French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[marcous]

~ Snip ~

Yeah right, they are doing quite well and should not worry about anything else. It feels like people are overreacting anytime PSG doesn't win a game, but looking at the league they failed to win 7 out of 23 games and they are still far far ahead of everyone else.

There is no team like Leverkusen who had unexpected success that could dethrone PSG at the moment, which is why they are having a blast, getting a draw against anyone doesn't feel like a much big deal for them and that should be the most important part. They can do whatever they want, and that is why they are capable of having fun with the league now. It should be something to care about, we need to keep it going eventually and not really doubt them to win the league.

Last season Ligue 1 competition was even more competitive than this season, where Lens pressured PSG until the season ended, PSG won the trophy by one point. This season, Enrique fleet seems to be walking in the park without any significant disturbances, Nice was pressing but slowly dropped to fourth place. With the points gap increasingly forming, the competition for tickets to appear in the Champions League and Europa League next season, in my opinion, is more interesting than the hunt for trophies.

Enrique seems to have been guaranteed a trophy in his first season, an easy journey because he has a squad depth above the average for other clubs. The French Super Cup was the first to be won, the Ligue 1 trophy will follow in the next 10 matches, I think PSG will lock up the trophy before the season ends.

The Champions League is PSG real challenge, a trophy they have been chasing for a long time, but they have not been able to achieve it until now. With a 2-0 win over Sociedad in the first leg of the round of 16, the second leg looks like it will be easier for them to conquer. I'm curious about PSG luck this season, how far PSG can go while Mbappe is still with them.

[Spack17]

PSG are at least able to dominate the Ligue 1 despite not being able to win a single Champions League title so far.  

However when Mbappe leaves the team this summer I will be curious about how much PSG will keep up their dominance in the Ligue 1 as well. Because Mbappe has been playing the biggest role in his team to win this title for many years. When he leaves PSG will need to start stronger and more consistent as a team. They have added quite young and talented players to the team such as Kolo Muani, Ramos and so on. I hope they can benefit from these players at the highest level.

Achieving a draw is not a bad result for PSG even though they are playing at home because after all they have collected a lot of points to stay at the top for quite a long time even if they lose one or two matches this is not a threat for PSG because the team is Being in second place doesn't appear consistent and PSG can focus a little on the UCL match next week because the UCL competition is very important for PSG, because they have locked in the League 1 trophy, now they want to get the UCL trophy even though it is very difficult for PSG to achieve.

PSG must be able to beat Real Madrid, Man City and also Munich if they want to win this trophy, even though we all know that beating teams in the same class as these 3 teams is not an easy thing to conquer, especially with PSG strength which is still not that good when compared to the 3 PSG teams only relying on Mbappe, while teams like Real Madrid, Man City and Munich have balanced squads.

Just like you, I also saw that there was nothing worrying from PSG after that the match, I think PSG fans don't need to be too sad and worried about their team in Ligue 1 because with the current 11 point difference, Of course brest need a miracle to catch up?
Like the previous season in Ligue 1, in the end we will see that PSG will run to leave their rivals quite far behind and it is even possible that PSG will lock the ligue 1 title before the season ends, so what is there to worry about?

actually PSG fans should be worried about PSG journey in the Champions League, whether this season will be better or worse for them by failing to win the Champions League trophy again for the first time in the club history, to be honest, i personally am quite pessimistic if PSG can talk much in the Champions league this season, PSG is indeed quite dominant in Ligue 1 with their luxurious squad, but for the Champions League, of course experience and a winning mentality are the most important things to get the big ear trophy, when the at PSG squad is full of star players like Messi, Neymar and Mbappe but they In fact they failed to win the Champions League, so why are PSG fans so hopeful that they can be a winner just by relying on Mbappe, who will also be leaving from PSG next season?

[Weawant]

PSG has the ability to win the French league with any combination. They will have to work hard to qualify for the Champions League. The Champions League is an important platform and I think their performance is satisfactory after important names such as Messi and Neymar. Messi was a very important star and his absence from the team greatly reduced their strength. However, they somehow managed to close this gap.

For PSG it's a norm for them to win the french most often so it's not like a big deal or something to be really excited about because they are used to winning it most often and this season it very probable they will win the title because so far their performance and their position on the table means they are not any close to any team who would want to race with them to the top of the table, but then what has been that which PSG has always longed to win is the champions league which has at some point caused them to invest o much in their team with the hope to build a team that can help them bring the champions league trophy to France but it's always been futile even when the had the best set of strikers all at once on the pitch, having Messi, mbappe and Neymar.

Let's hope that this season PSG will be able to do much better in the champions league and possibly get to the finals of the league, even if they happen not to win the trophy, it will be an achievement that they finally got the  finals of the champions league this season something they have found difficult to achieve in a while.

They have added quite young and talented players to the team such as Kolo Muani, Ramos and so on. I hope they can benefit from these players at the highest level.

PSG is counting a lot on famous players rather than talented young ones. Mbappe is by far one of their best players especially when we compare the price spent on him with his performance and results with the team. We all saw how Neymar ended up being useless for a long period and now Saudi Pro League is suffering from his absence although not playing anything there. Same goes for many names including Dembele. They have to stop throwing money everywhere without serious result. I think losing Mbappe service might be hard for them but they have to think about the future of the team for real.

If I consider about the good finances that PSG has then yes, even though Mbappe left then it should be PSG is still able to have good results and dominance in Ligue 1. But, if for example PSG experiences poor performance and match results after Mbappe departure later then yes, maybe it will be proof that PSG does not have good management. Therefore, it seems with Mbappe departure might will improve PSG's management as well, of course, to really succeed in building a team with the potential of young players owned and not continuously relying on just one player.

Interesting of course to look forward to, I also curious whether PSG will still succeed or will really fail, because Mbappe has really become PSG's goal machine so far. For example, when at the beginning of the season Mbappe was not included in the squad and then PSG got bad results. But yes, in the end Mbappe was included in the squad and made PSG return to the top of the standings and not only that, because Mbappe also managed to top the list of top scorers so far in Ligue 1.

I agree with what you said about the impact Mbappé have in PSG, he actually contrited a lot to dominate the home league, is present in PSG push away Lyon that was dominanting the league. Champions league trophy is their biggest challenge the they try anything possible to lift the trophy but it is not yet their time, I don't blame Mbappé for making his final decision of living, true be told he has done his best for the club.

Lyon won all their last five matches which was very good, gradually Lyon are moving from nothing to something, Lyon that so many people are finalising the relegation suddenly change to move to the top now they are half way, it will be so bad to see a big like Lyon to go down like that,

Regards Lyon matches against Strasbourg, Lyon are dominating the ball possession and still finding it difficult to make a win throughout the first half, I have much confidence that Lyon can win the match because of their presents performance and Strasbourg are not in good form now. Let see how the second half will go.

[QueenVera]

In the end, Monaco returned to winning ways after being defeated last week by Toulouse at Monaco. in the match against Lens, Monaco was able to beat the hosts with a score of 2-3. now Monaco has shifted the ranking previously occupied by Nice, and Adolf Hutter's squad is only 2 points behind Brest. meanwhile, Lens remains in 6th place in the standings. next week, Monaco will host a match against PSG. and it seems, it will not be an easy match for Adolf Hutter's team even though they are playing at their own headquarters. however, Monaco can go all out in this week's match, because PSG will be more focused on the Champions League match in the second leg at Real Sociedad headquarters. It could be that Enrique will make several rotations of his players to save the energy of his team's squad for later.

If Manaco is able to take advantage of the match against PSG and get full points, Brest's position could be disrupted if they only produce a draw, let alone lose. what is certain is that Adolf Hutter will do his best for his team's squad to bring his team to finish in 2nd place in the Lique 1 standings.
meanwhile, Nice and Brest, I think their ranking will gradually fall. moreover, Lille is currently trying to occupy the ranking occupied by Nice. well, at least the competition in Ligue 1 is quite exciting in the fight for 2nd place to get Champions League tickets.

Monaco claimed a smashing 2-3 victory on the road at RC Lens to claim a much-needed all three points and this keeps them comfortable in their run for a UCL spot. Meanwhile to Lens disadvantage, the loss of points Widen the gap for Lens to be able to catch up and get UCL spot. Now Lens must have to up their game and improve their style of play so as not to let a repetition of this kind of loss occur again. Let’s take a look at how Monaco secured their victory over Lens because I guess that’s the main talking point here.

 In a match full of turning points, Monaco did just enough to prevail, with Takumi Minamino’s outstanding late blast securing the victory in superb style and this kind of victory was one that was fun to watch as every minute of the match had both club fans on their toes and in huge suspense. Minamino made a point and had his name on the mouth of both fans after this match because of the efforts he put up from the first to the last. He was even involved in the penalty that paved way for the club’s second goal. Well the coach was also apt and on point with his selections as they proved to be worthy of the line ups as they all delivered excellently well in their various positions. Going forward, I think they’re now well placed in over throwing Brest who are sitted 2nd.

Brest will have some thrilling fixtures with the likes of Lens and Lillle and not getting maximum points in any of these could see Monaco cruising to 2nd place. I think this win against Lens is a big boost for them as they head to face and host the league leaders PSG. After seeing this performance, I can see they will be able to contain PSG and hold them to a safe draw and this will mount pressure on Brest because Lille aren’t going to take it easy as they’re struggling to overthrow Nice too. Well these kind of competition is what we enjoy and would hope to see it even grow fierce and have them challenge PSG for the championship next season.

Yes, it's not a big deal if it happens in Ligue 1, because the draw they received in Ligue 1 has no effect on them in the standings. Their points are far from the other teams and that makes them comfortable when they draw only once. But it will be a different story if it happens in the Champions League, because when they get this result in the first leg and play at home it will be a threat to them because in the second leg they will be more dificult to win.

In the first leg of the Champions League, they won 2-0 against Real Sociedad, it opened their chances of qualifying from the round of 16 to the quarter-finals. But they also still have to be careful because it could be that Real Sociedad can turn things around in the second leg later when they play at their own headquarters. Paris Saint Germain must prepare for it all, because if they make a mistake then they will feel something bad or be eliminated from the Champions League early. They must play as usual, because mentally they will certainly be better after their advantage in this first leg.

PSG didn't have much problem facing Real Sociedad in the second leg after they had 2 goals in hand. Luis Enrique is a coach who can be relied on enough to win matches against these La Liga representatives, so I think you can put your trust in him because PSG's journey in the Champions League this season looks good to qualify for the quarter-finals.

PSG is not thinking much about Ligue 1 as they lead the standings with a large points gap. This can provide many benefits for PSG because they can really focus on the Champions League. I would doubt PSG in the quarter-finals if they met teams like Manchester City or Real Madrid, but the match will definitely be tough for them if they meet other strong teams like Arsenal and Inter.

Enrique seems to have been guaranteed a trophy in his first season, an easy journey because he has a squad depth above the average for other clubs. The French Super Cup was the first to be won, the Ligue 1 trophy will follow in the next 10 matches, I think PSG will lock up the trophy before the season ends.

The Champions League is PSG real challenge, a trophy they have been chasing for a long time, but they have not been able to achieve it until now. With a 2-0 win over Sociedad in the first leg of the round of 16, the second leg looks like it will be easier for them to conquer. I'm curious about PSG luck this season, how far PSG can go while Mbappe is still with them.

Initially, Luis Enrique experienced many obstacles in implementing the system he wanted to implement at PSG.  However, gradually, the team coached by Enrique began to be able to adapt well to the wishes of this Spanish coach. although this team doesn't look solid yet, especially in the Champions League. however, in Ligue 1, PSG gradually improved without losing in 19 matches. even though it's not as smooth as winning 19 of his matches, Enrique has shown good progress in bringing his squad to at least Lique 1. this season, PSG is almost completely far from the bad issues and rumors surrounding the star players they have. the departure of Messi, Neymar and several other players made the conditions in the Paris Saint-Germain dressing room maintained and conducive. even though Mbappe is actually always rumored to be leaving for Real Madrid at the end of this season, that is not the topic of discussion in this post.

IMO, this season there are factors that make PSG not have a dominant competitor like last season. one of the factors, the performance of Marseille, Lens, Lille, Monaco is not that good.  in fact, it tends to decrease. Currently, Paris Saint-Germain is 11 points ahead of the team below its ranking, namely Berst. moreover, the teams ranked third and fourth. now, there are only 11 matches left, this competition will soon be over. PSG is very close to retaining the title this season. as for Nice, as I said. Gradually, this team will experience a decline in its ranking. as a result, Nice's position was threatened by the team below them, namely Lillie. Likewise with Brest, it is only a matter of time for AS Monaco to take over the position occupied by Brest. Talking about PSG in the Champions League, at least their chances of advancing to the next phase are wide open. I mean, PSG's chance to overthrow Real Sociedad in the second leg is wide open. however, don't get too hopeful if PSG can become champions in the Champions League. for me, it's not time for PSG with the current strength of the team.

Champions league are for the elite teams, clubs that are have strong background and not panic by the actions and brilliant results from their oppositions. PSG have almost made to the next phase because what more to expects from this upcoming UCL second leg? Paris Saint-Germain nailed Real Sociedad 2 nil in the first leg, giving Les Parisiens full hope of qualifying from this current round of 16. Luis Enrique will make only few changes and either bargain for draw tie against the Spanish side who crawl on their kneels to do an epic comeback.

Even if Mbappe leaves PSG, they have many good players. I believe PSG can still continue dominating the French league. If Mbappe goes, PSG will try to find another player as good as him. PSG doesn't always worry about spending money on good players. Other teams need good players like PSG if they want to stop psg for dominating French Ligue continously, but they might not want to spend a lot of money to get type of psg players . So, PSG will keep trying to be the best team. Even if Mbappe goes, they will find someone else. PSG has a lot of money to buy good players. Other teams might not have as much money, so it's hard for them to compete with PSG. But if they want to win, they need to spend money on good players too.

Paris Saint Germain is a rich club. When Mbappe leaves, I am sure they will sign a good player with the salary budget allocated to him. Osimhen is often talked about in the forum and I think Osimhen would be a very good choice for Paris Saint Germain because Paris Saint Germain's playing structure and Osimhen's skills can overlap. Mbappe will go to Real Madrid for sure now. Paris Saint Germain have already convinced him with money before, but they won't be able to do it this time. It would be better for them to accept this and prepare for the new season knowing this.

Rennes is in good momentum, before drawing against PSG, they managed to beat Milan in the Europa League play off. Even though in the end Rennes failed to advance to the last 16 due to difference the goal margin, the victory over Milan made Rennes gain confidence. Of course PSG will not be touched at the top of the standings, if PSG loses in the next 3 matches, it is not certain that the other Ligue 1 contestants will be able to overtake them. Such is the competitive level of Ligue 1 at the moment, with the depth of PSG squad, no club can break their dominance in the last few seasons.

The draw against Rennes was a bit disappointing, many bettors then thought that PSG chances in the Champions League were very low, because in Ligue 1 alone they had not been able to appear completely consistent. But personally, I don't think it has a big influence, Enrique will certainly try to win in the next match versus Monaco. The match against Monaco was an opportunity to gain better confidence, ahead of the second leg after that against Sociedad. I predict PSG will advance to the quarter finals.

PSG's loss or draw in the next match will not affect the competition for the Ligue 1 title, which is why this league is less competitive in competition because it is very difficult to break PSG's dominance as the strongest team in the league. The draw that PSG gets will definitely be linked to their performance in the Champions League because the actual competition there is full of challenges for PSG, because the competition in the Champions League will be much more difficult than in Ligue 1.

Winning by two goals when playing at home will make PSG have to be alert when they visit Real Sociedad's headquarters, because if they are careless, it is not impossible that Real Sociedad will turn things around. Even though I myself am more confident that PSG will qualify, Luis Enrique must try to do something so that this match will be easy for them to get a second win.

Marseille managed to break the curse of a draw against Montpellier and this time they did not hesitate to beat Montpellier with a landslide score of 4-1. Previously, we knew that the last two meetings both ended in the same 1-1 draw and at that time quite a few bettors lost money because they had too much hope in Marseille winning. I still remember last season being so annoyed because my multibet was ruined just because one result didn't meet expectations in this match and now I can start to see Marseille running as it should.

The dismissal of Gattuso as Marseille coach seems to provide a breath of fresh air and it should be noted that this is Marseille's first win in Ligue One after 5 matches without producing any wins. Marseille's new coach, Jean-Louis Gasset, can produce different results and of course it would be great to see Marseille be able to resume its lost winning streak. Marseille will not give up before the season ends and they still have the chance to win a place in European competition.

But it seems that most bettors also lose if they bet by relying on the track record of the Marseille Vs Montpellier match, because they are indoctrinated to get a draw too and Marseille actually managed to get a victory with a landslide scor.

I saw several new coaches in various leagues and they made a good contribution, and for his first week it was common to get a win, we don't know with JLG whether he will have a good impact after breaking the curse and can bring Marseille to win consistently in the future, before I also did not congratulate him on his arrival and competing in the French league one.

However, there are times when all these records can be broken and I think Marseille's advantage in this match is one of them being the host and also having a different strategy than before. The rotation carried out by several players ahead of this match was really matured by coach Jean-Louis Gasset and maybe that is what made Marseille even more mature. It would be a shame if the bettors had to lose money as a result of betting on a draw and maybe next time they can fully expect Marseille with the current coach.

I know that there are no guarantees because a new coach may still find it difficult to find the right adaptation for his squad and maybe this will also be what Marseille will experience in the future. However, if this all persists and Marseille never loses in the last 5 matches in the future then it can be said that coach Jean-Louis Gasset is the right coach for Marseille. The turnover of trainers is very fast when someone leaves and vice versa, those who come also get to know each other very quickly. Honestly, I don't know yet if Marseille have found a replacement for Gattuso and only found out after I found out from various sources yesterday. It's good to see Marseille making the right move.

PSG are at least able to dominate the Ligue 1 despite not being able to win a single Champions League title so far. 

Despite the fact that if UCL still remains the main target for PSG but the club shall not also abandon french league. As a club with biggest valuation and it's a common thing when this league is farmed by PSG. Having unlimited money is helping the club so much in rebuilding everything in matter of weeks.
There were many players left from PSG last season but enrique has been successfully bringing so many new players to the club. Expecting mbappe to leave at the end of season will be giving PSG another problem that is not yet solving by enrique.
So far, no clue has been coming up from PSG regarding which player that will become mbappe's replacement in the future. We can argue that if psg will not be as strong as this time caused by mbappe hjave been contributing a lot to the clubs.

However when Mbappe leaves the team this summer I will be curious about how much PSG will keep up their dominance in the Ligue 1 as well. Because Mbappe has been playing the biggest role in his team to win this title for many years. When he leaves PSG will need to start stronger and more consistent as a team. They have added quite young and talented players to the team such as Kolo Muani, Ramos and so on. I hope they can benefit from these players at the highest level.

Then, did you count mbappe is the same as a whole players in the team? I think that's really wrong. Just count mbappe as someone who contributed a lot to the club. Mbappe has biggest role but this is the biggest valuation in french league as well.
Are you worrying PSG will not able to find someone who can play as good as mbappe?

There were many players who will able to be a replacement for him but not to be the same as mbappe itself. Don't worry. Everything will fine. Im seeing there's still no player who can fill mbappe's position.
It's not even muani and goncalo ramos. Singing osimhen or guirassy probably become the only best way for PSG.

But their goal is not to dominate the French league because that goal has been accomplished for over a decade now and it won't change for as long as PSG is by far the richest and most financially support club in Ligue 1. it is not a question of effort, but a question of money and I don't see why that would change in the near future.

PSG had the goal to dominate European football and they failed on all fronts. That is the biggest failure they have to accept and the plan was to become the best team in Europe and convince the top players to go to PSG that way. But now the project failed and Mbappe is jumping ship. The loss is now even bigger as Mbappe leaving the club sends a signal to all the young and ambitious talents that PSG couldn't do it with Mbappe, so the chances of doing it without Mbappe are even smaller.

Nice at the beginning of league can occupy second place under PSG this makes people start to thinking probably Nice can being an decent opponent for PSG for race title this season but Nice was unable to managed their consistency and their performance recently is very dissapointing because in the last 4 matches in Ligue 1 Nice only able to collect 2 points and these results is makes Nice position have to out from top 3 and 2nd place was taking over by Brest who can able to performing more consistent than them and last week too Nice was unable to win from weak team Clermont

Nice upcoming opponent is Toulouse but i think Toulose cannot be underestimate because Toulouse was unbeatable in the last 3 matches they even has successfully to gets the winning result from tough team Lille last week and indeed if we see based on head to head statistics Nice records is more good than Toulouse because Nice can able to gets 3 wins from 5 latest meeting and besides these records from the odds too i can see Nice is the favourite with odds @2.28 so it's very interesting to see the outcomes of this match whether Nice can able to return to the winning ways or they will be failed to win again

[Salahmu]

Regards Lyon matches against Strasbourg, Lyon are dominating the ball possession and still finding it difficult to make a win throughout the first half, I have much confidence that Lyon can win the match because of their presents performance and Strasbourg are not in good form now. Let see how the second half will go.

One thing I understand about football now is that no matter how dominating a club is it doesn't guarantee there winning because if dominance were to be the main factor of success to every club that means Manchester City and so many other good clubs would not have been losing matches because I have seen and watch different matches and sometimes the club that has the highest possession normally end up losing and sometimes they win, so perhaps aside from dominance I think one of the things those clubs should have been is consistency because if they are not consistent no matter how dominating they can be they will hardly win there match, so perhaps that's what happened on the match between Lyon and Strasbourg because Lyon was in a good shape than Strasbourg and they have the highest possession on that match because they dominated from the first half to the end of the match but were unable to score do to the fact that they lack consistency on that match but they were still very lucky to have won Strasbourg through penalty shootout.

Could Lens put an end to Lyon's winning streak of four games this Sunday? The game is at Lyon's stadium by the way. In their previous game against each other we watched a really nice competition. Maybe Lyon lost but they were able to fight back for quite a long time. The final score was 3-2 as well. Now Lyon are in a much better condition.

Thinking about this one might want to trust Lyon in this one but I can't really. Their form is great but I would still like to place a safer bet on this game. Double chance for Lyon has 1.40 odds and it is 1.70 for both teams to score. I think both will happen but I would prefer both teams to score to increase the total odds.
