French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

• Rennes vs PSG

I predict PSG will still win this match, although it won’t be easy because Mendes, a reliable defender, is likely to miss today’s game. Therefore, Rennes will have a chance to score. My prediction is that the match will end 1–2, with BTTS being the straightforward betting option. But, I prefer the PSG win & BTTS option because it offers better odds.

I waited till the final whistle before coming to respond to your comment. PSG was lucky to have equalized the two goals they conceded in the first half, I had already given up on the game when they were down by 2:0  but all thanks to F. Torres who was their savior tonight as he scored brace to help PSG share points with Rennes. Your prediction was almost perfect, Mendes absence affected PSG and Rennes took advantage of their loophole to score, both teams scored but PSG couldn't win cause their second goal so late but hopefully PSG does better in their next match.

I didn't see the first 45 minutes of the game but I was sure as hell they where as bad as shit. I saw the second 45 minutes though where they fought hard to win but couldn't get the necessary three points. I think this is a wake up call the staffs and management that they need to sit up. You can not have such a poor start and expect to continue this way.

I'd say it was superb debut games for thr world cup winner and Spanish international as he was fortunate to score the both goals to get a single point out of the game. The both side scoring predictions came out as expected but not the win.

I waited till the final whistle before coming to respond to your comment. PSG was lucky to have equalized the two goals they conceded in the first half, I had already given up on the game when they were down by 2:0  but all thanks to F. Torres who was their savior tonight as he scored brace to help PSG share points with Rennes. Your prediction was almost perfect, Mendes absence affected PSG and Rennes took advantage of their loophole to score, both teams scored but PSG couldn't win cause their second goal so late but hopefully PSG does better in their next match.

At the start of this season, the reigning UCL champions were on the verge of stumbling but I noticed that the new players joining the team from Barcelona have saved PSG's quality Bbcause even though this player didn't get a place in PSG's starting eleven today, he was able to squeeze out his experience by coming on as a substitute.

Looking at his performance today, we think he might be a game changer because he did the same thing against Argentina in the World Cup final and it was his winning goal that helped Spain win the title.In any case, given Ferran Torres' performance today, we can all assume that the French champions have acquired a very talented player because he scored two goals in the 71st and 82nd minutes of PSG's first match in Ligue 1 today against Rennes club.

[sokani]

The first half ended in a very disappointing way, Stade Rennais scored 2 goals in the first half, I really can't believe that a strong team like PSG will concede 2 goals in the first half. PSG started the match with their strong forwards from the beginning, despite the strong attack of Kvaratskhelia, Dembélé and Doué, they couldn't score any goals. I don't understand if PSG will be able to turn the match around in the second half, but I still hope that in the second half they will be able to equalize the match and take control of the match again. Although the task is very difficult now since they have already conceded 2 goals, let's see if PSG can do something incredible in the second half. They lost 1-0 to Lens in the Trophée des Champions, and now they are in such a disappointing situation in the first match of Ligue 1, anyway let's see if they can turn this match around somehow.

The match ended in a draw. Enrique's halftime substitutions changed the trajectory of the game. Ferran Torres and Fabian Ruiz, who were second-half substitutes, changed the game. Ferran Torres scored a brace, while Fabian Luiz assisted both goals.

I don't know, but it seems some players are not fully fit. I'm referring more especially to Dembele. I noticed he wasn't that sharp in the UEFA Super Cup match against Aston Villa when he came in as a sub, and today Enrique replaced him at halftime with Ferran Torres. Perhaps he should play other players ahead of him until he's fully fit.

I am impressed with Rennes, they performed well tonight by taking advantage of PSG’s weakness to secure one point for themselves, if other teams can all buckle up to stop pSG dominance in the league 1 it will be better for them and their league will not be called farmers league again, but it PSG keeps dominating the League 1, they will lose relevance because people will only watch their league only PSG have a match to play, and other leagues will be rated ahead of them.

Lens, Lyon, Lille, Marseille, and Monaco all win their first games of the season, I will want them to improve this time, winning consistency will actually make PSG to be afraid of losing their position, and the league dominance, and at the end, one of them can win the league.

I almost started by calling the Ligue 1 a farmers league because the way things are happening doesn't make sense at all, imagine PSG started with a poor performance and even if they continue like this losing and playing a draw I believe at the end they'd still become champions, it is annoying that no team in that league are ready to chase them till the end of the season. Now we are proud of how Rennes held PSG to a draw, it was impressive coming from them but can they continue with that style of play especially when they meet PSG at home? We shouldn't praise these guys that much because they feel if they win PSG or draw against them that they have won something big, which is ridiculous. I expect whichever team that is playing against PSG to always maintain that energy even against any other team because playing against PSG and ending up in a draw or by chance get all 3pt should be a motivation to continue in that manner, let's forget it, after today PSG will report for duty. And as for the host team, if they were good enough I believe it would have gone their way with them securing all 3pt.

You can not have such a poor start and expect to continue this way.

Rennes played a very tactical football. I didn’t expect the kind of play I got from them tonight. They were very coordinated behind and looked really dangerous in the attacking position. PSG defense was poor today, Rennes found ways to get behind their lines easily and got the ball right where they wanted it. I suppose PSG underestimated them and only realized when they were 2 goals down.
It was a tough one for Enrique and his boys today but, you just know these guys and their winning mentality, they never were going to lose that game.

[slapper]

It's just being so annoying to me seeing how Lens and the rest of the other teams in the French League aren't stepping up their games to try to dethrone PSG from dominating this side of the league for a very long time now, and I don't know when any of them will be able to do such, live up to expectations, and change this tradition that has long been witnessed here. I expect these other teams to boost their squads and bring in quality players too, as PSG has quite a good number of interesting players on their team who have helped them in maintaining their dominance until today.

For one team to be dominating the league competition, it hardly makes the league interesting. That is why Ligue 1 is not too highly rated, because it is not competitive. I want to see different teams winning Ligue 1, but the way things are going, I don't think any other team will be able to win the league for a long time except PSG.No team is really ready to spend money to bring in new players and strengthen their squad. It has been a long time that I have been looking up to Monaco, Lyon, and Marseille, hoping that they would strengthen their teams seriously and challenge PSG, but they are not ready.

In fact, Lens, a team I didn't even think would be in the race, are now the team competing with PSG. However, with the quality of their squad, it would take a lot of luck for them to win Ligue 1, and even with luck, they would still find it very difficult.It was even last season that I was expecting Lens to take advantage of the situation, as they were not in the Champions League. PSG were also not putting as much effort into the Ligue 1 competition because they had shifted their focus towards the Champions League.

Marseille did spend. They were simply changing managers every 8 months. A team identity cannot be established if the coach is different every other season. It is like renovating a house but changing architects halfway through every time.

Monaco and Lyon have totally different situations. Lyon literally had financial regulators telling them they CANNOT spend. And Monaco is based on developing players and selling them the second they are good. That is how they stay alive. Basically they are an extremely successful academy with the occasional title winning team for around 6 months and only for a short while before the market starts dismantling them.

Where Lens actually lost the title was not against PSG. Those were the autumn games against clubs that were responsible for relegation. October. That is when the championship went downhill. Not due to PSG or the Champions League or anything dramatic.

Luis Enrique knew the right substitution to make in that critical match. Rennes would have left with all three point if Torres had not gotten those two goals in the second half. I think PSG were over confident they would have an easy game only to meet a tense game. If not for Willian Pacho save in the last minutes of game maybe the match would have ended in 3 -2. Rennes gave their best in their first game for the season I expect them to keep up the pace so the can give ligue1 the competition it needs.

I think PSG also played poorly at the start of last season. Perhaps it's due to the way Enrique plans his players' form at the start of the season. They struggle a lot, but gradually reach their peak form towards the end of the season. The Super Cup match against Lens showed they weren't quite there, and the match against Rennes confirmed it. But it's strange that they beat Aston Villa so easily, although perhaps Aston Villa's first match against Brighton shows they're also in very poor form, that's why PSG were able to beat them in the Super Cup. Not the best start to a new season, but I think PSG always play poorly at the start of a new season.

Last season, they played Rennes at home for the first time, and it was already almost halfway through the season. They won 5–0, while away from home toward the end of the season, they lost 3–1. So it seems that PSG simply have a hard time playing away against Rennes.

I don’t remember exactly how they started last season, but I feel like they were already at the top of the table from the very first few rounds, and only occasionally switched between first and second place with Lens. I think this draw was just a fluke, and PSG will sort things out in their next games, although their upcoming matches against Lille and Monaco could also be difficult.

They fell behind 2-0 against Rennes but then equalized with two goals from new signing Ferran Torres, who came on in the second half. Alarm bells are ringing for Paris Saint-Germain. They need to be more careful now. They've lost a final and dropped two points in the league. If they want to win the Champions League again this year, they can't make these kinds of mistakes. I don't see a better team than them in France. The players need to get more involved in the game.

Last season, PSG started well, but worse than usual - they didn't build up a reserve for the decisive part of the season, so at some point it seemed like Lens had a chance.
This season, PSG is off to an even worse start - a defeat in the Super Cup and a draw in the opening game. Honestly, after their Super Cup loss, I couldn't imagine PSG having a second consecutive unsuccessful game, so I boldly added their victory to my multiple bet. Ironically, it was this outcome that ruined it.

Paris Saint-Germain didn't start the season well but it can happen, come on it will be more fun and more compact. Surely Paris Saint-Germain will win again and there won't be any for any team.
The Paris Saint-Germain players are still not in form, from the next match they will try to do better and bring home the 3 points. However, there are two difficult games ahead of Paris Saint-Germain and they will do everything they can to not lose points.

[Waleron Wycliffe]

Defending champion PSG kicked off the season with a draw on the road against Rennes. Rennes, which went into halftime with a lead thanks to goals from Szymanski and Lepaul, struggled to secure a victory. I don’t think this was a bad result for Rennes, which was unable to stop Ferran Torres from scoring two goals.

I don't see any team in the world that would be upset about drawing with Paris Saint-Germain. That's why I think Rennes was happy with their victory. Because even getting one point against a team like Paris Saint-Germain means you're ahead of the rest of the team. They almost got three points, in fact. If they had been a little luckier, they might have even inflicted Paris Saint-Germain's first and only league defeat. Because we know they're not a team that gets beaten easily.

The teams are starting to know how to play with Paris day by day but do you want to hear the truth? Take it or leave it, Paris Saint German would still win the league at the end of the season. What happened yesterday was normal and it happen every season because players have not yet had their physical preparation. PSG will gradually increase their strength little by little as the form comes back and still dominate the league as usual. I really love to see real competition in every league but it's obvious no team can stand PSG in this league for now. You'll be here to lament when other teams you expect to challenge PSG start fumbling and given PSG a free ticket to win the league easily.

Luis Enrique knew the right substitution to make in that critical match. Rennes would have left with all three point if Torres had not gotten those two goals in the second half. I think PSG were over confident they would have an easy game only to meet a tense game. If not for Willian Pacho save in the last minutes of game maybe the match would have ended in 3 -2. Rennes gave their best in their first game for the season I expect them to keep up the pace so the can give ligue1 the competition it needs.

Rennes were impressive in their first match of the season, but judging by the level of possession in that match, PSG shouldn't have struggled. However, I was surprised by the result, as PSG were already two goals down in the first half, even though PSG's players were still superior in quality to Rennes's. Regardless of the result, I hope Rennes can continue to improve throughout the season to create fierce competition with PSG and other teams, and Ligue 1 won't be boring.

Rennes are aiming for a top finish in the French league this year, and they demonstrated this with their performance against Paris Saint-Germain. They even went 2-0 up against the reigning Champions League champions, but we know how high-quality Paris Saint-Germain is. Towards the end of the match, new signing Ferran Torres scored two goals, proving himself to the fans. Everyone was very pleased with his performance, especially since he came on as a substitute in the second half. I don't think Barcelona will regret signing him.

I predict PSG will still win this match, although it won’t be easy because Mendes, a reliable defender, is likely to miss today’s game. Therefore, Rennes will have a chance to score. My prediction is that the match will end 1–2, with BTTS being the straightforward betting option. But, I prefer the PSG win & BTTS option because it offers better odds.

Paris Saint-Germain couldn't win Stade Rennes because Mendes was absent in the game yesterday and with my observation when the match was still going, i noticed the essence why Paris Saint-Germain was missing Mendes that yesterday game, so this is one of the reason why a gambling should always verify or analyze any teams if any of their keys is undergoing treatment of any kind, that will prevent him from not being future in the match, before concluding on how your prediction will look like, as we can see in the match, assuming Torres F. didn't score those goals, i don't know what could have be come the faith of Paris Saint-Germain but at least the game ended 2:2 draw.
