Finally Nice was experienced their first loses this season that playing at Nantes home ground Nice actually the favourite to win the match especially before this match Nantes has through an 4 latest matches in Ligue 1 without the winning result so Nice was very confident will collect 3 points from this match but although during the match Nice was dominate the game but unfortunately they have to lose

After this result PSG had the opportunity to widen their difference points with Nice if they can able to beat their opponent Le Havre and not required to be analysis because obviously PSG is clearly better compared to Le Havre especially from the squad that the quality player from PSG is far above to Le Havre but PSG should be carefull to this team because recently this team was displayed solid defense because in the last 5 matches Le Havre only conceded 1 goal so PSG should be aware to these records because i am sure Le Havre mission for this match is they will attempts to playing with defensive style to avoiding lose and not impossible Le Havre only targetting draw result

It looks like Nice is making life easier to Paris to win this season also in the French Ligue 1 as they are losing against Nantes in the first half of the game and I extremely highly doubt they will be able to fight back to get at least a draw in the second half as I totally don't expect them to have a chance to win the game,they are not playing well at all.This is all playing to the advantage of PSG as they just need to win their game and after seeing what they did to Newcastle in Champions League game in term of dominance I doubt they will have much problems winning the game no matter who they are playing against here in the Ligue 1.

As I previously suspected this would be a stumbling block for Nice. They always have difficulty when facing Nantes and that was proven by the result which saw Nice go home without taking a single point. Nantes did a good job as hosts and however this victory felt important to continue to stay away from the relegation zone every season. This result indirectly provides comfort for PSG at the top of the standings and from the start Nice was not the right team to compete for the title. They are not able to score many goals in the wins they always achieve and that is the reason why there are times when they have bad results like this.

A lot of Criticisms have been ongoing concerning PSG's performance well Criticisms to this PSG side is allowed because they’ve been so poor especially in European competition, like this is the champion of France League and yet they struggle against teams that aren’t champions in their league that probably didn’t even finish 2nd like is that not crazy.
 
 They’re a team that should be seen as not just favorites for the trophy but also a threat rather they’re seen as teams that even smaller teams could play around and steal points from. I don’t think Luis is the problem of this PSG sode but rather they should do an overhaul and proper investments in young future stars and that could just be the best hit for this team’s road to stardom.

Criticisms aren't bad, you just have to listen not with emotions so you don't see them wrongly. These Criticisms builds you and shape you when you take the good ones and filter the bad words away. Change is bound to happen soke takes times while the others happens speedily with the speed of light.

PSG has relied too much on special players for success, now with the absence of these players they're not going in a good way with this poor form. Having a coach with European experience isa plus for the squad, you just have to convince the management about mor3 signatures that suits his pattern for the club. With time they'll blend in well if they can win the Champions League.

Nice will obviously feel regret because of losing this match they had against Nantes and I think PSG can even feel safer after seeing this result from Nice because currently Nice is the most important competitor for PSG to race for first place in the French League and that's why Enrique can think and focus of Chamapnios League more to get better results there.

It was a fluke, Nantes isn't a strong club and they're rarely make a score, so even Nice is no longer in the top position, they don't need to worry too much. At least Nice don't have extra schedule for other league unlike PSG which they need to play in two leagues,

PSG will meet Le Havre and Nantes, I expect an easy win against these two clubs.

There was a quite balanced game between Lens and Lyon actually. I appreciated Lyon's trying to do something here. They were really good at finding the target quite many times as well. Their xG was near 3.00 while Lens' was near 2.00. But still Lens were the one with scoring 3 goals.

Lens got a red card as well but it came too late. If it was an earlier red card then things could have been much different in this game. Lyon really need everything in their favour as much as possible otherwise they just can't win.

PSG will meet Le Havre and Nantes, I expect an easy win against these two clubs.

Nice have stepped down a little bit, thereby given Paris Saint-Germain breathing space, Luis Enrique will make plans to win upcoming games. Stade de la Beaujoire is a home for remembering thrilling victory against elite sides this season. Nantes coach, Jocelyn Gourvennec  is promising and he just know how to tie down his opponents at home. Checking the stats of Nantes this season doesn't seem improving but they managing to win Nice still baffled me, the big question pops up, how did they grab three points? How does it feel for an average club to hand Nice first defeats of the season.

This is a very surprising result for me, I bet on Nice winning but unfortunately they really let me down.
Nice has not managed to maintain its consistency and this will certainly be an opportunity for PSG to get away from getting points on the standings.
In Ligeu 1 since the last few seasons there has been no team that has been able to consistently and compete fiercely with PSG in the title race, this has once again become a boring competition and it is possible that PSG will not experience significant difficulties in the title race this season.

It seems quite appropriate now to say whether Nice have started to falter towards the middle of this season.
After a very good start to the season at the moment Nice's changes are quite pronounced in terms of performance. Their goal productivity is slowly disappearing and their attacking line is starting to show cracks.
Yesterday's match also showed how their condition has changed. They are still very good in terms of domination, it's just that their finishing is still very lacking and losing to Nantes yesterday makes me feel they will experience a change in situation now if they cannot overcome their current consistency.

PSG always dominates Ligue 1 so it's not surprising in my opinion that they will win the title again this season because there are no truly consistent competitors in my opinion, since the start of the season it doesn't look like Nice is a club that can really break PSG's dominance so I wouldn't be surprised Seeing Nice's defeat today by Nantes, which is actually not a difficult opponent for Nice, but that's football, it all comes back to luck.

PSG will face Le Havre which is certainly not a difficult opponent for PSG so this is their opportunity to maintain the difference in points considering Nice's defeat, I think PSG will win the title again this season because we all see that there is no club that is truly consistent in winning it. Ligue 1 title this season apart from PSG.

If you look at the strength of the team, Nice has not been very good this season and they don't deserve to be able to stop PSG from retaining their title this season.
This defeat is not that surprising because Nantes played quite well at home and Nice is a team that does not appear consistent so I think this result is quite natural.

PSG has the opportunity to move away from Nice's points tally this week if PSG is able to win against Le Havre this week, and if you look at the strength of the PSG team I think it won't be a problem for them.

But it is ridiculous to talk about what team deserves what. I guess it doesn't surprise anyone that Nice can't perform as well as PSG.



If the table was looking differently, the only team that would mess around would be PSG. The difference is so huge that this by itself turns the league into a joke. I don't think that any team would think it is their best own interest to be that much ahead in terms of depth and quality and value of the squad compared to any other team in the league. It harms the league instead of making it better unless it would create a positive effect for other teams as well, but I am not sure it does.

Full Time: Lens 3 vs 2 Lyon

Having taken the lead in the 15th minute through goal from Wesley Said, Lyon had to achieve less than good results against Lens and suffered their 8th defeat this season of 13 matches. Most tragic with Lyon's performance this season, from 13 matches they have  8 defeats, 4 draw and win 1 match only. I doubt with Lyon opportunity keep existing in Ligue 1 next season current most bottom place will make their position in Ligue 1 have questionable. Actually, Lyon managed to equalize with  score of 2-2 until the 72nd minute, but a goal from substitute player Przemyslaw Frankowski in the 74th minute made Lyon failed to get one point and had to suffer second defeat in a row after previously losing against Lille in the match last week.

Lyon keeps continue the bad trend. The chance to be relegated into the lower divison seems real soon. Even clermont was starting to leave lyon behind. When it comes to this club, I am at a loss for words, but I strongly believe that Lyon is in dire need of a complete overhaul, not just in terms of its coach, but also many of its players. Lyon will be relegated soon. Lyon is getting another shit again. Nothing improved from this club. It keeps show inconsistent performance.

The chance for lyon to be relegated is very if the club still continues the bad trend in the french league like this. Glad my pick was right to choose lens over lyon. Lens has been slowly showing improvement. Lyon is showing another shitshow athough it was scoring two goals but i meant nothing.
Lyon is still able performing very consistent performance to keep lose three points. Lyon has been determining its future to play in the lower division. My applause for this club caused by it was demonstrating how to play bad football.

After grabbing a point from the game against Newcastle, they now have a little bit of hope of qualifications to the knockouts. They come into this game without much disappointment, I hope they don't get affected with injuries. I'm not expecting too much from them in this game today, a draw would make me happy or nothing more than three goals in this game anyways. Since Nice failed to win yesterday, Parisians would take the chances today.

Marseille has got to be my favorite for the day, I'm Predicting Per Emerick Aubameyang to be amongst the goal scorers as he'll want to replicate his hat trick performance from the Europa League Competition triumph.

Ligue 1 title this season apart from PSG.

Most likely PSG will have difficulty securing full points, because in the 10th minute Donnarumma received a red card. Automatically having a superior number of players will give Le Havre the freedom to put up resistance to pressure PSG. I previously thought that this would be a moment to create a point difference with Nice at the top of the standings, in fact expectations did not match the reality on the field. However, we'll see how PSG match ends this time, I hope they won't lose points even though they have to play with outnumbered players. The most realistic target is to achieve a draw, if they PSG still play too openly then La Havre chances are big enough to make PSG lose.

[Weawant]

It's past 22 minutes of the first half of the game between PSG and le Havre and PSG is yet to secure a goal, although they have so far been dominant but I doubt if the goal difference will be much by the end of the match most likely they will win but with a little margin.

It's expected that they win with easy against la Havre because they are much better than la Havre in strength and team dept but as usual with small teams, they will always try to put up good resistance against bigger teams except the bigger gets to break the barrier they will be encountering at the defense of such team then they may end up in a draw, in a later update just now while I was still typing PSG just got a lead by a goal.

PSG is leading and I doubt they would be that much impacted by that red card of their main goalkeeper,they have the substitute goalkeeper as good as their main one and their players compared to Le Havre are of another planet,if they manage to miss not winning this game I can understand it as they are with 10 players yet I don't believe this will be the case.I don't believe this will be the case as they know very well that winning this game can give them a very big boost to their title fight and they would be 4 points ahead of Nice which honestly after seeing the game of yesterday I have not seen a more ugly football played.

These two teams showed two different sides, even though previously Lens had also slumped at the start of the season. but gradually, Pranck Heise was able to bring his team up slowly. even though their Champions League performance is very messy, it is natural that this team is not strengthened by players who have above average quality in the squad.

Meanwhile for Lyon, they are having difficulty getting back up even though they have changed coaching. what was even more surprising, I just checked that now Lyon has changed its head coach again. I haven't checked whether Fabio Grosso was fired, or resigned. or, he is absent. What is certain is that Lyon is now under the leadership of Pierre Sage. referring to transfermarkt, he is an interim coach.

In this match, even though Lyon took the lead in the 15th minute. in fact, they were unable to maintain it until the game was over. even though the score was tied at 2-2, in the end Lens was able to get the win. In fact, Lyon is in crisis. I don't know what happened, but it seems like they are also experiencing a crisis within the club's management itself.
Now Lyon has suffered another defeat, previously falling to Lille. It was recorded that they were only able to get 7 points in their 13 matches.  It's quite difficult to be in a safe zone if there are no major changes. Like it or not, club management has to do something to save this team from falling further. Well, we'll see how things develop next.

Do not think anyone was surprised to see the result of this match. Lens performed well. At the 72nd minute, I thought the match might end in a draw because Lyon did well to actually level the score. But in the end, Lens was able to score another and make sure that they got three points from this match. Even though I would say that the score was not very surprising for anyone, however, I will also say that the match was hard for Lens to win in the end. And now I don't think Lyon is actually going to improve to a point where they will be able to get out of the relegation zone.

[X-ray]

The match between PSG vs havre is still happening right now. There are some things that have been happening during the game is running like donnarumma got a red card in the first 10 minutes while mbappe has been successfully helping PSG to lead the game right now.
Im quite pessimistic to think PSG would be winning the game but i was wrong. PSG was able leading the game through mbappe. Im very grateful to have him in PSG. It's half time now.
PSG is not losing a lot against havre. It's still able getting 49% ball possession with only 10 players. Mbappe once against probably become a savior for PSG now. The two teams were lack of shoots but i can understand it since PSG was only playing with 10 players.
It was so amazing to see how mbappe is still able in scoring for PSG despite its club played with 10 players. This is also the main reason why PSG keen to extend his contract.

[snipie]

PSG is leading and I doubt they would be that much impacted by that red card of their main goalkeeper,they have the substitute goalkeeper as good as their main one and their players compared to Le Havre are of another planet,if they manage to miss not winning this game I can understand it as they are with 10 players yet I don't believe this will be the case.I don't believe this will be the case as they know very well that winning this game can give them a very big boost to their title fight and they would be 4 points ahead of Nice which honestly after seeing the game of yesterday I have not seen a more ugly football played.

Le Havre couldn't profit from the one player down in PSG squad without counting also the injured player that left two minutes before the red card and the change made to replace the goalkeeper. PSG started hard the game but Kylian Mbappe scored the first goal as usual. The game is still in the first half but 4 points difference from Nice will make PSG less stressed comparing to Nice which lost their game yesterday vs Nantes by one goal. It is funny to see Nice holding a good record without a defeat before that game and they were taken down by a mid-table team..

[Strongkored]

Nice losing to Nantes is not that surprising because Nice, even though they had time to be leaders of the standings, but they are not a productive team and were behind since the first half Nice were unable to equalize the score or score more goals to maintain the narrow point difference with PSG, and it was tough for Nice to return to the top of the standings.

PSG is leading and I doubt they would be that much impacted by that red card of their main goalkeeper,they have the substitute goalkeeper as good as their main one and their players compared to Le Havre are of another planet,if they manage to miss not winning this game I can understand it as they are with 10 players yet I don't believe this will be the case.I don't believe this will be the case as they know very well that winning this game can give them a very big boost to their title fight and they would be 4 points ahead of Nice which honestly after seeing the game of yesterday I have not seen a more ugly football played.

With the first half already over and they still leading the score, maybe PSG will change their strategy in the second half by being more defensive and trying to be effective in counter-attacks, and my prediction is that Mbappe will try to score his second goal in this match to secure 3 points so that PSG is even stronger at the top of the standings. as their rivals suffered their first defeat which gave PSG a huge advantage.

[Blitzboy]

Finally Nice was experienced their first loses this season that playing at Nantes home ground Nice actually the favourite to win the match especially before this match Nantes has through an 4 latest matches in Ligue 1 without the winning result so Nice was very confident will collect 3 points from this match but although during the match Nice was dominate the game but unfortunately they have to lose

After this result PSG had the opportunity to widen their difference points with Nice if they can able to beat their opponent Le Havre and not required to be analysis because obviously PSG is clearly better compared to Le Havre especially from the squad that the quality player from PSG is far above to Le Havre but PSG should be carefull to this team because recently this team was displayed solid defense because in the last 5 matches Le Havre only conceded 1 goal so PSG should be aware to these records because i am sure Le Havre mission for this match is they will attempts to playing with defensive style to avoiding lose and not impossible Le Havre only targetting draw result

This is a very surprising result for me, I bet on Nice winning but unfortunately they really let me down.
Nice has not managed to maintain its consistency and this will certainly be an opportunity for PSG to get away from getting points on the standings.
In Ligeu 1 since the last few seasons there has been no team that has been able to consistently and compete fiercely with PSG in the title race, this has once again become a boring competition and it is possible that PSG will not experience significant difficulties in the title race this season.

Nice's recent performance has disappointed me. I was optimistic about them as a dark horse to challenge PSG in Ligue 1. But their contradiction is too obvious. They always fail to change things up when I think they're ready. It hurts fans betting on them and the competition's excitement. However, PSG's run appears unchecked again. They're cruising, and Nice's drop gives PSG the title. To keep the league competitive and entertaining, teams like Nice must continually improve. PSG remains on top else.
