While Strasbourg are trying to defend their current position, Nice are fighting for winning their position back too. They have equal points currently. And the Lens - Nice match is going to be important too. Lens are a really tough opponent to beat for Nice in this away match. And Nice are not even the favourite to win this match. Their job is going to be very difficult maybe but they should aim to win this anyway. Maybe Strasbourg will lose points and then they can take advantage of it.

Strasbourg vs Lyon is going to be a very competitive game I believe. Strasbourg are one of the surprising teams of this season obviously. They have had a great run so far and captured the fourth position in the league standings finally after defeating Lens the last time. However, Lyon are not too worse than them now. There is only a gap of six points between them. And bookmakers must be thinking the same too because the winning odds of these teams are very close to each other. But I think that Strasbourg won't be losing the game.
No doubt Strasbourg is having amazing success run in this season with their current form most chances they will keep this momentum against unpredictable Lyon which is currently at 9th with fewer chances of reaching into last six but today their performance against West Ham was some good with score of 1 - 1, and now they have few chances to reach into last four of UEFA Europa Cup which is best for them with having very poor run in this French League throughout in this season.

Most chances Strasbourg can win this match because they are in good form with Lyon have to play more matches in next few days which can have some impact on their performance is also very helpful for home team.

Even if seen in the match, the club owner was quite emotional to see this match.
Poche being sacked can happen and the chances of it happening are very high after the end of the season.
Zidane is currently still being rumored with them and this will be blowing even more it seems especially with this season's game nearing its end.
The good news is I saw some tweets on Twitter and some articles there that said Mbappe was ready to extend his contract at PSG. If this comes true then it will be very good for them

I don’t know for some reason it feels that Poch is a hyped up coach that ultimately fails to deliver be it the champions league final loss, or properly utilising this experienced squad hence if he’s asked to leave it’ll be justified unless the player’s request he be given more time.

Furthermore Zidane also cannot convert them into champions league winners in his first season if he takes charge, and I hope the management will realise that it’ll take at least 2 - 3 seasons for the new coach to challenge for the champions league trophy.
even so I think it will be very difficult for Poche to stay because I don't feel the club officials are that kind to let him stay.
There are several possibilities that will happen, it's true that the coach needs adaptation but at least by giving a chance to a new coach who is experienced enough in UCL I think this will improve them a bit more.
Poche is a pretty good coach but his portion is not fit to lead PSG

Therefore, it is very likely that Pochettino will be sacked as PSG's main coach at the end of this season, even though PSG managed to win
the Ligue 1 trophy. Because as everyone knows PSG's main target is to win the Champions League trophy this season, and they should be
knocked out dramatically by Real Madrid. This of course made the PSG management very disappointed, which this season has spent a lot of
money to strengthen the PSG squad in order to win the Champions League trophy. So far, PSG's best achievement in the Champions League
competition has only been runner-up in 2020.

But PSG management must realize, they are not enough just to buy a lot of star players to make PSG win the Champions League trophy.
However, they have to find a coach who can make the star players in the PSG squad work well together, and not playing selfishly by relying
too much on individual abilities. And it is very clear that Pochettino has indeed failed to get the star players at PSG to work well together.
So indeed for next season PSG must find a replacement coach for Pochettino who can manage star players well, and I think Zidane's figure is
the most appropriate.

Marseille is still 12 points behind PSG. And both teams will play 8 more matches this season. It is foolish to think that PSG will lose 4 out of 8 matches. They are the strongest team in Ligue 1. Since they have been eliminated from the Champions League, I think PSG will win all the next matches in Ligue 1. The points gap between PSG and Marseille will widen further. Marseille will not be able to reduce the gap of points. They will even lose points against PSG.
After eliminating from UEFA Champion League PSG just have chance with Ligue 1 only as possibility getting tittle in this season, actually they won't missing Ligue 1 trophy like happening last season where Lille success get PSG 1st standing at the least of league. I think PSG behind 12 point from Marseille want to lock trophy early without have waiting until week 38. Absolutely with 12 point different from Marseille, I think PSG need 4 match later to win and lock tittle and become the champion.

I don't think with Marseille could get gap points with PSG right now although still have match between PSG vs Marseille but not easy with PSG loss their point actually match held on Parc des Princes stadium. I think match result winning by PSG and make points lead more than 15 points with 7 match left. I know how crucial match between PSG vs Marseille but looks different with PSG play as home and give opportunity keep getting 3 points and lock domestic league as soon possible. Before crucial match between PSG VS Marseille both team have another match and PSG getting easy against and will get 3 points.

Marseille will not be able to reduce the gap of points. They will even lose points against PSG.

PSG is in the form now, and so it is not possible for Marseille to reduce the points gap now. We all know the PSG team is very strong in Ligue 1. While Marseille has been able to win all of their upcoming matches, I don't think they can narrow the points gap. Because PSG is in full strength now. None of their key players are injured. And so if Neimar-Mbappe-Messi is in the squad and play well, they will be able to win easily against any team.

I think not possibility for Marseille can stop PSG as the winner on Ligue 1 although next two week or 32 week have match between PSG vs Marseille but not left 12 points will give hard. But Marseille could make PSG have waiting long time for getting Ligue 1 trophy if success stop points achievement by PSG on next two weeks match. I hope have magician performance from Marseille could defeated PSG although play as away and will give opportunity for Marseille get little close with trophy, but still depending with another team success or not defeated PSG on next left match.
Ligue 1 is like La Liga as second teams have big difference against the first teams. All leagues are coming to endings and with current big difference between first and second team in each league, the first one will highly to win title. Between two teams, Real Madrid and PSG, if there is a team will lose league title, it would be Real Madrid because in La Liga, Real Madrid have more risk to lose points than PSG in Ligue 1.

Marseille on their side, don't actually perform too well and they are not strong enough to beat all opponents in Ligue 1. From now till the league ending, if they lose any point, they will be fallen further to the title dream. Meanwhile, PSG might not lose any point if they play with their 100% focus and energy.

I do not think that it would matter all that much. I mean la liga has real madrid, barcelona and time to time atm like last year for example. Whereas ligue 1 doesn't have that, sure lille won but they suck this year and they are not consistently good, aside from PSG there is no team that dominates the league, they are the only ones. That should be good enough reason to not compare the two together.

If that is the case, City dominates premier league with liverpool, bayern dominates germany even more than psg dominates ligue 1 and so forth, juventus did that to serie a for so many years too. It doesn't make the leagues similar because other teams are a bit different.

It is difficult for Marseille to catch up with PSG, Ligue 1 has entered week 30. PSG has collected 68 points, while Marseille, who is in a second place, has only collected 56 points. The difference of 12 points from the remaining 8 matches is very unlikely to be caught by Marseille, PSG only needed 4 wins, 1 draw and 3 defeats to ensure themselves to become Ligue 1 champions. I think PSG will party early for their success in getting a trophy this season.
It's not only difficult for me, it's impossible because now after end of thirty rounds PSG needs only 3 more wins, and they will be champions of French League for this season and Marseille is unpredictable, and now they need to do some hard work for staying at second spot Rennes is doing very impressive job in last few matches they are at top in form if they keep playing like this in next few matches then we can expect some entertaining end of this season between these two teams for second spot.

Now, Nice is also losing their form which can help Lille and Monaco for having some better spot with this European connection is also possible for them Strasbourg is also now doing some lazy job after very good form in middle of season which give them fourth spot, hopefully they will keep this as well for next few matches as well.

Exactly these things happened today. Marseille were successful about destroying their opponent, St Etienne by 4-2 in an away game. And they are three points away from Rennes in the standings at the moment. And Strasbourg made use of this huge opportunity very well too. They were able to defeat Lens in a tough game by 1-0 and they now have the fourth position officially. Maybe they have equal points with Nice still but they are better than Nice when it comes to the goal average. I will be wondering how long they will keep it that way as of today.
With today win now most chances Marseille is going to stay at second spot behind PSG and no team can give them tough challenge for this spot but for remaining spots we will have some very exciting matches because now Rennes is going to face Reims which is not good side with this most chances they will also keep this place but Strasbourg and Nice are going to face some tough teams which can bring some changes in league table in next few weeks because now all teams are looking for better ranks even they have unpredictable results.

Strasbourg vs Lyon and Lens vs Nice are the most exciting matches in next week for big changes as Monaco and Lille both trying their best for higher ranks at the end of season.

I didn't check the next week schedule so thank you for informing me about it. Those games are going to be really crucial for sure. Bookmakers are thinking that Lens are going to be the favourite side to reach a victory. And it is really going to be hell of a game for Nice. They have already been in a poor form on the recent weeks. And I think that this game could end in a draw. And as for the other game you mentioned, there is no favourite for that. Lyon defeated Strasbourg by 3-1 in a home game before. But this time, my favourite side is Strasbourg. I don't expect them to lose.

No and I don't think I agree with you. Real Madrid and PSG are both safe for the title this season in the league as they have a large points gap with their rivals. PSG will also not lose their title this season, it has to be true for now.

For PSG, in the last game I think the three strikers were at their best especially Mbappe and Neymar and Messi. They scored quite a number of goals and will probably continue in the next game. After failing in the Champions League, PSG only focused on the league.

I really feel that PSG have invested a lot and have not received any type of palpable benefit, that is, for what they have put money they can only ensure their local championship, this is a good thing but not enough, it is not something complete to justify the spending.

true, this is something that is quite bad for a club like psg even though they managed to get a title there but on the other hand they lost in another more prestigious competition.
Their target until now is the Champions League and indeed this is their main target but until now they have not been able to realize it even though they have spent quite a lot of money.

Of course, there is nothing certain about the Zinedine Zidane transfer for PSG. But I'm sure that he is their prioritized target for the manager position. Pochettino has no chance to stay here from now on I think. He had a big task like winning the Champions League title but he failed very early. Winning the Ligue 1 title won't change anything as it is already easy for the team with any manager. Zinedine Zidane wasn't thinking of any manager job some time ago. But if he changed his mind, then he might likely to accept PSG's offer.

I really feel that PSG have invested a lot and have not received any type of palpable benefit, that is, for what they have put money they can only ensure their local championship, this is a good thing but not enough, it is not something complete to justify the spending.

The fact that Zizu accepts this challenge I think that his requirements are very clear and I think that the most outstanding is that they can hire CR7, in fact, I'm not very sure about this, I've been reading this in some information from groups referring to subject, but if so, go that is putting it not very easy for PSG. The truth is that if I would like to see CR7 and Messi together in the same team, it would be something spectacular, and it would be a magnificent closure for their careers, I would not like to see CR7 in Portugal or in the MLS or Messi, but to close their careers in one of the biggest teams in Europe.
