French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[Moreno233]

The result of the match between OGC Nice and AS Saint-Etienne is such a huge surprise to me and it is really embarrassing to As Saint-Etienne. Even when we know that Nice is the favorite to win them as they are better and also enjoying home advantage, there is no justification for conceding eight goals without scoring any and this can be seen as a terrible crime. Prior to this match, Saint-Etienne had conceded seven goals from four matches which is an average of two goals per match so by prediction, a three goals to nil defeat would have been understandable in a case of no red card. But these number of goals makes them appear extremely porous.

Getting a draw is a fair result for both teams even though Lens is favored in this match but Lyon is not a club that can be easily defeated, it is also a fairly respected club in League 1 even though at the beginning of the season Lyon did not perform well and experienced 2 defeats but in its last 2 matches Lyon was able to win 4 points, Lyon's performance is not yet completely stable and it seems difficult to win points in every match I just hope this club does not experience difficult times like last season.

For the next match I don't expect much from Lyon, maybe this will be a tough challenge for him to maintain at least 1 point at home, coincidentally the club he is facing is a club that has performed impressively this season so getting 1 point is enough.

I would be disappointed is Marseille should settle for a draw in this game, they are supposed to get a win even if they are playing from home, in the transfer window this season, Marseille was more active than Lyon was, and they were able to get even more better player so their depth is in much more better form and of a better strength than that of lyon, invariably I'm saying they are the favorite and the better side, greenwood has been doing a whole lot for them recently and I'm hoping to see his magic again in this games so Marseille be able to maintain their position at the second position on the table already. Lyon is at the 13th position on the table and have lost two games so far, again I believe they lack what it takes ro really win this game a and if they get a draw, it's a win for them though.

[TelolettOm]

Yes, they did the win, they won the UCL match against Girona with only score 1 - 0.

The main mistake I see in PSG is just lack of focus and too hasty. We can see again how PSG always fails in front of Girona goal while PSG had a lot of opportunities but did not dare to take the risk to try to get closer to the goal.

Yes, how could it not be, PSG had so many chances, but really failed to score a goal. This is a failure, even though they won, but PSG players need a lot of evaluation from Enrique, especially their attacking line. exactly, they are too ambitious but not really focused to optimize the big chances coming.

The result of the match between OGC Nice and AS Saint-Etienne is such a huge surprise to me and it is really embarrassing to As Saint-Etienne.

Starting with OG, then Nice humiliated AS Saint-Étienne very badly, and they really appreciated their opponent's failure. Just imagine, 8 - 0 without a single goal from the opponent. AS Saint-Étienne's ball just went around between the players, but was very poor when it was going to advance towards the attacking lines, especially in finishing, very bad. not to mention their defense which was very bad too., complete.

This will be an exciting match at the UCL event. PSG will play with a new strategy at the start of the competition. The match between PSG and Girona is eagerly awaited by PSG fans with satisfactory results, they can get full points from Girona, while Girona players have made mistakes, I think they will play well against the big teams in the French league. PSG is very perfect with complete players. makes it easier to control the match until the second half considering their level is very good.

This match was very difficult for me to watch, on one side I had the TV showing the City and Inter game which was really good and ended in a draw, I thought it was great how Pipo Inzaghi's team did it, but on the other hand I thought PSG's victory was agonising, but in the end it's a good result and things turned out really well for them, the important thing is to win and a few points that PSG have there with their debut which I thought they suffered a lot but they had a Harmonious stroke of luck.

But it is not easy to win when the club plays away, Lyon's recent performance has been bad and Marseille is better than Lyon, but still every club wants good results when they play at home, whether it's getting 3 points or getting a draw, but Marseille can beat Lyon in the second meeting this season when Marseille played at their home base.
For today's match, I bet on favorite clubs with odds @3.29, hopefully it will be according to my prediction, but in the Lens vs Rennes match, I am a little hesitant to choose one of them, so I prefer to bet on the total Asia.

Nice crushed their guests with a very convincing score of 8 goals without reply. AS Saint-Étienne As the away team had to swallow a very bitter pill because they had to taste defeat with a very bad score. They actually brought the capital of victory before this match took place, I thought it would be a good capital for them, but it turned out that it had no effect at all.
Nice didn't need much time to create their first goal and in 10 minutes they were able to create 2 goals. Even before the first half ended they were able to create 6 goals which made them more comfortable to play in the second half. They were not satisfied with the 6 goals they created in the first half, in the second half they were able to add 2 more goals so that the match ended with a score of 8-0.

Saint Etienne could not avoid the crushing defeat they received in this match, yes they had to endure the shame after 8 goals were scored into their goal without any significant resistance. Nice was very effective in attacking, it was reinforced by the fragile defense built by Saint Etienne.
After their own goal in the 4th minute I thought they would be able to rise and fight back, but in reality they had to concede again 3 minutes later. This destroyed their mentality so that Nice could very comfortably control the situation.
From the beginning I had indeed predicted that Nice could win, but my expectations were not like in this match. Initially I thought maybe they would win by a difference of 2 or 3 goals only.

I didn't watch the Nice vs St-Étienne game last night but very surprised to see the heavy defeat the visiting team suffered in the hands of Nice when I check the score line.  This is the kind of defeat that leaves some bad effects of the mentality of the players  so it'll take a good performance and result from St-Étienne players for them to regain their confidence again after such a heavy loss. It's too early to be fighting for relegation but after that defeat last night, the fight to survive being relegated have now become a reality for St-Étienne but I hope they survive at the end of the season

Nice's overall performance has been erratic this season. Nice won only one of the first 4 matches. We already predicted that Nice will win against Saint Etienne. Because the Etienne team is a relatively weak team. But Nice will win by a big margin of 8-0 which no one can predict. Nice players performed well in this match.

Etienne conceded a goal just 4 minutes into the match due to a mistake by Etienne's defender Batubinsika. And I think this own goal made Etienne's players lose confidence. They conceded 6 goals in the first half. Etienne's defenders seemed completely aimless to me in this match.

Before the match started, I thought we would see an exciting match happen in that match, Nice who has the status of a home team of course has a high motivation to rise after losing to Marseille in the previous match, as well as Saint Etienne who came with great ambition and mentality after defeating the strong Lille team in the previous match, but what I just wanted to see did not come true where the match became a massacre for Saint Etienne, when against Lille, the performance and defense from the saint etienne players were quite solid even under the pressure of the Lille attackers, but what we saw in the match against Nice was a very contrasting where their defenders performed very poorly and it was difficult to stop the attack built by Nice, seeing the opportunities created by Nice in the match actually Saint Etienne was very lucky to lose with a score of 8-0, Because if only the Nice attackers were able to make good use of every opportunity available to score a goal, then it is likely that they would lose by a chord of more than 10 goal over Nice .

[len01]

3 profitable matches today because the odds are very big besides the PSG match. But I already have a bet slip on the PSG match and waiting for the analysis results of the other matches.

My temporary predictions:

Reims vs PSG (PSG win with a score over 2.5)
Rennes vs Lens (Lens win or BTTS)
Lille vs Strasbourg (Lille win)

[Lidger]

With several players who can score goals for PSG, then at least it is proof that PSG plays as a team and does not rely on just one player. Of course, this is something very good for  them to be able to maintain good performance and results in every match. Because ofcourse,  when they can play as a team and even though the coach rotates players, then of course the team will still play and make good results in every match. But even so,  PSG should not be too complacent about this winning streak,  because of course PSG still has to stay focused, especially in the Champion League to get  better results than previous seasons.

Slowly Enrique wants to remove the scheme, especially with Mbappe's departure, actually PSG's journey to become a club with player cohesiveness not only relying on one player is still very good in terms of progress for now.

PSG even in terms of the game looks quite good because it does not have 1 player who is used as a benchmark if you look at the performance of this season and last season it is clear that now PSG does not only depend on one player who is considered to be a player who can bring victory but for now all players try to win collectively not individually.
I think this is a very good thing for PSG and although there will definitely be a lot of obstacles for this season but I think as long as the progress continues to improve then PSG can be at an even better level for future seasons if Enrique's current scheme continues to end with positive results.

Without star players like Mbappe, Luis Enrique certainly tried to experiment with new schemes, forming a collective and balanced team in every line. However, the difficulty in breaking the deadlock is still felt, as in the match against Girona yesterday. I think that is very natural, Dembele, Asensio, Barcola and other attackers will develop gradually to take on the role left by Mbappe.
We realize that the victory obtained by PSG was more about luck, but overall they played well. The ups and downs of performance will certainly come to every team, including PSG, especially when they face the favorite team in the Champions League. Meanwhile, in Ligue 1, PSG leads the standings very comfortably, they look very productive with 16 goals scored.

Last season and this season key players from PSG have only left but in contrast PSG have not been in too much of a rush to recruit players for their club. To catch up, PSG is a starless team right now but still PSG is performing well in their local league. Luis Enrique may not be getting a good response from the management about buying players that is why he is refraining from buying players. If PSG has high expectations for the Champions League then PSG must recruit quality players to their club. If there isn't, that's a different matter. 

Mbappe is a world class star who also played for PSG last season so I would say definitely a worthy replacement for Mbappe is needed in PSG.

Saint Etienne is a promoted team this season to Ligue 1 so it is very natural for them to lose that much to Nice who are generally quite experienced in Ligue 1. I also saw that Saint Etienne's defenders were very bad at holding the ball and also in giving passes to their teammates so they conceded more goals without reply from Nice who surprisingly started to improve in the match. And thanks to this victory, Nice is now starting to be in a better position so I hope Nice can continue to be consistent like that in every match they face this season in order to be able to provide competition to some of their toughest rivals.

Rennes vs Lens

Rennes (confirmed lineup): Steve Mandanda, Hans Hateboer, Christopher Wooh, Alidu Seidu, Lorenz Assignon, Adrien Truffert, Baptiste Santamaria, Azor Matusiwa, Albert Groenbaek, Arnaud Kalimuendo-Muinga, Ludovic Blas.

Lens (confirmed lineup): Brice Samba, Jonathan Gradit, Abdukodir Khusanov, Facundo Medina, Przemyslaw Frankowski, Jhoanner Chavez, Adrien Thomasson, Andy Diouf, Anass Zaroury, Remy Lascary, Florian Sotoca.

Rennes and Lens have started their match and this two teams still have undone deal with each other which is, in their last two meetings they end the both matches with draw which means they haven't settled with each other, and now again they are together, let see who win at the end.

Rennes vs Lens

Rennes (confirmed lineup): Steve Mandanda, Hans Hateboer, Christopher Wooh, Alidu Seidu, Lorenz Assignon, Adrien Truffert, Baptiste Santamaria, Azor Matusiwa, Albert Groenbaek, Arnaud Kalimuendo-Muinga, Ludovic Blas.

Rennes and Lens have started their match and this two teams still have undone deal with each other which is, in their last two meetings they end the both matches with draw which means they haven't settled with each other, and now again they are together, let see who win at the end.

The first half match between Rennes and Lens has ended and while Rennes is 1-0 ahead of Lens through a penalty created by Muinga in the 24th minute after lens player make a foul in the penalty box, if we look at the squad that was played today both teams actually fielded their best squad and what is very interesting is that the two coaches used the same formation of 3-4-3 in the match, the 3-4-3 formation prioritizes a solid midfield and usually the team that plays with 3-4-3 formation is more inclined to have a balance between their defense and attack, although Rennes is currently superior but we can see that so far both teams have balanced ball possession, but Rennes who have the status of the home team are actually more able to create chances even though many of these opportunities are wasted due to poor finishing, although Rennes is currently superior, I am quite confident that in the second half Lens will be able to play better to create an equalizer goal.

Indeed, previously we would consider PSG to win easily because at least, it was also based on the good results that PSG had in Ligue 1. But in fact,  PSG could not win easily against Girona yesterday, because Girona also managed to play well and disciplined so that PSG found it difficult to score goals. At least, I also expected a big win for PSG considering that other top teams were able to win at least with a score of 3-0, but PSG still had difficulty winning in the Champions League even though they only played against Girona.

Thus, I think PSG still needs time to really have good results in the Champions League too, ofcourse so that the results that PSG got in the Champions League are the same as those in Ligue 1. But yes,because PSG also did not make any player purchases in the last transfer market, then maybe that also had a less than good impact on rotating PSG players. Thus,  it seems that if the transfer window opens again in January later, it might  be better for PSG to buy some players, at least to make the player rotation work well.

The match between Reims and PSG just started, and it's about 30 minutes into the first half, which is coming to an end. To my surprise, Reims scored a goal in the 9 minute, but PSG has not been able to equalize, despite being in control of the pitch. In fact, PSG has not been able to create good chances. They just have one shot on target, which is not what I expected from PSG at this point. From my observations, Reims seems to be playing defensively. Even with that, I have some confidence that PSG will soon find a way to equalize. If it's not possible in the first half, I expect them to do so in the second half. But let's see what happens before the end of the first half may be psg will equalize the goals  and find the winning goal, ls in second half.

[Leviathan.007]

Reims have been performing well in recent weeks but can struggle defensively against strong opponents. Especially against good opponents like Rennes and Marseille, they scored two goals, which shows how effective they can be on offense. PSG, on the other hand, are in great form and their attacking line in particular has been very effective. The victory over Girona reinforced the positive mood in the team and showed how good the team's defensive discipline is.

PSG have also threatened strong opponents such as Montpellier and Lille with clear victories against them. Even if Reims show resistance at home, I don't think they will resist much against PSG's quality squad and attacking power. Therefore, I think PSG will win this match and we will see at least two goals in the match.

I can see it that Reims has excellent start this season because so far they only lost once from 4 matches and Reims even still unbeated in the last 3 matches and they can successfully to stole 1 point from Marseille few weeks ago but unfortunately Reims next opponent is PSG and just like we all know PSG performance is very fantastic compared to last season and recently PSG has been able to gets 5 winning streak and the latest is PSG can win from Laaliga team Girona at Champion league

I have to says with their current condition there is no chances for Reims to beat PSG especially if we see based on meeting statistics i can see PSG is too strong from Reims even since 2019 Reims was unable to win from PSG in all competitions and for betting option recently i have checked the odds for PSG win and the bookies give low odds @1.46 and those who want to earn easy money i think can bets on this option because certainly PSG will be able to beat Reims again

Reims is not a team to stand against a team like PSG even if we think Reims is the good form still they are not strong like PSG at all. I can also see the odds are not bad for betting on PSG and they so far in the Fnrehc League PSG won all the games they had and they got 12 points in 4 games, I think Reims can't be hard for them and it is worth to bet on PSG beating Reims for this match however this will only give 1.47 but this is safe enough for me to go.
However, there is still a possibility for Reims to take some points in this match but the best result they can get is a draw.
 

[Minor Miner]

The PSG vs Reims match turned out to be very competitive. The PSG team is at the top of the table having won their first four matches. On the other hand, despite the defeat in the first match, we have seen very good performances from Reims players in every subsequent match. Reims have won their last two matches against Nantes and Rennes. In today's match as well, Reims players are playing to win the home match against PSG.

Reims lead 1-0 at the end of the first half. Nakamura's goal gave Reims the lead in just the ninth minute of the match. PSG's players had 76% of the ball possession and despite several strong attacks, PSG still couldn't equalize the match. Luis Enrique did not include Dembele in his squad for today's match. Meanwhile, three key players in PSG's squad, Donnarumma, Asensio and Ramos, missed the match due to injuries.

[Phoenix Anka]

Monaco isn't in the first place in Ligue 1 for so many years. They failed several times to advance and win in European competitions. They failed to do win against Lens and just got a draw there.
Meanwhile, Monaco is playing with Lion mode activated when it comes to Barcelona we are talking about 3 goals to 0 in Joan Gamper Trophy then here they did it again but with 2 goals to 1.
Poor Barcelona, they are doing great in their league, La Liga, but when it comes to some serious competitions like UEFA Champions League, Barcelona is almost absent..

That's very reasonable in my opinion, because Barcelona lost their midfielder after getting a red card and Monaco took advantage of the opportunity because Barcelona did not have a sharp attack anymore, if only Eric Garcia was not red carded and or Dani Olmo was there I'm sure that Barcelona would get a much better victory, but the luck was obtained by Monaco where Dani Olmo was injured, a good step for the French league 1 team in the first match in the champions league, as well as PSG who managed to beat Girona 1-0.

It's an unlucky night for Barcelona. Monaco is happy that they beat them, but it wouldn't have been possible if Barcelona hadn't received a red card. Monaco is a strong team, but the three points they got from Barcelona are like three extra points. Because Barcelona will probably beat their opponents in the other matches. The three points Monaco gets in this match will probably take them to the next round.
