French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[Republikcoin.com]

Mbappe even turned down Saudi Arabia indeed. It isn't about money for Mbappe from now on. Of course he cares about money a lot but he is already making tons of it at PSG.

From now on I would just expect him to choose wherever he would like to feel himself more comfortable and motivated. I don't know whether it would be PSG at this point. Because if they still continue to be not competitive enough in the Champions League I think he would have second thoughts. Maybe Real Madrid and at least one team from the English Premier League will make a contract offer to him in January. Let's see how Mbappe will answer.

His decision regarding continuing his career at PSG is always interesting to look forward to, after the drama at the start of this season and after that he has never made any statement and there has also been no decision to extend his contract, making his fans very curious as well as elite clubs who are very interested in being able to buy him.
The media always links him with Real Madrid but the club has clarified that there is no agreement whatsoever with the player so which club will be his next career destination is still a mystery, although it does not rule out the possibility that he will remain at PSG with the club owner offering something more big or big changes at PSG so that this club can be better in the champions league because Mbappe really wants to be able to get a title from a more prestigious competition than just Ligue 1.

At the start of the season, Mbappe had problems with PSG management, although this has now begun to subside and Mbappe has played and contributed greatly to the PSG team.
For Mbappe's career development, it is very unlikely that he will want to remain at PSG, it is clear that there will be no significant career development because the PSG team is not able to compete fiercely on the European stage and what is more, this season the PSG team's performance is decreasing which indicates that there is no progress. better than the team for the future.
He was linked with Real Madrid because the Spanish giants' interest in Mbappe was quite big, and I think Mbappe also wants his career to be better there, so in my opinion we are just waiting for time for Mbappe to be in the Real Madrid uniform.

Maybe Real Madrid and at least one team from the English Premier League will make a contract offer to him in January. Let's see how Mbappe will answer.

For a player like Mbappe, money was never suppose to be his problem checking from the deal he signed with PSG when joining them. He would only be greedy if he had joined the Saudi league when he is still much needed in Europe and big teams wanting him to come and join them. Right now, he his in the last season of his current deal which I am sure he is not going to renew it. We just have to wait to see the team that will come for him. Real Madrid who are the most preferred club to sign him have felt reluctant about him this days and will want him to push the offer to join them himself and not vice versa.

Mbappe was still young. No reason for him to be greedy to get as much money as possible. Mbappe has been also getting bunch of money from PSG. This means if mbappe just need to add more achievement. It will help him a lot.
Mbappe needs to go to the club that can push him to the another level. Staying in PSG will not make him able to be as good as two GOAT messi and ronaldo. Mbappe needs to go to the real madrid to dig his potential there.

Madrid will able to develophim to be as good as ronaldo but let's see what's gonna be his choice. We are still a few months away from the end of his contract. Mbappe will try to decide which club that will become his net home.
Im fully believing if mbappe will go to the real madrid. There will be no a better place than real madrid at this moment. Mbappe can go there to explore the potential of himself.
Ancellotti will help him to do that like bellingham did.

To be honest if the domestic league of french was not comparable with EPL. PSG was the only strong club in that league while other clubs are having low valuation. That means they are low quality clubs.
This is a sense season for PSG to dominate the competition till this time. That's pretty much the same like bundesliga but it's a bit better now.

Throughout the new season, PSG led the provisional class. But looking at NICE statistics, it turns out that until week 11 only they have never lost. PSG lost 1 match. With the current conditions, PSG is still a strong team for the domestic league, but for Europe they still have difficulty competing with big teams. In addition, I heard that PSG's young midfielder Zaire-Emery has an injury. He is a young player with potential. He has made 2 goals and 5 assists.

Yes indeed, Nice are still unbeaten so far this season and in fact, Nice are the only team at the moment who have conceded only a handful of goals. But ya, even so, Nice does not have a high productivity in making goals and thus, it will still be difficult for Nice to be able to stay at the top of the Ligue 1 standings. Because after all, the fact is that PSG has also managed to return to the top of the standings at this moment and thus, PSG will certainly be able to maintain it to get the Ligue 1 trophy again this season. Because for other trophies, it still seems difficult for PSG, especially about the Champion League which is still far from expectations.

Nice and Girona are two surprise teams playing in two difficult leagues this year. Nice, which wants to take the lead ahead of PSG, has truly achieved great success. It is not easy to achieve this success in the league because you have a difficult opponent like PSG. There is only a 1 point difference between them and Nice, as the only unbeaten team, may be able to surpass PSG.

PSG vs Monaco game is coming up... Interestingly, bookmakers give a low odds of 1.5 for PSG to win... Although Monaco are now in third place in the standings, if they win, they will have the same number of points as PSG... I think it will be a difficult match for PSG...

It is not easy to achieve this success in the league because you have a difficult opponent like PSG. There is only a 1 point difference between them and Nice, as the only unbeaten team, may be able to surpass PSG.

Nice took advantage of the fact that PSG did not look very confident at the beginning of the season, Enrique had to rebuild the team, and the team had to adapt to the strategy of the new coach, these transition stages are always difficult for the team. But now we see that PSG have returned to their usual game and regained their leadership in Ligue 1 even faster than I expected.

In the next round, PSG will host Monaco and they are the clear favorites in this match, it is quite possible that PSG will no longer give up the lead until the end of the championship, but will only increase their advantage.

The PSG-Monaco match will also be very difficult. PSG are a strong team and they can beat Monaco. I'm sure Monaco is working on PSG with full concentration. It will be a match that directly affects the top ranks of the league. Monaco will try to catch PSG and prevent them from getting ahead. An exciting weekend awaits us all in League 1.

Ligue One title will uniformly go back to the real Champs and it's crystal clear the team that will lifts the crown this season. PSG will not hold back but strive harder for main results this season. Paris Saint-Germain are coming to accumulate every solid points against their oppositions this season, there's completely nothing exciting about the match, we will formerly watch how Les Parisiens will dominate the game fulltime and put their opponents under heavy pressure. There's nothing difficult about the game, PSG have the basic requirements to defeats any potential team this season.

It seems so. Emery will be out this season and he will not able to play due to the ankle injury but PSG can stil have a good replacement for him. This may be a tough game for PSG soon.
1.5 is quite good consider PSG will be playing at home against monaco but i'd choosen double chance since this match is quite risky for me. It's caused by i can't even try to make sure which team that i should pick it.

The odds is very small for double chance but this is less risky for my multi bet rather than picking PSG. Mbappe may become the main reason why PSG will able to win against monaco but im not really confidence with it.
Monaco or PSG. That's the best choice to make sure mymulti will not be collapse due to the lose suffered by PSG or monaco in upcoming match.

I hope mbappe will be playing since the first half.

[slaman29]

I didn't start betting on Monaco yet this season after my personal huge disappointment last year with them.

But 6.6x now playing vs PSG, who only depend on Mbappe, is this the right time to go in on them?

It would be magic for them to beat PSG, though sadly Nice will be the one to benefit most, but I don't care. Anybody except PSG

[tiCeR]

There are still 27 games left which is a total of 81 points to be played for. The maximum I found that someone ended up in the relegation zone was 40 points. It usually is around 32-35 points and there are some years when it was much less than that. But let's assume 40 points would be the safe aim to go for here.

They would need 33 more points out of the last 27 games. That is like winning 9 games and 6 draws. This doesn't sound impossible to me and they also have a lot of home games to come as well. When you look at the table at a specific moment, it could apparently look worse than it is. Though it is bad of course, but when they adjust their goal to remaining in Ligue 1, which they have probably already done, then they know what to do and see that this can be done.

Lyon is gradually becoming a relegation team and I know for sure that they won't want that for themselves, their recent games have been so poor on their side and it seems like there's a huge work to be done, they have 27 games to go and they have to secure at least 40 points to be out of the relegation zone, and I believe their coach should've been using the break to figure out how to get the team moving upwards.

 Hopefully, they'd be able to play well a bit, win some games and draw some and also avoid much losses too because every loss will affect their chance. Extra efforts and determination needs to be put to the team and they've got face the reality of the battle they've got at hand, no laziness or backwardness should be entertained too.

But I think nobody here talked to the team or how did you find out that they don't want to be in the relegation zone? Because you said that you know for sure.

40 points is an objective that would (almost) guarantee them to stay in the league as it is a threshold that I think has barely been reached in the history of the league by a team to inevitably stay in the league. But still they should better play it safe than be sorry later on.

Given that Lyon was one of the strongest French clubs in the past, their goal must be to get some restructuring going very soon. They have been more in the midfield of the table in the last few years and the last time they finished top three was in 2018/19.

PSG vs Monaco game is coming up... Interestingly, bookmakers give a low odds of 1.5 for PSG to win... Although Monaco are now in third place in the standings, if they win, they will have the same number of points as PSG... I think it will be a difficult match for PSG...

Yes, this is indeed a quite difficult match for PSG, indeed Monaco is not an easy opponent and so far Monaco has been PSG's strong rival in the domestic league. If PSG can perform well at home, at least PSG will be at the top for a while, PSG has a good record in In the last five matches, PSG has been able to win the match without losing. I think PSG will win consistently in the next match, but PSG remains alert because Monaco is trying to steal three points from PSG if PSG is careless. This match is quite difficult to predict and maybe Monaco won't. Let PSG win, they will definitely try to get a draw rather than losess.

It's definitely not going to be an easy match for Paris Saint Germain, even though they will be playing at home. Monaco is a club that can really beat Paris Saint Germain, especially if Paris Saint Germain have a decline in performance like they showed at the beginning of the season.
They must also realize something like this, because after all Monaco cannot be underestimated with their performances that tend to be good until week 12.
If Paris Saint Germain make a lot of mistakes and lose a lot of focus, I'm sure they will lose to Monaco in this match.

Brest actually starting this season with good performance because at the beginning of league they got 4 wins from 6 matches and it makes them can able reach to top 3 at that time but recently Brest performance was decline because they were failed to win in the last 5 matches in Ligue 1 and this weekend Brest will fight against Montpellier and according to the head to head statistics Montpellier is hard opponent for Brest because in the last 2 meetings Montpellier can able to win with big scores even last year Montpellier was humiliate Brest with scores 7-0

However about team conditions currently some of big European clubs were paying attention to Montpelier striker Akor Adams but i have no wonder about that because this season he has showing impressive performance by scores 7 goals in Ligue 1 and for this match it is confirmed Akor Adams will be available and Montpellier has good chances to win the match considering they have good records while playing at home against Brest and Montpellier has odds @2.27

Yes, Brest in their last five matches could not win, maybe because they were against some tough teams. So it makes sense if they can't get full points, because they had difficulties in their last few matches. Most recently Brest couldn't scored against Monaco, and lost one player due to a red card.
That's right, in the next match Brest will play against Montpellier. And yes, it seems like Montpellier will have an advantage in that match, besides they will be playing at home. Also based on head to head, Montpellier is difficult opponent for Brest. So indeed, the home team might be able to secure full points with a winning.

[Awaklara]

Yes, this is indeed a quite difficult match for PSG, indeed Monaco is not an easy opponent and so far Monaco has been PSG's strong rival in the domestic league. If PSG can perform well at home, at least PSG will be at the top for a while, PSG has a good record in In the last five matches, PSG has been able to win the match without losing.

This match is quite difficult to predict and maybe Monaco won't. Let PSG win, they will definitely try to get a draw rather than losess.

Monaco is not a weak team. They once beat PSG 3-1, and it is not impossible that this will happen again in the second meeting. even though PSG is playing at home, I hope they remain at their best.
I don't doubt PSG's performance, especially their very productive front line. PSG dominates in Ligue 1. But Monaco is also a productive team, they scored 25 goals in 12 matches. The meeting between the two will be interesting, although several bookies' offers still favor PSG.

[hahay]

The PSG-Monaco match will also be very difficult. PSG are a strong team and they can beat Monaco. I'm sure Monaco is working on PSG with full concentration. It will be a match that directly affects the top ranks of the league. Monaco will try to catch PSG and prevent them from getting ahead. An exciting weekend awaits us all in League 1.

Ligue One title will uniformly go back to the real Champs and it's crystal clear the team that will lifts the crown this season. PSG will not hold back but strive harder for main results this season. Paris Saint-Germain are coming to accumulate every solid points against their oppositions this season, there's completely nothing exciting about the match, we will formerly watch how Les Parisiens will dominate the game fulltime and put their opponents under heavy pressure. There's nothing difficult about the game, PSG have the basic requirements to defeats any potential team this season.

I think it's not just about competition in the race for the Ligue 1 title this season, because it looks like PSG has another mission too of course to take revenge. Because after all, the fact is that last season Monaco managed to beat and hold PSG to a draw, so in their last three meetings in Ligue 1 the fact is that PSG always failed to beat Monaco. So yes, with factors like that, of course PSG will not hold back and moreover, PSG's key players were not injured in the international match yesterday. So of course, playing at home and still needing points to strengthen their position at the top of the current Ligue 1 standings, then of course PSG will still do well to beat Monaco in this weekend match.

This thing about starting the season pretty cool and then declining at a particular point is quite becoming a norm in football and it’s worrisom to know most of these teams have no idea on consistency, maintaining winning streaks at least is a sort of confidence booster, In the case of Brest, well they’re an average team and nothing more than this was expected, now they’re getting defeated and struggling to get at least a point out from an encounter.

This weekend they face one of their worst nightmare who over the past 3 seasons has been a hard nut to crack and i think same will repeat itself over the weekend as Montpellier will have the best moments and fun  of this encounter, I think it’s safe to put your money on Montpellier to win or draw this game.

Also based on head to head, Montpellier is difficult opponent for Brest. So indeed, the home team might be able to secure full points with a winning.

Even though Brest had quite a hard time in the last match, they actually also made it quite difficult for their opponents, such as against PSG and Lille, they (Brest) only lost narrowly. Apart from that, if Brest is able to improve its defense to be better then that could be something that can be highlighted and it will also be easier to maintain a lead from conceding.

Actually, the next match, Montpellier vs Brest, is at the same level and it is almost difficult to differentiate because the depth of the squad is even. But indeed, even though Montpellier's position is still below Brest, it could be a positive trend for Montpellier so that they can beat Brest again in an away match. Moreover, in the two meetings last season, Montperllier always won by a landslide against Brest, but for betting I would prefer to bet on the over 2.5 result considering that both teams are targeting full points.

If the game was few weeks ago I would say Monaco chance is higher but right now PSG is doing fine and should win the game. They are playing home additionally. Odds in bookies are in favour of PSG. We are talking about 1.4 odds for PSG to win the game vs 6.6 for Monaco. Only Nice - Toulouse and Lille - Metz games have higher odds of 7.6 and 10.5 respectively.
Obviously, this will depend from how ready PSG is and how fit Mbappe will be in that game.

If the standings reflected the strength of the teams, then PSG would be in first place, then about 6-7 places would be empty and only then would there be Nice and Monaco.
As for the coefficient, I am not surprised and consider it profitable - in fact, Monaco has only 2 days to collect the players after the international games and go to Paris. They are in a very awkward position.

Im concerning about the line up. The line up will determine how big the possibility owned by PSG to win the game. In fact, missing emery would not be a big problem for PSG as there was other player who can replace him at this moment.
The only problem for PSG if monaco is also in its best performance too. It may be a bit difficult for PSG to win against monaco. The draw is also possible to happen but mbappe may able to make the difference for the upcoming match.

Enrique needs start to put his hope for mbappe. When the club finds itself in a position where winning the game seems impossible, there is only one person who can change the situation. that's it mbappe.
Even though he has not yet won UCL but people called him as GOAT. 

Can't wait to see mbappe show another great performance like when he was playing for france. Mbappe is on fire right now. He is ready to ruin monaco at parc de princes.
Making two goals are good enough for mbappe during the game against monaco.
