French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[hahay]

The way the match ended was actually funny seeing how the goals was coming as if they were playing with teenagers, although I never realized that PSG will score them this much because at first the match was actually going well for Montpellier because right after PSG score them the first two goals before they could get to the end of the first half they had already equalize the goal, so at that points I was thinking that even if PSG win them but the goals will not be much but I didn't know that PSG has a big thing install for them on the second half by beating Montpellier 6:2 and even Mbappe manage to get his hard-trick

PSG really exploded in this game.    They got three draws in a row before this win you know and this was a huge way to put an end to the bad streak. Mbappe has nearly scored the half amount of the goals PSG have scored in the league so far. PSG would really be likely to be in trouble without him as long as they don't improve the team effort to get score contribution from as many players as possible.

For example if PSG become like Arsenal then they wouldn't rely on one player. You know how great Arsenal are on this work this season. Having a solid system is really important for a team to be more consistent.

But it's also possible, if for example Montpellier doesn't equalize the score at 2-2, then maybe Enrique would have pulled Mbappe in the second half because the team's position has already won. But yes, because Montpellier managed to equalize the score to 2-2 in the first half, it is clear that PSG will prove their quality again in the second half until yes, in the end Montpellier was completely destroyed at home because they were defeated by PSG with a big score of 2 -6.

But indeed, because Montpellier is only a team in the bottomzone of the standings so of course Montpellier not have the same quality as PSG, even though Montpellier lost by a big score, it seems like the score was just an ordinary score. Except, if Montpellier is also in the top zone of the standings and is in the competition for the top four, then that makes a big score like this a surprise but yes, however, it is not strange if PSG manages to win with a big score likethis, because basically PSG is a team that has big dominance in Ligue 1.

However, PSG's performance was indeed very strong, many did not expect that PSG would be able to score so many goals when they competed away from home, of course this really embarrassed the home team who had put pressure on them in the first half by scoring 2 goals even though PSG also scored 2 goals, but in the second half PSG really aggressively attacked, making it difficult for the home team until finally PSG achieved a fantastic victory. PSG really deserved it.

I was not surprised by PSG's victory at home to Montpellier even though the score was that high, because in Ligue1 PSG is still really strong and no team has been able to surpass PSG's toughness this season and the same goes for previous seasons. I didn't even expect that PSG would lose to any rival in Ligue1 in the remainder of this season so I really wasn't surprised by the big win that PSG got at home to Montpellier. Moreover, the Montpellier team is a lower ranked team which is quite easy for PSG to beat.

[Slow death]

The results of this round surprised me a little, especially in PSG's game against Montpellier, I expected PSG to win, but I didn't expect to see the number of goals they had in that game. PSG's first goal was incredible, Montpellier's defense simply watched the PSG player displaying his performance until he shot and scored, and minutes later again Montpellier's defense just watched the PSG players dominate Montpellier's defense until the mbappe scores the second goal. It was already clear that it would be a game in which Montpellier would be humiliated. but Montpellier scored 1 goal and with that they reduced the advantage that PSG had, I must say that it was a goal that PSG's defense did very badly. and again PSG's defense did shit

and Montpellier won a penalty and managed to score the second goal, so the game was tied. there were two goals that PSG conceded because of the stupidity the defense committed, and the 1 half ended. With that I soon changed my mind and thought it would be a very balanced game as PSG showed serious flaws in defense, but in the 2 half Mbappe scored a goal from a distant shot, it seems that Montpellier's goalkeeper is not very talented, because again I conceded another goal in the same way, a goal in favor of PSG, the disappointment was visible on the faces of the Montpellier players, and it was only the beginning because PSG later scored 2 more goals. In that game Montpellier tried hard and dreamed of a balanced game after having managed to draw the game. but their hope was completely crushed and they left with a humiliating defeat

One thing remains clear: PSG depends on Mbappe, but with this current coach this dependence is no longer as great as in the past, so I believe that if Mbappe leaves PSG, then PSG can get good players to take Mbappe's place. . At the beginning of the season I had a lot of doubts about this PSG coach, but today I see that it was a good choice by the PSG management. With this victory, PSG has a 12 point advantage over the team in second place and it is clear that PSG will be champions again

[tygeade]

Montpellier vs PSG
PSG are expecting the 3 points tonight even though they are playing at Stade de la Mosson it doesn't matter, Montpellier can withstand pressure that will come from PSG.

After three consecutive draws, PSG were finally able to get three points again by beating Montpellier, a team that could be said to have not survived the relegation zone.
The victory achieved by PSG can be said to be something natural considering that the two teams are very different in strength, that is why PSG was able to win with a landslide score of 6-2 and Kylian Mbappe succeeded in scoring a hat trick and that makes him even further away from the other strikers on the list of Ligue 1 top scorers this season with 24 goals and second place Jonathan David with 15 goals, so it is certain that Kylian Mbappe will be the top scorer.

Brest only drew against Lille, and their position might be shifted by Lille who is in fourth position if Brest loses many points in the remaining matches this season.

They were always capable of getting a win, they just didn't really want to push themselves too much, used a bit of rotation in some of them as well. The thing is that we are talking about a team that will take a while to lose that title run, even after Mbappe leaves they will probably not have any problems and they will cause a lot of issues for sure.

I think it's clear that we are going to end up with better results, we just need to give it some time. I hope that PSG does get a competition though, some super wealthy guy buying Lyon or something, that would make it much better and the competitiveness in the league would skyrocket, plus everyone will watch a lot more games so the quality of the league would go up too.

[Jegileman]

In French Ligue1, a team like PSG will always dominate the league and will not be able to be overtaken by any team here because PSG's own strength is much better than its rivals, so in every season PSG can always get the trophy in Ligue1. Meanwhile, for the UEFA Champions League, PSG must be able to work hard because the levels are very different and the opponents they face are not weak teams, so until last season PSG still had not succeeded in lifting the highest trophy in the Champions League.

The Ligue 1 competition cannot be compared to what we see in other European leagues, even on rating of the top five European leagues, Ligue 1 is the least of them because of the less competitive football taken place there. I was thinking they would have won their first Champions League trophy when they had the best players in their teams, the likes of Messi, Neymar and Mbappe; but still they could not win it. I don’t know the type of squad they need now to become very dominant in that competition to be able to win the trophy now. There’s no doubt that every year they must qualify because no other team in their league can stand them to beat them for the league trophy. They just need to strengthen their squad and have a good manager that can coach them to win their first champions league trophy. This year is not an exception, I hope they can try their best to win it.

PSG really deserved it.

Yesterday's match between PSG and Montpellier exceeded all expectations, particularly considering Montpellier's poor form leading up to the game. Even as someone who follows football closely, I found it surprising that PSG managed to score a remarkable six goals. Throughout the ongoing league competition, PSG has struggled to achieve such a high goal tally, making their performance against Montpellier truly exceptional.


The fact that they hadn't scored six goals in a single match this season prior to yesterday's game speaks volumes about the magnitude of their achievement. PSG demonstrated incredible efficiency in front of goal, capitalizing on nearly every opportunity they created. Reports indicate that they fashioned a total of nine clear-cut chances during the match, an impressive statistic in itself. To convert six of those chances into goals showcases PSG's clinical finishing and offensive prowess. Overall, PSG's performance against Montpellier was nothing short of outstanding, solidifying their position as one of the top teams in the league and leaving fans in awe of their attacking capabilities.

Moreover, the Montpellier team is a lower ranked team which is quite easy for PSG to beat.

Of course, it wasn't a surprising result especially as PSG were the away favorites. What surprised me was when Montpellier was able to force PSG to a 2-2 draw in the first half, but PSG improved in the second half with an additional 4 goals. Kylian Mbappe scored a hat-trick in this match which means he has scored 24 goals in 14 appearances in Ligue 1 this season.

Currently, several players have been called up to defend their national teams. France have 2 friendlies for the rest of the month where they will play against Germany and Chile. This is a match that may not be very important for all the teams from these three countries, so in my opinion the coach doesn't need to field his best players throughout the match, especially if he doesn't want his players to get injured.

In French Ligue1, a team like PSG will always dominate the league and will not be able to be overtaken by any team here because PSG's own strength is much better than its rivals, so in every season PSG can always get the trophy in Ligue1. Meanwhile, for the UEFA Champions League, PSG must be able to work hard because the levels are very different and the opponents they face are not weak teams, so until last season PSG still had not succeeded in lifting the highest trophy in the Champions League.

I think losing Mbappe next season will have a significant impact on the club. Mbappe is the world's best striker and one of the greatest finishers. PSG can dominate Ligue 1 because Mbappe scores goals in almost every match. Of course PSG can look for a replacement player at a level one level below Mbappe, because with the quality of their current players I think they can still dominate Ligue 1, although not as dominant as when they were with Mbappe.

Mbappe was the only one at PSG after Neymar and messi's departure. His departure is certainly a big red flag for PSG especially for the next season. If he leaves there will surely be someone to replace him but there is enough doubt among fans as to who will be his equal. We have seen that since he announced his departure from the club, the coach has been reluctant to give him a chance to play. But he proved once again that he is still the best, his hat-trick against Montpellier once again made his fans realize what kind of player he is. However, even if PSG can top the League 1 this season, it is almost clear that their condition may worsen in the next season. Coach Luis Enrique is now heavily criticized on how to handle the team.

Neymar Messi has left the club, but the club has not stopped their activities, so when Mbappe leaves the club, PSG may hire another player to replace him. Even if they hire another player, maybe PSG can't sign a player like Mbappe at the moment because Mbappe is the best player at the moment. 

When Messi and Neymar played together for PSG, we expected PSG to achieve the highest in the season but we saw PSG exit from the Super Sixteen in the Champions League. PSG has not qualified for the quarter-finals of the Champions League this season without Neymar and Messi, so if Mbappe leaves, who will replace him, PSG's performance will not be blocked at all.

Moreover, the Montpellier team is a lower ranked team which is quite easy for PSG to beat.

Indeed, PSG's victory is not surprising because PSG's performance is very strong in League 1 so beating Montpellier is not a difficult thing for PSG because they are not a tough enough opponent and they are also not a top club. Perhaps what makes people a little surprised is that PSG is still able to create lots of goals in the remainder of this season even though if you look at it, their goal productivity should have decreased considering that the players' stamina has been depleted, but PSG still plays tough in whatever match they face, thanks to this victory, PSG is even more confident at the top of the standings and when they focus on the League Champions PSG won't be that worried even if they lose a few points because it doesn't affect PSG's position.

I look at the match schedule for the rest of the season in League 1. I think PSG won't experience any difficulties because their opponents are not that tough, so from now on PSG is a little calm because they only need to develop a strategy to face Barcelona in the Champions League match because PSG's big obstacle at the moment is only that match. Apart from that, PSG can still face it easily. Barcelona has also improved its performance so PSG must carefully prepare themselves before meeting Barcelona.

PSG really exploded in this game.    They got three draws in a row before this win you know and this was a huge way to put an end to the bad streak. Mbappe has nearly scored the half amount of the goals PSG have scored in the league so far. PSG would really be likely to be in trouble without him as long as they don't improve the team effort to get score contribution from as many players as possible.

For example if PSG become like Arsenal then they wouldn't rely on one player. You know how great Arsenal are on this work this season. Having a solid system is really important for a team to be more consistent.

Barcola is already a weak wing. He cannot contribute much. On the other hand, if Mbappe leaves the team, I do not know who will direct the offensive power of the team. Currently, there is a PSG that plays entirely for Mbappe. He scored a hattrick in the last match. A big problem awaits PSG without him. They should buy such a player that he should not be reminded of Mbappe's absence, but there is no such player in the world right now.

Mbappe is very effective in scoring goals. He scored 24 goals and David followed him with 15 goals. This year is probably his last season, but he is playing with great dedication in his last season. As a result, he will become the top scorer. He may also receive the award for the best player of the French league. Mbappe is an incredible talent. It is every team's dream to have him.

After the international break ends later, PSG will directly face Marseille in the match week 27 of Ligue 1, Marseille who have just qualified for the quarterfinals of the Europa League is certainly not a worthy opponent for PSG, currently Marseille is ranked 7th in the Ligue 1 standings and it is important for them to be able to get a win in order to at least maintain their chances of qualifying for the Europa League next season,  While PSG of course the game will no longer be decisive for their current position which is only one step away from winning Ligue 1, so I think PSG will probably play relaxed in that match but still try to win.

PSG's main focus this season is definitely the Champions League, because so far they have managed to get many trophies in the French league but still nil in terms of Champions League trophies, I think PSG management of course will not be satisfied if they cannot break their failure to win the Champions League trophy so far and that is why PSG continue to hunt many star players at high prices so far,  whereas if they want of course they don't need to spend a lot of money if only to target the Ligue 1 trophy, this season is Mbape's last season at PSG and I am quite curious whether Mbappe will be able to give the Champions League trophy as a farewell gift to PSG later?

PSG are in excellent form right now. Luis Enrique has been able to completely stabilize the team. The bonding between the players is now stronger. Since the understanding between the players is good now, PSG's overall performance is also quite strong.

PSG performed brilliantly against Montpellier. Mbappe's performance in particular was excellent. He scored the goal in this match Mbappe. Mbappe did the same assist. Also Vitinha's performance was very good in this match. Vitinha has one goal and two assists. PSG's overall gameplay was very good, and every attack was planned. A total of 16 shots were taken by PSG players in this match, 9 of which were on target.

It's a shame that Monaco failed to secure a win at home after only drawing 2-2 against Lorient. Both teams played quite hard and the statistics also show that the two teams played quite evenly. But there was one unique thing in this match where both teams opened the scoring with an own goal from their players and a sight like this is very rare in a football match.

On the other hand, Monaco could have won because they scored the second goal in the 60th minute through Fofana but unfortunately they failed to maintain that narrow lead after Lorient didn't give up until the final minute. Bakayoko saved Lorient from defeat after scoring a goal in the 90+4 minute and forcing Monaco to only share one point. This match was also marked by a red card received by one of the players from each team. This result made Monaco fail to reach second place in the standings after Brest also only drew 1-1 against Lille.

I think PSG achieved a lot of draws because they were more focused on the UCL because even a draw did not affect its position at the top of the standings because it widened the gap with the teams below it. Now PSG has a long gap before the UCL match, therefore PSG played well before Entering the international break was to correct the previous mistake of only being able to achieve 1 point.

Without Mbappè, PSG will certainly experience difficulties, but the board will not remain silent, even if Mbappè ends up leaving the team, they will replace him with a player who has almost the same performance so that it does not affect PSG's stability in the future.

[Luzin]

Without Mbappè, PSG will certainly experience difficulties, but the board will not remain silent, even if Mbappè ends up leaving the team, they will replace him with a player who has almost the same performance so that it does not affect PSG's stability in the future.

So Enrique shouldn't have to think about trying to play without Mbappe before he leaves. Because it is proven that without Mbappe many PSG matches are not optimal. So Enrique must make the most of Mbappe before he leaves in pursuit of at least one title. Maybe Ligue 1 or UCL. But the one who might have a great chance is the Ligue 1 champion. Regarding Mbappe's replacement, I haven't seen them have that to date.

[vennali]

PSG's most decisive players of the season. Mbappe has been crucial this season with Neymar and Messi out of the team and has proved his worth. Also, Mbappe is the top goal scorer of PSG's history with 250 goals for the club while Cavani has 200. Mbappe has also been 2nd on the list of assists of all time for PSG. Only Angel di Maria has more assists than him. Now, there's a high chance that he moves after the season. How will PSG cope? New signings?

AS Monaco shouldn't just have a draw with Lorient, they're just a team that's currently struggling to get away from the relegation zone but could cause a surprise at AS Monaco home match.

What amazed me even more about Lorient was that they scored their second goal after one of their players received a red card. There's no more competition and racing for the Ligue 1 title for AS Monaco, but they should be able to maximize their chances of second place.

[Hanadawa]

Mbappe was the only one at PSG after Neymar and messi's departure. His departure is certainly a big red flag for PSG especially for the next season. If he leaves there will surely be someone to replace him but there is enough doubt among fans as to who will be his equal. We have seen that since he announced his departure from the club, the coach has been reluctant to give him a chance to play. But he proved once again that he is still the best, his hat-trick against Montpellier once again made his fans realize what kind of player he is. However, even if PSG can top the League 1 this season, it is almost clear that their condition may worsen in the next season. Coach Luis Enrique is now heavily criticized on how to handle the team.

I think everyone knows how influential Mbappe is on PSG's performance. But Mbappe left PSG because of his own wishes, and there was nothing Luis Enrique or the club management could do. What we have to think about next season is how to find players like Mbappe, or at least those who can fill the place left by Mbappe. As I said before it is very impossible to find a player like Mbappe. But it can at least have 50% of Mbappe's level.

Of course PSG will play worse next season because Mbappe leaves. But I think PSG still has a big chance to win the League title again. They really have to try harder to get it because there will be a significant decline in performance in the PSG game. I haven't seen any other team that can be a competitor to PSG in the league even after PSG loses Mbappe next season.

AS Monaco shouldn't just have a draw with Lorient, they're just a team that's currently struggling to get away from the relegation zone but could cause a surprise at AS Monaco home match.

What amazed me even more about Lorient was that they scored their second goal after one of their players received a red card. There's no more competition and racing for the Ligue 1 title for AS Monaco, but they should be able to maximize their chances of second place.

This is a surprising result where the favored Monaco won the match actually had to draw in the match. The draw obtained made Lille closer to Monaco's points so that currently only three points adrift. Though the match was a chance for Monaco to be ranked second, where Brest also played in the match in the same president when facing Lille.

For competition for the title of title, it no longer has an opportunity for Brest and Monaco because PSG is quite comfortable at the top of the standings, so that competition is almost certain to be much heavier. Now the task of Monaco is to maintain the position of qualifying for the Champions League zone because if they are negligent then Lille could have pursued their position in the third standings, so Monaco must play more consistently to maintain the position of the standings.
