French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[arimamib]

PSG's team harmony is very good this year and it's getting better and better. I don't know if they will be there this year, but in 2-3 years, with the protection of their young players and 1-2 reinforcements to the left wing + midfield, they can win a champions league title. Although they were good in the past years, they were not favourites for the Champions League because they did not have a clear team game, but this season they have overcome that. It's not usual for Ligue 1, but it was a match with a premier league tempo, albeit rare. Psg this year is made up of players who fight like soldiers.

PSG's team harmony has undoubtedly improved since last month, and their recent performances have demonstrated their potential to dominate Ligue 1 again and challenge for UCL Tittle. The team's cohesion and fighting spirit are evident, and with the right reinforcements, they could stay a big force in europe for years.

Their progress under Christophe Galtier has been impressive, and the team has adopted a more focused and determined approach. The addition of experienced players like Vitinha and Nuno Mendes has also settled to the squad, providing depth and versatility. While there are still some areas for improvement, particularly in terms of tactical consistency and defensive solidity, PSG's current trajectory suggests that they are on the right path to achieving their top targets.

PSG is very strong in Ligue 1 and the victory over Monaco has put them in a fairly comfortable position as leaders of the standings. This season it seems very difficult for the teams in the top 4 to put pressure on PSG and this was seen when PSG was able to beat Monaco with a big score. Nice, which has the opportunity to stick closely to PSG, will compete in tomorrow match against Toulouse and if we look at this, this is an easy match for Nice because they have been quite consistent so far. But their efforts to compete with PSG in the title race this season are unlikely to be too strong because PSG still has a stronger team depth and has a strong mentality in maintaining their dominance in Ligue 1.

Luis Enrique highly praised the performance of his team when they managed to beat Monaco with a big score where Psg had shown strong cooperation and did not depend on one player to achieve victory. Mbapee and Ramos have really blended in so far, they have become ideal partners to be able to bring PSG to many trophies this season. In the upcoming match, PSG strength will be tested again by Newcastle United because this match will be a big match that will determine their fate in the Champions League.

Finally, not any team can't stop PSG keep comfortable on the top standings after winning over from AS Monaco and right now PSG lead behind four points left from Nice with remaining one match. Actually AS Monaco have good started in this season but they can't consistent and dropped to 3rd position standing although ever manage top position place. Left Nice as pressure team for PSG regarding on position place left 4 points and next match against Toulouse is opportunity will make close one point left and keep pressure PSG until the end of this season.

PSG have forget their winning match in domestic league because they have more important match in Champion League against Newcastle United, if want qualify to next round PSG must winning against Newcastle and Luis Henrique will give hope for PSG fans how to get good result in Champion League as most dreaming tittles.

By the way, now Enrique can focus more on the Champions League group phase to host the match against Newcastle later.

Now the focus is against Newcastle. PSG is also playing at home and I think they will get the win as planned. Both teams won their respective matches this week, Newcastle beat Chelsea with a score of 4-1, while PSG beat Monaco 5-2.

Yep, the focus must now be immediately shifted to the match against Newcastle in the Champions League group stage because this is important for PSG's survival if they still want to qualify for the next phase.
In the first leg they underestimated Newcastle at St. James Park which made them lose quite heavily and now they must be able to avenge that with 3 points especially for the second leg this time PSG played home.
If in the end they lose again even though the chance to qualify is still there for PSG but the steps are a little more difficult so they must be able to get 3 points in a big match again next week. PSG must not make a mistake let alone underestimate Newcastle again because Isak is also back and surely Newcastle are ready to bite in the second leg this time.

Luis Enrique has prepared this match carefully and PSG will definitely play tough at home. PSG's victory against Monaco has shown that PSG is in good condition and continues to win in a row, and vice versa, Newcastle is also in good condition after beat Chelsea with a talak score.

This match will definitely be very interesting to watch because the two clubs are fighting hard to get through to the last 16 of the Champions League.
If PSG can win this match then PSG will be able to qualify, I am sure PSG will do their best in this match, unlike the last meeting between the two where PSG suffered a very embarrassing defeat at home Newcastle, I am sure PSG will avenge the same thing in home later.

As the Monaco team is also playing for the title and the team was in a good rhythm, I thought the Monaco vs PSG match would be very competitive. But nothing happened. PSG secured an impressive 5-2 win. Although the first half was somewhat contested, the second half we saw dominated only by PSG players. And the Monaco side couldn't put a stop to PSG's winning streak. If no accident happens, PSG will easily be champions of Ligue 1 this season.

PSG has fallen far behind in the Champions League due to defeat in two matches. If you want to play in the round of 16 of the Champions League, you have to beat the Newcastle team at home in the next match. If PSG fail to win this match, the chances of qualifying for the round of 16 are very slim.

[TastyChillySauce00]

Enrique very serious in the match against Monaco, surely he will very seriously too against squad Eddie Howe at next match. There is no reason to lose, considering their point gap is also very close at that group, so PSG will target winning in that match.
Yeah, PSG have a lot quality player. Anyhow, they have money at there and with that money they can recruit expensive players. But, I think without a great tactician they might have difficulty. Fortunately this season they recruited Enrique, the right man who has a lot of experience, and it seems like also their squad has found good chemistry with Enrique considering PSG performance is getting better.

The performance of PSG in previous meetings with Newcastle ended up in humiliation for Paris Saint Germain. They have to become one of the interesting team that's keen on accumulating winning mostly against elite teams. This is basically what we all need because getting a win have been demonstrated to become more sectional than expected. PSG and Newcastle United recorded winning thrilled victory after international break, it means they're both ready to face each other in next game. Luis Enrique side thrash Monaco 5-2 and Eddie Howe team thrashed almighty Chelsea 4-1.

Enrique's team shall have learned from the previous mistake as this is the last chance owned by PSG. Unable to gather three points from newcastle will be a disaster for the club. Newcastle is also aiming to win against PSG caused by it really needs point to qualify for the knock out stage.
PSG is playing a bit better than before. Mbappe will become the center of PSG at this moment. Im sure PSG will able to beat newcastle at home. Enrique shall have learned from the previous match about how to identify the main weakness of newcastle.
PSG needs to learn from what dortmund did against newcastle. dortmund was able beating newcastle two times in a row.

Seeing PSG's performance in the last few matches which continues to improve, I am quite optimistic that they will be able to get good results in the UCL match.
Indeed, PSG joined a fairly strong team in UCL Group F which made the competition quite fierce to get through the group phase.

Since the beginning of Enrique's arrival in charge of PSG, this team has experienced a slight decline in performance when compared to last season, perhaps because many of their star players have left or other things, but slowly I see Enrique making positive progress for the progress of the PSG team's current performance.

You have already moved the discussion of the Champions League to Ligue 1, here the intrigue is a little different, it lies in whether Nice can beat Toulouse today, if this does not happen and Nice loses points, then the intrigue in Ligue 1 will decrease significantly, since PSG will already be ahead , and it’s not even half the season yet. For Nice it will be a home match and Toulouse are not in the best shape at the moment, so Nice have a good chance to continue chasing PSG.

[rendravolt]

Nice is the only team in Europe's top 5 leagues that has conceded the fewest goals with only 4 goals. This is an extraordinary record for Nice this season and it is also what keeps them on track to compete for the title this season. Today Nice will face Toulouse at home and it looks like they will maintain their record of conceding a few goals well.

If you look at the second H2H last season, the result was only a draw and not many goals were scored, so the likely result will be a draw or a narrow win for Nice. Betting on over 2.5 goals will be quite risky with these statistics and we should bet on under 2.25 goals or 3 goals in this match. Nice must win if they want to get closer to PSG and also widen the distance from Monaco, which is only 2 points behind.

I think Toulouse can get points in this match. This team is performing very badly in Ligue 1. But this group is not weak. The team has won only two matches in 12 matches in Ligue 1. However, in the Europa League match, they defeated the giant team Liverpool by 3-2. And in the next match, the team shared the points with Lille. We have seen an improvement in Toulouse's performance in the last few matches. On the other hand, Nice's defense is the best defense in Ligue 1, but the team has scored only 13 goals in 12 matches. That's why I think the match is more likely to be a goalless draw or a 1-1 draw.

[Tony116]

It didn't take long for PSG to regain the lead, yesterday they beat Monaco and today Nice need to beat Toulouse to hold on to PSG and maintain their one-point lead. But what I was talking about is happening, Enrique has adjusted the game and now PSG are becoming the same as before, and if Nice cannot hold on to PSG, then they will lead in the championship with a big advantage.

It looks like Enrique has succeeded in getting the right formula for PSG because yes, PSG's success in beating Monaco with a score of 5-2 is at least proof of that. So yes, with this victory, PSG has managed to get its current 6th consecutive win. Thus, I think I will no longer care whether Nice will win or not because after all, currently PSG clearly has the ability to create a wide points gap with the competing teams in positions 2 and 3. So yes, of course PSG will is back strong at the top of the Ligue 1 standings and it seems there are no longer any doubts for PSG in Ligue 1.

PSG just nailed their sixth win in a row, taking down Monaco 5-2. It was quite a show, ending in a thrilling seven-goal match. PSG is now sitting at the top of the Ligue 1 standings. The team seems to have found its spark, and there's a fantastic energy among the players. They're working together seamlessly, putting in a ton of effort and staying consistent. Everything is clicking, and I'm excited to see more of this in the coming days.

The performance of PSG seems to be stable right now. I will also say that stability is going to be important for PSG when it comes to creating wide gaps between the other teams in the league. But I think PSG will be able to do that. And I think it is not going to be a bad idea right now to actually trust the new coach. Seems like he is doing a good job right now and he has been able to understand what to do with this team to actually achieve the success that people want. So things are looking good right now. I hope they will be able to continue this.

Today Nice will face Toulouse at home and it looks like they will maintain their record of conceding a few goals well.

Nice didn't receive many goals but they didn't score much either. Having a good defence line without scoring many goals will guarantee a draw and victories at best. That way they will remain in top but they couldn't guarantee the title.
I expect them to win vs Toulouse in today's game and maintain the 1 point difference between them and PSG.
I am worried about Marseille more than Nice. This old top team got a draw vs Strasbourg and when we added it to the bad results they got previously, then even the 9th place could not be obvious to maintain..

[slaman29]

Dang, my post yesterday was quoted by over 10 people, but mostly I would consider spammers. This thread is getting so hard to follow honestly, how weird French league attracts all these sigspammers

Naaaa, Monaco loves attacking, making themselves open to PSG style. Any coach would have done the same, Enrique success depends not on Ligue 1 but on Champions League. Take revenge on their losses, reach the final without relying on Mbappe too much, make more chances and running, then he proves himself.

Nice! Nice! Nice!

[W Jr.]

With the capital of winning over Monaco, PSG should be able to get their revenge this time. In the first leg Eddie Howe squad embarrassed them at St James Park, and this time it's their turn to take revenge, I think if they lose or draw again it would be very embarrassing because they are playing in front of their own supporters. In my opinion, PSG can relax for the Ligue 1 competition, after all, in the end they will also win a trophy at the end of the season as usual.

This does not mean to underestimate other clubs, but I try to say what I see realistically. I see Enrique has a squad that is almost the same as Man City and Arsenal in terms of price, isn't there price there is quality, that what I mean here.

I feel that PSG can definitely secure a place in group F to qualify for the round of 16, although their situation and fate will really depend on each other. Apart from being an event for revenge, the match against Newcastle will be a life and death decision regarding their future fate, I can't wait to see how it will play out.

Enrique very serious in the match against Monaco, surely he will very seriously too against squad Eddie Howe at next match. There is no reason to lose, considering their point gap is also very close at that group, so PSG will target winning in that match.
Yeah, PSG have a lot quality player. Anyhow, they have money at there and with that money they can recruit expensive players. But, I think without a great tactician they might have difficulty. Fortunately this season they recruited Enrique, the right man who has a lot of experience, and it seems like also their squad has found good chemistry with Enrique considering PSG performance is getting better.

Enrique had some problems in his first matches, but gradually the team seems to have found full harmony. PSG showed in the Monaco match that there is no French team that can beat them in a match where they are on a good day. I believe PSG will continue its outstanding performance. I think they will win the remaining 2 matches in the UCL.

It didn't take long for PSG to regain the lead, yesterday they beat Monaco and today Nice need to beat Toulouse to hold on to PSG and maintain their one-point lead. But what I was talking about is happening, Enrique has adjusted the game and now PSG are becoming the same as before, and if Nice cannot hold on to PSG, then they will lead in the championship with a big advantage.

PSG appeared more convincing in yesterday's match against Monaco, and as I predicted, Adolf Hutter's squad would have difficulty keeping up with the game or overthrowing the home team. Even though we refer to the H2H meeting between these two teams, PSG always finds it difficult to overthrow Monaco. and Enrique made an exception in this match, he was able to bring his squad to overthrow Monaco with a big score. In this match, it was Dembele's first goal, he also played with a very good performance. The score ended 5-2, and luckily I hesitated to bet.

My previous estimate was that Paris Saint Germain would only win the match by a narrow score. I predict, if it doesn't end with a score of 2-1, then, 2-0. the result is out of scenario, I speculate on Under 3.5 goals. and yep, I was spared because I was dubious about betting. With this result, PSG now leads the top of the standings with a difference of 4 points ahead of Nice who is in 2nd place. tomorrow, Nice will host Toulouse. I don't think Nice will achieve a positive result in the match against Toulouse.
By the way, now Enrique can focus more on the Champions League group phase to host the match against Newcastle later.

Honestly, I must say that I learned a lot from PSG's match versus Monaco. On the basis of their previous head-to-head matches, I initially believed PSG would struggle, but wow, was I wrong! Their convincing 5-2 win demonstrated both the team's adaptability and dominance as well as Enrique's tactics. It was evident from Dembele's performance - which included his first goal - how talented PSG is. It's fascinating that Monaco, particularly with Minamino's goal, gave PSG a slight worry at the beginning. Thought PSG could falter at that point, they proved to be a formidable opponent

I'm not as excited as some people may be over Nice's impending matchup with Toulouse. While Nice has shown reliable, they don't seem to have the same edge that PSG does, particularly when it matters most. The combination of PSG's collective strength and plan, as well as its top players, contribute to their domination. Enrique is obviously focused on larger trophies, and deservedly so, as they get ready for Newcastle in the Champions League. They showed exactly how good they can be this season against Monaco

[bering]

So far Nice is the strongest contender for race title with PSG this because other teams just like Monaco or Marseille still unable to showing their consistency especially for Marseille that yesterday they were failed to gets the winning result from Strasbourg and since September Marseille only able to gets 1 win under Gattuso so this is not good achievement and even i was thinking Marseille will not finish at top 5 because until now there were no good progress from Marseille under Gattuso

About Nice match today they will fight against Toulouse and the starting lineup has been published and Nice will playing without Hicham Boudaoui who got suspension because of card accumulation but Terem Moffi as centre striker will be played since early match and i expect Nice didn't losing point again today so hopefully they can able to bounce back and collect 3 points from Toulouse but my prediction is Nice will be able to win with narrow score and Nice has odds @1.50

[rahmad2nd]

I think Toulouse can get points in this match. This team is performing very badly in Ligue 1. But this group is not weak. The team has won only two matches in 12 matches in Ligue 1. However, in the Europa League match, they defeated the giant team Liverpool by 3-2. And in the next match, the team shared the points with Lille. We have seen an improvement in Toulouse's performance in the last few matches. On the other hand, Nice's defense is the best defense in Ligue 1, but the team has scored only 13 goals in 12 matches. That's why I think the match is more likely to be a goalless draw or a 1-1 draw.

And it seems, we have to agree with what you say. in the last few days, I have been researching the two teams that will be competing soon. As you said and I even said in a previous post, it seems like Nice will have difficulty getting maximum results in this match. even though in reality, these two teams have a gap based on standings. Nice is ranked 2nd, while Toulouse is ranked 15th. However, if we refer to betting options, Nice is more favored by bookmakers. It's natural, apart from having a gap based on ranking, Nice is also playing at home. As for Toulouse, you have reviewed it as briefly as possible. but, yes we agree and so does Nice.

The point is, I'm not sure whether there will be many goals in this match. However, referring to betting odds, Nice is @1.52 and Toulouse is @7.00. Will the match end in a draw? The odds are quite tempting at @4.40. but there are other options, if you want to choose a safer bet. can be done with Under, or Handicap. well, ideal for me is a handicap option with +1 Toulouse @2.00. If Nice wins this match, at least the goal difference is not big. maybe otherwise, Toulouse was able to overthrow the home team. This match has just started and let's wait for the final result.

edit: new match begins.

[Raflesia]

Yep, the focus must now be immediately shifted to the match against Newcastle in the Champions League group stage because this is important for PSG's survival if they still want to qualify for the next phase.
In the first leg they underestimated Newcastle at St. James Park which made them lose quite heavily and now they must be able to avenge that with 3 points especially for the second leg this time PSG played home.
If in the end they lose again even though the chance to qualify is still there for PSG but the steps are a little more difficult so they must be able to get 3 points in a big match again next week. PSG must not make a mistake let alone underestimate Newcastle again because Isak is also back and surely Newcastle are ready to bite in the second leg this time.

Luis Enrique has prepared this match carefully and PSG will definitely play tough at home. PSG's victory against Monaco has shown that PSG is in good condition and continues to win in a row, and vice versa, Newcastle is also in good condition after beat Chelsea with a talak score.

This match will definitely be very interesting to watch because the two clubs are fighting hard to get through to the last 16 of the Champions League.
If PSG can win this match then PSG will be able to qualify, I am sure PSG will do their best in this match, unlike the last meeting between the two where PSG suffered a very embarrassing defeat at home Newcastle, I am sure PSG will avenge the same thing in home later.

Do not let them underestimate Newcastle again in the match later because however their motivation and ambition are now very good, it's just that if in the end they underestimate Newcastle too much like the previous match then this could be dangerous for them.
Now with what happened between them in this week's match of course it is a very good capital and a 3-day break seems to be enough for PSG and Newcastle to appear at full strength in the 5th Champions League match.
Victory is a fixed price if they really want to stay in a favorable situation to qualify for the next phase so there must be no mistakes in the match later.

[Silence Scream]

Enrique's team shall have learned from the previous mistake as this is the last chance owned by PSG. Unable to gather three points from newcastle will be a disaster for the club. Newcastle is also aiming to win against PSG caused by it really needs point to qualify for the knock out stage.

That's why I think the match is more likely to be a goalless draw or a 1-1 draw.

The match is a draw for now, but the match has just started. They are a very difficult team, and playing away makes it a much more difficult match for Toulouse. Even though many seem to be favourites, it seems to me like a match with a high probability of a draw. Toulouse created a big sensation by beating Liverpool in France, their form is on the rise, let's see what they will do in this match.

[Jody.Drummer]

I am worried about Marseille more than Nice. This old top team got a draw vs Strasbourg and when we added it to the bad results they got previously, then even the 9th place could not be obvious to maintain..

I've always said that a good defense must also be accompanied by a good attack, because in matches they need goals to ensure they can win the match. So far I have no doubts about the performance of Nice's defense, yes they are very solid. But the problem is that it is not accompanied by a sharp attacking line, which in the end makes it difficult for them to win. Yes they don't concede, but when they can't create goals it also doesn't mean anything for them, because they will only get a draw.

Nice are currently playing a match against Toulouse, the score is still tied.

[Distraction]

Tonight we will find out whether this is a process getting better for Lyon or not. I mean they won their last match against Rennes and finally got their first win of the season. They had to wait for 11 matches until getting that win I'm afraid.    It is really sad to see Lyon being in this much bad condition this season.

Their next competitor is Lille today. It is a home match firstly but this doesn't change things much for Lyon though. Every match is tough for them at the end of the day.

Lille lack 2 important players as it seems who are Benjamin Andre and Diakite. The odds of both sides have been increasing while the odds of draw are rising. I think we will see a draw in this match.
