It could happen when Marseille consistently wins the rest of the season and on the other hand, PSG has bad luck in several matches which will make Marseille's chances bigger.
I would also probably be happier to see Ligue 1 more competitive. With Marseille and other teams competing with PSG. But you know the situation, even when PSG doesn't have a player like Mbappe in the team, they can still dominate the league.
Yes you are right, even though PSG has recently shown its weakness it did not make them experience bad luck like in the previous two matches against Saint Etienne or especially against Lens which on paper is included in the category of strong teams, I think PSG was not in its best performance at that time but both teams were still unable to beat or at least managed to hold a draw. That is what makes League 1 not as competitive as other leagues because the competing teams are still far from expectations, such as Marseille which is one of the teams expected to provide resistance but still inconsistency is still their problem at this time.
PSG is increasingly comfortable in leading the top of the Ligue 1 standings, the difference in points is now 9, after Marseille was held to a 1-1 draw by Strasbourg. Marseille, which is expected to put pressure on PSG, has not been able to appear consistent. But this season, it seems that Mason Greenwood will lead the list of top scorers in Ligue 1. Since the 2015 season, PSG attackers have continued to win this individual award, this season it seems that there will be a slight change in Ligue 1.

Lille and Nice have ambitions to continue to climb to a better position in the league so both are very motivated to be able to win that match, besides that the composition and quality of the team are equal offer us to see an exciting match to watch.

Both teams tried their best and it was an entertaining game. They played well in that match, I can't said one club played better than the other as they both played well and deserved to win but it's either one club wins or they both draw. Lille won not as they played more than Nice but as they had an advantage which was the home advantage that they had playing in their own home stadium while Nice was visiting. Nice scored first therefore I thought they were going to win but Lille didn't give up in the game and completed their comeback with a win at the 63rd minute. Both Lille goals were scored in the second half of the game.

PSG was lucky to have that win yesterday against Lens, a 1-2 victory, still at the top with 10pt clear until Marseille play their game against Strasbourg which I think won't be an easy one for the second position team. Marseille need this game to reduce the point gap to 7pt at least for now till PSG meet any of the big teams even Marseille for the second leg, that would be another block buster and we know is not going to be easy too. I'd really like Marseille to not only win this game against Strasbourg but also the League title at least let PSG try again next season. It shouldn't be PSG that's always crowned as champions, another team should step up and become Champions but this can only happen if Marseille get a positive results in all their games, starting with this very game against Strasbourg tonight.

Looking at the current points gap, there might not be enough chances for Marseille to do it. We can see it many times in Ligue 1. Other teams like Marseille, Lille, and Monaco can be very good at the beginning of the season. But after a few games, they sometimes have problems with inconsistency. If other teams want to compete with PSG in Ligue 1, I think they have to improve the players in the team first. Otherwise, PSG will stay at the top of the standings.

I get what you mean but as of first I included Lille and Monaco on the driver's seat to compete for the title but I later saw how poor both teams were and not for the Marseille side, they have a chance to get close to add more pressure on PSG. Currently the point gap is 10 and I'm certain that Marseille will reduce it to 7 by getting a comfortable win against Strasbourg in tonight's game so is not going to be a problem and like I said, PSG need to pass through these guys Lille, Monaco and Marseille or maybe some of the other stubborn guys to win the league which I believe won't be that easy especially the Marseille return leg (that's they haven't played it yet).

It could happen when Marseille consistently wins the rest of the season and on the other hand, PSG has bad luck in several matches which will make Marseille's chances bigger.

I watched the Paris Saint Germaine game at Lens yesterday and honestly speaking, I don't like the fact that the French league is so less competitive that even on their bad days, Paris Saint Germaine still manage to win games. It was a poor and boring performance from the reigning French champions who had to rely on Barcola's 86th minute goal to get steal all three points from that game.

Regardless of the result in the game involving Marseille vs Strasbourg tonight, I don't think there's anything that's gonna stop Paris Saint Germaine from winning the French league this season.

In addition to the Montpellier vs Monaco match, I think the Lille vs Nice match is also one of the tight matches happening this week, throughout the match I saw if the two teams continued to be able to pressure each other, the match went with high intensity until match end and showed the equality of strength and quality of the two in Ligue 1 at the moment.

The victory 2-1 over Nice, managed to bring Lille to the 3rd place to shift the position of Monaco who lost in the previous match, while Nice who lost the match actually had to be willing to drop to the 5th place in the current ligue 1 standings.
The match was indeed a match for equal teams. The statistics of both matches were also almost the same, although the advantage was finally won by Lille. A good result for Lille who shifted Monaco.

In another match, PSG who are currently at the top of the standings had to be left behind by 1 goal from Lens. There were not many opportunities from both teams, PSG might have made possession of the ball, but they looked quite careful in building attacks. PSG might have to be more aggressive when they see a gap to be able to equalize the score quickly.
Lille and Nice have ambitions to continue to climb to a better position in the league so both are very motivated to be able to win that match, besides that the composition and quality of the team are equal offer us to see an exciting match to watch.

PSG is still able to maintain its status as an undefeated team, although in yesterday' match they were behind from lens in the 36th minute, but there is still not better option for us to betting than from them victory, because the proof in the match, although they were behind but they managed to make a comeback by beating Lens 1-2 in the end.

The match was tight and Paris Saint Germain was able to win with a score of 2-1. I think they also deserved to win, although Lens also played well but they were not so ready to be able to secure points from their guests in this match.
Paris Saint Germain is still quite comfortable at the top of the standings, they now have a 10-point gap from Marseille, at least until Marseille plays a match this week. Looking at the opponent that Marseille will face, they should be able to win, but they must achieve that victory with hard work. Because Strasbourg is also not an opponent that can be underestimated.

Today's games:

Lens - Paris Saint-Germain (I see PSG coming out on top in this game, they'll at least score 2 goals and both teams will score)


Two teams that attract attention with their high tempo football are facing each other. Lens has problems defensively and suffers losses because of that, but offensively, on the contrary, he has no problem finding goals. Lens is effective in wing organizations and can give his opponents difficulties with these organizations. PSG, on the other hand, continue to sweep their opponents and are in a comfortable position in the league. PSG will play a tough away game, so they may prefer a controlled game plan, but PSG have a clear advantage in the last 5 games between them. The favorite is PSG as always and I expect PSG to win by a single goal in this match.

IMO, Lens does not have a bad defense and Lens does not have a good attack because even though Lens is in the top ten but the number of Lens' goal productivity so far in Ligue 1 is not good enough. But even so, atleast Lens still has a decent defense and thus, Lens still has the balance to be able to maintain its position well. But indeed,for the final result is 1-2 and you are all right, if you bet on the correct score, then of course you get a good win in this match too. I personally only choose PSG to win, and that's enough  for me, because in reality, PSG lost at half time with a score of 1-0, but  in the second half PSG managed to turn things around to 1-2.


In the last 4 games that PSG played in Ligue 1, they conceded a goal in all 4 goals, even though in some of the games they were against weak teams, but as they have managed to score goals, that's why I imagined that in this game they would manage to score 2 goals and concede at least 1 goal. PSG is getting weaker and weaker compared to years ago when they had a strong squad but weak coaches.



today's games:

Saint-Etienne - Nantes (I see Saint-Etienne winning this game)

Angers - Auxerre (I see a draw and with few goals)

Marseille -Strasbourg (I see Marseille winning this game)

Saint Etienne and Nantes, both in the relegation zone in the French Ligue 1, will meet today. Saint Etienne recently brought Eirik Horneland in charge of the team. In the first half of the league they had one of the worst defenses in the league. They conceded 37 goals in 17 games. On the other hand, Nantes, like Saint Etienne, are in the relegation zone. They have only 3 wins in the first half of the league. I think both teams are equal in strength. I'm going to bet on both teams to score again. This option can work in matches like this one.

In this match I saw something different from the Lille players, they never stopped looking for opportunities to catch up after Nice managed to close the first half with a score of 1-0. The second half was completely theirs, scoring 2 goals and the most epic comeback ever by Lille.
This victory took them to 3rd position and shifted Monaco's position, which was surprisingly defeated by Montpellier, who were in last place.

If you look back at yesterday's rematch, you will definitely see a change in strategy from Lille and one of the strategies was to put continuous pressure on Nice which made Nice's defense lose confidence and Lille managed to score. So in that match Lille was superior in the second half because that was the change that had to be made to be able to lock in the winning score.

And today we will watch the match between the teams that are in the runner-up position,

Marseille vs Strasbourg (BTTS)

Although Strasbourg is below Marseille, in the history of the two teams' meetings Strasbourg has always been superior and if Marseille wants to win, they must strengthen their defense.

And from this victory LOSC managed to shift to occupy 3rd place because today Monaco suffered defeat against the bottom team Montpellier, it was humiliating defeat for Monaco but very profitable for LOSC and today I quite salute Nice who were able to fight hard to avoid defeat even though in the end LOSC remained superior thanks to their solid defense.
Congratulations on winning the bet, today Lens will play against PSG, I predict for PSG victory even they will definitely be able to score more than 2 goal, what do you think.
Before this match started, we had difficulty in predicting who would win this match. At that time we also talked about the hosts having more advantages, and that's what happened in this match.
It can be said that this match was quite balanced, only the hosts were able to make better use of the opportunities they got to become a goal and that allowed them to secure 3 points.
Nice was indeed able to take the lead first, but Lille did not give up easily and managed to turn things around to lock in the win.
Just little less satisfying that LOSC only won narrowly and they even had the chance to be held to draw by Nice, although in the end LOSC was the win, many people made them the favorite because they saw LOSC impressive strength during the first half of this season, they also became one of the dark horses in Ligue 1.
There is chance for LOSC to finish this season as runner-up, they only need to surpass Marseille and we know is quite strong but Marseille weakness is that they cannot perform consistently, this provides good opportunity for LOSC to seize second place in the future.

One of the things I have expected from Ligue 1 is that a team, at least one like Monaco, among so many that there are, can make life impossible for a PSG, PSG is the team that plays the most in Ligue 1, classified as the team that has Ligue 1 dominated in its entirety, until a team is the one that faces it and becomes a rival to such an extent that it becomes a classic, Ligue 1 will always be dominated by PSG, how many times have I not seen teams that start very well and then I see them in a place that doesn't fit, it's because they need that which PSG has so much.
That is the hope of most people so that Ligue 1 can be much more competitive because with the competition it will increase people's interest in following the league. PSG is very difficult to beat in Ligue 1 and even teams like Monaco or Marseille also have difficulty beating them, let alone talking about other weaker teams who rely on a number of players to compete.

Ligue 1 will be much more interesting if there are four to five strong teams that can compete with PSG so that the competition for the title will be much more interesting. If that doesn't happen then it will be difficult for PSG themselves without doing better in the Champions League because they are not used to facing the pressure in their own League.

Montpellier had been woeful in their last 5 games in the league, i wonder how they managed to beat Monaco? i won't have believed it if i was told earlier on that Montpellier would win Monaco today especially now that Monaco needed to use this match to try and get back to form. Monaco themselves are not in form lately and thus needed this win to get back on track, but their opponent had something else installed for them.
Today's games:

Lens - Paris Saint-Germain (I see PSG coming out on top in this game, they'll at least score 2 goals and both teams will score)

Rennes - Brest (I see this game ending in a draw with both teams scoring)

Lyon - Toulouse (I see Lyon coming out on top in this game, they'll at least score 2 goals)
If you played this as an accumulation or parley, you lost woefully because only PSG delivered while the other two played away win and goalless draw respectively. I don't think that there is any gambler that would have gotten the outcome of those matches correctly because Brest was supposed to be a draw match judging from their form and recent performances. Brest would have been better but they are playing away which gives Rennes some advantages to hold them. Also Lyon supposed to win that match but seeing that they did not even score a single goal is so disappointing.

Lille vs Nice

It was a fierce competition between the two teams when in the first half they gave each other resistance and ended with a very good contribution from Lille defender, Bafodé Diakité to lock the winning score in the second half.
Actually Nice almost managed to hold the match to a draw but unfortunately Lille defense was stronger and was always able to thwart the opportunity.
Before the game, Nice were one point better than Lille in the French league standings which was why I predicted that it was going to be a very difficult game for both sides but would expect the home team to get the better of the away team and just like I predicted and staked on the game, it came out the way I exactly predicted.
Boy teams are fighting for a place in the top three so they can be guaranteed a spot in the UEFA Champions League competition next season so you don't expect the home team to lose such an important game. Nice really to protect their lead till the final whistle

Player injuries are always the cause of a setback for a team when competing, but it needs to be prepared carefully so that it does not have much effect on the competition. Squad depth is something that is quite important so that when this happens the coach has the option to rotate the players needed. The beginning of the season was better because Monaco appeared very promising, but as the competition progressed they began to have problems achieving victory.

If they could lose against Montpellier then everyone would definitely doubt Monaco and the defeat was beyond our predictions because Montpellier is not a tough opponent. Lecomte was impressive in goal as he made a number of saves as Monaco lost the match.

One of the things I have expected from Ligue 1 is that a team, at least one like Monaco, among so many that there are, can make life impossible for a PSG, PSG is the team that plays the most in Ligue 1, classified as the team that has Ligue 1 dominated in its entirety, until a team is the one that faces it and becomes a rival to such an extent that it becomes a classic, Ligue 1 will always be dominated by PSG, how many times have I not seen teams that start very well and then I see them in a place that doesn't fit, it's because they need that which PSG has so much.

Lens - Paris Saint-Germain



For the PSG odds themselves, I think they are quite large even though PSG has performed consistently this season and the odds should be quite @1.45 / @1.50 but @1.73 in my opinion is very large and I suspect there might be a surprise in this match whether Lens beats PSG or will get a draw.
Odds @1.73 is a good amount to bet on PSG because there is a possibility that PSG can win over Lens in this match. According to my prediction, PSG will win with a narrow score like in their previous meetings. There is also a chance of a draw. If you have to bet but are hesitant between choosing PSG to win or draw, another option in my opinion is that both teams can score goals.
I must say I'm in shock to see that PSG was given 1.73 odds against Lens, I thought it would have been about 1.3 odds or even less. This is indeed a good match to bet on because the possibility of PSG beating Len is so high. This odd may be as a result of the recent matches of Len where it lost 1, drew 1 and won 3, coupled with the fact that it will be played in their home.

Either way, PSG should win and I will surely bet this match, wish me luck! Wink

#Edit: The odd has even risen to 1.91 on Stake.





It was strange, the game in turn was an easy walk for PSG as it seemed to me. They definitely didn't tense up, only occasional pinpoint attacks, otherwise they felt relaxed and not tense. You can generally see that in the stats themselves. Despite the fact that Lance had a lot of shots on goal and even managed to score a goal it didn't stop PSG from turning the game around and winning it
