French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

PSG are not getting kicked out easily, they are competent to show their self in any phase of the final, no doubt even with the absence of some key players their performance isn't running down. PSG are not backing down in the race for the Champions League yet i don't expect them to win it for the second consecutive time, it is going to be a hard performance making it to that level, but however they perform in Ligue 1, they still remain the most favorite to win the title, no team comes closer to their weak form, it is norm for PSG all is left are the remaining Champions League space for other sides to compete.

If all of PSG players are available again, it will be very difficult to stop them. I don't think any team in Ligue 1 can be a match for PSG, even though they can sometimes suffer surprise defeats. However, that doesn't change anything in the standings, PSG still sits at the top. In the Champions League, PSG strength will be greatly taken into account by other contestants, especially since they are the defending champions. Regardless of whether they can repeat last season success, PSG is clearly among the favorites among many.

If Luis Enrique is offered to bring back all the players who played for PSG, I think Luis Enrique will not agree to this offer because he knows that bringing back the previous players will cause the performance to be chaotic again and the good relationship that currently exists between each player in the dressing room will not be there if the previous players return. PSG may not be nervous about the competition in their local league because they know that if they can play their normal game in the local league, they will still be champions by a large margin. Last season, PSG's full attention was on the Champions League, this season, PSG may be paying full attention to the Champions League. We have seen that PSG has already defeated big teams like Barcelona in this season of the Champions League, which means that they are indicating a good performance in the Champions League again and they are fully prepared.

Hopes are on Marseille because this team continues to show signs of improvement, but they need strong financial support if they want to compete with PSG. Marseille's level of play is slightly better, but they lack star players who can break PSG's dominance, making it still quite difficult for this team to compete for the title. Beating PSG in Week 5 doesn't mean anything, as PSG still sits in first place. The league's lack of competitiveness is due to the limited financial resources available to compete, as other teams lack the financial ability to recruit players as done by PSG.

There's no need to place too much hope on Marseille this season, as Ligue 1 will still be dominated by PSG, a team that will be a title contender again this season. The reasons are clear, and you've already explained them, so we shouldn't expect too much from a team like Marseille unless a miracle occurs to break PSG's dominance this season. But if some people want to hope for another team in Ligue 1 to bring down PSG, then what should be hoped is for their financial improvement so that next season, teams other than PSG can immediately recruit reliable players to be able to compete with PSG as we often see in other leagues.

If all of PSG players are available again, it will be very difficult to stop them. I don't think any team in Ligue 1 can be a match for PSG, even though they can sometimes suffer surprise defeats.

In the Champions League, PSG strength will be greatly taken into account by other contestants, especially since they are the defending champions. Regardless of whether they can repeat last season success, PSG is clearly among the favorites among many.

To date, I haven't found another team capable of matching PSG strength or breaking their dominance in Ligue 1. Shocking defeats are part of a team's journey during a season, after all, very few teams are able to finish the league without defeat. Unexpected situations will always befall any team, including PSG, such as injuries to several key players and fatigue due to a busy schedule that can affect the team's performance.

Holding the status of defending champions is certainly a burden for PSG, they certainly want to repeat the success achieved last season, however, the team surprises every season is always different. It takes hard work and consistently maintaining their performance so that they can once again be successful on the European stage.

I'm really curious to hear what you all think about this match.

No one doubts PSG, obviously. But Strasbourg, even though they’re seen as a weaker side, have started the season really well, and that makes me think this won’t be an easy game for PSG. I still expect PSG to win in the end, but I also think Strasbourg will put up a fight and won’t just roll over. They’ll definitely try to cause an upset.

What do you think? Do you agree?

I am yet to see the kind of fight strasbourg  will put up that will be enough to stop PSG in any form or way, PSG is way too far ahead of them with team quality, strength and even form and this happens to be one season where PSG is in their top form such that they cannot be contended by a team at this calibre but I believe defence may be what strasbourg will want to fall back at because that may be their only fortress, so let's just hope PSG wins with few goals because I expect something really epic.

The most important players of PSG squad Dembele and Doue  are injured. Even then we can see a good performance from psg . PSG's performance was stable even against big teams like barcelona and they won. PSG is also in possession of the top spot of Ligue 1 table. PSG will make utmost efforts to win the champions league title this season too. Even if it is difficult to win the Champions league title for two consecutive  seasons, but Luis Enrique will try his best. On the other hand , securing the Ligue 1 title will not be a difficult task for PSG.

It’s funny and crazy how Paris St-Germain is now in every conversation about winning the title, before now they used to be looked like people look at Arsenal in the EPL, they were never considered as UCL winners or contenders at all but now they’re the talk of the competition. It’s IMPRESSIVE; Hardwork and resilience pays.
It’s not a new thing that they’re French Ligue 1 giants, and with the quality and squad depth they have the other teams in the league can only try but they’ll dethrone them right now. Maybe we might see a one season wonder from any of the trying teams but we all know the league right now belongs to PSG just like the Bundesliga belongs to Bayern Munich that’s why they call this leagues farmers league.

Paris Saint-Germain currently leads the table with five wins in seven matches. Frankly, I expected seven wins from them. Their defeat in Marseille was particularly surprising. However, sometimes such results are natural. Players have their good days and their bad days. The good thing is that these results make the French league more exciting. Otherwise, following the French league would be pointless, because it wouldn't be fun to watch a league where Paris Saint-Germain wins the championship.

PSG is still on the right track in Ligue 1. Despite one defeat in the domestic league, they still lead the standings. Therefore, given PSG performance, I wouldn't be surprised if they could return to a winning streak in their upcoming matches. However, they must be wary of Marseille resurgence, as they have performed quite well under Roberto De Zerbi guidance this season, even beating PSG.

However, statistically, no team could trouble PSG in the title race last season, So it's possible that PSG could easily secure the title this season. However, we still expect other teams to provide strong competition until the end of the season. So, if Marseille wants to compete for the title this season, they must really perform well in their upcoming matches.

I don’t know if you watch Strassborg but if you do you will know that PSG will have difficulties in beating them, especially when most of their key players are injured. PSG suffered only one defeat in the league last season and it was in the hand of Strassborg. Honestly mate they are a very good side and very difficult to play against, one thing they do more than every other team except PSG is taking their chances, they don’t even need to create more to score goals.

PSG can win but it going to be a tough and interesting game, this is one game I’m looking forward to watch after the international break. I bet we will come back here and talk about the match after it played.

Right... PSG is playing  well. They will try their best to do well in the champions league. But even then, the chances of psg  winning the champions league again are slim. I guess we will probably see PSG in the champions league final this season. PSG's squad is strong, and the most important thing is that  psg  is not dependent on the performance of any particular player. So even though several players in the squad are out of the squad due to injuries , their performance is still very stable.

There is a PSG - Strasbourg game in 5 days. Strasbourg have made quite a striking start right?    They are only 1 point away from the leader. Doing well in the Ligue 1 and Conference League both.

On the other hand, the injured players are also recovering one by one at PSG as far as I know. But Dembele is still injured. However I still don't think PSG will lose points. I expect a close score though. 1.30 for PSG and 1.81 for BTTS. I assume I will prefer the latter.  

[Stormisover]

Let's say that Paris Saint Germain is now dominating both here and in Europe, no team they have faced has the necessary requirements to beat them, in fact i still can't explain how they managed to lose against Chelsea, i don't understand it as an ignorant person like me.

The great thing they have gained this season is that last year they won UCL, so they know that if they do everything right, like Enrique asks them, then they are going to win. That confidence is not something you can buy with money, they tried that before but the whole team lacked the confidence in Europe.

It's easy to win Ligue 1 for them, it is not really a task even, they just go out and play and win, it's been like that for a decade now so it is not going to change suddenly. What changed was UEFA, because in champions league they are doing much better thanks to that confidence. Even in group stages of last season they were bad, and they were afraid of not even being in top 24, they got in at the very last minute, but they managed to get a title out of it.

Bro everyone one is as shocked as you are like I really don't believe that game could end that way, like Paris Saint Germain was actually in mad form last season and even till this season but how Chelsea managed to beat them with such margin is still something I can't figure out, though I have known Chelsea to be a mysterious winners but I didn't see this particular winning coming, but I think they fight is still on they will still meet in the UEFA Champions League then we will know if truly Chelsea is worth that winning or they were just fortunate to have won that game we will know that this season.

PSG will be able to secure the Ligue 1 trophy again this season for sure. There's no need to consider any other team as a strong opponent for PSG, because I think those other teams are just punching bags for PSG considering their performance last season. Even though their performance has declined somewhat and they lost their best goalkeeper, Donnarumma, that doesn't mean their dominance will immediately disappear. PSG still has incredible squad depth and individual quality, and that's what makes them very competitive, both domestically and in the Champions League.

No, I disagree if you think Strasbourg could try to pull off a surprise.
Now think again which Ligue 1 club is capable of beating Paris Saint-Germain at home???
To date, no club has prevented PSG from winning at home, and for PSG, playing at home is like a reputation they must uphold, and no club will try to hold or beat Paris Saint-Germain.

So far they have really performed so well already and even out performed some teams in some cases but is it enough to say they are sure to win the Ligue 1 title this season? because we still have so many weeks ahead in which a lot can happen and things could change their course of movements before we even realise it enough. I honestly want another team winning it this season, let us see if there will be some senses of competition on a new dimension in the Ligue 1 this season.

Truly, so far, PSG has done its best in the Champions League. They've won twice, with the last major victory being against Barcelona, ​​without Usmane Dembélé, Désiré Doué, and several of their top players. This proves that PSG can no longer be underestimated.

Even Démbélé is recovering very well from his injury and will be able to start training again this week and will be available for the match against Strasbourg. The same is true for Désiré Doué.

That's more or less likely for PSG because, considering the quality of the players in other Ligue 1 teams besides PSG, it's certainly very difficult for any other team to beat PSG, especially if it were to happen at PSG's home ground. This will obviously be hard for many to believe, because PSG will still play well in front of their own fans and won't let their fans down after losing at home to a lesser Ligue 1 team like Strasbourg. Other teams will have to rely on a much greater degree of luck if they want to beat PSG at any given moment.

I don't think any other team can stop PSG's dominance in Ligue 1. as other teams haven't capitalized on the situation moment PSG is losing its best form. PSG is still very strong this season, and if Dembele and Kvaratskhelia return to the team, I think PSG will be strong again with a winning streak.

Even if PSG loses control in the next few games, they will still perform well in the final matches, as they have shown in previous seasons. Therefore, if another team can stop PSG from winning the Ligue 1 trophy, it would certainly be an extraordinary surprise.

PSG have been good since they won the UCL and up till now they have been up to speed only that they didn't do well in some of their games like Barcelona. Well, the games they played with some of the guys who always make things happen went their way, which means they can do without the injured players. But my concern is Démbélé who have been injured and him being the current Ballon d'Or winner is something to worry about because he hasn't shown some of what he did last season ever since he won the award. I hope this injury won't spoil things for the France striker because this was the same way we start seeing Rodri going and coming out of injury, it shouldn't happen to Démbélé if not that will be the end. I think this is the first time he has stayed for long due to injury, the last time I saw him last this long was back then at Barcelona, just hope he recovers quickly with his other teammates.

Other teams will have to rely on a much greater degree of luck if they want to beat PSG at any given moment.

PSG's dominance is still quite strong because the clubs there probably don't have many chances to beat them. Marseille have taken a good approach after beating PSG, but can other teams do the same? The Ligue 1 title race is all about PSG, which is why Ligue 1 is considered less competitive. What's interesting is that the French league representatives play in the Champions League because after winning the title, they are now expected to show even better results and must achieve good results for this musical competition.

Yes I agree! PSG are the top team in the league as things stand but Strasbourg have also been impressive so far this season and holding the third position spot on the table. I also believe they will put up a good fight against PSG which could go either ways. However PSG are still favourites to win this game but we will see what Strasbourg can do.

I, too, want another team to win the French league title. It's not just me, it's not just you, it's almost everyone in the world who wants it, because competition always makes the league more attractive. However, as far as I can see, there's still no team in France that's stronger than Paris Saint-Germain. Even if Marseille beat them, Paris Saint-Germain is still clearly superior.
