Enrique rotated a number of his players when facing Reims, this was done to give key players enough rest after working extra in the match against Girona. However, beyond predictions, Reims was able to trouble PSG, and almost made the defending Ligue 1 champions suffer their first defeat this season. Overall, PSG did dominate the match, but their performance was not very promising. Starting the match without Dembele, PSG front line could not appear sharp, luckily Dembele was able to score a goal to make the match end in a draw.

On the other hand, Monaco has currently managed to take over the top of the standings temporarily, thanks to a 3-1 victory over Le Havre, PSG had to be willing to drop to the runner-up position with the same number of points. As for the draw obtained by PSG, there is actually no need to worry too much, in time they can be sure to reclaim the top position in the standings. We know, the season is still very long, Monaco will run out of energy on the way, and PSG can return to the top. That is a simple description of the competition for the trophy in Ligue 1 every season, Enrique has a fairly high chance of retaining the trophy.

Finally PSG lost points, and I know that this is going to be hard for them since a lot of people will put pressure on them since Mbappe left. However, I think it's fine to have these games here and there, they are still the leading candidates to win the league and I do not think that they are going to lose anytime soon neither.

We should be seeing them do fine, and I think we are going to see PSG end up being the title winners again. Having one tie doesn't negate all the great games they had so far, they had great games and I think it should be clear that the yare going to end up with good results eventually again. We have seen them dominate so many games, this one tie doesn't mean that it's a good situation without a doubt.

Talking about the match between Paris Saint-Germain and Reims, the result of this match was certainly not very satisfying for SG Ultras. Even so, PSG was able to avoid defeat after previously conceding a quick goal in the 9th minute. In this match, Luis Enrique also preferred to rest some of his core players, that's why Enrique made a rotation in yesterday's match. The impact of the close schedule, especially after playing against Girona in the UCL. Enrique tried to give playing minutes to their young striker, Desire Doue, while Kolo Muani played in Dembele's position, Barcola remained in his position. I'm sure Enrique tried to take advantage of the situation while giving opportunities to the reserve players. But unfortunately, they had difficulty breaking through Reims' goal. Luckily, after Dembele entered, three minutes later he was able to save his team from defeat and at the same time the only goal that PSG created in the match. On the other hand, today Marseille will visit Lyon's home. Although the two teams have a gap based on ranking, the odds presented do not have a significant difference. So, it looks like this match will be quite tough. However, if Marseille can get full points, then the points are the same as PSG. Well, let's wait for the results of this match.

The match was very interest and closely contested as both teams scored 1 1 goal to level the match.  And this did not decide the victory between the two teams.  And if they had scored in the first 9 minutes, those who had written hope on them were sure that they would score more goals, but the second goal did not come until the end of the match and it was Nakamura who scored the goal.  Who later could not see his speed and hard work, if he had scored the second goal in the same form as before, he would have won the match.  And the goal score for PSG was Dembelé.  There would have been a tie in the match and your hope also came true, but I had the hope that one of the two teams would win, but it did not happen.  No, it should be expected, of course the game should not be at the last minute.  And if you have seen the match, the PSG player equalized the match by score in the 68th minute.

Yes, we should not be disappointed with this draw considering PSG's tight schedule and fatigue is certainly a strong reason, this is where Luis Enrique's ability to keep his squad solid and rotate players is proven but still in good strength, and Reims is also not an easy opponent to beat, this result I think is fair enough.

Marseille remains the favorite in today's match against Lyon, acting as the away team, De Zerbi's squad will definitely target 3 points and take advantage of Lyon's performance which is still unstable this season,
my prediction is 2-1 for Marseille's victory at the Groupama stadium today.

Maybe by showing this good performance against Saint-Étienne, Nive wanted to show they can be a good competitor for teams like PSG in the French leagues because even if we consider Saint-Étienne a weak team in this league with low-quality players and a bad coach, still beating a team with an 8-0 result is not something simple for any team no matter if we are talking about Nice or another team.
The interesting fact about Nice in this match was bout the first half of this game. In the first half and during 40 minutes, they scored 6 goals against Saint-Étienne which is a lot and that's a new record in the French League for Nice.
Also, Saint-Étienne didn't lose any game with this bad result during the last 73 years.

PSG just tested a busy schedule and they beginning to lose point, they better fix up and show that they're a strong club and can play multiple tournaments without losing points in the league. The game against Reims was a difficult one to win as Nakamura scored very early into the game and they went back to defend and made PSG work so hard to get their goal. PSG had all the possession but they couldn't use it for anything as Reims made sure that PSG possession didn't affect their gameplan. After this game week, PSG are still going to be top of the table even though Monaco win their game that's currently ongoing. The game just started and it's goal less but Monaco will want to win this game to close.the gap.

Because Lyon may not be as strong as when they last met, Marseille has a good chance of winning. In their last meeting, Marseille failed to win at Lyon's home ground.
In terms of strength and readiness this season, Marseille is better, we can see the results of the first 4 matches this season. but the statistics of both seem quite balanced. this could be Lyon's momentum for revival, but it could also add to the record of bad results this season.


Betting on both teams to score might not be that good with Odds of 1.56. or Lyon to score the first goal with Odds 2.10.

In the Champions League every mistake will always have a very bad effect on any team and that was certainly felt by Barcelona when they faced Monaco. So I consider it more as luck for Monaco even though the Monaco team also has the strength to put up a fight against Barcelona, ​​but if only there were no Barcelona players who received a red card in the match, the result would clearly be very different. And the next match for Monaco is against Dinamo Zagreb, a team that was slaughtered by Munich with a fairly large score in the UCL this season.

PSG played only 3 days after the Girona game. It was a really tough one for them indeed. In such a busy schedule I'm not surprised to see them dropping two points against Reims.

They still played better than their opponent of course. If only they scored first then I think they wouldn't lose. That early goal made things more difficult. Now there is a good opportunity for Marseille to take.    Today we are going to find out in the Lyon - Marseille game. Even though Lyon started horrible, the odds are like 2.90 to 2.34. I think 2.34 odds are great for taking the risk. Marseille are much stronger than them in every way now.

After a tough match with Girona, PSG is losing points in Ligue 1, these are probably the first games since the beginning of the season when PSG found it difficult to win, or even lose points in a match. But Marseille will play away against Lyon today, and although Lyon looks pretty weak, I think this match will not be easy for Marseille. Unless Lyon's poor defense makes quick mistakes, in which case Marseille will be able to win and equal PSG in points. By the way, Monaco also has a very good chance of winning the home match against Le Havre, so with this draw, PSG can give their opponents additional motivation to win these matches.

The first match of the season was defeated by Reims. But in every match after that we got to see good performances from Reims players. This team has been able to maintain the consistency of good performance. Reims also shared points against PSG. Although we expected PSG to win the match, but PSG drew the match 1-1.

To be honest, I could not be satisfied with PSG's performance in this match. PSG's performance in this match was slow. PSG players try to attack too much. Several players from PSG's squad were absent due to injuries. But I don't know why Luis Enrique didn't put Dembele in the starting XI. Dembele is the most important player in Madrid's attack. So Luis Enrique needed to keep Dembele in the starting XI. Luis Enrique is probably still experimenting with his squad.

I was very disappointed in PSG on the match because they were playing like those low level clubs that has been having difficult time of the season, actually for the sake of there reputation this is kind of match they should have been recording more than 5 goals but instead they were too comfortable and reluctant, imagine how as pig as PSG was even fighting to only obtained a draw with Reims, however Nakamura really helped Reims a lot on the match because aside from his goal he has been enforcing the front line of Reims while Dembélé on the other hand was just the PSG rescue if not it would have been very shameful for them, though we no that in football sometimes most things are possible but with how strong and reputable PSG is on there local league it will be disgraceful for any small club to win them, this is why I don't have a single hope for them on the champions League unless they prove otherwise.

I know that this game is going to be tough because Reims is a team that looks very strong time, I don't even bet on the game because I know that the game will be somehow difficult and even if PSG wins the game it will be a lucky, from the beginning of the match the way PSG comes out to play you will know that PSG will not win the match because they play badly in the game, Reims score goal in 9 minutes of the game and they start playing a good defensive game to not allow PSG to equalize but at the second half of the match PSG find a way to score a goal and end the game draw.

PSG needs to put more effort because yesterday showed that they are still not ready to play against some teams because many teams are very strong and can do more than what Reims does, Dembele is the player that saved PSG from losing to Reims yesterday and if we look at Dembele performance in PSG this season he has been amazing and helping the team, Dembele is playing better than when he is in Barcelona, but why did he keep having injury when he is playing for Barcelona?

It's really embarrassing seeing PSG locking heads with underdog teams. This is the second time in a row they're dropping points this season while the league is just starting. I think it's become obvious that they need to have signed a good striker during the transfer window. They couldn't win that game simply because they lacked real fixation. Reims was playing with a very low block but the poor PSG couldn't penetrate to do the right thing.

By the way, you can not use opponent defense as an excuse for not winning the game you're supposed to win. You don't bench your best players and expect to win the game especially when you know the opponent you're playing always poses difficulties for you. Every gambler would have betting on their favour to win thou. I think it's time to switch back to goals market and abandon 1x2 until teams get back on track.

Don't be surprised by the draw because the meeting between Reims and PSG is still a mystery that is difficult to solve because the draw continues to occur. As we can see that in terms of H2H the chance of a draw is very large but if judged from the quality of the squad, PSG should have a greater chance of winning.
This is like Reims who already know the strategies and tactics that PSG often uses so that Reims can always hold a draw when competing against PSG.
Many were disappointed with the match because bettors bet on PSG victory and I even think that PSG was able to score more than 2.5.

This draw gives Marseille an opportunity who will face Lyon today. And if Marseille manages to get 3 points from the match, PSG position will definitely be shifted.

I'm surprised with how the Reims manage to battle with PSG without any form of relenting after leading at halftime, some teams would have gone weak after much pressure and with the equalizer, they (Reims) did well to even end the game in a draw but coming to PSG, they had a very busy week in the champions league so I expected them to go slow in this game, is never easy to play a champions league game that you must win and still come on to play a team that have much time to rest like a week before playing a league game, it was an interesting game, if the home team had enough good players I believe they would have won PSG because they (PSG) are operating on fatigue.
The injuries PSG are experiencing can affect the team only if they don't have replacing legs to fill in those open spaces, but the manager has a way to make it work for the team because with this form they are now is not healthy to drop because the campaign is still young to start losing games.

PSG played badly today against Reims which clearly showed that PSG is much stronger team than Reims in any case, it was an away game for PSG but 1 - 1 draw was very disappointing result.
Almost 80% of the percentage of superiority and dominance of the game was owned by PSG but they looked less competitive in this match, the attack line was not so aggressive and the defense looked quite weak shown by PSG.
Initially I thought PSG could win this match and maintain their victory, I made them the favorite but in reality bad results happened.

You're supposed to understand how this works already by now... I observed it much earlier than smaller teams always have an advantage over the bigger ones -- especially in their major competitions like the league 1 . I think they were too lucky to equalize and end in a draw game as some teams would substitute strikers and attacking midfielders for defenders, just to secure the goal.

On a normal occasion, meins isn't a match for PSG in their prime.... They've also lost a handful of big game changers ... Likes of messi and mbappe. Bradley barcola and dembele don't have enough potentials to keep the forward position IMO.

This turned out the first draw PSG had in the ligue 1 this season, as they have not recorded anything as such since this season in the ligue 1 but then I'm hoping they are able to maintain this pase and make sure to stay at the top of the table, but about their performance today I wasn't impressed honestly, their opponent reims isn't such a really tough one, I mean they have literally won tougher teams already, so I expected a flawless victory only to see that they literally were even loosing at some point before they managed to get an equalizer.
