A perfect season for PSG because they were able to win the first two matches with a big score. In the first match PSG beat Le Havre with a score of 1-4 and in today's match they were also able to score 6 goals where they managed to lock in a victory with a final score of 6-0. I think Mbappe's departure did not have a bad impact on PSG's performance in Ligue 1 because they performed better with teamwork.

On the other hand, I see no obstacles for PSG in the first two matches because they were able to dominate the game and also pressure their opponents very tightly. If PSG manages to maintain their good performance, maybe there won't be a fierce competition in Ligue 1

The match actually ended 6:0 in favour of Paris Saint German. PSG have started very well because they have just won their first two matches of the season with high goal margin and it's a good one for the club because a lot of people were thinking that since Kylian Mbappé left the club that they will not find it easy but here they are starting the season's campaign very well. Even though the two teams they met so far are mediocre teams but it's not easy to win by such huge goal differences because in their first match against Le Havre they won by 4:1 and tonight they won Montpellier 6:0 so in total now they have 9 goals difference and 6 points. Luis Enrique is really doing a good job and I hope it continues.

Paris Saint-Germain 6 - 0 Montpellier HSC

I'm still trying to understand what the hell happened to Montpellier in this game for them to have conceded 6 goals. The funny thing is that there were no penalties in this game. 3 goals were scored in the first half and another 3 goals were scored in the second half. With 69% possession, PSG is playing much better than when they had Mbappe. Maybe it's because they don't have a player who is the center of attention, so all the players feel freer on the field. In 2 games, PSG has already scored 10 goals. They're performing very well without Mbappe. I thought that with Mbappe gone, PSG would be weakened. but I can see that I was wrong



PSG's performance without Mbappe in Ligue 1:

2 games, 2 wins, 10 goals scored, 1 goal conceded.


In past seasons, PSG, when they had Mbappe and other good players, didn't score many goals very often, so we can't underestimate the great achievements of the current squad without Mbappe. I also don't see Ligue 1 as being weak. That would be the same as saying that La Liga or the Premier League are also weak, because in La Liga only Real Madrid and Barcelona win, and in the Premier League Manchester City dominates the league.

The Parisians are not just better, they are much better, and not just in the case of this opponent, but probably with almost the whole league, so it is not surprising that they end the matches with such a crushing score. My personal opinion is that Ligue 1 is either a weak league because it has no rivals to PSG since the Arabs took over, or PSG are too good for the league. If this continues there is no doubt they will win the league again this season

There are different clubs that have priorities to meet up and this time, winning comes smoothly. Paris Saint-Germain thrashing Montpellier 5-0 and this is absolutely an incredible score for Les Parisiens. They're the Giant of Ligue One and will always prove themselves worthy. PSG headcoach, Luis Enrique have made his settings and without Kylian Mbappe, they're winning matches.

PSG is exercising a perfect form of dominance in this game and so far they are leading by a land slide victory which i believe by the end of this game, they will be winning the game without any further stress and if you take a look at the goals, they are such brilliant goals such that they are even winning even before the 80th minute of the game, this is looking like one of the simplest games they have won in recent times, they have both possession and attempts more than their opponent and ofcourse i wasn't expecting any less from them not as they are playing from home against an average team who is trying to get better in the domestic league.

This will stand as a prove to the opinion that PSG is still in a good and brilliant form especially for their domestic league and may likely still maintain their dominance awhile, the only challenge they may encounter may be with external leagues away from their domestic leagues but within their domestic leagues, they still maintain a good form as they have got a good depth that may not be compared with other teams, hopefully they win the league title again this season, their main target is the champions league.

PSG has become unstoppable this season following the exit of Kylan Mbappe. Could it be that he was their obstacle? Tonight they are leading Montpellier five goals to zero in a match they dominated even in terms of play. It seems Mbappe have been hindering some of their key players from giving their best as all attention were on him. They won their last match with also a very wide margin which is an indication that they are back to business and not too affected by the departure of their key man, Mbappe.

The match will be fierce between Olympique Lyon and AS Monaco, but I doubt the final result will end with 1 goal being scored, look at the total goals market, to get almost @2 odds, bettors must dare to choose over 3.25 goals which means there's a high probability of 3 or 4 goals here, I assume that AS Monaco will win in this match with a score of Lyon 1 - 2 AS Monaco or it could end with a draw with Lyon 2 - 2 AS Monaco.

Nobody can deny that PSG will have easy time beating Montpellier, it doesn't even look close and it should be an easy win for them without a doubt. I am not saying that it is going to be easy or hard, I am just saying that it is going to be not that easy at all.

There is no doubt that PSG is still a very strong team this season and while some people are expecting them to be a lot worse because of Mbappe, first game showed that the yare still the strongest team in this league, on top of that Montpellier is one of the weaker teams in the league, like if it was Monaco or something then we could have said that it would be a closer game or Marseille would have been a good example for that, however when it's Montpellier we can say that it is not even remotely close to each other.

Of course anything could happen and the football gods sometimes could be not on your side and you could get unlucky, PSG had one of those games against Dortmund last year, they missed so many chances that could have gone in, and because of that unlucky situation they couldn't go to the finals. In the end, it was for the best because seeing Mbappe trying to win against the team he is just about to go to seemed unfair a bit.

It doesn't matter whether Montpellier is able to play well or not in this match, because PSG has been confirmed to win and therefore, I bet with the handicap option PSG -1.5. But unfortunately, it seems that my choice is not big enough because anyway,  at the 24th minute also the fact that PSG has led with a score of 2-0. If it's like this, then of course there will still be another goals that PSG will make, and maybe the match will end with a score of 3-0 or maybe 4-0 or maybe  bigger, who knows. Because there are still many opportunities that can be converted into goals, because there are still 45 minutes of the second half.

Also about Joao Neves, that the new player PSG brought in this transfer window also managed to make two assists for two goals in the first half of PSG in this match. Obviously, it was a good signing because Joao Neves did not take long to adapt, because Joao Neves was able to quickly also make a big contribution to PSG at this time.

In reality, PSG cannot always win Ligue 1 matches when Mbappe is with them. Mbappe is only one of the important players in PSG's history so far and he cannot always help PSG to win, so PSG also loses while Mbappe is there. Now PSG is without Mbappe, things like that are no different, but PSG just lost their most productive striker. PSG can lose against teams that are considered weak or strong, that is the reality.

Mbappe contributes a lot to the number of goals PSG scores each season, so this season PSG's goal statistics will likely decline. If Asensio and several other strikers such as Dembele or Muani can contribute, then the number of goals will probably not be the same. I'm sure that PSG will secure the 3 points today, but they could lose next time.

Many people think that PSG can do even without Mbappe and I have said before that no matter what The absence of Mbappe is going to affect the team even if it is little, Many people are saying that Mbappe's absence is nothing for PSG because PSG wins their first game without Mbappe, I can even see the way some people are criticism Mbappe when Real Madrid play against Mallorca and end draw, let be honest with ourselves PSG is going to find it difficult to defeat some team's this season, some teams are happy that Mbappe leaves PSG so that they can be able to do what they like.

PSG is playing against Montpellier and we know how strong the team is, PSG needs to put more effort into the match because they can end up drawing or being defeated, Montpellier is not that strong but I think they will be strong against PSG, PSG still has some good player's but this season is going to be different for them as they are going to face many challenges from different teams.

This is a match in which PSG is the favorite. PSG will play an effective game against Montpellier with their star players in the attacking line. Considering PSG's home advantage, I expect Montpellier to follow a defensive strategy in this match. However, it will be easy for PSG to break through the Montpellier defense thanks to their fast and technical attacking players. In this case, it seems reasonable to expect the match to end in favor of PSG and at least 3 goals. My prediction is that PSG will win the match and score 3 or more goals. Although Montpellier are unlikely to score, they can create counter attack opportunities against the PSG defense. Therefore, the match is likely to be a high scoring affair.

PSG after the departure of their star Mbappe, PSG has managed to start a very good step in their efforts to be able to defend their title. because in the first week PSG managed to win with a big score of 4-1 away to Le Havre. This proves that PSG without Mbappe does not have much influence in terms of scoring goals because Enrique can utilize the players he currently has. This is further evidence that Enrique is a very experienced coach even though Mbappe left but did not make it difficult for his team to win.

Likewise later when competing against Montpellier, I think PSG will win easily and I even predict PSG will win with a landslide victory. Moreover, this is their first match playing at the Parc des Princes this season, of course PSG does not want to make the slightest mistake, besides Enrique also wants to prove that he can make the PSG squad stronger even without Mbappe. What I want to say is that PSG this season in League 1 will still dominate, because so far I have not seen PSG's competitors who are equal to PSG.

We know very well that the two teams that will compete have a fairly obvious gap, whether it's the depth of each team or the changes made by the club in the summer transfer window. PSG is quite active in recruiting several expensive players, while Montpellier has not made many improvements. moreover, they will certainly have difficulty bringing in players because the average transfer value is high. well, talking about the PSG vs Montpellier match, on paper the home team has a fairly high probability of winning the match. referring to the system that will be implemented by Enrique, based on predictions he will use a 4-4-3 pattern. Dembele and Barcola on the wings, Kolo Muani as a center forward. besides, it seems that Joao Neves will play as the main starter. talking about betting opportunities, the odds available are very obvious. it's natural, PSG is an elite team in this competition, while Montpellier is a team at the bottom of Lique 1. for me personally, there are no good options to bet on this match. if you choose PSG, the odds are too low and not ideal as a single bet. for the handicap option is also not so profitable, as well as Under/Over, I'm not sure if the away team is able to score a goal. well, let's just wait for the results of this match. that we all agree that PSG will get three points at their home ground, Parc des Princes.

Certainly, PSG is going to sweep Montpellier. Mbappe's out; who gives a damn? Right now they are firing on all cylinders. Henrique has them playing wisely, rotating the team, keeping everyone fresh. Back in the starting XI is Marquinhos? That's a claim. Montpelliers? They constitute a mess. Not offending, but right now PSG is not on their level. PSG has the audience, momentum, everything while playing at home. They are going to rule, not only win. Montpellier has to have a miracle. To even slow PSG down, they really have to pull something from their hat. There will be no draw. Too strong and too hungry is PSG. That one will be a blowout

If we reflect on the head to head of the two teams so far, we cannot deny that Montpellier will be an easy opponent to face even though currently PSG no longer has Mbappe in their squad, PSG in the first match in ligue 1 managed to win quite a landslide victory over le havre, while Montpellier actually got a bad result in their first match after being held to a draw by Strasbourg in the match, the two teams currently have a very big difference in player quality so like all of you here, I'm also not sure if Montpellier will be able to make it difficult let alone beat PSG  in the match because it is unlikely to happen, at the moment maybe Luis Enrique is a little bit of a problem in their attacking line after Ramos is injured, but I think facing a team like Montpellier of course he will have other player options who will be plotted as the main attacker in the match.

Montpellier is not a strong opponent. Even if PSG do not have Mbappe in their squad this season, PSG team is still strong this season. In the first match itself we saw the organized gameplay of the PSG players. Luis Enrique has been able to stabilize this team. The overall performance of PSG's players is stable. PSG won the first match against Le Hevre by a big margin of 4-1. However, PSG scored three goals after 84 minutes. Even then we saw the dominance of PSG players throughout the match.

PSG's past record against Montpellier is very good. PSG have won their last 6 matches against Montpellier. Montpellier will definitely want to continue this winning streak. It is also PSG's home match. So there is no doubt that the players will also be more confident in the match. And the match will be played after just 1 hour. I am looking forward to watching the match live.

Luis Enrique does know how to win game, and the absence of Mbappe is not a big concern for them anymore. PSG started the season well, and now are looking very sharp. A lot of players came to the pre-season camp late, hence a lot of them were not rested or fully sharp, but right now all of them are match fit and ready to pounce.

Montpellier has always been a pretty decent team in the Ligue 1, but them facing PSG is a difficult task, and they are definitely not the favorites at Parc De Prince. It will be a tough game for them, and PSG may get the win on the day. I expect more goals from PSG now, as they have more sharpness into the team and some solid attacks should return many goals.

From the last 5 meetings of these two teams, Paris Saint Germain always won with a landslide score, they were always able to create more than 2 goals when facing Montpellier, so that is a very good capital for Paris Saint Germain to extend their winning record when facing Montpellier in Ligue 1.
In terms of player composition, we cannot compare them, because it is very clear that Paris Saint Germain has a better player composition than their opponents this week. I would not expect much from Montpellier because of that difference, for me a draw is something that is very enough for Montpellier when facing Paris Saint Germain.
