonight and they are really bad this season and like i said my predictions before the season started i think they dont have the team to win the title. Since all the superstars left they are bad and cannot find the right way to start winning all games.

Maybe PSG is going to lose today. This will be PSG's first defeat of the season. The PSG team is now trailing by 3-1. 85 minutes of play is over. At the end of the first half, the match was tied at 1-1. Expected to see a better performance from PSG in the second half. But their performance was poorer in the second half. PSG now have 68% ball possession. But they are attacking very little. Despite having 68% of the ball possession, PSG managed only 11 shots, while firing 12 shots. While PSG only had 2 shots on target, Nice had 7 shots on target. However, Luis Enrique should change his match strategy. and strengthening defenses. Otherwise, it will be very difficult for PSG to stay at the top of the points table.

[borovichok]

PSG vs Nice, 2-3 on the scoresheet, visitors having the leading points. The parisians losing the game and its already injury time. It's an amazing results for Nice this season, coming to Parc des Princes and thrashing PSG, getting away with the solid accumulated three points. However we should not conclude yet, because there's possibly time, this is football and anything can happen. I awaits the shocking defeats of the hosts, it would be a dissapointing nights for them. Luis Enrique and the supporters are hoping for a draw tie because Paris Saint-Germain keeps the pressure on the visitors, it's just few minutes remaining for the referee, Clément Turpin to blow the final whistle.

You should know better than to bet on PSG to win. Although they're always the favorite to win every league game, they end up not always winning. A game against Nice was always going to be a difficult game for PSG.

PSG made a very wrong decision with Dembele. I'm not surprised though. PSG is so used to making wrong decisions. There are a lot of better and less risky players they could have gone for but I guess they wanted to flex their muscle on Barcelona like they did with Neymar.
Aside from the fact that Dembele can be a waste on the pitch, he'll go on his usual long-term injuries sooner or later. A serious club shouldn't bank on that type of player.

I know Luis Enrique is a very experienced coach. He was doing very well with the Spain team. He was able to strengthen a shaky Spain team based on youth. Spain team is playing very well now. Perhaps this is why PSG management entrusted Luis Enrique in charge of their squad.

PSG lost 3-2 against Nice in today's match. And it was PSG's first defeat of the season. The result was unexpected for me. But we have to admit that psg's performance was not good in this match. Also nice players played very well today. They attacked a lot. And almost every attack was pretty intense.

Maybe PSG is going to lose today. This will be PSG's first defeat of the season. The PSG team is now trailing by 3-1.

Who would have thought PSG would show their skills in their defense  . Pathetic performance by PSG and giving open spaces to their opponent inside the goal line and no coordination in the defense what so ever and once Nice scored their first goal, i had my doubts that these blunders would happen again and if not for Donnarumma Nice would have scored more goals.

The match is over, and PSG lost to Nice at Clement Turpin, which is very embarrassing. I expect PSG to win the match because, irrespective of their form this season, they won their last two matches and again won their last two matches against Nice, while Nice drew their first three matches and won just their last match against Strasbourg.

I would say that Mbappe is the only super star player in the PSG team now, and since the departure of Messi, Neymar, and others, PSG's performance has depreciated and might affect their title chase this season because AS Monaco is on fire; they are leading the League One table with 10 points after four matches; if they win their next match against Lorient on Sunday, they will give PSG a five-point gap and a four-point gap to Nice; and if PSG did not improve their performance, they might not win the League this season.

it is too early to call Dembele is a wrong buying decision for the club. I know he has no recorded any assist or goals since moving from Barcelona to PSG but if you watched him during the international break for France in the few minutes he played, you will notice that he still plays great soccer and will definitely pick up performance for PSG if injuries do not take him out. Not all the players who join the new club quickly start scoring goals or creating assist almost immediately. It is good to start your career that way but a player who does not start like that does not mean that the player will not have a great career during his contract with a club, we just have to give him some more time.

In the end it was true that PSG lost this match even though Mbappe again reduced the score in 3 minutes before normal time ended but it was unable to bring PSG to get points at their home in today's match.
Their possession and chances were so lame with on target.
On the other hand, I really liked Nice's performance in this match because they really played very well in terms of defense and the fast counter-attacking scheme they applied was really very worthy of thumbs up and these 3 points deserved them.

But the problem for PSG if things like this continue to happen. The fact is that PSG is only a Mbappe who stands out even though there are many great players there and the current coach still needs to improve because of PSG's current performance.

Nice prevailed 3-2 to claim victory in the match. Since I don't think Paris Saint-Germain will lose to Nice at home, this is seriously driving me insane. I'm just thing why that pgs can't even manage to draw the game, seriously this is so terrible. I bet for them to win the match, but honestly, the other side I witnessed won. This is truly hurting my feelings. The fact that PSG was the team in possession of the field but Nice was scoring is what I find amusing. Since PSG's attacks were not good enough, I seriously doubt they will advance in the Champions League if this is the way they intend to play.

[Velvet78]

It was a horrible night for PSG unfortunately. Mbappe did his best in this game by scoring two goals but even his effort wasn't enough to win this game. Because there is a significant problem on PSG side when it comes to team effort. PSG are too dependent on Mbappe. He has scored 7 out of 10 goals of the team in the league so far.

We saw another example that having a dominance in ball possession isn't enough at all. Nice's xG was way better than PSG tonight. Nice's attacking effort was pretty impressive as they brought the score to even 3-1 during the game. This was a deserved win for them.

Luis Enrique is yet to maintain streak winnings in his league games, he keeps recording unstable performances and there's more weaknesses and defeats coming there way if they don't stood up and fight for their position in Ligue One. Paris Saint Germain lost to Nice in tonight's game. It's a big win for thr visitors who came prepared and had their hands set dominantly in defensive lines against the home team. Nice were very tactical, keep their territory safer with full tackling on the parisians, I'm just sad that Kylian Mbappe didn't get the accolades he deserved when he netted a brace for his club.

Paris Saint Germaine's result against a club like Nice in their French Ligue 1 match tonight was totally humiliating to club as big as PSG and to think that they were best at the Parc des Princes is another reason for the PSG players to bury their heads in shame for such a shambolic performance.
After all the lucrative signings in the summer transfer window PSG isn't supposed to be struggling to win home match against a club like Nice that's not being consistent with in recent games. Luis Enrique must understand that the club really wants better than what he's currently giving or risk being sacked from his managerial role at the club

PSG 1:1 Nice.
The PSG team this season is looking like a team that can easily be defeated by any team in the French Ligue1, they easily concede goals, their performance is very poor and their attacking force is very slow if not Mbappe who has been instrumental since his return to the team I think they need to do everything to keep Mbappe next season because things are going to be worse for them if he eventually leaves the club.

Maybe PSG is going to lose today. This will be PSG's first defeat of the season. The PSG team is now trailing by 3-1. 85 minutes of play is over. At the end of the first half, the match was tied at 1-1. Expected to see a better performance from PSG in the second half. But their performance was poorer in the second half. PSG now have 68% ball possession. But they are attacking very little. Despite having 68% of the ball possession, PSG managed only 11 shots, while firing 12 shots. While PSG only had 2 shots on target, Nice had 7 shots on target. However, Luis Enrique should change his match strategy. and strengthening defenses. Otherwise, it will be very difficult for PSG to stay at the top of the points table.

Your guess is correct, PSG was defeated by Nice in today's match, even this defeat occurred in front of their supporters. I was so disappointed with this result because I placed a bet on PSG, but their game was quite disappointing because they wasted many of the golden opportunities they had. I think Nice was quite lucky at the start of this season because they were able to beat PSG in front of their fans. Yes, PSG first defeat this season and also PSG first defeat under Luis Enrique. Even though PSG dominated possession of the ball in this match, it doesn't mean anything because they lost points in this week's match. This defeat was quite tough for them because they will face Dortmund in the Champions League match this week.
