French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

I was surprised that PSG scored 5 goals against Marseille because I expected Marseille to be more resilient. But PSG played very well and made the most of their opportunities. Marseille's defense made too many simple mistakes. The goalkeeper was also very poor. I can now understand why Marseille are behind Lens and Lyon. They need better defenders and a better goalkeeper.

Well I’m also very surprised by that result, immediately at the start of the second half Marseille started playing a bit well and that was when I thought they’ll will still score in the game but PSG still took the ball and dominated the second half also.

So Facunda Medina scored a wonderful header but against his own team ..they seriously need improvement in that defense.

Dembele had a wonderful game last night scoring two goal and giving out an assist even though he played only for 75 minutes.

I saw Marseille and mistakes all over, their front line was good but not today, the defense was terrible and it seems like it was a different Marseille that came to play the return leg. 5nil is too much and that is why we can never see Marseille or any team in the Ligue 1 facing PSG and making them struggle to win home and away, no team is giving them a hard time in the league. Everything about Marseille is zero and nothing to write home about so where are the big teams that can make PSG feel the heat every season? No team in the whole of Ligue 1 and it will continue like that until maybe they ban the club PSG from playing in the Ligue 1.
As it stands, Lens are better than Monaco, Lille, Lyon and the 5nil Marseille, Lens maintained their stand on the log and they are also waiting for PSG to make one last mistake before they switch to the other side to get a win and top the league table, it seems easy but a very hard task for Lens, they should try and gather more points for now and wish for something productive happen in their favor.

I think that Marseille are solely to blame for such a heavy defeat. Throughout the season, they have been very inconsistent, there are matches where they look excellent and it seems that De Zerbi has managed to raise Marseille to a higher level. But then there are games where they lose either to much weaker opponents or suffer heavy defeats like the one against PSG yesterday. On the other hand, PSG also have matches where they catch momentum and can score from almost any position. But above all, I believe that Marseille’s defense is the main reason for such a loss.

It really was an incredible victory. I personally didn't expect to see PSG win so easily in yesterday's game, but I'm a little worried that they won't play well in the next game against Rennes because they have a Champions League game afterwards, and PSG this season consistently hasn't played well when they have a Ligue 1 game followed by a Champions League game. Lens isn't giving them any rest this season, so a mistake by PSG could be costly.

If you talk about inconsistency they are good at that and it's so annoying to see how they allowed PSG to dominate the game like they can't withstand the pressure from the beginning of the game to the end and they can't pressure PSG too like they did in the first leg even if it ended 1nil, that same energy should be applied to yesterday's game. De Zerbi was confused like nothing was working even when they counter it never made the defense of PSG to shake a little. Going against PSG should tell them that they are playing against the best team in Ligue 1 and the current champions, it should be like the final game, for me the game was one sided.

Because Lens are right behind them in the league, Paris Saint-Germain have to focus on their league matches as well. They can't use their rotation squad very effectively, and when they try to, they sometimes drop points. Therefore, I think Paris Saint-Germain's matches after their Champions League tie carry the risk of dropping points.

The biggest game in French ligue 1 is been played between two rivals in the French ligue 1 today and already the home team PSG is leading the away team Marseille by 2:0. I game promises to be tough but from what am seeing tonight in this first half, PSG is likely to have an easy one against Marseille in this game it seems that PSG is gradually getting back to their usually form.

Marseille were completely embarrassed by PSG in that match, failing to score a single goal against PSG, resulting in a crushing 5-0 defeat. This shows that PSG has recovered, as you said, and they can always defeat any opponent with a high score in Ligue 1 without any problems. Now PSG just need to focus more on the Champions League, as they did last season, as in Ligue 1 they usually have an easier time facing any team without any difficulty.

Many considered Marseille to be one of the most worthy contenders for the Ligue 1 title. Hopefully, they have been proven wrong. The title race is between PSG and Lens. The other teams are far behind.

The result of this match surprised everyone. PSG won by a huge margin of 5-0. Marseille players lost confidence in this match. They could not resist PSG's attacks or even counterattack strongly. PSG dominated from the start of the match. Dembele scored 2 goals in the first half. Chaya Lee Kang-in, Medina and Kvaratskhelia scored one goal each.

[$weetne$$]

It was an expected defeat from my end because I was expecting PSG to get their revenge in this game because Marseille defeated them in the first leg beating them now cancels it but the 5:0 was not expected because I know Marseille to be a good team at least they are not that poor in form to make certain mistakes but they were very poor today and they got punished for their errors. The goal keeper was confused at some point I thought he was going to be substituted because of his errors but may be he's their best godly keeper that's why he stayed.

Even not as a revenge, PSG was expected to win this fixture looking at what they have ahead of them as it regards the title race for this season, I really did expected nothing less from them.but I did not see the goalless loss from Marseille, they were expected to get at least a goal in a situation as this but sadly that was not the case for them.

Marseille actually disappointed everyone yesterday, even though they knew what PSG are capable off but it is graceful to see them being defeated in that manner. So many people believe in Marseille performance as they started with a very beautiful performance hoping that they will be a threat to PSG but unfortunately PSG cleared the the doubt of thousands fans that believe they will fall this season. For the past so many seasons now PSG has been on top when it comes to French League and also pSG is among the best team in even Europa.

The main reason why PSG is always at the top of every club in the French League, this is because they have the resources which is why they go for any player they want.

I thought there was a very high probability that both teams would score, but Paris Saint-Germain didn't let Marseille do it. After their victory in the first match, many wondered if Marseille could pull off a surprise in this game. They had beaten another title contender, Lens, in their previous match, changing the course of the league. However, Paris Saint-Germain put on a magnificent performance, scoring 5 goals and giving Marseille no chance. Paris Saint-Germain is now starting to assert its dominance in Ligue 1, and I believe they can increase their point difference in a few weeks. Lens's fight was magnificent, and they are still resisting, but I don't think they can hold on for long. At some point, they will fall behind in the race, and I think Paris Saint-Germain will go on to win the championship alone.

What PSG did was beyond winning to take over their 1st position from Lens, if you have been following their performance you would have noticed how they struggled to win in their other games but against Marseille they took it personal with them and never allowed them to have the opportunity to put the ball at the back of their net. Marseille was handicapped that's why they couldn't score and the sad reality is that Marseille helped PSG to defeat Lens that was ahead of PSG in the  group table.

These teams are not yet ready to face the strongest team in Europe, if not the strongest, one of the strongest, they are definitely organized and they went like an avalanche against Marseille, this is a fact they should have prepared the match better so they only made gross errors and left room for everyone to score goals.

PSG still remains one of the strongest team in Europe they are the best time in the league and they have good number of players that can defeat their opponents you don't expect them to have mercy on Marseille when they faced them because if they had given Marseille a single opportunity to defend properly the errors you saw wouldn't have been noticed and the goals would not be scored.

What did he say in his quote? That PSG was supposed to temper justice with mercy?  How funny is that?
You think if Marseille were in PSG's position, they won't hunt even for more goals? I was even upset that at some point, Paris kept missing valuable chances that should have been goals.. Otherwise, the least goal for that match should have been 8. Marseille is so vulnerable that every single time the ball is played, their opponents was going for a counter. They just defending although till the match was over.

Khvicha Kvaratskhelia's goal was the best part of this match IMO. This looked more like a training session to PSG than a match day live.

[dezoel]

Lens is still in the fight. Today there's a match between Paris Saint-Germain and Marseille. If Paris Saint-Germain loses points in that match, Lens will be back in the title race because the point difference between them is already very small. They want to continue their good form this year in the French league. Because their only chance of winning the championship against Paris Saint-Germain is to continue this good form. Right now they seem to be living a dream, and hopefully this dream continues for them. It's starting to get tiring to see a single team dominating France for so long.

It is true that Lens is still fighting, not sure if it will matter or not, but it is clear that they are doing their very best and that is what matters. Maybe they won't win the league at the end of the season like all of us expect, but it is still matters that they are fighting hard for it.

Being second place still gives them a huge profit, between tv rights, merch and next years UCL and all, the yare going to make more money next year than this year combined than they have in a long long time. So this fighting matters.

It was an operation no mercy for PSG yesterday on Marseille. If PSG didn't take the match seriously and score those number of goals Marseille might think they're strong enough to equalize the few goals that PSG would have scored but scoring high number of goals will make Marseille get more frustrated and give up easily on the match.

Paris Saint-Germain is one of the strongest teams in Europe starting from France and going east, along with Bayern Munich of course. Otherwise comparing to some teams in Spain and England, the level of PSG this season is way low than them.
PSG trashed Marseille badly in yesterday's match. If this means something then it is Marseille weakness rather than PSG power. Osman Dembele presence in this game was obvious, he let kill the game since the first half of it.

PSG's victory against Marseille was expected, but we saw more than the desired result. They may have ended the bad form they have been going through in the last few days yesterday. Maybe they are preparing for the Champions League matches and will try to do something great in the knockout matches this season, like last season. Now in the Champions League it is more important for them to make a big difference than winning matches, yesterday was probably that preparation. However, it was an easy match for PSG.

[cande86]

I saw Marseille and mistakes all over, their front line was good but not today, the defense was terrible and it seems like it was a different Marseille that came to play the return leg. 5nil is too much and that is why we can never see Marseille or any team in the Ligue 1 facing PSG and making them struggle to win home and away, no team is giving them a hard time in the league. Everything about Marseille is zero and nothing to write home about so where are the big teams that can make PSG feel the heat every season? No team in the whole of Ligue 1 and it will continue like that until maybe they ban the club PSG from playing in the Ligue 1.
As it stands, Lens are better than Monaco, Lille, Lyon and the 5nil Marseille, Lens maintained their stand on the log and they are also waiting for PSG to make one last mistake before they switch to the other side to get a win and top the league table, it seems easy but a very hard task for Lens, they should try and gather more points for now and wish for something productive happen in their favor.

Marseille is not a team that can do well, they cannot continue to do like this, they cannot score and fight for the title, that's why i keep saying that Paris Saint-Germain will have an easy life as long as these teams are around and this will continue and they will continue to win undisturbed without stopping.

Honestly, I never expected the result because of the form Paris Saint Germain was and if I'm not mistaken Marseille has more form than Paris Saint Germain but yet they defeate Marseille with a lots of goals and because of Paris Saint Germain form I doubted that they will be able to defeat Marseille but i was so shocked at the result and that is why history always matter most times because Paris Saint Germain use to win them and it is obvious they want to win the league.
