French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[wmaurik]

It is indeed not easy for every player who is just debuting, they certainly have to make adjustments and other factors to be able to develop themselves in a better direction, PSG has recently appeared more open with its squad and everyone is aware of that, but basically there is no banquet that makes PSG have to be amazed there because the team in the French League 1 is indeed not very productive and effective so PSG's ability in the league is very guaranteed.

I am not even that amazed and surprised by PSG's appearance in the French Ligue 1 this season because PSG still has more strength than other teams in Ligue 1 at this time. And for the matter of new players, I think it always takes time to be able to adjust to the team and also to the colleagues in the team so that it cannot be denied anymore because it is like that every season in all Leagues. But I am still a little curious about PSG's strength when the team competes outside Ligue 1 because this season is the season where PSG did not have Mbappe as their mainstay player before.

After Mbappe left PSG, I thought PSG would be an average team again and other teams would be able to match them. But 2 wins with 10 goals and 1 conceded made me think that this season it seems like PSG has become a solid team and plays collectively as a team, not just making one person as a target man. PSG's gameplay in the first 2 league matches really surprised me. It was beyond my expectation. The next match is against LOSC, a team that also collected 6 points. It will be an interesting match. But it seems that with PSG's current performance it will still be difficult for other teams to beat their dominance in Ligue 1.

As I often say, PSG's game is much more solid in every line and much more fluid, not focusing on one player like when Mbappe was still at the club, losing Mbappe can be said to be a good thing this season PSG is more productive in terms of goals.
yes if we talk about PSG's current opponents in week 3 of league 1, I am still optimistic that PSG can win at Lille's home later, but Lille also cannot be underestimated by every opponent including PSG, most likely Lille will give a surprise in the match later, and PSG must be more focused in this match if not Lille can steal points.

But the fact is when Mbappe was still at the club the coach and other players relied on Mbappe and most of all Mbappe who created many victories in every PSG match this player has been a top scorer for years at PSG maybe his departure also provided a lesson for other players to be more focused and give their best performance for the club and it is proven that all players can play well and solidly. In this 3rd match I think it is quite difficult to predict because Lille is also not a weak club this club played well in the Europa League qualifiers and qualified and could even eliminate Fenerbahce so Lille could be a serious opponent for PSG especially this match will be held at the Pierre-Mauroy stadium Lille headquarters so PSG must really prepare this match well.

Some may not have noticed but Brest are at the bottom of the table at the moment. We remember how they finished last season in the top four and secured a place in the Champions League. However, they had a poor start after losing to Marseille and Lens. On the other hand, their goal difference will also make it difficult for them to overtake other teams if they have the same number of points.

This week they have to break this curse and they have to win against St Etienne. It is certainly not a difficult task and if Brest lose again then they will be even further behind. That will hurt their expectations who initially wanted to continue the positive results in the previous season and honestly this will not be good at all.

Last season Brest can occupy 3rd place with only gets 7 loses and this makes them deserved to playing at Champion league for the first time and a bit surprised to see they have poor start this season because they got 2 consecutive lost from Marseille and Lens and actually their manager Éric Roy didn't do the major changes because their current squad is not so different compared to last season but indeed seems Brest only required more time to reach to their top performance again

Actually this weekend Brest have good chances to bounce back because their next opponent St Etienne is not too strong compared to Lens and Marseille moreover i can see St Etienne also not so different compared to Brest because St Etienne still hard struggling to gets their first winning this season too and i am sure Brest can able to overcomes St Etienne and earn their first 3 points this season

Yes you are right, actually the results they got were normal because they are the best team in Ligue 1. What many people are talking about is because they did it without Mbappe and they are not used to playing without Mbappe, that's all. So many people started to react to what Paris Saint Germain could show this season.
of course new players will need time to adapt to the team's game. But in the process some are fast and some are a little late in adjusting to the team's game.
Oh yes, we still can't map which teams can perform well in week 2, we still need a few more matches to see which teams can compete with Paris Saint Germain.

[Lida93]

So far PSG have started the season perfectly, 10 goals in 2 match is a really good statistic.
Many people think that PSG's goal productivity this season will decrease greatly when they are left behind by Kylian Mbappe, but in fact this is not true. If PSG can maintain this kind of performance in Ligue 1, then they will retain the Ligue 1 title this season.

Now, do you really believe PSG can qualify for the last 16 of the Champions League when they are drawn against the following teams?

Home: Manchester City, Atlético Madrid, PSV Eindhoven and Girona.
Away: Bayern Munich, Arsenal, Salzburg and Stuttgart.

With Kylian Mbappe out of PSG we should be expecting to see them score as many goals as possible with each game because the searchlight and mentality of the team has turned around away from the focus on a single key player to do the finishing, to a team work where equal interdependence interplay within the squad. Now anyone in front can expressly score as the opportunity present itself.

I see PSG getting stronger than they were which entails that Mbappe absence wouldn't in any significant way affect their performance both in the domestic and European competition. They have quality players to do the job of retaining their title and also beating their way through the round of 16 and beyond in the champions league too. Need that I remind you that some of those clubs ain't in a current better form or with a UCL experience than PSG.

It is too early for us to say that the loss of Mbappe does not have a big influence on PSG, indeed in the last two matches PSG was able to win with an absolute score over its opponents but we also do not deny that teams like le havre and montpellier are not strong teams that have been able to make it difficult for PSG so far, in my opinion the sharpness shown by PSG in the two matches is none other than due to the weak defense owned by the opposing team and I'm quite sure that PSG may have a very difficult time if they face a team that has a solid defense later, indeed so far we cannot rule out that PSG is the only team that has a great chance to win Ligue 1 but I really hope that there will be a team that at least will be able to make it difficult for PSG to win Ligue 1 this season.

Even though it's still around the first 2 games of the season, in fact PSG doesn't have much influence without Mbappe. I agree that there are still many other strong teams that could make it difficult for PSG to defend the Ligue 1 title, but I think PSG has a good mentality to maintain this performance throughout the season. PSG is a favorite team that has a lot of quality players in its squad, so I don't really doubt them in Ligue 1 even though Mbappe has joined Real Madrid.

Teams like Lille, Monaco and Lens can basically be considered competitors, but I really doubt the stability of these teams' performance even though so far they have also managed to win the first 2 matches. In Ligue 1, I think only PSG can always be the favorite.

[Palakka]

I look at Real Madrid and they are far from the performance expected from Mbappé. There were also matches in Paris Saint-Germain during Mbappé's term where performances were far from expectations. I wonder if Mbappé thinks more about himself than the team. Paris Saint-Germain is by far the highest quality team in the French League right now. Real Madrid, on the other hand, has only collected five points in the Spanish league and Mbappé has not contributed anything. I think these are in Mbappé's destiny. Paris Saint-Germain may reach the finals of the Champions League this year, how do we know?

It is indeed not easy for every player who is just debuting, they certainly have to make adjustments and other factors to be able to develop themselves in a better direction, PSG has recently appeared more open with its squad and everyone is aware of that, but basically there is no banquet that makes PSG have to be amazed there because the team in the French League 1 is indeed not very productive and effective so PSG's ability in the league is very guaranteed.

However, it is different from the Champions, it will be difficult for them, yes we know it is very difficult there, especially the PSG pot in the Champions is quite difficult for them, I think so, but talking about how far their success is, I think this season will not be much different from what they got in the Champions last season because the competition there is more effective and productive in every club that competes or is faced.

Mbappe has not shown good form in his three matches with Madrid, but I think at the moment Mbappe just hasn't got the right momentum to show his quality as a striker so we can say if he is still in the adaptation stage in madrid, maybe what Mbappe showed in Madrid at the moment will be a laughing stock from PSG fans but Mbappe is just waiting for time to silence the taunts.
PSG goal productivity at the moment looks very impressive and shows no influence from losing Mbappe, but it is too early for us to say if they are still better without Mbappe, because after all they  not yet faced a team that has the potential to make it difficult for them at the moment, if we talk about Ligue 1 there may not be a change with their position as the favourites to win the title, But for the Champions League, But for the Champions League, it seems that this season will be very difficult for them, especially after they are certain to face teams such as Arsenal, Bayern Munich, Manchester City and Atletico Madrid in league phase.

Even with Mbappe out of the squad, we can see PSG's consistent performances this season. This has been possible thanks to Luis Enrique's hard work. He has been able to stabilize the PSG team. Over the last few seasons we have seen PSG's overall performance depend on Mbappe. And the coach used to make PSG's match strategy around Mbappe. If Mbappe plays well, PSG's overall performance would be better, if Mbappe doesn't perform well, PSG will lose points. That's what we saw last season.

Luis Enrique is not keen on relying on any particular player this season. So he developed a stable match strategy. Tried to strengthen the mutual understanding between the players. PSG's squad currently lacks any big-name star players. Still, the team's overall performance is very strong. So it can be expected that we will see consistent performances from PSG in Ligue 1 and Champions League next season. Luis Enrique and PSG players are very hardworking and confident.

Losing 1 player (even if he's important) will not reduce the overall performance of the team, that's what we saw with PSG and Barcelona in the past when their MSN trio left the team. The strong tradition of winning Ligue 1 is held by PSG, it will be difficult to replace considering that the owner of PSG makes football one of the industries he's serious about, their next match is against Lille, Lille is currently in 2nd place in the standings, there's no doubt that PSG will win that match though playing away.

Making sure that one player doesn't really hurt them, you end up with getting more players and that is the benefit of it. I mean sure Mbappe is great but not like other players sucked, they were still star level players for this league all around and that is what they gained from this situation.

I believe that the best thing to do right now would be just PSG trying for UCL again because Ligue 1 will not make that much money to be fair since considering how PSG always dominates, there isn't a reason many people to tune in and watch it, so the best case for PSG right now would be the fact that we are going to see them do better and that will be a lot better result, it should be something that they aim at and if they can get UCL that would be a great deal for them. It is going to end up with a good result one way or another. UCL isn't easy, but it is not impossible neither and I am sure that if they keep trying at this level, this good, then eventually they may get it.

In ligue 1 of course we cannot doubt the capacity possessed by PSG to become champions, but in the champions league of course we cannot expect much from them at the moment, in the draw that was carried out yesterday PSG has joined a strong European team in the league phase, I think PSG journey is currently very difficult and it may even be difficult for them to be able to qualify for the next round if they have to face a team like Manchester City, Atlético Madrid, PSV Eindhoven, Bayern Munich, Arsenal, maybe only Salzburg, Girona and Stuttgart can be easy opponents for them.

PSG ownersexpressions after knowing their opponents in the UCL draw  

I think it is high time we understand that PSG and Mbappe are now two different entities, and talking about how one lacks another is nothing but pointless. Now that Mbappe is in Real Madrid, it's very probable that he doesn't even care about PSG.

PSG has played two games, won both, and now has a strong list of opponents to face in the UCL group stage. They did buy new players, sold some, and are now trying to restart the club at a good pace, Luis Enrique, he does know his shit. Just a matter of time, and the results will speak for itself.

But no, Mbappe has a career of his own now, and we should not discuss PSG and Mbappe in the same conversation anymore.

[len01]

Lyon vs Strasbourg

Lyon started like last season at the beginning of the season always starting with a very bad performance. Indeed, in terms of H2H, Lyon should be more favored than Strasbourg. But I will not only believe in the last 5 meetings of these two teams but also look at their previous performances which were only able to get 2 defeats that Lyon got.
Strasbourg is much better at the moment with the success of getting 3 points from Rennes and being able to get 1 point from the away match against Montpellier. This is the reason I bet on Strasbourg victory to try to get an advantage from this match. The temporary score Strasbourg managed to get 1 score and Lyon still couldn't score.
From ball possession, Lyon controlled the ball more often but had difficulty in making attacks. But on the other hand, Strasbourg had lower ball possession but had surprising attacks when Lyon defense started to lose focus.

[rahmad2nd]

Yeah honestly I wasn't expecting PSG to be this amazing after Mbappe left the team. But I was missing a point. Relying on a specific player is mostly a bad thing. It prevents a good teamwork at a high rate.    Since he left, the team have been destroying every single opponent they face. Of course there is still a big quality gap between them and the rest of the Ligue 1 teams. But the way they play is very promising.

Now when it comes to the Champions League... Their fixture is quite tough. However I still expect last 16 from PSG. Because they will probably play way better than Mbappe era. 

I have said in previous posts, even without Mbappe, PSG is still a strong team in the French League. In addition, Enrique can play a more solid teamwork without Mbappe always being the executor. Now, every player can score goals if they have the chance. Talking about PSG players, last season Barcola's performance was up and down. Well, interestingly in the two matches they have just played, their performance is quite good. He has scored three goals, even though he is not the player who is the finisher. In addition, Dembele's role is getting more mature and he is always a core player in Luis Enrique's squad. Well, what they need most is Joao Neves' consistency, if he performs well then it will really help his team to win the match. However, he is a young player whose game has not been tested for consistency and maturity. btw, PSG has only played two matches and the team they are playing against is not a strong enough team. It is natural that they are able to win big over their opponents, the next match will be more interesting if they are able to maintain their performance. Talking about PSG in the Champions League, we don't even know who their opponents are in the group stage. Because, the draw hasn't started yet. So, we can't speculate too far before they play their match in the UCL.

I saw PSG's overall performance in the two matches. The squad does not have a big star player like Mbappe. However, with the help of Luis Enrique, PSG have managed to build a stable squad capable of performing well. Scoring 10 goals in two matches was not an easy task. Even if the opposition is relatively weak, it is very difficult to score 10 goals in two matches.

It won't be easy for PSG to do well in the Champions League. But I guess PSG team will be able to win home matches against Girona and PSV. On the other hand, away matches against Salzburg and Stuttgart won't be difficult. But it is very difficult to win against Munich and Arsenal. However, Bayern Munich are not in good form this season. So it cannot be said that PSG win against Bayern Munich is unlikely.

Of course it's true, no player is shining brighter than Mbappe at PSG at the moment, but Luis Enrique's squad isn't too bad. PSG have quality players who they can hope to provide the best competition in Ligue 1 this season. They are favorites to retain the title, so I don't think this season they will have much trouble. Scoring 10 goals in 2 matches is certainly difficult, but PSG proved it, even without Mbappe.

I admit that PSG's journey to win the Champions League title has never been easy. This season they have some tough teams drawn against them, but on the odds I think PSG will get through to the last 16 even if they can't win all 8 games.

[hahay]

But I am still a little curious about PSG's strength when the team competes outside Ligue 1 because this season is the season where PSG did not have Mbappe as their mainstay player before.

Considering about PSG, which in the previous two matches at least can be said to only play against mediocre teams, so maybe it can be said that it is also natural for PSG to get very good results. But, for the next match that PSG will also play away against Lille, which is currently also Lille in second place in the Ligue 1 standings and also, Lille got clean sheets also in the previous two matches. Thus, although in the head to head record it is clear that PSG has good dominance as well, but at least the match between Lille vs PSG is a big match which will certainly be a difficult match for them.

But even so and if I consider about the odds available at the moment as well, the truth is that PSG is still quite favored to win. But for me,  maybe Lille has a chance to get points even if only with a draw because I believe, eventhough PSG is the favorite but that does not mean PSG will easily beat Lille. Because it is possible, Lille also has a big target or ambition to be able to beat PSG, this will be an interesting match of course, because in the previous two matches they got very good results.

PSG isn't that in a bad shape after Kylian Mbappé's exit from the club as their awesome performance can be seen just as the season begun, scoring 10 goals in just 2 games means they've got players that can score just like Kylian Mbappé and it even looks like the existence of Kylian Mbappé in PSG hid some talents of players that would have been visible if not for Mbappé's presence. With how PSG Started the season there's no doubt they can still retain the league title this season.

As for the Champions League it isn't still gonna be easy for PSG because looking at the format of the champions league and the teams they're to face it's quite difficult to say that PSG will have a head way in the champions league because with their current squad now I think they can't make much positive impact in the champions league as they can only succeed in the Ligue 1

[Leviathan.007]

Paris Saint-Germain may reach the finals of the Champions League this year, how do we know?

Real Madrid didn't lost anything yet and they are still in a better situation with Mbppe because thanks to Mbappe they have a better and a younger forward who can play there for years and make Real Madrid happy to have a player like him but he didn't have good performance recently in Real Madrid that's maybe because other strategies of Real Madrid and the playing style of Mbappe but still we can't forget even after Mbappe left PSG they didn't lose anything yet.

PSG at the beginning of this season was more focused even if you look at their game now actually I think it's much better because it doesn't just rely on one person as the center of attack and the proof that in 2 matches they got full points with 10 goals and only conceded 1 goal is certainly a very good thing shown by Enrique to date.

But on the other hand, we also cannot take this as a benchmark that they are more overall because after all PSG has only played 2 matches and that means Enrique cannot be complacent here because his task is still very heavy until the end of the season to prove that they can despite not having a striker of Mbappe's caliber this season.

[snipie]

Lyon 4 - 3 Strasbourg!
Lyon started the season with 2 defeats and they received 5 goals without scoring any. In the other hand, Strasbourg earned 4 points in two rounds with positive goals difference. Fast forward in today's match, Strasbourg was leading twice, yet they failed in front of the resistance of Lyon to comeback and win for the first time this season.
Tomorrow there is PSG - Lille away but PSG is way more favourite to win

Kylian Mbappe having been the top scorer in the French league in the last six seasons so I understand it when so many people thought that Paris Saint Germaine are gonna struggle without him in the team. However, I never doubted the strength of the Paris Saint Germaine team neither did I think they'll struggle to continue their dominance of the French league in absence of Kylian Mbappe. With or without Kylian Mbappe, Paris Saint Germaine posseses the strongest squad in the league so I expect them to continue their dominance in the league. That being said, I'm worried if they'll be able to continue their impressive start to the season when the UEFA Champions League competition returns next month
