In only four days, we are going to have a great match between Lyon and PSG. Both teams lost nearly the same amount of points in their last five matches in the league. Both side will of course want to win this and get ahead by three points from the other. It is also a big opportunity for Lyon to get past PSG in the table of course. PSG got a really shocking loss vs Nantes three days ago and they will also want to do their best to make up for that. I'd also like to remind you that Lyon defeated PSG once in this season in a match which Lyon had a more effective performance. This time, I expect goal(s) from both sides and also a draw wouldn't make me surprised.
Oh yes you're right a BTTS should be a good idea because AFAIK it's still not sure if Neymar will play or not. We will know that on saturday afternoon.

Tonight Monaco destroyed AS Saint-Etienne 0-4. What a beating at home! Saint-Etienne didn't lose against Monaco in their 5 past meetings yet.
Monaco is now sure to be qualified for the Europa League!

Lyon getting a tie against Reims destroyed all their plans. Lille and PSG fighting real hard to win the league, I have to be honest and say that I did not expected Lille to be this good, they were 20 points PSG last year and finished the league with 49 points (cut short) but they played 28 games last year as well as this year so far and they have 12 more points compared to last year, PSG has about 8 less points as well so they meet at the middle give or take.

I really think that Lyon being close to PSG plays a big role, it really disturbs PSG a lot if you ask me, and that tie and impending PSG win could be very tough for Lyon this week, they may get further away. In the end 2 opponents is harder to fight than one, and PSG needs both of them to disturb them, if the only opponent is Lille, the moment they lose PSG could get ahead, so Lyon has to recover this with winning every game until PSG loses.

Lyon got an unfortunate draw against Reims and they were even nearly losing the game if it weren't for the Kadewere's goal in the stoppage time. But still they are right behind PSG and it is true that they are threatening PSG really well. But most probably, PSG will beat Nantes and make the point difference between them 3. But it looks like we will see this competition for the championship until the last matches of the league. I really love it as I got bored by PSG's dominance in the last years.
They will most probably beat Nantes you said? Roll Eyes What a shame for the PSG! Beaten by the second-to-last of the league! 1-2 at home  Embarrassed
When Neymar is not here, they are unable to do anything, even against the worst teams of the league. They made me lose money tonight.  Undecided

Yeah, it was very shocking for me too. I don't understand why PSG let Nantes play much better than them after getting ahead 1-0. It is really frustrating to see this when big clubs do this mistake against weaker ones and get the punishment for it. Even though Neymar was injured, it was not that hard for them to win it normally.

PSG 2 - 0 Lille in French Cup after +48 minutes. It is better to see them winning like this in Ligue 1!

Psg players seems they faucuse more in the champoins league
PSG's players are fully focused on the Champions League but they are playing great at Ligue 1. PSG is now second in the table, just 3 points behind Lille. Lille lost 2 points to Monaco. Lilli should play every match very carefully, they will fall behind if they lose a point in a match.
PSG is a lion when it faces Barca and a cat when playing vs a team in the relegation zone Roll Eyes
Lille and Lion are in a good position at this point of the league, dunno how long they will stand against PSG.
Yeah, you are right this way, PSG never wins with a massive goals at league, instead PSG normally win with a score line of 2:0 2:1, that shows how they are a cat towards fellow league club. To me PSG is one of the inconsistent winning team along with laliga side Sevilla who often plays well at international match and become cat with home clubs.
I don't think PSG does good research on matches against smaller teams in Ligue 1. They did not give any importance to these matches. So they have lost against small teams. On the other hand, in the Champions League, the players of PSG try their best to win the match. PSG has a lot of talented and skilled players. They have the ability to win against any strong team.

Hahaha, You are right mate. PSG was playing just awesome againt Barcelona. If they could do such a great performance in Ligue 1, they would undoubtedly be able to win the title. But PSG cannot perform as expected in Ligue 1. I think PSG's main goal is the Champions League. They don't take Ligue 1 very seriously. So they are failing to perform as expected. Defeat against a small team like Nantes, Lorient in League 1 is not desirable for a team like PSG.

I don't agree with the "playing great" part. PSG were really good in the first half and had the control of the match also. I don't know what happened but things changed very much in the second half and Nantes were the side that were playing much better. PSG got only 2 shots in the second half which was terrible as they should have scored at least one more goal and secured the win. I loved Nantes' determination and they made an incredible comeback. Besides, it was a great week for Lille as PSG lost, Lyon got a draw and Lille drew with Monaco which prevented Monaco to get closer to them also.
I think after scoring their goal in the first half of the match, they thought they've already won and they haven't to be offensive and determined to win anymore, but they were wrong and Nantes took its chance. Nonetheless I don't trust them anymore until Neymar comes back, I won't bet on them in the meantime.

I disagree with you, there aren't "playing great at Ligue 1" anymore in my opinion, you can't say that when you're beaten at home 1-2 by the penultimate of the league table. And I don't think it's because they are focusing on the Champions League, I think it's because there are crashing without Neymar. The family of Angel Di Maria has been home jacked during the match yesterday (and also Marquinhos' parents living in the same area as far as I know), some people says it could explain the defeat but I disagree with that, PSG was already playing badly before being informed of the event during the match.

They will most probably beat Nantes you said? Roll Eyes What a shame for the PSG! Beaten by the second-to-last of the league! 1-2 at home  Embarrassed
When Neymar is not here, they are unable to do anything, even against the worst teams of the league. They made me lose money tonight.  Undecided

Many people were shocked by the defeat of PSG, this is really embarrassing for PSG. PSG should be able to beat Nantes easily. Especially since
the beginning of the match PSG dominated the match,  as PSG concentrated too much on attacking after being conceded by Nantes in the 59th minute.
Finally, surprisingly Moses Simon scored the winning goal on 71 minutes. This is a valuable lesson for Pochettino never to underestimate a weak team.
So PSG failed to get close to the points owned by Lille, because they have to lose points to face Nantes.
They dominated the match at the beginning, certainly, but it was a very short domination. They've only been able to score one goal in the first half and Kylian Mbappe hasn't been able to score one goal at least, during all the match, that's really disappointing.

Yes, there is finally a good intrigue in the league, because the constant dominance of PSG has already slowly begun to affect PSG in a negative sense due to the search for decent motivation for the club's leading players. It is funny that in addition to the rumors about the potential transfer of Messi to the Paris club, there is a new rumor about the potential transfer of Ronaldo. A very good option for the club, especially if Messi decides to stay in Barcelona or decides to leave for Manchester City.

I can't imagine how a superb and unstoppable team PSG can be with Messi and Ronaldo both.  Cheesy  The attacking side of the starting lineup could be like this:

                      Ronaldo
Neymar            Messi            Mbappe

But the problem is Neymar and Mbappe are both right-footed and left-wingers (Mbappe is actually seen as CF and can play as RW also). In this situation one of them would have a role like making assists more than scoring goals maybe. But still, it would be the most dangerous team.  Grin

Its easy to say but hard to see...im not a barcelona fan but i cant imagine the team without messe, i think psg players are focusing on the champoins league more than everything else and i think if they contunue this way they will finally give up the trophy but who really expect that really can do such season ?
