PSG are just getting close to announcing their championship in the league every week. The gap with Marseille has become 10 points already.

I don't see any way Marseille are catching up with them from now on. Because they aren't even consistent these days. After losing to PSG home this time they got a draw against Strasbourg home. Balerdi's incident just finished them. Strasbourg aren't even one of the decent teams in the league this season. They are trying to hold onto the Ligue 1 not to relegate. Marseille need to play more carefully in such games to finish them without point loss.

there may be improvement when meet reims, like you said, marseille aren't consistent on every match, sometime playing well but sometimes playing bad even they play in home. I just heard a coach just change a strategy to face reims, i don't know exactly, maybe they can get 3 points to reduce different point with PSG.

It is very difficult to catch up with Paris Saint Germain now, moreover they are certain to make Ligue q their main focus after they failed in the Champions League. The points gap will be very difficult for them to catch up with, and I can confirm that Paris Saint Germain will win the title again this season without any significant obstacles in the remaining matches this season.

Paris Saint Germain got lots of superstar payers and much more investments compared to the other teams so I guess for the other teams like Marseille and Monaco it's difficult to get close to them, however after they lost in the champions league, Neymar got injured and Messi going to leave, PSG's atmosphere is not good like the other days and I guess there is a chance for them to lose some points during the games they are going to have.

Consistency is big problem for the all top teams other than PSG in Ligue 1 as we can watch mostly are fail to give their best and now having troubles for retaining their spots at top spot Monaco suddenly facing serious trouble and now lost 7 points from their last three games, and now they are at fourth with Lens now also having improvement after few poor weeks which is challenging for the Monaco and their hopes for the third spot Rennes are also going down with another team which lost their 7 points in last five games Marseille is relatively better but still looking for the improved results which helps them for staying at the second spot even now title hopes are ended and PSG are clearly going to lead the table for another title after losing their another broken dream defeat against Bayern Munich.

Talking about consistency performance from Ligue 1 team I still remember in season 2020/2021 have surprised made by Lille after success finish as the winner with 1 points left from PSG at the end of league. After Lille become the winner of Ligue 1 there are not any compete team keep consistence and dominance on top standing position how to make PSG not comfortable with their current standing.

Right now have been matchday 27 and have 11 matches left but PSG keep confidence having 10 points left from Marseille, seems if four or six games winning later potential for PSG dominance winning Ligue 1 tittle this season due inconsistency performance from Marseille on 2nd standing position and still not sure with Lens or AS Monaco capacities keep compete how to destroy PSG dominance.

That's the downside of the Marseille play style and the way they defend. They play very attractive football that is fun to watch, with many players finishing actions but then again that puts them at risk like we saw more than once this season.

I think that Tudor already gave up on the title race after that debacle against PSG few weeks ago and his goal is to try finish in top 3 and qualify for CL next season (preferably finishing 2nd as it guarantess CL spot). With that being, since Marseille is the best away team and Reims is in a very good form, I think that draw is probably the more realistic and that's what I'll most likely bet on.

Despite their erratic performance in Marseille, the team is still far more organized and strong than Reims. But the Reims team has also been unbeaten for a long time. They will put up a tough fight against Marseille to get the points. But I have seen the results of past matches between these two teams. Reims has not won a single match in the last 5 matches between these two teams. Marseille won 3 matches and drew 2 matches. It is easy to see that Reims has a tough opponent in Marseille. I consider Marseille the favorite in the match. However, the match is likely to be a draw.

That's right, especially Lyon, which usually enlivens the competition for the Ligue 1 title, had to accept bad luck lately and had to settle for being in the middle of the standings. I think this match will be really fun, there might be unexpected surprises like Nantes being able to beat Lyon in this match.

I don't think so because lyon last season they finished in 8th place, it's not a good record for them. this season the same thing has happened to Lyon where they are still not strong enough to compete in the top 4 because their squad depth is not too strong compared to the 2020/2021 season.

I have more doubts about Monaco this season, where they have lost several points in the last 5 matches they have played. this makes their points closer to the 5th and 6th ranked teams. now if the situation doesn't improve in the upcoming matches I think Rennes will be able to match the points tally with Monaco.

Lyon having second consecutive year with poor form just because of this performance right now they are at the 10th with most chances they could be not able to jump into top seven which is surely concern for the management because few years back they were good and mostly have spot into top four which is now beyond their limits hopefully we will have better strategy and players in coming season which will bring better results for this team.

Another team which is suffering Monaco as they were doing good but now suddenly they are also having bad performance which is bringing them down and if they are not able to have improved then surely things could be worst as they are currently at fourth, and they need to be at third for their chances into Champions League for the next season Lens is doing good and have good season as well which is helping them for having good results.

Inconsistency is the key problem for Marseille as they failed to grab three points in league games which could have boosted them closer to PSG. While PSG dominates their home league, there isn't a very competitive fight for the Ligue One championship this year. Marseille was the lone rival for the Parisians, but it appears that they were unable to catch the men of Christophe Galtier. There is a significant 10 point difference between Marseille's 17W, 5D, and 5L in 27 games this season and PSG's 21W, 3D, and 3L. The indications are that PSG will win the title once more this season as this campaign draws to a close.

The distance of 10 points could have been caught if only Marseille could win consistently but what happened was the opposite, Marseille seemed to have run out of enthusiasm to compete for the Ligue 1 title this season and that made PSG even safer to defend the title. I think there was something wrong with Marseille in the last few matches and it seems like coach Igor Tudor can't change that which has made his players perform so badly so far.

It's not a big news for them and their fans. Ligue 1 is a too small title for PSG and they are very familiar of lifting it in mostly every season. This season will be another season they take it but again this season will be another failed season for them by being eliminated too early in Champions League.

Quote from: Docnaster on March 15, 2023, 05:14:04 PM

Marseille used to be one of the best teams in French football but I've not actually taken my time to look in to the clubs problems that's left them supplicating to remain in the top four as the best they can do for themselves as a team.

It is far in the past and Marseille have never came closely to beat PSG in Ligue 1. In their most successful seasons recent years, they only managed to play impressive in Ligue 1 (but not enough to win it) and went a little bit far in Champions League.

Quote

The fact that no other French team is fully ready to give PSG a good fight for the Ligue 1 title is the main reason why the French league will continue to be boring and easily predictable. It's time they other teams rise up to their feet

With massive spent finance to buy players and give them so good salary which are all far better than other clubs in Ligue 1, it's natural to see PSG completely dominate the league in many years.

Marseille don't play like they really want to keep the second position in the standings. We can give the last match as an example for this.

They had a match home against Strasbourg. It was a really interesting match first of all. Balerdi's red card was just an unbelievable one. He made a really amateurish mistake there and caused his team to be in a bigger trouble. But still Marseille got 2-0 ahead with 10 players. In the last minutes I was feeling pretty confident about their win but Aholou changed the fate of the match suddenly. He scored 2 goals in 2 minutes and suddenly became the savior of his team. He was even nearly making a hat-trick if it weren't for that nice save.

Both Lyon and Nantes teams are relatively underpowered. Still, Lyon is stronger than Nantes. Even then it is not right to say anything in advance because sometimes very strong teams are defeated by bad teams. But in all these matches the performance of both the teams is good. But I hope I enjoy this match too. But I will support Lyon.

I don't think so, the condition is still quite better than the defeat against PSG and at least 1 point after they play with 10 people.
Although the condition is a little difficult after now the lens start to catch up with but in this case I still feel Marseille will still be able to maintain her position in runner up until the end of the season.

To be honest, I wasn't surprised by their failure in the Champions League, because I saw that they weren't really ready to compete at a higher level like the Champions League. It may be true that they have a very promising squad filled with lots of star players, but that's no guarantee they will be successful in the competition. I admit they are a strong team, but they have to improve themselves again to be able to compete in a competition where many strong teams take part.

I think the fact that they definitely focused on UCL more than anything else was the thing that made this year more shocking. So much so that they fired pochettino and hired a new manager just because they wanted to focus on UCL and get the win there, and then they ended up losing to a Bayern team that is barely keeping bundesliga leadership, imagine facing a bigger team like City, Haaland would have destroyed that defense without a doubt.

Long story short, a 3-5-2 tactic against one of the best midfields in the world was a mistake, they failed to defend well and that is why their "it is 3-5-2 but also 5-3-2 at the same time" switch didn't work at all.

One of the matches this week will bring Lyon vs Nantes. As we know, Lyon in the previous two matches always won a draw and made their position stuck in 10th place in the standings. Lyon will be the host, for sure they will try to win this match so they can shift Lorient's position in the standings and for Nantes who will play Lyon's home game, they are currently in 14th place in the standings and it looks so bad because they only won one victory in the last 5 matches of ligue 1.

Lyon vs Nantes both teams fell short of expectations this year. I see Lyon advantageous as they are the hosts in the match they will play against each other. Of course, if Nantes wins, that might be normal after all. Nantes is very weak in terms of performance. Lyon, on the other hand, wants to rise to the top. I'm sure the game will be enjoyable.

We know Lyon is a team we usually saw them in the top of the table racing for the title but they are not performing well like in their old days anymore and they lost many good players they had and we can't expect to see the same performance we saw from them in the previous season, this time have to face Nantes and they never lose a game against this before but there is still the possibility for them to lose this week.
