French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)

[ASloveapg]

There aren't that many teams capable of stopping PSG, actually, perhaps Real Madrid and Bayern Munich. Even then, I have my doubts about Bayern, especially considering how poorly they've been defending in their recent matches and how many goals they've been conceding. When PSG's odds started dropping significantly again, I thought there was no point in betting on their home match against Troyes, odds of 1.1 aren't worth considering.

On a norms PSG are among the most strongest teams in Europe right now, but I wouldn’t limit the competition to Real Madrid and Bayern Munich, normally football is not always about having the biggest players or the strongest attacking players, to me cooperation and coordination and I believe with this PSG can cause trouble this season, currently am not a fan of Psg but I truely belief in them because right from day one those niggas have been strong and very hard to defeat even if it’s to draw those niggas are ready and I love them for that.

If we just compare PSG and Real Madrid, on the one hand Real Madrid is a team where the whole team is full of star players, one of the most expensive teams is Real Madrid, but look at their current position, and compare their position with PSG. PSG does not have any star players, but their position is currently much higher than Real Madrid, and PSG is currently the strongest team compared to all the other teams, not Real Madrid. PSG have won the Champions League twice in a row and are now playing with the goal of winning their third consecutive Champions League title. And from this we understand that a team does not only have star players, but a team is sometimes the strongest when they do not have weaknesses and have the players they need, and similarly PSG may not have any star players, but all the players they have in their team are all the best in their place, and Luis Enrique is the best in this regard and he has brought the team to the greatest level.

If we just compare PSG and Real Madrid, on the one hand Real Madrid is a team where the whole team is full of star players, one of the most expensive teams is Real Madrid, but look at their current position, and compare their position with PSG. PSG does not have any star players, but their position is currently much higher than Real Madrid, and PSG is currently the strongest team compared to all the other teams, not Real Madrid.

PSG was a team with all the celebrated stars like Mbappé, Neymar and Messi. Now they have transitioned to younger talents like Ousmane Dembélé, Vitinha, Hakimi, Donnarumma and Marquinhos, and these are really expensive players in the world.

PSG have won the Champions League twice in a row and are now playing with the goal of winning their third consecutive Champions League title. And from this we understand that a team does not only have star players, but a team is sometimes the strongest when they do not have weaknesses and have the players they need, and similarly PSG may not have any star players, but all the players they have in their team are all the best in their place, and Luis Enrique is the best in this regard and he has brought the team to the greatest level.

You need to understand that Real Madrid have won the Champions League 15 times, and PSG won it consecutively recently, with full credit going to their coach, Luis Enrique. There is no question about the squad strength, and it is far too early to write off Real Madrid.

So do you think Bayern can hold PSG to a draw ? I think if Bayern meets PSG now they get defeated by Paris-Saint-German just like last season Champions League, I don't think there is any team that can beat PSG right now, Real Madrid can't beat PSG right now, Barcelona can't beat PSG, Luis Enrique is at his best now when you look how they're playing he is a very tactical manager, right now I don't know what is going to take to beat PSG, they're looking more stronger than before, I was surprised the way they finished Barcelona, there performance against PSG looked like they were playing against same smaller teams in the French League One.

I don't think they would be able to stay in a draw unless the two teams agreed with each other, which I don't think will ever happen, at this moment we can say that there are several teams that can hinder the victory of this team, but at this point let's say that PSG are absolutely the favourites, but football is strange and many things can happen

[UpTober]

Are you sure Bayern can stop PSG? I don't think that's going to happen. How can Bayern, who are currently going through an inconsistent period, possibly beat PSG?
Meanwhile, you're forgetting the King of the Champions League, who is currently right behind PSG.

One important thing to consider is that PSG are no longer the same team they were a few seasons ago. They have sold some backup players, which could limit Enrique's tactical options.

There aren't that many teams capable of stopping PSG, actually, perhaps Real Madrid and Bayern Munich. Even then, I have my doubts about Bayern, especially considering how poorly they've been defending in their recent matches and how many goals they've been conceding. When PSG's odds started dropping significantly again, I thought there was no point in betting on their home match against Troyes, odds of 1.1 aren't worth considering.

PSG have been in great form for the last two seasons and have started the new season well, making it difficult for any team to stop them. Bayern Munich have struggled in their defence in a few matches, although they performed well against Atletico Madrid, but they need to focus more on their midfield. PSG's current squad has some young players who can change the course of a big match at any time, while PSG's experienced defensive line-up and strong midfield have made their team more balanced. In particular, the team's players are able to use Luis Enrique's tactics very well.

And that's enough to let us know that winning games and being above all other clubs isn't determined by the numbers of star and world class players that are in the club.. There was a time that PSG attempted bringing in all the star players imaginable...They started with Mbappe and later Neymar and Messi, but still failed at winning the Champion league...Currently they even have their key players like Dembele and Kvaratskhelia out on injury yet they still manage to perform well and excellently in matches..Team chemistry and understanding is all that matters.. If the players understand themselves, their strengths and weaknesses then they tend to perform better as a team and that's makes a whole lot of difference than being filled with superstar who are always at each others throats at proving their individual talent in the club..

This season, there may be a team that will be able to stop PSG. Maybe we won't see that team right now, maybe we will see that team in the second half of the season. Maybe we will be able to see that team in the knockout stage of the Champions League, it could be Barcelona, ​​Real Madrid, Arsenal or Bayern Munich. The ability to beat PSG lies in these four teams, Barcelona was defeated in the first match. If we meet in the knockout stage, it will definitely be difficult for PSG to beat Barcelona and win the round. For now, we can say that PSG is unstoppable, because it is very difficult to find a team to beat them now.

What is your definition of star players? Ousmane Dembélé, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, and Vitinha could be classified as star players. Yeah, PSG failed to achieve much in Europe when they had some of the expensive players. But the team has developed to produce some of the best players in the world.

I also think it is too early to conclude that the French side would win the UCL three times in a row. Real Madrid might not be at its best now, but you cannot take away the experience and quality players at their disposal. I also believe that Louis Enrique is tactically better than Jose Mourinho. However, I am not underrating the capacity of the special one. Let's wait and see how this will play out this season.

I’m still doubt that Arsenal or even Real Madrid are teams capable of stopping PSG. Both teams still have weaknesses in their defense that make them prone to conceding goals as seen in several matches each has played since the start of the season, where shows they still can’t be considered teams capable of stopping PSG. But I’m convinced that Barcelona or even Bayern Munich are the most likely to stop them given that they’re truly formidable teams. Perhaps Barcelona was defeated by PSG in their most recent Champions League matchup. But I think that’s exactly where they can analyze the game to figure out how to stop PSG in the next round drawing on that experience. As for Bayern Munich they’re a formidable opponent that forced PSG to fight tooth and even nail to defeat them just like in last season’s Champions League matchup.

On the other hand PSG is currently playing against Troyes at the Parc des Princes. And it seems that Troyes has been under a lot of pressure since the start of the match, where we can see that PSG has created numerous scoring opportunities in just a few minutes. PSG is dominating this match statistically overall. And they also have a higher ball possession rate. I predict that PSG will definitely win this match just by watching how the game is unfolding. The current score is still PSG 0-0 Troyes which I think is a great opportunity to place a bet before any goals are scored. And I have no doubt that there will be over 2.5 goals in this match.

[EarnOnVictor]

I could remember when a so-called experienced gambler was lecturing me (unsolicitedly) on the forum that I should have given a handicap to a clear underdog game just because I lost a bet then. I wonder how that would play out in the case of PSG vs Troyes of yesterday, and many others like that. TBH, PSG disappointed everyone despite winning the game. Aside from the fact that Troyes was just a single club away from the relegation zone, the match was played at the Parc des Princes, yet they struggled to score the only one goal produced in the match.

[len01]

The coincidences are certainly interesting, I won’t deny that, but then again, PSG played away against Lorient, whereas they’re playing at home against Troyes. PSG have hit good shape, I don’t think Troyes will be able to hold out.
I placed a bet on a straight win for PSG at odds of 1.13, I probably should have placed it a few days ago - I imagine the odds would have been higher then. As for the handicap bet, I just checked and I actually went with -2.5 instead of -1.5 (a multi bet with a total combined odds of 292, haha!) at 1.90.

Ah, my bad, I missed that. But did you know the match was almost 1-1? Troyes actually scored, but the goal was disallowed for offside.
PSG could have easily ended up losing yesterday because Troyes had two good chances but failed to make the most of them. And sure, PSG are very well organised tactically, but without their key players, it seems like their tactics don't work as well. So I'd say PSG were a bit lucky to get away with it.

Btw, I was actually thinking about betting on under 2.5 yesterday, but I got tempted by the 1-1 correct score at @17 odds instead. And we all know how that ended. Ugh, I hate that!

The game could have gone either way, judging by the statistics, PSG also had a bunch of chances, but they failed to convert them. Overall, I’m glad they at least won and didn’t ruin another multi bet You were actually quite close, and odds of 17 are surprisingly good, I’m used to bookmakers offering around 10.0 for a 0-0 draw these days, and even less - somewhere in the 7.0-8.0 range for a 1-1 draw, so I don’t even bother looking at those markets. It's funny that now the first two places are occupied by two clubs from Paris.

One thing that some fans fail to understand is that when some managers analyse their fixture and see no hope of winning the game, they forget about winning and plan for a draw and to achieve that, they focus on defense than attack. PSG had a great game but could not penetrate the Troyes defense. All the balls were either, cleared or saved. PSG had up to 16 shots, 7 on target but only one made it into the net. You may want to blame the PSG for their performance but also remember that Stephan Dumont also knows that PSG is a stronger side. He played the best football he could to frustrate the PSG team.

Troyes defended all through the game with making about 33 clearances and blocking many shots. PSG was lucky to earn that first half breakthrough because I'm sure Stephan Dumont came for a draw and his players were almost very equal to the task.

In this case, although I would praise the performance of the team that was PSG's opponent, I will not praise PSG's performance. They may have won the match but we did not see the performance that PSG usually performs from PSG in the last match. If we consider Troyes' ranking and if we consider PSG's ranking, then of course I would say that the result was not satisfactory. It was really beyond my expectations that Paris would perform like this on their own home field. However, although in this match the manager actually played the players with a different strategy and benched some players from the starting XI and they won with this team experimentally. Some great saves by the opponent's goalkeeper did not allow the gap to be too large, but if PSG's forward line-up had been regular, the gap could have been more than one.

I come on this thread and I see almost every poster giving Paris Saint-Germans their mandatory flowers but we do not see the same with Paris FC who is currently handled by Liam Rosenior.
His Paris FC sits behind Paris Saint Germans their rivals and neighbours on the League 2 standing. Considering how he did poorly with Chelsea during his short term as interim manager, this is indeed beautiful to experience with Paris FC. I'm not all that in awe because he was this good and brilliant with his Strasbourg side last season. They could be the next Como United who came from a lower division and made it to the Champions League competition. I will be amazing if they make it happen.

For now, we can say that PSG is unstoppable, because it is very difficult to find a team to beat them now.

I believe that the only team that can actually stop Paris Saint-Germain is Arsenal who are pushing on all fronts, even if they still have to work to get to Paris Saint-Germain's pace they can have many possibilities against them, but then we know how football is, you can't always predict and you can't always be right.

[Davidloki]

So do you think Bayern can hold PSG to a draw ? I think if Bayern meets PSG now they get defeated by Paris-Saint-German just like last season Champions League, I don't think there is any team that can beat PSG right now, Real Madrid can't beat PSG right now, Barcelona can't beat PSG, Luis Enrique is at his best now when you look how they're playing he is a very tactical manager, right now I don't know what is going to take to beat PSG, they're looking more stronger than before, I was surprised the way they finished Barcelona, there performance against PSG looked like they were playing against same smaller teams in the French League One.

PSG in their domestic league struggle to win matches and that's something that I find difficult to understand because this is the same team with the best performance in the Champions league currently. Their game yesterday was going to end in a draw until the equaliser was canceled and they won with a 1-0 margin.

Their next game in the Champions league is against Roma and I'm anticipating to see how that game turns out, we know how Roma's current performance has being from playing against Real Madrid and Manchester united.

I commend Liam Rosenior for his performance at Paris FC but you don't need to celebrate their position in the table because a win from Lyon or Lille today will send Paris FC out of the second position. You don't need to compare the performance of Liam Rosenior at Paris FC and Chelsea because both teams are from two different leagues. Managing teams outside the EPL is easier than managing EPL teams. I can see that Paris, Lyon and Lille are trying so hard to maintain a close gap against PSG but they will soon get tired as usual because PSG is the favourite to win the league title again.

[bastisisca]

Yesterday they won in a very simple way without even trying too hard from what i could see, i believe that Paris Saint-Germain saved their strength and concentrated on other things, now the players can't get lost and can't get hurt, that's why they did the bare minimum.

It’s great to see two teams from Paris occupying the top 2 spots in the league Although it didn’t seem very likely, Paris FC is currently sitting in second place, having gone on an impressive run. When Liam Rosenior took charge, many were skeptical, but the league standings prove just how sound a decision that was. Every year, a different French club seems to emerge and rise to prominence last year it was Lens, the year before that someone else and now, Paris FC might well become our next strong French side.

Paris FC match schedule under Liam Rosenior is seven days apart, with no competition to play in between weeks and lots of rest for the players, i value his contribution to the team, but leagues like Ligue 1 are where we can see him do what he does, currently at third position in the French League, and also producing the highest goal scorer for now, this could be the best of Liam.
