Marseille vs Monaco seems to be worthy of watching next week. Marseille are obviously the favourite team to win the match @2.12.
I remember their last match and Marseille were having a really bad time in the league. There was a significant drop in their form and they needed a push. Defeating Lyon and Monaco both was very helpful for them to stand up and fight harder again. And here we are. Marseille are the most in-form team in the league on the recent weeks. Monaco's job can be quite difficult here despite their having a decent form as well. Marseille have the strength to beat them once again.

People are always focusing to bet into the popular team like PSG. I just see that how bad PSG against lens and i have been getting decent money by picking rennes against PSG. PSG is still in the unstable condition at this moment. It may easily win against small team but PSG is very difficult to win against a team that was placed under it. I do feel how he was losing his money caused by picking the wrong team but i guess if it's not only him who has been losing money caused by picked PSG at that moment against rennes. There were many people who lost money too.
He shall not feel disappointed now with his decision in the past.
I am not entirely sure why they are not playing the way we know they could. PSG is a team that could destroy and dominate any team in all of France, and yet we have seen them fail to win so many games now, and I have absolutely no idea why that is. Maybe it is chemistry issue between teammates, and maybe it is something else, but at the end of the day it's not going to be easy for them to recover from here if they keep playing like this.He shall not feel disappointed now with his decision in the past.
This is why I am going to keep on betting PSG to win, because I am fully expecting them to get better and start to win against everyone, I do not think that they will have another Lille season yet again, they should be winning the title.

Munich's conditions today are quite different. they have no Lewandowski. and also their main goalkeeper has been confirmed to have had a long rest due to injury.
PSG will be more favored for sure with the strength of their very frightening front line. if PSG can play with their best squad without any obstacles, this match could be a nightmare for Munich at the start of the Champions League.
Apart from that, the Bayern Munich team is also waiting for several other players who are still recovering from their injuries and currently there are still four defenders from the Bayern Munich team who have not fully recovered. So the PSG team already has a little potential to make his dream come true this season in the Champions League apart from getting another trophy in Ligue1 this season.PSG will be more favored for sure with the strength of their very frightening front line. if PSG can play with their best squad without any obstacles, this match could be a nightmare for Munich at the start of the Champions League.
After Ronaldo now Messi is surely target of the Saudi Soccer League and as amount they are spending most chances he will leave PSG for this new destination because with the arrival of Ronaldo Saudi soccer is having few big advantages and other positive aspects and if they are able to have contract with Messi surely this could be the best part for their new era in soccer, and they also can go for the many big successes in the future.

Week 20, Lens will travel to Troyes headquarters. They have done very well so far including beating Paris Saint Germain. They have a difference of 3 points that they really have to protect by winning the game this week. Troyes is a weak team, so they have to make the most of their chances in the game later. It's very difficult to get close to Paris Saint Germain on points, and they have that now, they have to apply pressure that will make Paris Saint Germain uncomfortable.
On paper it should be Lens can easily get three points from Troyes on matchday 20, head to head also Lens ahead. Of course, to keep the gap with PSG they really need three points in this match. Although, Troyes will be playing at home but their winning record is not good so far. Lens squad at this away match must be to a good play, we don't want to see them only get one point, as match Lens vs Strasbourg.

Troyes was nothing for lens. Even when lens will have played at troyes's home and I think the it will not change the result. Troyes got two losses in a row, unlike lens which was still consistently winning the game. Sometimes draw was unavoidable and that's not a problem as long as lens would still be able to take 1 point from its opponent. Troyes will not become a hard opponent. Lens can defeat troyes easily without any problem. Lens was always winning from the last head to head against troyes.

Lens is playing very well this season. And they are fighting for the title. The strongest team in Ligue 1 is PSG. However, Lens continued to fight for the title. Lens team is only 3 points behind PSG. And I would say as the Lens players continue to perform, they will be able to continue their winning streak. The main strength of Lens' consistent performance is their defense. Due to the good performance of the defenders, the Lens team is consistently performing well. Also Lens players are very confident.

Troyes is not a strong team, even though they will play their game when they host Lens at their own headquarters. especially in their last two matches in Ligue 1, Troyes was defeated by Marseille with a score of 0-2 and was beaten by Lille with a landslide score. this match, is not an easy match for the home team to pick up with full points even though playing at home.
because, as we know, Lens is currently showing a very positive trend, moreover, they have high motivation after overthrowing PSG with a landslide score.
Now, Len is only three points away from the top of the standings. Lens has the ambition to continue to win match after match, moreover the focus of Frack Haise's troops is only on Ligue 1. and that is why, Lens is still able to maintain the consistency of their performance. three points is the result they must bring home, considering the history of the H2H they have, Lens has always dominated wins from 3 meetings in Ligue 1. but, maybe the situation is different than what we predicted. because in football, anything can happen.

The Marseille - Rennes game in the French Cup has started already.
It is going on balanced for now but I'm expecting Marseille to beat Rennes in this. Each one of these teams is performing nicely in the league. However Marseille have a form that is even better than PSG these days. They can make use of this here in this game as well. Both sides care about the cup quite much as it seems when we check the lineups. This game might end after extra time at least maybe but still I think Marseille will win. Their advantage of playing home should also help.
Guendouzi's goal in the second half, precisely in the 59th minute, was the only goal scored in this match. I think these two teams are good at home, I mean in the last few matches, they always win when they play at their own cage.It is going on balanced for now but I'm expecting Marseille to beat Rennes in this.

1 goal that Marseille should be grateful for, because the one goal they scored is a goal that will benefit them in the next match.

What is the exact reason PSG accepted this friendly? I am sure there was some money involved that part is obvious but they are not the type of team that actually needs the money, they are pretty rich anyway. I also checked the owners, and PSG seems to have owners from Qatar whereas Al-Nassr is a Saudi team, so it is not that neither.
Money is their main goal, they want to expand their football to the Middle East, but what makes me pitied is PSG's loss versus Rennes which has made me some money loss. we certainly suspect PSG don't play seriously on friendly match, because the match have sponsor to make the game is interesting to watch. So, it just tires them out because have Coupe de France versus Pays de Cassel on the next 5 days.I'm sorry you lost money because of a game like this. Nobody would think PSG would lose points to teams like this. And that's why we saw a result in the previous match that surprised many, the team is not playing as well in their last match and now they have two losses, while they were expecting the League to finish undefeated. I think in the next match they will not leave it to chance and they will play much better. They need to play at normal level to win the France Cup, they need to be a little more serious in the match
He shall not feel disappointed now with his decision in the past.

Well, a lot has already been said about Bayern, in fact I saw that they were looking for a new goalkeeper, since Neuer was injured and part of it announced his retirement from football, so I think they are considering a goalkeeper with the style of Bayern. Dibu Martinez, and it is a consequence of the number of all the injuries that have been present, as for Ligue 1 things are getting very good, there are already many rumors that Messi is thinking of going to a Saudi team that They are offering him a monumental amount of money, what if Messi leaves Psg? how would they stay? Will they survive without their best player?

This is another positive note for Marseille because with this they have now won 6 in a row in all competitions and this is definitely a good morale kick for them to navigate the season after a not-so-good start.
The match went quite well, even though most of the balls only played in the midfield, this was still a treat worth watching.
It was a really important win for Marseille as they have eliminated one of the toughest teams in the tournament.
Marseille were very dominant in the first half but couldn't score any goal. Rennes started to balance the game in the second half. They even captured a huge ball possession percentage as well but this still didn't prevent Marseille from scoring a goal finally. Considering the whole game I think Marseille deserved the win. It just seemed hard for them to get a very comfortable game and that was what happened actually.
Well, I can't deny that now Marseille is given a lot to talk about, for their part I think they have a lot of quality, they can do very good things, we still know that the toughest of these teams is and continues to be PSG, but how will they face these now? results? According to how I see it, if Marseille had exploited all this great potential that they have, it is likely that they would have been in a very privileged position, but as in everything, it is never too late, now with this result they are in a better position, and they are showing themselves as one of the strongest teams in Ligue 1.
Big issues here:
Marseille beats Rennes 1-0 to reach last 16 in French Cup

PARIS (AP) — Midfielder Mattéo Guendouzi’s second-half goal was enough for Marseille to beat Rennes 1-0 in the French Cup on Friday and advance to the round of 16.
Marseille won the last of its 10 French Cup trophies in 1989 and winning it again is a top priority for determined coach Igor Tudor, whose organization of the team has led to eight straight wins in all competitions.

Regardless of anything, Ronaldo's presence there has had an extraordinary effect, coupled with the arrival of PSG there with a full team and clearly playing this will make them even more elevated. The closeness of the Arab club owners to several big clubs could have brought more things there and it is not impossible that there are other clubs owned by other Middle Eastern Sheikhs such as Manchester City or Newcastle will follow in this footsteps because apart from anything other than promoting their own club as well to raise the league in his country.
PSG could be the first but on the other hand there will be a few more to follow and I'm pretty sure about that.
PSG could be the first but on the other hand there will be a few more to follow and I'm pretty sure about that.
I think that the presence of Ronaldo was the only factor that attracted attention to this game. Otherwise, who would even care about a PSG friendly against an unknown (in Europe) club? It can be said that Ronaldo successfully worked out a significant part of his huge salary by playing in this game
January 20, 2023, 05:29:02 PM
This match was organized solely for entertainment and business. There was nothing to play for, so PSG didn't put in their best. And the match achieved its goal because it was filled with goal feasts and entertainment. Ronaldo is putting his best in Saudi Arabia. I hope the Saudi league would keep on bringing football stars to its teams and organizing such entertaining friendly matches. I just hope that the Saudi league would be able to recover or gain from their investment. Roanldo and Messi really lived up to expectations and the fans enjoyed the game.
No doubt about PSG match against Riyadh XI for entertainment and business only due both team have star player, between Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi still give excited impact for fans around the world and I heard ticket sold out although have highest price. Current I checked with PSG Youtube channel loss almost 250K viewer without ten second after Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo change above 70th minutes.I think Lionel Messi have expectation move to Saudi Pro League due not extended contract with PSG because his contract expiry on June 2023, have confirmed about he will discuss about extended contract or not with PSG after FIFA World Cup 2022 but almost one month ended still not reach a personal agreement between PSG and Lionel Messi.
Lionel Messi doesn't have any expectation of moving to the Saudi pro league. Messi will sign a deal when the time comes And if he is leaving the French side, it mustn't be the Saudi pro league.

There is one match in the Coupe de France match today but it is a really big one. Marseille are hosting Rennes tonight and Marseille are highly favoured for the win in this match. These two teams are competing for the Champions League spots in the Ligue 1 on one hand. Marseille are in a much better condition of course with a lasting winning streak. Rennes have lost a couple of matches lately and they would like to make up for it in this cup match surely.
The last time they played against each other resulted in Rennes' victory. This might be Marseille's time. I assume they will care about this cup as much as the league. There isn't a single time they won this cup in the past. While they are having a decent season they should go for this title also.
This game is going to be high tempo game with both teams are at their best Marseille having third spot and Rennes having fifth and their last win against PSG give them good confidence and Marseille is having no lost in their last five games which is the amazing time for them as now things are looking balances with two loses for the PSG after the break cut the points gape second spotted Lens having three points gapes and Marseille which is currently at the third spot having five points gapes this is surely good time for all top teams to give their best and have chance against PSG which is currently under pressure for their next game against Bayern Munich which is going to play in February these tough challenges can bring some good interest in Ligue 1 title race for this season which is mostly ended with one-sided win by PSG with their quality strength.

I really got lost at the same scenario too yunno; when the superstars that had my interest got substituted...
I'm sure that the Saudis have made alot of cash from that particular friendly match... I don't Have a doubt that it would have happened if Ronaldo wasn't at nassr...cus it hasn't before,if at all -- for a long while now. I saw the transformation in the game when Ronaldo got hold of the ball as an equalizer, just few minutes after Messi scored the first goal of the game. The performances were unique from both sides but without Ronaldo in nassr, maybe they'd just go away with 1 or 2 goal to the 5 goals scored by PSG.
It was an entertaining bout as long as the two superstars were on the court and immersed in the match. Like official matches, both teams have really shown good performance, but of course they have to avoid more contact with players to avoid injury. I was as lost as you when Messi, Ronaldo, Neymar and Mbappe were sent off and replaced by other players.I'm sure that the Saudis have made alot of cash from that particular friendly match...

Just curious about how Ronaldo's face looks today after clashing with K. Navas.
