French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[rendravolt]

Today Lens will face Metz at home and if in this match Lens still can't win that would be outrageous. Metz is a promoted Ligue 1 team this season and they are even better than Lens by collecting 5 points from the 4 matches they have played. If you look at the H2H of these two teams, it is surprising that they are equally strong and balanced in several meetings.

I don't think that Metz will be a strong enough opponent this time for Lens and they have to be careful if they don't want Metz to steal 3 points from this away match. Apart from that, I still can't predict who will win, but it should be that Lens will win this time because they have been down for too long and of course they have evaluated all the mistakes they made.

By the way Luis Enrique even made a statement after the match like he was really satisfied with the team performance there. This must really be a joke.    Because how can you be satisfied with that defensive performance for example? Nice could have even beaten you by a gap of a few goals. You shouldn't be talking like that in this situation.

I can't imagine how bad PSG would be without Mbappe even in the Ligue 1. I don't want to mention the Champions League because I guess it would be much worse for them.

Enrique is forced to say such things, this is called putting on a good face when playing poorly. In general, of course, it is difficult to understand what he could have liked because, despite having less possession of the ball, Nice made more productive actions and their victory is completely logical.
In 4 days Dortmund will play here and if PSG continues to play poorly, then Enrique does not have such a great chance of holding out until the winter

What an unexpected result from PSG match yesterday that surprisingly they lose from Nice with narrow score and this is poor result even last season when Galtier train this team he can do more better than this and without Messi and Neymar PSG seems unable to performing well and the players who expected can be the replacement of them such as Dembele or Goncalo Ramos still haven't showing their best performance

PSG experienced a bad start to the season. Mbappè was able to score 2 goal in the 27th and 87th minute. If it weren't for Mbappè, PSG might not be anything.
Its a shame, even though I hope PSG would win the match this time knowing the chances were bigger, but it turns out my prediction was wrong.


Next week PSG will compete against Borrusia Dortmund at home. Hopefully this time Luis Enrique will strengthen his club to compete against Borrusia Dortmund in the upcoming match. I can not prediction this match because even though PSG has a bigger chance than Borussia Dortmund, its not likely they will lose again.

Lens must win tonight for their squad to find confidence again, considering they will also be playing at home, they should be more enthusiastic about securing the three points. But as you said head to head the both teams are equally strong and balanced, and Metz is better at the moment rather than Lens, so I think Metz will try their best to get points on matchday 5 tonight. Maybe the bad result is a draw for Lens, but if Lens lose it will be very bad for them this season, because in 5 matches they still haven't been able to get full points.

Its a shame, even though I hope PSG would win the match this time knowing the chances were bigger, but it turns out my prediction was wrong.

That's a total chaos for PSG. Nice were more effective although they started the season with 3 draws but this time they scored more goals than they did when they won vs Strasbourg.
Even though Mbappe is leading the score board with 7 goals but PSG is shaming themselves each match. I wonder know what they could do without him.

Next week PSG will compete against Borrusia Dortmund at home. Hopefully this time Luis Enrique will strengthen his club to compete against Borrusia Dortmund in the upcoming match. I can not prediction this match because even though PSG has a bigger chance than Borussia Dortmund, its not likely they will lose again.  [/left]

Both Dortmund and PSG aren't doing well in their domestic league.. It is hard to expect how this random game will end. This while PSG have Mbappe of course. If he will not play, I will go with Dortmund.

Luis Enrique was the manager of Spanish football team manager mostly played on the forward and middle position.He is train his player in the good way and also giving the good spirit after some loss to their player.This way of management was good for the team in the long run.It may be seems joke to other people,but they made a positive approach towards the future.The team may scored low,but mark my words this manager alone take care of the entire team for next 5 years.This Luis had won heart of mine by his positive approach towards their team performance.The other manager should handle the loss like this.

[hahay]

When last season PSG failed in the Champions League and many blamed the performance and contribution of Messi and Neymar, but after Messi and Neymar left the fact that PSG actually became worse. Because anyway, if Messi and Neymar are still at PSG at this time with the coach being Enrique, then of course I am sure that PSG's performance will be better and maybe it will also have good results in the Champions League. But unfortunately, all that is gone because PSG is only helped by the presence of Mbappe in the squad, while the performance of other players in each line is very weak. Thus, PSG does not have a good balance on each line. So no wonder PSG is worse this season and even, to get the Ligue 1 title alone seems to be difficult for PSG this season.

[Swordsoffreedom]

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.

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 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.

Overrated coach and overrated club. People always called this club will be winning the group stage of UCL while i have opposite opinion regarding it. Losing when host the game is a shame for PSG.
The lost against nice was a slap back to the reality for PSG. PSG has been only making three shots on target which is far low compared with nice even though the club was always losing the ball possession against PSG.
People said that PSG was the better team in the most part but the result is far from there. PSG was not even able scoring the third goal to save its lives.
PSG had control over the ball but this club was unable in maximizing it. What a shitty performance from this club.

PSG was showing awful performance. The club play like shit.

Coach Luis enrique has yet to stabilize the team.  After winning two matches, the team lost against Nice. PSG is now third in the points table. And now PSG is 2 points behind Monaco. If Monaco can win their next match they will go 5 points ahead of PSG. And Monaco are in very good form. And it won't be easy for PSG to close the points gap with Monaco. PSG squad is strong but their performances are erratic. The coach is still trying to stabilize the team. And PSG's attack is still quite weak. PSG's overall performance has been poor due to weakness in attack. Coach Enrique should change his match strategy. PSG is not able to get good result in this match strategy.

[TastyChillySauce00]

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.

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

By the way Luis Enrique even made a statement after the match like he was really satisfied with the team performance there. This must really be a joke.    Because how can you be satisfied with that defensive performance for example? Nice could have even beaten you by a gap of a few goals. You shouldn't be talking like that in this situation.

Did you believe it? I saw that as non sense excuse by him. PSG has spent a lot of money to buy a lot of great players but it was losing against mediocre teams which are terrible result.
I thought that if nice would be steal 1 point from PSG but the result has surprised me to see nice stolen three points from PSG.

I can't imagine how bad PSG would be without Mbappe even in the Ligue 1. I don't want to mention the Champions League because I guess it would be much worse for them.

PSG can do nothing without him in the club. PSG was always relying on him at this moment. I can't even imagine the club to play without him.
Im sure PSG will become a medriocre club without him. PSG is not a favorite club to win the group anymore. Its poor performance needs to be solved.

PSG's humiliation by Nice was very surprising, this result was their first defeat at the start of the season. Mbappe has a heavy burden to bear for PSG after the departure of Messi and Neymar. In terms of creating opportunities, PSG really had no other choice even though they controlled the ball more than 70%. Dembele, Kolo Moani and Goncalo Ramos have yet to show significant progress during their arrival.

But that's the good thing, this will make Ligue 1 become more unpredictable like in Serie A, I don't want to see a complete domination of PSG in Ligue 1 anymore. Mbappe always solo carrying PSG, this will make opponents become easier to stop PSG, all they need is put an eye on Mbappe. Unlike the last season if they want to stop Mbappe, there's Messi, if they want to stop Messi, there's Neymar.

Next week PSG will compete against Borrusia Dortmund at home. Hopefully this time Luis Enrique will strengthen his club to compete against Borrusia Dortmund in the upcoming match. I can not prediction this match because even though PSG has a bigger chance than Borussia Dortmund, its not likely they will lose again. 

I didn't watch this match, but the result was beyond my expectations. referring to several reviews I read, as well as match statistics. It seems like PSG showed consistency problems in this match. Even though PSG dominated the game, PSG's mistakes at the back benefited the opposing team, Nice. Also, it is very clear that Goncalo Ramos was almost invisible in this match, he even underperformed. playing 65 minutes, he only had one shot off target, worse, he only had 17 touches. different from Kolo Muani, even though he only got a few touches, one chance, and contributed one assist to a goal. Even in terms of opportunities, Nice got it more than PSG.

It is clear that PSG's attack line still has problems. Goncalo Ramos, has not been able to play with his best performance. So, Asenssio's absence is a big loss for Luis Enrique's squad. As a result, the match ended with a score of 2-3. PSG scored two goals, only from Kylian Mbappe.
Talking about the Champions League match, next week Luis Enrique must prepare his squad much better when his team faces Dortmund. I think Enrique has to rotate Goncalo Ramos, because Asenssio still has a leg injury, Enrique has to prepare Randal Kolo Muani. because, there is no choice if you force players who are not performing at their best.

For the Ligue 1 competition to be more competitive, this is good, but PSG is a big team that has quite strong finances and they are trying hard to build this team with or without Mbappe.
If the PSG team's situation gets worse, of course the top players won't want to be on this team anymore, especially since Mbappe is interested in many other teams.
Now only Mbappe is contributing greatly to the team and rumors of his move are getting bigger, maybe the longest he will stay at PSG until the end of the season until his contract expires, but with the strength that PSG has I am sure this team will be able to rise again and bring in other quality players.

This defeat is a kind of warning to them, because if they continue like this then they will lose the next defeat. Playing at home with that kind of game, then I say that Nice deserved to win this match. Mbappe can't win by himself, they are a team and good teamwork is needed in a club, and I don't see that in Paris Saint Germain.

PSG can do nothing without him in the club. PSG was always relying on him at this moment. I can't even imagine the club to play without him.

Although I find this a bit intriguing to hear, the facts on the ground are not that different from what you said. Paris Saint Germain is not strong as a team, I mean when they still rely on one or two players, then it already gives a negative impression for this club in the future. They will definitely not always be with the players they rely on, like Neymar and Messi who then left this season. Likewise with Mbappe, who most likely this season is the last season for him in Paris Saint Germain uniform. This must be addressed, how long will they be like this?

[tusandii]

While everyone is talking about the disappointment of PSG losing to a small club, I will be more concerned with predicting Rennes' match with Lille.

This match Rennes will host Lille at Roazhon Park even though home advantage is always promising but not for Rennes when they have to play against Lille which has always been an obstacle for Rennes to win this match because in the history of matches between these two clubs Lille has always been able to beat Rennes while this club has not been able to. won even at home so wouldn't hesitate to bet on Lille.
The first surprise was made by a young player from the defense line who surprisingly scored the first score when I wrote this even though Leny Yoro is a young player who doesn't have much experience but being at the Lille club could give him a good career and I would predict that Lille won with a score of 1-2 for Lille.

PSG's defeat at home was very embarrassing because PSG was able to control the ball so much but was unable to score more goals apart from the only two goals scored by Mbappe. The Nice players were truly extraordinary in taking advantage of the moment to create accurate kicks into the PSG goal so that Nice was able to win by only scoring three goals. So the match was really embarrassing for the PSG team because they were able to be beaten by Nice in front of their own supporters.

Nice delivered a surprise victory against PSG in Paris. Nice and Strasbourg often pose a challenge to big teams in France, and PSG experienced this firsthand. Despite Mbappe scoring two goals, it wasn't enough to ensure victory for PSG. The reality is that Mbappe can't bear the burden of PSG's success all on his own. Therefore, Luis Enrique's side faced their first defeat of the season.

PSG's attack is quite weak. And Enrique has yet to solidify the attack. Also I am not satisfied with Luis Enrique's match strategy. He is looking to implement match tactics similar to La Liga in Ligue 1. He wants to control the match by keeping the ball in possession. But he failed. PSG has 70% ball possession in this match. But they made only 12 shots, of which only 3 were on target. On the other hand, despite having only 30% ball possession, Nice players made 14 shots. And there were 8 shots on target. PSG's performance will not improve if they do not change their tactics in such matches. In Ligue 1 you have to play fast and attack a lot.

The biggest thing is that the PSG team has no balance. The team does not notice any great understanding among the players. This creates a great problem with the team's attack build-up. I think PSG will have bigger problems ahead.

PSG's attack is very weak and they cannot connect. In the second goal, they conceded a goal from the counter due to a passing failed in the attack. A lot of mistakes were made while attacking in defense. PSG looks very weak this season. I think Mbappe should have left this team a lot, midfielders and wingers are needed in the forward line to connect him better. In fact, if they can get along better with Dembele, they can achieve better results. Lens' magnificent gameplay detail should not be overlooked. Moffi is a very cool-headed and very high-quality player. He didn't even care about PSG's defense when he made the assist.
