Marseille is back to winning ways after winning 0-2 at host Clermont in last night's game. Statistically, Marseille played very well in this match with 7 shots on target and 68% ball possession, while Clermont did not perform optimally as the host, but their goalkeeper has pretty good statistics with 5 saves. This result further shortened the gap between Marseille and PSG, which is only 5 points away.
Marseille is highly favored to win the match and they did very well, with PSG's loss to Monaco making Marseille reduce the point gap on the standings, now the difference in points between the two teams is 5 points.
but PSG's defeat against Monaco was highlighted because in the next match PSG will face Bayern on the Champion League stage, and until now the PSG team has not been consistent especially if some of their core players are absent then the game will look much different.
PSG's inconsistency this season makes it possible for other teams to compete strictly at the top of the standings, but with the strengths that the team has, of course PSG has the biggest chance of being able to win this season.
Indeed, PSG's inconsistency this season has been put to good use by several of its rival teams to continue to be able to catch up with PSG's points, including Marseille's current victory which will bring their distance even closer. Talking about PSG against Monaco, I think here PSG really depends on their key players and in that match Mbappe's absence made coach Galtier try to rotate his players and the results were very bad, this proves that if PSG loses just one key player they can get bad results.
Meanwhile, against Bayern Munich in the UCL match later, PSG will again surrender to their current condition because PSG will appear with an incomplete squad due to the two players Mbappe and Messi having to be absent due to injury problems. So how can PSG beat Bayern Munich in the match later? isn't this too difficult for PSG? Will Galtier try a new strategy again? even playing at home does not guarantee they will win later.
