French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

If they were to play like that constantly, I would say that they can be much more of a threat to many of the stronger teams in Europe as well. So far every team knew that neutralizing Mbappe is the first important key to success. Kolo Muani again didn't score, but once he can play his best on a regular basis, maybe PSG can attack in Europe again. But for that they need to repeat this every week.

Kolo Muani plays the games normal performance and as long as the whole team plays well, that will be no problem. Paris are now on first place in the league, so all things are going well. We will reading a lot more Bad things if it wasnt. No striker scored a goal this game, i mean Mbappe, Kolo Muani and Dembele. Hakim set up two goals, so a defensive player. In this game, the defense had to win the game.

Kolo Muani is playing normal performances is a sketchy statement. It is not completely wrong when you calculate his average performance per game in the past and from this season, but he can do better than that. This guy played in Frankfurt and scored quite a lot and also was creating chances for others a lot, but I thought that the synergy with Dembele and Mbappe will elevate him to the next level personally. That is why I am a bit disappointed because it seems that what he played for Frankfurt is about the best that is to be expected from him. But again I thought there is more and he just needs the right people surrounding him to play better than ever before.

PSG's performance seems consistent to me now...

PSG performance is fluctuating and right now they aren't that bad since Mbappe is playing good and scoring, otherwise they wouldn't be in the first place at all.
When we talk about performance, I wonder know if Lyon will be able to play good again before relegating? That seems to be quite hard apparently even with a new coach. A draw with Metz home? That's the best they can do? The players are suffering a lot psychologically, they don't agree with their coach strategy...

Mbappe role in the PSG squad is indeed very large, which is why management is trying as hard as possible to make him stay for a longer period of time. However, hanging the team fate on Mbappe is not the best way, it will be very risky when he is injured and the team will lose creativity. However Enrique has to face another reality, where there is a lot of speculation in the media regarding the future of his star, as time goes by the PSG squad has to play as a team and reduce dependence on Mbappe.

Lyon are the complete opposite of PSG at the moment, they are fighting to get out of the degradation zone and picked up their first win of the campaign this season. Yes, they haven't won a single win, even though the season has entered week 11. Last season Lyon managed to collect 62 points and finish in 7th place in the standings, the hope now doesn't seem to be much, to get out of the degradation zone and still play in Ligue 1 next season again, it's very realistic.

Anyone who's closely watched Kylian Mbappe this over the past six years can attest to the fact that the the France international is one of the most talented footballers in the world which why I think that there's no club that would want to lose such a gifted player.
Building a team around Mbappe is not a bad idea for Luis Enrique but sole relying on his brilliance for good results o think is be petty for a world class manager like the Spaniard. The Paris Saint Germaine squad is made up of so many quality and world class players and the manager must be able to create an enabling football style that'll bring out their full potentials in other to have a successful spell at the club.

The Lorient-Lens match ended in a draw, just like the Lille-Marseille match. Not even a goal was scored in both matches. Paris SG is the profitable team of the week. They became the leader by beating Montpelier 3-0. Despite their very bad start to the French league, their recent upward trend is promising for the UCL as well.

PSG's position will probably drop again when Nice plays their match against Rennes and manages to win because if they draw or lose then PSG will still be in first place in the standings. PSG has indeed benefited from the poor results obtained by its competitors so that previously it seemed difficult for PSG to rise to the top, now they are starting to find their position well and they must be able to maintain their performance well, as well as in the Champions League, where they managed to beat AC Milan in the middle of the week At home to AC Milan they should at least be able to get one point so that his position in group F will remain safe.

[Weawant]

Monaco winning breath may mean they will be at the second position on the table with a point behind PSG, and a point above Nice, they are currently leading by a goal and the second half of the game just kicked off few minutes back with Monaco playing at home.

Breast isn't weak with their performance so far in the season they have a considerably average performance, with 2d, 2l and 1w in their last five games they could possibly fight for a draw with Monaco but so far I don't see that happening because Monaco definitely wants to scale up the table taking advantage of playing from home especially in this match. Monaco is dominant so far in possession and goal attempts.

PSG performance is fluctuating and right now they aren't that bad since Mbappe is playing good and scoring, otherwise they wouldn't be in the first place at all.

The PSG players have experienced significant development, perhaps this is because they have started to get chemistry with each other under the tutelage of coach Enrique. This victory puts them in first place in the standings, this victory is also important to maintain the team's confidence before facing Milan in the UCL league.

When we talk about performance, I wonder know if Lyon will be able to play good again before relegating? That seems to be quite hard apparently even with a new coach. A draw with Metz home? That's the best they can do? The players are suffering a lot psychologically, they don't agree with their coach strategy...

Seeing Lyon now is like seeing Ajax. It's a shame that these two clubs are Ajax and Lyon, especially for Ajax, which has always been the champion of this club and has also been a factory of star players whose selling points have always been successful for European clubs, but now these two teams have lost their reputation. in a bad situation. I hope Lyon is not relegated from League 1, I hope they recover soon.

[beerlover]

The most important thing if enrique is trying to make PSG will not rely upon mbappe again. Playing without mbappe may become the future of PSG. Enrique is trying to make sure if its club will not be playing as bad as before.
This is why winning any game is really important for PSG at this moment. It's caused by PSG will have no mbappe anymore who can carry the club. So, there's no choice for enrique to make sure its club will able to play consistently without mbappe.
The motivation of PSG's players can be enhanced and their performance can be improved if the team manages to win any of the upcoming games. The upcoming match will be against acmilan which is one of strongest club in serie a.

And he seems to be doing a good job as well, looking at the last game Mbappe was nowhere to be found and he wasn't really there all that much, and they still managed to get an easy win without his contribution.

I think they are getting ready to not have him on the squad anymore, next season he may not be there and the team will be ready for it, they will of course have some more transfers yet again, they are not going to be silent all summer long, but I think the fact is simply just that they are trying to keep playing him, because he is paid so much and keeping him benched would make the fans mad, and then he will leave and they will be getting ready of him leaving while he is still there anyway to get better and be ready.

Monaco winning breath may mean they will be at the second position on the table with a point behind PSG, and a point above Nice, they are currently leading by a goal and the second half of the game just kicked off few minutes back with Monaco playing at home.

Monaco is dominant so far in possession and goal attempts.

Monaco's 2-0 win over Stade Brestois is an expected win. Monaco knows well how to beat Brest; they won four of their last five matches against them, and Monaco is fighting to be well recognized again to compete for the League One title together with PSG after a poor performance in the previous season because PSG and Monaco were the two teams leading the French League One in the past, but the arrival of big players in PSG back then dropped their performance.

Monaco is currently in the second place in the League One table, one point behind PSG after eleven match; Nice is yet to play their match, if they win their match tomorrow, they will go back to the top of the League with one point ahead of PSG, and two points ahead of Monaco.

[rahmad2nd]

Nice can put some pressure on PSG if they consistently win their games, but still PSG knows that they have a very long breath while for Nice one negative pivotal point is enough and they could win several games in a row more likely than PSG. If Nice wants to have a chance to stay where they are, losing is a no-go for as long as possible, but you can see already that not losing is not enough, they have to win their games and not only tie the games. The pressure from PSG will be too high and they can only counter it by winning their games mercilessly.

On the contrary, Nice is now in a pressured position to win their match to regain the ranking currently occupied by PSG temporarily at the top of the standings. which means, three points is the result they must get in this match in order to maintain their consistency and at the same time occupy the top of the standings. refers to the performance of the two teams, which will compete in the next few hours.

This season, the two teams have quite a gap based on ranking. It could be said that Rennes' current performance is not as good as last season. it could be, because Rennes has matches in other competitions. thus affecting their performance in Ligue 1.That is why Rennes is inconsistent when playing their matches in the league.  In fact, they only won 2 of their 10 matches, 6 draws, 2 losses. well, I think Rennes could give the home team some resistance and make it difficult for them to return to the top of the standings. I suspect that Nice will experience difficulties in this match when they host their opposing team.

Referring to the odds, Nice is quite decent. @2.11 and while Rennes @3.70. and this match has the potential to end in a draw. Well, so I think the +05 @1.77 handicap option for Rennes seems quite ideal. because if you choose the 1x2 option, it is too risky with what I predict. So, let's wait because this match will be held in the next hour.

I think Nice will be able to continue their positive trend by winning over Rennes, which means they will return to the top of the Ligue 1 standings. However, this does not mean underestimating Rannes, but looking at the current situation of the two teams, Nice deserves to be at the top, especially as Nice will act as host. The match will definitely be fierce, and Rennes will not just give Nice a way to lead the standings without any resistance.

If Nice fails to get full points then their progress will be stuck in third place in the standings, behind PSG and Monaco. Both of them use a 4-3-3 formation in this match, I don't think Nice will drop points and suffer their first defeat of the season at the hands of Rennes.

Monaco is dominant so far in possession and goal attempts.

Basically Brest is in the top six in the Ligue 1 standings and of course, because Brest position in Ligue 1 is not bad at all. Therefore, I thought beforehand that it maybe not easy for Monaco to beat Brest in this match. But in reality, at least Monaco managed to win with a good score too this match, because Monaco managed to win with a score of 2-0. So ya, because Brest is in the top six i the Ligue 1 standings, at least Brest can minimize the defeat by getting a goal back, but the fact is that Brest still couldn't provide better resistance in the away match against Monaco and that seems quite disappointing too.

[rendravolt]

Another point loss for Lyon...    I don't know why bookies showed Lyon as this big favourite for this game against Metz. Even though it was a home game too Lyon were still in horrible shape. They were literally the worst team in the league with their form. But seeing those odds made me think about whether it would be a sign for Lyon to finally get a win.

But no. It wasn't like that at all. They could have even lost the game if that equalizer didn't come in the last 10 minutes. Even Lacazette can't focus on his game this season. He was maybe the best player of the team last season. They can really relegate if they go on like this but the season is still long.

It looks like Lyon can't be helped this season and they still haven't won so far. It is natural that the bookies favor Lyon, apart from being the host, their opponent is also the promotion team this season, namely Metz. However, what happened was unexpected, even Lyon was unable to beat Metz and had to be willing to share 1 point with a draw. It seems like there is no chance for Lyon to escape the relegation zone and even if there were, it would have to be a miracle to get them through this bad result. Moreover, if you look at the difference between Lyon and Metz, it is only 6 points and Fabio Grosso, who was appointed as Lyon's new coach some time ago, was also unable to produce good results.

PSG's performance seems consistent to me now. Although they were inconsistent in the early part of the season, they are now performing consistently in both the Champions League and Ligue 1. PSG are unbeaten in their last five Ligue 1 matches and have picked up full points in four. Looking at their performance in the last 5 matches, we should not have any doubts about their consistency. Luis Enrique may have got the trick on how to get the best performance out of this team and he is applying that trick which is why the PSG team is getting one success after another. PSG are consistent now and if they play according to plan, they will be very consistent in the upcoming matches as well.

PSG have improved after they didn't have a convincing start to the season. I know it's too easy for people to say something bad even though PSG only got 1 defeat and 3 draws in 10 matches, but the fact is that PSG can still lead the standings even if Nice has a chance to take it again today.

I just wonder why Ousmane Dembélé is still having trouble scoring goals after having 10 appearances. Ousmane Dembélé has 3 assists so far, but he has not scored a single goal so far in 13 appearances including in the Champions League. His performance was good, but however Ousmane Dembélé doesn't seem like the typical player who is hungry for goals. Kylian Mbappé represents his team on the top scorer table with 10 goals in 10 appearances, he has also scored 2 goals in 3 appearances in the Champions League so far.

Les Monégasques performance has elevated them to the level of a competitive opponent for PSG. Brest is tenacious, but they are unable to counteract Monaco's pressing energy in today's encounter. Monaco's stats in 11 league games are 7W 2D 2L, and I believe they are working to enhance to be in prime performing shape. Monaco was able to take the lead in both halves, scoring 1-0 in the first half and doubling the lead in the second. Adolf Hütter, headcoach of Monaco, shared his core analysis for winning games and he will continue to fight for his priorities this season.

[swogerino]

The win of Monaco and Nice now is making the French Ligue 1 very interesting and competitive and honestly I did not Nice to win tonight,they have not been that consistent usually in their campaigns,sure they have always been a good team of Ligue 1 just not quite enough to fight for the title in a consistent way.Now they have 25 points with near half of the league games near completed as just some 7-8 games have remained until we end the half of the season.

Monaco on the other hand despite being there,they have made some errors which if they didn't they would be at over 30 points right now leading comfortably.Paris is back and we know when they start doing seriously they are the strongest contender,let's see how it ends.

[Weawant]

Nice winning Rennes regardless of the red card they got was actually a good one they still got away with three points and were able to continually maintain  their top position on the table with 25 points, though Rennes were ahead with possession, they Lost.

By statistics it was clear Rennes did performed well but couldn't win the home team because I think they were better and it could have been really embarrassing they lost at home to an average team while at the top of the table, Nice is ahead of PSG with a point of which of PSG wins their next game they will most be ahead of Nice but if Nice wins their next match again, they race continues. This is actually bringing the fun back because we now have what to keep in anticipation as it's no longer business as usual.

After beating Brest in this match, now Monaco stays in the race and there is not a huge gap between them and teams on the top of the table like Nice and PSG.
Monaco had everything they wanted to get in this match and had a close race with Brest but Monaco used the opportunities much better than this team.
But I still think Monaco lost many points during this season in the games we saw from them so far otherwise they could even have a better situation than this.

The win of Monaco and Nice now is making the French Ligue 1 very interesting and competitive and honestly I did not Nice to win tonight,they have not been that consistent usually in their campaigns,sure they have always been a good team of Ligue 1 just not quite enough to fight for the title in a consistent way.Now they have 25 points with near half of the league games near completed as just some 7-8 games have remained until we end the half of the season.

Monaco on the other hand despite being there,they have made some errors which if they didn't they would be at over 30 points right now leading comfortably.Paris is back and we know when they start doing seriously they are the strongest contender,let's see how it ends.

Great to see that there is a very strong competition in the French Ligue 1 on who will go home with the league title at the end of the season. The league was before regarded by many as a "one club" league but with what we've seen so far from other serious contenders , I think it's absolutely safe to say that Paris Saint Germaine will have to stand on their feet if they must win than to relax with the belief that they're gonna win the league title at the end regardless of whichever way the chose to perform.

Yeah, by looking at the current standings it is quite interesting to wait for how the continuation will happen later because indeed these 3 clubs are still quite consistent even if you look at the current standings their points are only 1 point away from each position.


The advantage for Nice and Monaco at this time they do not need to be bothered with many schedules unlike PSG who still have to undergo competition in the Champions League but the problem for Monaco is actually last season also at the beginning of their season like this but they slowly lost momentum which made them have to be willing to get out of the Champions League zone, Europa League and Conference league.
At the moment there is great hope for Monaco and Nice, especially for Nice, who have still never tasted defeat but the middle of the season later this could make the consistency of several clubs disappear including Nice and Monaco.

Yes, I want fierce competition in this tournament instead of it being arranged to belong to 1 big team. I mean, I hope French Ligue 1 will develop into a fiercely competitive league like the English Premier League. Thus, club fans will be even more excited when their team has a chance to win the championship. There will be many surprises instead of predictable results, and the best part is that top stars and coaches will be keeping an eye on this tournament. That will help take the game to the next level.

Nice winning Rennes regardless of the red card they got was actually a good one they still got away with three points and were able to continually maintain  their top position on the table with 25 points, though Rennes were ahead with possession, they Lost.

Nice has got less goal attemps but this club is able making some chances converted into the goals. Look at how rennes was scoring the first goal before it was getting a red card. I aws happy caused by rennes was also getting a red card probably 10 minutes after nice's red card.
From my perspective, it appears that things are reverting back to the way they were, with the winner of the game playing a significant role in this transition. Rennes loses the game against nice which is very good result for nice.

I was expecting more but getting 2-0 is good enough since i was taking 1x2 bet for nice. Nice is still continuing its good performance at this moment. I hope this is going to be last till the end of season.
PSG will be in a difficult situation caused by the won of nice is a pressure for PSG. It's so nice to see how nice is consistently defending when it has gotten a red card.
Nice needs to be appreciated. This appears to be an easy bet for bettors. The odds was quite good before the match.
