Lyon v Toulouse, even though Lyon are playing at home but I still really consider that Lyon is still very unstable, because the results of home and away matches are very different where Lyon's away matches are a very bad team. Yes, that's right, maybe this factor will not affect Lyon in this match because Lyon will play at home. But still, with the unstable or unbalanced performance of Lyon so far between home and away matches, then I think there is still no guarantee that Lyon will easily beat Toulouse. But if the paper record still works as it should then of course Lyon will win this match, because the head to head factor and also playing at home still shows a good record, hopefully this trend can still occur in the match against Toulouse.

Olympique Lyon seems to be the clear favorite of today's game. Toulouse is playing very poorly in away matches, while Lyon in their home stadium scored 4 wins, only losing points with PSG. Any result other than the victory of the hosts will be a big surprise for me.

With the poor form, Lyon is in right now, it will be very difficult for them to win against Toulouse. The Toulouse team cannot be called weak. They also won 4-2 against Montpellier in the last match and Toulouse players performed well against Lille.  On the other hand, Lyon is in poor form. They have lost all their last four matches. I don't think Lyon will win easily against Toulouse in this situation. The match will be competitive. And I think the match is more likely to be a draw.

Indeed, in this match Lyon are the favorites because they also have had 4 losing streak, so they are motivated to be able steal full points in matchday 10. You're right Toulouse if playing away shows a very bad performance, even this season they got one win at away, so the result of this match can be easily guessed. Let's hope Lyon doesn't make any mistake.

IMO, there are a lot of possibilities that will happen. it is possible, Messi will continue his contract with PSG, but until now there is no clarity about the continuation of Messi's contract at PSG. some sports news reported, Messi was reluctant to continue his contract with PSG.

on the other hand, the closeness of Messi and Xavi is very closely intertwined. there are many possibilities that Messi will end his career at Camp Nou, but what is certain is that currently Messi still has a contract with PSG, and he and the team will try to realize the Club's dream of becoming champions league champions.
Regardless of how Messi's relationship with Barcelona's players, especially Xavi at this time, actually I would not see this as an opportunity for him to return to Barcelona. Actually, in this case I didn't even think so far because I believe Messi will stay at Barcelona for at least 1 more season because it can be said that he is also one of PSG's valuable assets because apart from this performance it is also profitable in terms of sponsors and other fans.
I can't understand why peoples still talking about this as Messi is going back to Barcelona even Xavi already announces there is no chance for this in near future as Messi is doing good job at PSG, and he is happy to end his career at this club on high note which is surely a good thing for his rest of life as he has done good job for Barcelona and ends his career another good club which give him chance of play and give him good respect when he leaves Barcelona with many controversies were around.

With finances are also not good in Barcelona where many players already have errors in salaries and Barcelona management trying to solve this issue with sell of their shares and subsidiaries and having few long term contracts which is another headache for them in near future.

Lyon are now 12 points behind PSG as the leader of the standings and 9 from Lens who are in fourth position. Lyon must win from Tuolouse to cut the distance from Lens as well as to maintain the chance to move up to a better ranking.
Lyon must end a 4-match losing streak in Ligue 1, they must get full points at home especially Tuolouse is also not in its best form.
Lyon will definitely take advantage of the match against Tuolouse to get full points because for Lyon it is a very good opportunity to close the points gap with PSG who have collected 25 points at the moment and are in first place in the standings. And it's true what you said where Lyon should try to end the defeat and replace it with more wins in each game going forward, so that Lyon can get a very good position in the Ligue 1 standings.

Lyon is in poor form I don't think they can defeat Toulouse who are also struggling like them in the league. Lyon has lost 4 matches in the league since the new season likewise Toulouse and they are 2 points ahead of Toulouse and going with their history Lyon has a good record against them but it's still doesn't guarantee an advantage to Lyon because their performance so far this season has been below average, I think Lyon shouldn't consider fighting to catch up with PSG who are currently the league leaders, all they need right now is to work on their attack and defense because they easily concede goals and with this, they can't get good results. Lyon is currently 7th in the league so closing the gap between them and PSG means they will win most of their games to be ahead of Marseille, Lorient, Lens, Monaco, and Rennes, without constant winning they can't close the gap.

This is an important game and if they can't win against toulouse at home then i see them going down to the bottom of the standings, they had a great start but then they lost four consecutive games not only that but their performance was really bad i don't see how they can move up the standings which such a poor performance.

Messi's fitness is still very good. He will not decide to retire so soon. He will be associated with football for another 3-4 years. And the most important thing is that he will not decide to retire from the PSG club. There is a possibility that he will come back to Barcelona. And from Barcelona, he will announce his retirement. Or he will announce his retirement from a club in Argentina, where his career began. I think we will see Messi in Barcelona jersey again. Even if it is for a very short time.
I doubt if Messi would be able to play competitive football for another 2 years. Players' performance tends to decrease faster when they are getting old. No doubt he is strong and fit but he might retire in the next one or two years.

Messi is now about 36 years old. He still manages to perform consistently well as a young player. As players age they cannot maintain fitness. But Messi's fitness is still excellent. And he's not dealing with as many injuries. I would say Messi will be able to serve his team well for several more years if he does not face any fitness issues. Messi still needs to be aware of his fitness. And the idea is that Messi will be able to easily maintain his good performance for at least 2 years. He can maintain his fitness till at least 38 years.
Although now messi is 35 years old but he is still able to compete with young players, age in my opinion is not the main factor because if messi is able to maintain his fitness then he will be able to continue playing until he is 40 like Ibrahimovich is doing now, yes maybe Injuries are the most vulnerable for players who are old but of course they can avoid this by playing carefully or even not taking too much risk to hold the ball longer on the field when the game is played.

Lyon Fc n Toulouse last met in 2020 and Lyon FC won that match. And their meeting record says that Lyon FC dominated the win. It is good capital for Lyon to be able to win this match and extend the winning streak against Toulouse and also to continue to maintain its position in the standings. Lyon Fc did win 4 consecutive defeats, but their opponents were also no better than Lyon FC.

Lorient and Lens are going on really solid in this season. There is only one point between them by being the 3rd and 4th respectively. Lens haven't even lost any match so far. Actually they were doing well in the previous season also but couldn't make it to any European tournament later on. I wonder how long they will be able to stay at upper positions this time.

Lorient are actually the most surprising team. They have improved themselves mentally incredibly much. Because they barely stayed in the Ligue 1 last season as they finished the season only a few points above the relegation area. If they even finish in top 10 this time it'd still be a big achievement for them.
There is no doubt these both teams are doing amazing job in this season and after nine rounds staying at top is surely best from them with teams like Lyon and Lille both in middle of the league table and Nice and Strasbourg are at the bottom which is surely a matter of concern and good change in league table but still many changes can happen because after poor start Monaco is doing good job which is surely another positive development in French League, and we can expect good fight from Lyon which is currently on four defeats streaks.

Now in tenth round mostly top rank teams are going to face easy matches, just Lens is having challenge matches as they are going to visit Lille which is currently trying to have better performance after poor start of this season.

For today match between Lyon vs Toulouse actually i expect Lyon can bounce back through this match because they were already losing too many points from their previous matches but seems there was a problem with their forward line lately because from 4 matches Lyon only can able to scoring 2 goals but i wish Lyon manager can solved this issue and their forward players such as Lacazette or Toko Ekambi can playing good in this match and scoring goals again because so far they are top scorer for Lyon and regarding head to head statistics so far Lyon can able to wins 4 times from 5 matches against Toulouse so this should be indicated Lyon can get 3 points from this match

In the last four matches, Lyon have lost to teams that can be said to be better in performance than Lyon.
Of course this result is an important note for Peter Bosz, that his squad still has gaps and shortcomings in their defense and not only in their strikers.
As a result, Lyon must be willing to surrender in the last four matches. in the match later versus Toulouse, it seems they must get three points.
In addition to the advantage of playing at home, Tuolouse is not a strong team and difficult to beat. like it or not, Peter Bosz must prepare his troops to win this fight.

His fitness is outstanding compared to other players. Despite other players being rejected at such an early age, Messi won the Copa América and the Finalissima at 34! His ability is one of the reasons he's playing for PSG with Neymar and Mbappe, but he's the best among them. He has at least two more years to serve his national team and club. Retiring at the top of your game and when the crowd is roaring is better than waiting until you are rejected by everyone.

The age is a factor to him moving to another club, especially Barcelona, I never think it would happen again in the next 1 or 2 year because his physique it's look different from Ronaldo where have perfect fitness. but I thing if he move again to spain, most likely will be coach or assistant not as player as we hope. PSG is still need him at least 1 or 2 more years later because his name still have selling value even his skill has reduced due to age factor

Barcelona have huge financial problems (if I'm not mistaken they still have a debt to Messi even now) so there is no chance that Messi will return to Barcelona. In my opinion, Messi can go to MLS and earn a lot of money there in a season or two, and in his position it will be the best solution, as it was already written above, age makes itself felt and it will soon become more and more obvious that he does not correspond to the level of a top club.
They are not "that" much in financial trouble anymore, plus what people are talking about is Messi getting a huge pay cut just to retire there, all of which could result with something much bigger. I am not saying that will happen, but if he comes in next year taking like 10-20 million euros instead of what he usually does, then I am sure that they could find that money somewhere.

Look at what they have done this year, they have spend a ton of money, more than almost any team in the world, and they could just replicate a small version of that to get Messi, which would make sense since they would financially recoup that back with just jersey sales alone.

You would have said  if Messi and Ronaldo will play for the same club before they retire. This is where the stage would be lively and fans would thrill. If this is to happen it is only psg that can make it happen but I don't think they are interested in that.  Their major gaol is the champions league.
Yes there will be a lot of response when they (Messi and Ronaldo) can play together before they retire. We already know that these two players are always rivals, that's when they meet, the competition for who is the best and much more. When they get to play together it will be something special because they will be working together on a game that has never been seen before. I'm sure if any team is interested in getting them to play with them they won't refuse.
