PSG have a lot of star players so I think it's not just messi but there are some great players like mbappe as well, I think PSG can tighten their grip on the top spot of Ligue 1 with a win at home to Toulouse on Saturday.

PSG look to be on the right track to successfully defend their Ligue 1 title this season. Even though the reigning champions haven't looked solid lately and while they should have won against Toulouse today, I think PSG should be able to get full points today

Immediately after the world cup PSG without Messi and Neymar lost against 3-1 against Lens. It would be nice to see the club play without  Mbappe. Christophe Galtier would have to find a perfect substitute for the world cup silver medalist because Toulouse is also a good. The have never lost any game in five matches. They have won four and drew just one. They have a crop of young players that can be very offensive in the attacks. PSG defense is usually prone to pressure because Neymar, Mbappe and Messi hardly supports the defense. This fact is the difference between Napoli and other top teams, where you would see almost all the players including Victor Osimhen, always supporting the defense

PSG will surely win today's match. Mbappe is currently out of the XI due to injury. His absence will hurt the team to some extent. But if Messi plays Neymar, something good can be expected.
PSG can only rely upon Messi combined with neymar. Messi may be going out from the club at the end of this season. i don't know what's gonna be happening with PSG after PSG didn't have messi play in the club. PSG will be facing toulouse.
Toulouse may be placed at the bottom of standing but toulouse's performance was increasing drastically. It can be seen from 4 wins that have already been achieved by toulouse from 5 last matches.
PSG must be carefully caused by toulouse may also able to make the result be drawn. that will be a horrible result if PSG will get another draw against toulouse. PSG really needs points right now.

Without two of their most important players, like Mbappe and Neymar, PSG is in for a tough encounter. There is some reason for optimism on their behalf, however. Messi is the only player who can single-handedly change the game for PSG. If he wants to win badly enough, he has the ability to swing the game in his team's favor.

It will be a challenging encounter, to be sure, but PSG has a good chance of coming away with three points if they can keep Messi happy. Keep in mind that Toulouse is only in 12th position with 29 points, and they are playing at home. In other words, we shouldn't write off PSG just yet. They might yet shock us and show us their true colors despite the loss of important players.

Mbappe is certain to be absent from this match, but Neymar is still in doubt. apart from that there are still several other players such as Sergio Ramos, Marco Varratti, who were also absent in this match. plus, Nuno Mendes is a doubt to appear to play. meaning, PSG are in a situation that is not in a pleasant condition both in defense as well as up front.

Referring to some information that I got from several sources, Galtier will use a 4-3-1-2 formation. which means, Messi and Ekitike will be a duet on the front lines. in fact, this match was not too difficult for the Galtier troop squad. because after all, PSG can still rely on Messi and Ekittike. it's just that, Ekittike must be required to play with his best performance. if yes, this fight will still belong to PSG. but if not, the match will be very tough. a draw is possible, but like it or not, PSG must win this match to increase the point gap with the team below them.

The problem maybe in this case is the difference in the individual skills of the players that the two teams have. Toulouse until now is doing well and is quite comfortable with its position in the mid-table especially after a positive note in the last few matches but PSG is still PSG at their full strength especially now they have tried to get out of the disturbing form and draw in their previous matches.
even though in the composition of the players, Toulouse lost far but in a football game nothing is impossible. Toulouse's chances of holding PSG to a draw or beating PSG are also still there

of all the meetings between toulouse vs PSG, toulouse has almost never won against PSG, and in the match that will occur in the next few hours, it will also be like that, PSG will continue to repeat their positive results against toulouse
In this match, Kylian Mbappe will not be strengthened by PSG due to the injury he experienced in the previous match. This makes PSG lose one of its strengths in attack and Mbappe's position is likely to be replaced by Hugo Ekitike. As for the results, I'm not sure how many scores the two teams will score, but it looks like PSG will narrowly win this match later.

I disagree because both Messi, Neymar and Mbappe are all be able to change matches by themselves. However, Messi and Neymar have better skills generally than Mbappe, hence better ability to make game-changing moments.

Mbappe is a great player but he relies more on his speed and if opponents tighten opened space on field, Mbappe is mostly controlled and has very small chance to score goals.

It will be a challenging encounter, to be sure, but PSG has a good chance of coming away with three points if they can keep Messi happy.
Messi will make his decision to stay or leave PSG in the summer. I believe if he wins another Champions League for his career with PSG this time, he will have no reason to continue playing in Europe. Saudi Arabia will become a very attractive destination for Messi to get massive money before his retirement.

PSG have very damn poor form after World Cup 2022 by winning only 3 per 6 matches. A home stadium will be helpful for them to have another win and cool down their crisis.

Yes, Paris Saint Germain really dominated the game and it was an easy win for Paris Siant Germain. Even though new goals were created in the second half, the 3 goals they scored made them very comfortable to finish this game. This result had indeed been predicted by many in advance that Paris Saint Germain would be able to win the match, because the opponent they were facing was not a formidable opponent when viewed from the standings and from the other side.
For tomorrow's match it looks like it will also be easier for PSG to finish it as the next win. Because what PSG will face at home is a team ranked 12th in the standings which is also not so tough, namely Toulouse. Tomorrow's match can also be another golden opportunity for PSG to continue to widen the gap with the teams Marseille and Lens, who are respectively in second and third place in the Ligue1 standings.
PSG has odds @1.43 and no wonder why the odds for them quite low because obviously they are the favourite to win this match and actually it's not so difficult for PSG to win the match because from recent meetings PSG has gets 6 winning streak from Toulouse before but if i am not mistaken PSG will playing without several keys players such as Ramos, Mbappe and Neymar who got injured and Verratti who got suspension and i think losing these players will have any effect for PSG performance but they still have Messi and after world cup his performance quite stable although he haven't scored many goals yet but sometimes Messi can scoring important goals and bringing PSG to win the match

For the next match against Toulouse, I think it's still not an easy match, because even though PSG are playing at home and also Toulouse's position in the Ligue 1 standings, they are only in 12th place with 29 points. Because in the absence of several key PSG players who cannot be played, such as Mbappe and also Neymar, it seems that this factor will make it difficult for PSG to gain full points.

Because so far in my view, when some of PSG's key players cannot be played, it is often difficult for PSG to beat the opposing team even though the opponent they are facing is not a strong team.

Actually I can't say Lens played badly against Nice. They were quite effective on the front. They had a huge opportunity to get ahead first in the first half as well but Schmeichel did a really nice job to prevent them there. Nice's goal was totally due to a defensive mistake. Machado was sleeping there while Laborde finishing the attack with a goal by a single touch. Fofana was really close to scoring the equalizer later on but he targeted the goal post I'm afraid.

Lens could have got one point at least. Now they are behind Marseille and Marseille definitely deserved the position after a great form.
This collapse were expecting from the Lens because they were doing amazing job in first half of the season and having second spot for very long time, but they are not strong enough to hold this spot with this average squad with they were losing points consistently in away games, but now they have lost game at home which is surely big setback for them at crucial time of the season while Marseille is also having good run, and now they will not allow them to challenge them for this spot with Monaco is also improving their quality and performance for third spot which is having just 4 points difference, but sadly Monaco is also losing points like Lens in away matches which is not ideal for them if they want to jump at third spot at the end of this season.

Today, nothing interesting for me, more important is tomorrow's Derby de la Cote D'Azur! I would normally want to support Nice in that game, but at the same time I would be very happy to see Marseille close the gap or actually, depending on today result, maintain the gap! In any case, this was last season's most famous game so let's see if there is more fire and blood;) There is hope too because Toulouse have won their last 3 games by coming from behind, so we know they are on great form.

Didier Drogba will be looking forward but I tip Azzedine Ounahi to remind everyone again he's not a one-show wonder Smiley

In the match between Montpellier vs PSG in the French Soccer League, PSG won by 3 goals. However, we know that PSG is a very strong team. PSG team is now at the 1st position in the points table.  Both teams scored after half time. Montpellier scored 1 goal in this match. However, I enjoyed a very peaceful game between the two teams. I hope to enjoy the game of PSG vs Toulouse again tomorrow.

After having few poor results now they are back in their business specially while they were preparing for their big game against Bayern Munich which is having just few days, and they are missing their star player Mbappé through injury and good support from the Nice as they defeated Lens in away game and create good difference in points which was cutting through good performance from the Lens in last few weeks.

Now we have two good games which will also having good impact on the league table first PSG is going to host Toulouse which is currently best in form and doing amazing job after this match we have Marseille vs Nice which is also now having second spot and wants to stay here until end of this season for the direct qualification into Champions League.

This time Marseille are going to be hosting Nice after Lens failed against them. I think this will be an example of how you should play against Nice. Because I expect a clear win by Marseille in this match. When we check the head-to-head match history we can see that Marseille are quite dominant in home ones. They lost the last 5 home matches against them. Considering Marseille's current condition I don't see any reason for them to be stopped by Nice in this one.

They will still need to be careful though. Because Nice defeated one of the top teams in the standings eventually. This will motivate them to maintain a good form. But I don't think they can steal points from an in-form Marseille. Maybe both teams to score might be another nice choice.
Both Marseille and Nice have a good record since many rounds and any one of them could win this game eventually. The difference between them is that Marseille is a bit more powerful and playing home. Nice recent victory vs Lens made them look as a threat to Marseille and increased their chances in people perspective but I think that Marseille is favourite in this game.
In last five meetings Marseille never lost against Nice with current form is also favourable for the home team they have good record in last few games just having draw against the Monaco, but currently Nice is not at the level of Monaco and have no chance to create any problems for them after long gape now Marseille is also doing good job and have good reward for their performance they are able to achieve second spot in league table and now having challenge from PSG for the top rank because PSG is having injuries issue which can help them for having good chance for the Marseille to give them fight for the title race.

Lens were also in good shape but suddenly poor run give them below, and now they are at the third spot with still have time and chance to achieve their spot back from Marseille which is surely not easy but still all things possible in the game.

I was supporting Lens to challenge psg for the Ligue 1 title, and they were doing very good and were so close to psg, but then they drew 1-1 against Troyes, and lost 1-0 to Nice a few days later, this has affected them so much on the Ligue 1 table, they have even fallen below Marseille and are now in third position, while Marseille are in second place. I felt this season would have been a good time for a different French club than psg to win the Ligue 1 title, psg aren't playing in their best way, but there is no team that is ready enough to go ahead of them in the table, so they will be Ligue 1 champions again.
Lens's loss is disappointing since they seemed to be a serious challenger to PSG in the Ligue 1 championship race. I understand how disappointing it is when your team doesn't perform as hoped, but there's still a lot of football to be played this year.

While I agree that PSG isn't quite clicking right now, I do think that they still possess a strong core of skill and experience. Any team would have to do really well to pass them in the standings, which is why the competition is so fascinating. And nobody knows what will happen in the remaining contests. It's possible that Lens may rediscover their form and challenge PSG.

As I said in a previous post, Lens is not strong enough to be one of the strong contenders for the Ligue 1 trophy. after all, PSG is still too strong for its opponents in this competition. although in several matches, PSG experienced a decline in performance plus several of its players were injured. Mbappe's absence in the coming weeks will not have a big impact on the Ligue 1 competition. But it will be a problem when PSG host Bayern.

Speaking of Lens, in his last two matches in Ligue 1. Lens did not get satisfactory results. even though, their opponent was a team that could be said to be not too strong. next, Lens has quite tough matches including leaving one meeting against PSG and Marseille. I doubt they will be able to maintain the consistency of their performance, until the end of this season.

Meanwhile, Marseille has been able to shift the ranking that has been occupied by Lens so far. Igor Tudor's squad won seven games out of eight in the second half of the season.  even so, at least Marseille and Lens, still have a chance to compete with the top standings. even then, if PSG experienced some problems when carrying out match after match in Ligue 1.

Anything other than PSG winning the Ligue 1 would be a surprise to everyone, but PSG suffers from one weakness: at times they totally get off track in their minds. They literally lose their minds and fall apart as a squad. So far they have managed to keep critics quiet very well because Messi, Neymar and Mbappe handled their statuses quite well and more or less respected each other. They also haven't really been under pressure. Now this could really change if they drop another three points in a game and are in real danger to lose the lead in any game afterwards. That is when more discussions might arise among the top stars as well. Who is going to take a penalty? Or the free kick? Or why did someone not pass the ball in a certain position? These questions usually don't arise as much when everything goes smooth all the time and everyone is scoring and winning. Put on top of that their schedule and the upcoming Champions League games when they also might want to leave some off the players at home during Ligue 1 games.

Overall I believe that this season isn't over yet and it could perhaps become very interesting once more. It already started with Mbappe's injury.

Also Toulouse has a good record in its last few matches, although in 5 matches head to head they have a bad record against PSG but tomorrow match might be different. With the absence of Neymar and Mbappe this will certainly benefit Toulouse, meanwhile I think PSG will be lucky if they get a draw. I guess this will be third defeat of PSG, but I hope I'm wrong.

On the 12.02.2023 One of the most interesting game is expected to be played and that is the match between Lyon and Lens, this two teams will meet within the France Ligue 1 and fight for an opportunity to qualify for the final.The head to head record for Olympique Lyonnais vs RC Lens is worth a look. Olympique Lyonnais have won 2 meetings with RC Lens, while RC Lens have won 1. There have been 2 draws between these two sides. In the match any side can take the day but Lyon is the favourite considering the fact that the are at home.
