I never bothered about PSG losing their position cause I believed they'll still reclaim their spot " a friend of mine do say it's their right and the Ligue 1 tittle was made for them" the statement is right to an extent given the number of times they've won it without much struggle or competition against a very tough rival in the league.

 Still yet to see the team that would boldly challenge the dominance of PSG and I don't feel any team is that strong enough yet to overthrown them, Marseille looked tough but after losing to Lens, my confidence in them has reduced, maybe if they can get more players that are skillful, composed and experienced as Greenwood then they'll be stronger.

Marseille's defeat surprised me as well. Their ineffective defeat against Paris Saint-Germain and subsequent ineffective defeat against Lens revealed their inconsistency. If they want to maintain their title contention, they shouldn't drop points in such matches. If you drop three points against Lens, you have a serious problem in your pursuit of the title. Of course, Lens is doing very well this year, but everyone was expecting a title race between Marseille and Paris Saint-Germain.

Lens is not a small opponent considering the way that, they have been playing this season.besides lens was playing at home so that also gave them the extra advantage against Marseille. Marseille played very well the problem was in the finishing because Marseille missed some very important opportunities that came their way in the cause of the game.


Marseille should use this lose as a lesson to make sure that they come back a much better improved team . Which can be competitive in the laliga because Marseille is one of the biggest clubs in the France ligue 1.

PSG is a club that is never going to be able to perform well in bigger competitions like the Champions League because they do not have that level of competition in domestic matches. But now it seems like things have taken a turn in the opposite direction. Suddenly they are really good in the Champions League competition and so far in this season they have been facing some good competition in the domestic matches.

At least the Ligue 1 is not as one-sided as it is in general yet in this season. Maybe that’s because it is relatively early and PSG will start performing more consistently later in the season. But under Luis Enrique things seems to be changing for PSG, and also for the better. Like even though they are at the top of the table right now in Ligue 1, they are facing some competition which is good. But at the same time that does not necessarily mean that the competition has gotten better.

PSG biggest dream was winning the UEFA, they have to worked hard for years to achieve it but they wouldn't be stopping to a single victory but will wants to create a records of achievements for themselves by winning it back to back. To be sincere,there are only few clubs in the UEFA champions League that can challenge PSG for that title,PSG have device a tactics of defeating bigger opponents in competitive race like in the UEFA. I am happy that PSG won convincingly against Brest 3-0 in their Home stadium,a victory that have skyrocket them back to their 1st position in the Lique 1 shortly after lens Defeated Marseille 2:1. However,PSG haven't been consistent, perhaps have been giving less attention in the Lique 1 but as the Lique progresses,PSG will balance its consistent the same way it is doing in the UEFA champions League.

In as much as this fixture is really important to PSG, let us not forget the place of the possibility of anything happening, they have a very good chance to win this game and looking at the goal history of PSG in recent times, if they are winning this game, I am expecting a minium of two goals from them except they are not going to win this game then I would say they may draw. PSG need to be at the top of the table seated with very good points and also goals, so a one goal victory is not one I think they are wishing to get in this game.

What you'd expect has happened, and even more than the number of goals you'd expect from PSG. Because the home team is truly lacking in defense, PSG managed to muster eight shots on goal, three of which were on target. And thanks to this win, PSG are now back at the top of the table, although I only consider this a very common occurrence, as no one in Ligue 1 has been able to prevent PSG from remaining in first place every season. So this is really no surprise, and even the match against Brest was truly boring.

I am glad PSG is back on the top of the table, so now they can face the champions league squarely, even though they have already, but they will now without much concern on the Ligue 1 knowing they are already topping the table, it is with a small closed margin actually but with the strength and dominance PSG has got in the league, they can possibly maintain a good position that will keep them maintaining the position well enough for the longest of time enough till when they will eventually win the title.

Olympique Lyon and Strasbourg will take to the field in the ninth round of the new season to offer moments full of joy and excitement but we cannot consider the exact trajectory of this team as they are currently separated by 1 point in this ongoing season. It is still uncertain which player of the Olympic Leo team will be the main driving force for the goals in this match, actually we saw that this team was a bit mentally broken after the 3-2 defeat against OGC Nice and they were not able to manage everything well in that match.
On the surface, it seems that the Strasbourg playing style has improved a few notches more than the OGC Nice team, so my mind says that, the Lyon team needs to learn a lot in this match and they will have to adapt to the exciting situation, maybe this way they can put the visiting team under pressure.

Marseille not only lost three points but also lost the lead. Furthermore, Lens beat them and climbed above them in the standings. Now Paris Saint-Germain and Lens are second. Marseille, who were leading before this match, have fallen to third. It's truly exhilarating how quickly things change in France. I love how every team wants to defend their title chances against Paris Saint-Germain. However, we know that, of course, Paris Saint-Germain will win the league at the end of the season. That excitement alone gives us joy.

It was expected that Marseille simply couldn't maintain their position. Despite their promising start to the season, their performance often dipped, costing them the chance to maintain their position.

On the other hand, PSG's performance has been quite consistent, allowing them to reach the top of the table without facing significant resistance from their opponents.

If PSG can maintain this level of performance until the end of the season, they can certainly win Ligue 1 again.

Without having to wait long, PSG have reclaimed the top spot in the standings from Marseille. As many predicted, Marseille were unable to hold on to first place for long, they have now dropped two places after losing to Lens. With all their key players available, Luis Enrique will find it easier to face every challenge in both Ligue 1 and the Champions League ahead. Personally, I assume PSG will once again succeed in retaining the Ligue 1 trophy this season, and they also have a strong chance of defending their Champions League title. It would take a great deal of luck to break PSG’s dominance in Ligue 1, and it seems that no contender this season is capable of doing so.

When a few rounds ago PSG had some of their best players injured, it was the only good opportunity that the other Ligue 1 teams had to distance themselves from PSG in the table, but they didn't take advantage of the chance and now PSG has recovered and it will be difficult for the other teams to pass PSG in the table, unfortunately these other Ligue 1 teams have been very inconsistent, I don't know what the hell is wrong with them, I had already said this when PSG lost, that it wasn't something to worry about because these other teams would lose a lot, so even if PSG was doing badly, they can still be champions, because the other teams are a disaster

But now it seems like things have taken a turn in the opposite direction. Suddenly they are really good in the Champions League competition and so far in this season they have been facing some good competition in the domestic matches.

What I think is that PSG has put all their attention on the champions league and they don't care that much about how they're performing in the domestic legues because they know they still have a high chances of winning it regardless of how they perform. They don't use to do well in the champions league because they focused their attention too much on the league games but now that their attention has been shifted to the champions league, it'll make them to be prepared in all the leagues and have more chances of showing their dominance in the big games. This season so far, psg has won 6 games out of 9 that has been played and still top of the table therefore they still have a high chance of winning the league again.

Luis Enrique probably wouldn't have made such a statement if someone had asked him where his focus was this season.
Every team's priority is to win as many titles as possible - so I don't think a manager would focus too much on one competition when his team could still win all of them. The Champions League is certainly prestigious for all European teams - but domestic league titles are a priority for every manager.

So far PSG has collected 20 points from 9 matches ^{[6 wins, 2 draws, 1 loss].} They also lead the Champions League standings with 9 points from 3 wins. PSG will be looking to maintain their strong performance in every competition, so I don't think they'll be inclined to focus on one competition when they can prioritize everything else.

Finally, the results of the match in the French Ligue this time yielded very good results for PSG. PSG has now managed to climb back to the top of Ligue 1 standing after defeating Brest with a score of 0-3. And the good thing is that at that time, Marseille, as their rival, had to lose to Lens with a score of 2-1. So now, in Ligue 1, Marseille dropped to third place, while Lens feels like second place.

It's no surprise that Ligue 1 positions can change so quickly, and PSG always finds a way to maintain their position even though Marseille initially took the lead. This is why the league is not very competitive, as PSG's rivals are always unable to maintain consistency, ultimately leading to defeats and giving PSG a huge advantage. Marseille's defeat shouldn't have happened if they had been able to forgive several scoring opportunities, and ultimately, Lille managed to capitalize on the situation to get all three points in this match.

Fortunately, Marseille lost against Lens, giving PSG a chance to avoid losing their first-place finish in Ligue 1. PSG played with a full squad, and even Dembele returned to action, although he and Desire Doue were on the bench. They only entered the field in the 70th minute. Doue replaced Kvaratskhelia, and Dembele replaced Lee-Kang In in the 67th minute.

Although not fully fit after their injuries, we saw both players contribute significantly to this match. I believe some of PSG's less than impressive results were due to the injuries to several key players. Now, PSG has returned to the top of the table, previously held by Marseille, and it will be much harder for other teams in Ligue 1 to beat them now that several injured players have returned. Dembele has been crucial in the last two seasons, and if he doesn't play, the attack might look a little different, even if there are other players who can fill in.

The contrasting results achieved by Marseille and PSG have also changed their positions in the standings. PSG returned to winning ways after only being able to draw in their previous two matches, while the defeat to Lens ended Marseille five game winning streak. This season's competition looks very competitive compared to the previous few seasons, PSG is only 3 points ahead of Monaco who is in 6th place. Losing 7 points from two draws and one defeat has put PSG under a bit of pressure in maintaining their position, player injuries have slightly disrupted their direction of play, now that Dembele is back, the balance in the front line will return to its original form, the victory over Brest is the beginning of a series of PSG wins in the next match.

PSG suffered early injury attack and it has cost them points. But I still believe that it is better than suffering from injury when the season is at its heat because they still have a chance to make up for what they have lost. I am happy for them following Dembele's return from injury to keep the team flying. The front line will gradually take shape now and would hand them over the chances of maintaining their lead. Their league table is somewhat interesting with only 3 points difference between the first and the sixth which is Monaco. The tension is high and Marseille still has the opportunity to catch up with PSG. Lens beat them to deny them the first spot. However, there's still more to watch and fans are excited too. I still see PSG come back to win the league at the end of the season.

Paris Saint-Germain will be the team that will ultimately win the French league title, as everyone expects. I'm sure of that. Marseille held the lead for a while, but lost this week, handing it back to Paris Saint-Germain. Meanwhile, Paris Saint-Germain, after a brief stint in second place, has returned to first place. They're already playing so well that even finishing second was a major surprise.

[Velvet78]

Do you think that after this win, the odds of PSGs chances of winning the championship have decreased further or will Marseille still pose a big challenge !

PSG got only 2 wins in their last 5 games which is unusual to see in the league. However I think their results will get better with the recovery of their important names in the attacking line.

Therefore this makes them technically more favourite now in my opinion. Marseille lost to Lens and the lead both on this week. I just hope someone manages to keep up with PSG as long as possible to keep the title competition alive.

Injuries always matter and this is something that everyone knows, you have to be very careful when you play at high levels, it is essential not to have injuries, and when you have them you must always have a chance to fix the team and make it perform well.

Lille is giving us matches with goals. They lost 3-4 at home to Paok in the UEFA Europa League. Yesterday, they scored six goals against Metz in Ligue 1 and finished the match with a 6-1 victory. Haraldsson, in particular, has started the season very well.
I was surprised by last week's loss to Paok, but that could just be an accident of the trade.
PSG is the heavy favorite in this league, but there are many teams that will challenge PSG this season. Lille is one of them.

I don't think it's possible for Lille to compete with Paris Saint-Germain. Not only them, but no other team in France can compete with Paris Saint-Germain. However, if they manage to win the title like they did in the past, it would be a very meaningful title for them. The chances of another team winning the league against such a great team are extremely slim. Furthermore, we've been seeing some really high-scoring matches from Lille lately. They're very effective in scoring and don't struggle to find the net.

Paris Saint-Germain is sitting in the throne of Ligue 1 for a long time and it was indeed Lille that replaced them once. This season doesn't seem for me any different in terms of the readiness of the other teams to remove PSG from their spot. I find them fluctuating, Marseille for example won against PSG themselves then lost against Lens in Ligue 1 and Rangers before that in UEFA Champions League. This instability whether it was with Marseille or Lille makes PSG looks stronger.
