French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[pusaka]

Still, I do not think they care about this league title at all. All they care about is the Champions League competition and they are going to concentrate on that more and more.

PSG played with many players in the second team then made first teams players enter including Kylian Mbappe since the beginning of the second half. It should be said that PSG were controlling the game, making more attacks but were less efficient and the final result obviously showed that they underestimated their opponent.
Indeed, I agree with you that Enrique doesn't care anymore about Ligue 1 since they are the champions regardless of the remaining results, almost. The team is concentrating more on UEFA Champions League and how to win it for the first time in their life, and maybe the last one

It makes sense that they place more importance on their Champions League matches than in Ligue 1, because it is common knowledge that they always put the Champions League as their main target every season. Moreover, now they have a very long distance from the teams below them, and they will also become Ligue 1 champions this season.
Their main focus is the Champions League, they want the title they have never gotten so far. This season is also the season where they have a big chance of being in the final, because they will face Borussia Dortmund, who they have also beaten the team from the Bundesliga in the group stage. They will use all their abilities to be able to place themselves in the final round this season.

There is no need to be surprised by this because in the French League only PSG has enough money to bring in star players even though in the end they will all go elsewhere because PSG is only successful in the domestic league. In fact, there were many people who expected other teams to have more abilities than PSG, but that didn't happen. Because other teams don't have enough money to buy the best players in the transfer market so they only use the players they have without hunting for more stars in the transfer market.

Money has the most important role so that PSG becomes the dominant team in this league, they can always buy the players they want unless the player is not interested in playing for PSG, other clubs in this league need rich investors like the owner of PSG to be able to do the same thing , if not then only PSG will be champions with only occasionally failing to become champions.

You are right and I agree with you. Even though every league has financial fair play rules, PSG is still a very rich club and they can buy any player they want. The rumors circulating after Mbappe left on a free transfer were actually very detrimental to them, but PSG already intends to bring in Osimhen to join PSG next season. It is the power of money that makes PSG dominate in Ligue 1. I don't see any other team being able to beat their current dominance. But of course their main motivation is to win the Champions League. Because they have never won the league championship in their history.

PSG today had to postpone their championship after a draw against Le Havre, today's 3-3 draw certainly made PSG should be able to win or at least draw the next match against Toulouse in Ligue 1, what Enrique did was of course right by fielding his reserve squad today against the relegation team, but honestly I did not expect that PSG would be able to get a negative result against Le Havre,  Several times this season Enrique has fielded their reserve players but always get negative results so I began to think if indeed the reserve squad owned by PSG at this time is really not qualified, just a reminder of course we all still remember when PSG also got negative results when fielding a reserve squad in the games against Clermont Foot and also Reims.

At the moment Enrique is focusing on the Champions League as the main target, so they keep many main players in today game, indeed bad results in Ligue 1 no longer affect the position and also PSG chances of winning the trophy but with the negative results shown by PSG's reserve squad today certainly forces PSG next season to immediately fix their squad.

[Salahmu]

However this wining has already helped Lille alot because they now have a close point with Brest and also the chance to qualify to the champions League next season if they continue to win their matches, although their next match with metz is very certain they would win the match because metz is not strong enough so perhaps through that match they will be able to bring Brest down from the fourth position they are.

Lille lost 1-0 against Monaco after winning three matches in a row. 3 points against Monaco would have kept Lille in third place on the points table. And could have qualified for the Champions League. Lille is now 1 point behind Brest.

Brest have dropped points in their last two matches. The Brest team lost against Monaco and Lyon. And if Brest's players can't improve this performance, then Brest won't be able to keep the third place in the points table. Lille's overall performance compared to Brest is now very good and tidy.

Currently Lille is still on a very good position because since they have been able to win their match against Metz gave them more opportunity against Brest, however Brest on the other hand is currently having a difficult time with Rennes because their match seem more tougher than I expected because I was thinking since Brest has been so far above Rennes on the table they could easily beat them but reversal seem to be the cause.

Brest is not really on a good shape on this match and Rennes was good enough to utilize the opportunity and score them two goals before ten minutes of the first half and it was from their Brest started putting in more effort and was able to score one goal before the end of the first half making it 2:1 and surprisingly they manage to score immediately they came back second half and was already beaten Rennes 3:2 but do to their inconsistency they could not defend properly because on the 90 minutes they were already playing 4:4, however while I was typing Brest managed to score their wining goal on the extra time making it 5:4 against Rennes.

[adultcrypto]

What an interesting match today between Stade Rennais and Stade Brestois. This should be the most interesting French match I have watched in a long time. So much skills and scoring techniques from two average teams. The match kept swinging from home win to draw and finally to away win where it went from two goals to one in first half and ended four goals to five in full time in favor of the away team which was Brestoi.

Just imagine what the future of PSG would be without mbapee, a mess cause I hardly see what they woudl play when all the stars are off from the club, although they are rich enough to buy new players for themselves.

Even when Mbappe have not joined PSG, they have always been a top team when they displaced Lyon, Lille and Marseille who were the major contenders then. Mbappe just came and made it easier for them but that does not mean that without him that PSG will stop dominating the

[Jody.Drummer]

Are they just going to let Le Havre embarrass them at home? I don't see that as making sense.

I agree with you on this because at the level of PSG, every win is important to them if not for anything, for the records. The coach also need the wins for his career, even the players. They will play the match competitively and with the squad I'm seeing, they will win the match easily.

Lol, they could only draw in this match and they would almost have been humiliated by Le Havre if they couldn't score a goal in the last minute. I understand that the results of this match may not have an impact on them in the Ligue 1 standings, but just imagine, with their levels being so different, Paris Saint Germain will have to try hard to prevent them from losing.

they fell behind before they could equalize at 1-1. However, before halftime in the first half, they had to fall behind 1-2 again. In the second half they even had to trail 1-3 to their guests. Luckily they were able to score 2 goals to make the score equal again. I think they underestimated their opponent too much, because this should have been a victory for them. This is what I don't like about Paris Saint Germain, it seems as if they don't consider all matches important to them. Meanwhile, for a club, every match should be an important match, especially if it is an easy opponent for them.

Agree with what you say, even without Mbappe they are a big team in Ligue 1, and they have all the advantages that other teams don't have, especially in their financial capabilities. With their abilities like that, they should be able to make better use of them, they can bring in players who can make a big contribution.
But what I regret is why they can't regenerate and build the foundation from the bottom. They only carry out an instant process, namely bringing in players who are star players. I don't blame that, because their ability is very capable of getting it, no matter how much money they have to spend. However, up to now they have not been able to achieve great success. They always fail in the Champions League, I won't say Ligue 1, because in Ligue 1 they really dominate. It is proven that they have never won a title in Europe's biggest competition. It's not easy, but at least they have to take steps that can get them there, not just do an instant process.

That's right, PSG management should change their transfer policy to build a balanced squad, meaning they should also orbit their academy players rather than continuing to recruit star players at high prices to expect instant results. If this is done, PSG will find a solid squad and will produce its own golden generation. It's not wrong to recruit star players, but we have seen for ourselves what they can offer, still failing to win the Champions League. Financially, there is no doubt about PSG, they can easily build Los Galacticos like Madrid.

If PSG still does not change its policy in building a squad, it will be difficult for PSG to realize its ambition to win the Champions League trophy, and even becoming a team challenging for the title will not happen. To win Ligue 1, PSG only needs to maximize their second tier players, we know competitive level of Ligue 1 at this time. It is very difficult for any team to suppress PSG dominance, unfortunately the ease of competition is also another factor why PSG always fails in the Champions League. Their opportunity to reach the final round this season is quite open, but talking about PSG chances of winning the trophy is quite difficult.

[Silence Scream]

One step at a time, Today's game is PSG's 31st matches so far this season, leaving them with 3 games left until the end of the season, and currently Paris St. German is topping their league with 11 points ahead of Monaco, Therefore, PSG losing of this game will give Monaco a chance to still be on the race of lifting the French Lique 1 trophy if at all Monaco wins their match because that would now reduce the points to 8 points, whereas at the moment they will have 9 points left to context until the end of the season, So I don't see PSG jeopardizing with this game today because of the Champions League game with Borussia Dortmund, especially when this game is taking place in their home soil, winning this match is super important because winning this game today has guaranteed them of the trophy.

Even with these beautiful records and achievements this season, they are breaking people's heart tonight and destroying the bet of gamblers. Of all days, it is today PSG have decided to lose at home to a small team that was just promoted seasons ago in the apex division and who are already close to returning to where they came from. Eighty-four minutes of play and the match is still standing at two goals to three against PSG, a result that will see many gamblers lose fortune. The only people that will escape loss tonight are those who played goals which was actually a more feasible option if not that a win appeared more conservative. Going forward, it is dangerous to play PSG because people may not know what option that will not make them lose their money.

PSG's struggles, especially against a team they should dominate, are puzzling. They're certainly prioritising Champions League. The huge prize makes sense, but domestic matchups cant be ignored. This discrepancy calls into doubt their ability to balance between fronts. For PSG betting, they'll shuffle players before a huge Champions League match. Resting key players disrupts the rhythm, resulting in unforeseen effects. Be careful not to naively bet on them to win. Are they in a Champions League run? Is their lineup weakened? If those conditions match, goal bets may be better. Over/under, etc. It reduces danger when PSG is unpredictable.

The fact that they drew with Le Havre in extra time confirms your claim. They drew 3-3 and scored the 3rd goal from a penalty in extra time. Paris Saint Germain becomes a truly unrecognizable team when they rotate. It is especially a very unsuccessful defensive zone. Since the point difference in the league is high, they can rotate easily, but bettors need to be very careful about this situation.

Enrique gave other players the opportunity, especially in the Le Havre match, to become pure strikers in the front line and rested several other core players to conserve energy. Likewise, players who were the main starters, such as Dembele and others, were withdrawn in the early minutes of the second half. what Enrique does to maintain the balance of his team's squad, plus the players remain in top condition ahead of the Borrussia Dortmund match. The battle in the Domestic League has ended, Paris Saint Germain has confirmed that no team will overtake them. because the team below their ranking, AS Monaco, lost in the match against Lyon. So, Enrique's mission is currently focused on the Champions League semifinal match against Dormund.

Well, IMO, for me Enrique knows what he is doing for his team's squad, rotating his players is one part of his plan ahead of the Champions League match. Maybe Enrique is preparing his squad to perform with competitive performance when they visit Germany, Dortmund's home ground. I have a suspicion, or you could say speculation, that Paris Saint-Germain will win the battle against Borussia Dortmund even though the match will be held at Signal Iduna Park. To be sure, there are only a few days left until this match will be held. for Ligue 1, the team they are playing against is not a strong team, especially if PSG is able to beat Dortmund in the first leg. Thus, don't be surprised if Enrique will maximize his team's focus on the Champions League and many players will be rotated in their battles in this competition. So, yeah, don't expect too much from PSG Ligue 1. Because now their focus is on the Champions League.

Since they attach importance to Champions League matches, it is normal to have such results in league matches. It is necessary to pay attention to these matches, especially when betting. PSG always has to prepare specially for the Champions League. They may not have cared about this match because they were very comfortable with points in the league. As I said, it is necessary to pay attention to such matches when betting.

Enrique is a coach who knows what he is doing. It is very normal for him to focus on the Champions League and rest the players. I can make a criticism like this: PSG has the quality to field a good squad with all its players and that's why they had to win this league match.

[redsun114]

It is a huge shock to me that La Havre got a tie in that game and to be fair I think PSG almost lost it as well, they got the tie at the last minutes and I feel like that was terrible display by PSG, and Mbappe got in after a while but he didn't really show any presence neither, it looks like they didn't know what to do and they were all shocked.

I believe that PSG playing like this could lose to Dortmund as well, I mean there is a reason why Dortmund finished first in the group and PSG finished second in the very same group, and if PSG keeps this up then they could lose to Dortmund as well. I know many are expecting PSG to win, but Dortmund has been great at UCL all season long and I am sensing that we could see some surprise and Dortmund could be at finals.

I personally undo the intention to bet for PSG because I think,maybe PSG will better prepare the squad to play in the Champion League. After all, even if PSG loses by Le Havre, but in factPSG will still be at thetop of the Ligue 1 standings. But indeed,falling behind with a score of 1-3 is a bad result because after all,even though PSG doesnot have a target towin butstill, playing at home against Le Havre ofcourse PSG must haveprestige so that PSGdo notfall behind with a score of 1-3 before, because it is a badresult. Although indeed,in the end PSG managedto equalize the score to 3-3 and thus, PSG still managed not to be humiliated athome.

Fortunately, PSG can actually be said to have won the French Legaue this season because the distance between PSG and the runners up, Monaco, is quite far. there are 12 points. Isn't that quite a lot of distance, right? For this reason, PSG probably won't be too confused about the match in the French League. because their main focus is on UCL, as it is their dream to win the UCL trophy. This might be a golden opportunity for them, before Mbappe leaves PSG.


However, still, when you see PSG not succeeding from opponents they shouldn't have, it's a little annoying. because there are many people who place bets on these events. SO, better for PSG also to optimize all chances even in this local league. But, not too much forcing that will probably danger their squad condition.

For PSG, the scores no longer matter because Monaco lost points and they officially declared the championship. It was an expected result in the French league and I congratulate them for getting this result. The squad value is already much higher than other teams. Success for PSG must now go beyond the French league. That's why they should at least play in the final of the Champions League. This is of great importance.

Congratulations to PSG for winning the league trophy yet again this season. When will the congratulations stops and we have another team to congratulate just like what happened in the Bundesliga this season. At the start of every season in the Ligue 1, it is always and already predicted that PSG will be the winner because no team in that league can stand them and their excellent performance. They are already above that league and need to show their strength somewhere else. Just like you’ve mentioned, going to play in the champions league finals with at least be a great achievement to them and not just winning same trophy every year for the past ten years. Congratulations to them but we want to see them win the champions league as well to confirm their strength as an undefeated team they are in the Ligue 1 to represent all Europe after winning the champions league.

[Leviathan.007]

A good news in PSG and a good move from this team. It seems after years of buying expensive superstar players like Messi and Neymar now after working with Enrique they want to start investing in younger players and this makes PSG to have a better future.
Warren Zaïre-Emery the 18-year-old young talent of PSG ended his contract with PSG until 2029. Christophe Galtier the former coach of PSG is the one who trused Warren Zaïre-Emery back in 2022-2023. Currently, this young player is even playing for the French national team.

[Weawant]

Today recorded so many games in the Ligue 1 and the most fascinating results i saw today was that of Brest, this is a ream that's see as a weak or fairly average team so getting such victory in such margin actually caught my attention because i would doubt at the beginning of the game that they will be able to achieve that much from this match but then to my surprise rhsy achieved a result they haven't gotten before from this season.

Nice and Marseille also had brilliant results too which i consider a good victory for their position and they are all scaling up their points making it much more closer to the top of the table and been able to maintain a position amongst the top four this season of which I'm optimistic that the gap between the top team and than my not be That much as PSG has not been winning all of their games in recent times and it's causing their points to drop while the others seem to be closing the gap gradually but then I'm sure PSG will definitely make sure to win the Ligue 1.

The champions league has seem to be the major distraction for PSG this season but then if considered, it will be seen as a good distraction for them because I'd they eventually succeed in the champions league a s are able to get the trophy or get to finish at the second position, it will be a fair and good one, they have actually gotten to the finals of the champions league before but getting there again will be a good one for them.

It's not a secret that Champions League is the main target for PSG, not only this season, but every season since they have spent big amount of money to sign great players. PSG is a young club founded in 1970 that means they dont have rich history. Aiming Champions League is one way for them to create a big history for a Ligue 1 club, because Ligue 1 have only one club that have won Champions League, which is Marseille.

This season is another opportunity for them to write their history. They have big chance to reach the Champions League final, because they seem to be favorite to win the match against Borussia Dortmund. Enrique will push his effort to their best limit to achieve this big dream, and this is the objective reason PSG signed him as the manager.

Winning Champions League will be their ultimate goal and it might have a huge impact on PSG future. Since the team was declared champion thanks to the failure of Monaco away in front of Lyon by 3 goals to 2, then its concentration on winning Champions League star will be better.
Otherwise poor Monaco made a huge mistake letting Lyon win against them since Lille are now just three points away from them.
