The first reason why Lyon started the season badly was just a lack of talented players and a bad coach, but after Lyon replaced the old coach with a new coach and also got new players, they were finally able to make big changes and it was very clear that the new players were obtained from the season's transfer market. Cold yesterday made a good contribution and successfully helped Lyon leave the red zone.
Lyon's victory against Toulouse can be guaranteed if Lyon will win according to the history of meetings between these two clubs. Lyon always dominates the victory so yesterday's defeat was not something sad for Toulouse because they have often experienced defeats against Lyon.
Lyon is one of the popular clubs, so as I said at the time, Lyon will definitely rise again to improve their performance and enter the top 10 positions.

Lyon performed not really well in the early season and dropped more several week in relegation zone, but after game week 26 Lyon success recovery to the impressive performance and success out from relegation zone with current position on 10th standings. But current standings Lyon still not secure yet from relegation playoff behind 9 points remaining with Nantes but have 8 matches left seems enough for securing their position in Ligue 1 next season.
Last match, Lyon success defeating Toulouse and brilliant come back after conceded 2-1, for securing their position in Ligue 1 next season Lyon need to get 6 points later or win two matches left. Large opportunity for Lyon not only secure their position keep existing in Ligue 1 but also reach the top six standings position and get Europe League ticket next season. Left 8 points from Lens its not difficult to catch if can secure three points all matches left.

Lyon didn't start the season well, they had quite a hard time getting points but slowly their performance started to improve from a total of 10 wins or 30 points, of which they achieved six of those wins when the season was halfway through.
Lyon is lucky enough to be able to improve the condition of their team as soon as possible, which has kept them away from the relegation zone and so far has managed to get into the top ten.
Lyon managed to beat Toulouse, and the two goals they managed to score after trailing 1-2 made them successful again in getting full points even though this was an away match.

It is clear that Real Madrid will come to pick up Kylian Mbappe to play with the Los Blancos next season and of course it will further improve Real Madrid's performance next season, although this has not yet reached a definite agreement and other elite clubs are also eyeing his signature but I don't think Mbappe is that interested and he prefers Real Madrid, which Mbappe will use as a good place for his future, but he needs to remember that Real Madrid does not pay a large salary like when he was at PSG, so he must be prepared for the rules and requirements of Real Madrid when he is there.

It is natural that Kylian Mbappe has always been a target for elite European clubs because of his excellent performance at PSG and he played a big role there, especially with his free transfer status, anyone would feel lucky if they got his signature without spending a penny to recruit him, so that's the choice for him. Being at Real Madrid is the right decision because he will be a top player there and compete fiercely in all competitions and he will also be helped by teammates who have equal strength which will make the Real Madrid club a feared club in Europe.

Mabappe is a very good and skillful player no doubts and I give that to him in the fact that he's been very instrumental int the growth of PSG too but then this comparison seem not to be seating well with me because these two players are playing in two different capacities and in different league and has aswell done tremendously well for their teams until they were both faced with some form of challenges.

If you look at both players they both seem to have some characteristics similarities with their experiences in the team where they both play and even in their various national teams aswell, Napoli in a long time has not experiencing a trophy but the arrival of osimhen changed the narrative, since the arrival of mbappe it's been glory glory for PSGso both player's have been impactful and very helpful aswell to both team and as such shouldn't be compared as one been better than the other, if ansy team has got preference for why they choose one over the other it's just their preference.

Both players in their capacity are really good and if placed in environment much better than that which they have now I think they will both do much more then they have already in their present team, osimhen is very smart and intelligent like mbappe too because it takes such quality to achieve that which he was able to achieve through his stay in his team and same also applies to mbappe .

Kylian Mbappe have already confirmed that he's going to leave Paris Saint Germaine at the end of the season and even when it's not been confirmed of where he'll be heading to, it's understood that the France national team captain is bound to be a Real Madrid player next season. A lot of clubs have shown strong interest to sign Kylian Mbappe from Paris Saint Germaine but he is more interested in joining a club that'll help him win the UEFA Champions League trophy and considering the squad at Real Madrid and the fact that they're managed by a manager that happens to be the most decorated manager on the competition having won it on four different occasions, Kylian Mbappe seems like he's very much interested in joining Real Madrid after the expiration of his current contract with Paris Saint Germaine in the summer.
The big problem for Paris Saint Germaine at the moment is how they can successfully get a good replacement for Kylian Mbappe at the end of the current season. Mbappe is one player that's very good with what he does with the ball at his feet and getting a player that can single handedly win big games for Paris Saint Germaine like he does will definitely be a big challenge for the club.

Very difficult who predict who could supposed to become the substitute player for Mbappe, but whoever that player will be, I think he does not have an easy job to do. The expecations will be huge and once the fans realize that there is a big fat gap that Mbappe is leaving behind, the new player could have a hard time to pull the crowds onto his side to support him. There is no player who is as explosive as him and who is so much fun to watch. Now if they sign someone and pay a lot of money, it somehow implies that the new player is meant to be the savior. But what are the chances that any new player will play similarly strong as Mbappe? It's not possible. But still PSG has tons of money available and they are still good and attractive enough to sign top players from any club.

Who's coming for Kylian Mbappe? Elite teams have fought so hard for his signature but he picks Real Madrid because that's his next destination and have become an ultimate target for Los Blancos. Kylian Mbappe is important player at both club and country level of football. There have been one to two scenarios or even more, Kylian Mbappe have proven himself and he's always ranking the top player because there's possibly none like him. Kylian Mbappe is different from other species of players, his pattern is different and he's always in for goals other than entertaining the supporters just like other players triggered.

Well a striker leaves a club especially one whose imapct is really great on the club, getting a replacement seems to be quite difficult as most players who could be at the level of the departed players might not be ready to offer their services to the club. This is the case for PSG who’s about to lose her key player because man wants to chase his dreams. Man is tired of playing in the French club and he’s had a long dream of playing in Real Madrid and that dream is about to be a reality because his contract agreement with the Spanish club will be announced soon.

 This is a big move for the player as this signing will now bring him to the limelight for individual accolade. What then happens to PSG, this is one big gap that they’ve ought to fill really fast and that’s why you see them already scouting on players who’ll be able to fill up this void. The club will sure struggle if they don’t act fast as you can see how bad their performance has been recently when Kylian isn’t in the match. Getting a replacement at Kylian’s level might be pretty difficult but they can at least try to scout for one that could at least be close to the level of Kylian.

 This will real help be the club though it could be difficult growing from the scratch but it can be done. The club wouldn’t want to go through the same phase they went when Mbappe was at Monaco and for that reason, I think they’ll be sure to get a good replacement for the lad who’ll at least offer great services to the club rather than being a liability. I wish them luck and I also wish the fans would be able to have the required patience needed for this kind of changes.

Mbappe and Osimhen are of course very different in terms of quality and way of playing, but what needs to be seen now is not that because PSG must currently pay special attention to all its players in order to be able to do more good things in the UCL. Now PSG has a fairly balanced opponent in the UCL so PSG must be able to create extraordinary tactics in order to survive in the UCL. Meanwhile in Ligue1, PSG has gained more of an advantage through their points so PSG only needs to make slight adjustments in playing their squad here in order to protect their players from injury.

Considering the odds available during the pre match, at least no one is really a favorite, because theirodds are around the same number. Therefore, at least any result can happen in this match but yes, for some reason I also have more confidence in Lyon to win this match. Because basically Lyon came from the relegationzone but at this moment Lyon managed to be in the top 10 and because of that, basically Lyon really has betterquality than Toulouse. Even though it is true, it is quite risky to bet on Lyon because Lyon also plays away, but the fact is that so far at least Lyon is better when Lyon plays away. With these factors, it seems like this match really has a big chance for Lyon to create a wider points gap with Toulouse, which is currently right below Lyon in the Ligue 1 standings.

The match between Toulouse versus Lyon looks like it will end in a draw, even though on paper Lyon has the better chance today. Both teams have the ambition to maintain their respective positions in the top 10 of the standings, and honestly it is difficult to guess who can secure full points in this match. Statistically, Lyon has recorded a better trend, but the strengths of the two are not much different, and neither looks more dominant. Lyon has experienced better development in the second half of the season, it is possible that they can have luck even as guests. The match has started, we will see whether Lyon can do their best by stealing points at home to Toulouse.

These two teams are side by side on the standings and seeing Lyon good progress, I think they have a chance to steal points at home to Toulouse. And also statistically in the last 5 meetings between the two of them, Toulouse has never won against Lyon. For this reason, I am sure that the match which will start soon will definitely be quite exciting because both teams want to improve their ranking on the standings.

Apart from that, Lyon is quite safe in their position for the time being because their ranking is better and has been able to stay out of the relegation zone and this is an improvement that was previously very focused on and now they have succeeded in doing it. To close the season in 5th place seems quite impossible for Lyon but they have made quite good efforts recently. Yes, regarding opportunities, I'm sure Lyon can get 3 points in today match.

Mbappe is a professional player which means it will be easier to adapt with his new club and with this what we are worried about?
To this day I cannot news about Osimhen who will replace Mbappe because I really believe that Osimhen will not be willing to accept offers from PSG for various reasons and the main reasons are only about his career.
On the other hand this plan will not occur in the next season or will occur in 2 seasons after this when Osimhen's contract is over, but I'm not sure Napoli will not maintain the player.
Actually Osimhen performance is quite worthy of replacing Mbappe even though his expertise is not like Mbappe but Osimhen is not a selfish player so it is easier to continue to improve PSG performance but it seems impossible.

It's natural because after all, Osimhen needs the support of other players who support him when competing on the field. talking about Mbappe and Osimhen, I will not compare between these two stars. but clearly, Mbappe has everything. unfortunately, he has not been able to lift the Champions League trophy. As for Osimhen, this player will shine even more if he joins the ideal team. especially in competitions where the competition is tighter, like the Primier League for example, which incidentally has much better competitors than Ligue 1. However, I am quite sure, Osimhen is a player who is ready to play in any elite team. In this way, his name will skyrocket and his talent could even develop further than when he joined Napoli. but speaking of which, I haven't had time to read the rumors or news linking Osimhen and Paris Saint-Germain.

Now let's talk about the star from France, namely Mbappe. yeah, there are many who hope that Mbappe will soon join El Real. thus, it is certain that the team from the Spanish League giants will be strong and competitive. Mbappe's presence with Real Madrid opened up opportunities for El Real to win various events including the Champions League. Plus, Mbappe's chances of winning personal awards are wide open with Real Madrid compared to Paris Saint-Germain. It's just that, what I say is still based on assumptions and speculation. in fact, this has not yet materialized. So, to be sure, we'll just have to wait for next summer.

Sorry guys, I don't totally agree with you if you say mbappe quality is far from Osimhen, when you compare Osimhen with mbappe obviously you also don't judge how competitive Serie A and Ligue 1 is at the moment, so osimhen performance that you might doubt can actually be said to be greater because he plays in a league that does have comparable opponents even though he did come from Ligue 1 before,  Playing in a league that is not competitive and at a club that is able to dominate the league every season does it make Mbappe worth saying better now than Osimhen or any other player?

If Mbappe still stays at Monaco of course he is no better than the strikers at other clubs in Ligue 1 at the moment, Mbappe's ability looks great when he has great support from PSG and I think if later Osimhen also becomes a mainstay of PSG of course he will look very great as a striker in ligue 1,  To be honest, I personally would never compare Osimhen and Mbappe because indeed both have the capacity as a striker that we can probably say is quite good when being a mainstay of their respective clubs.

I agree with you, actually in the last season when they had players like Messi, Neymar, and Mbappe in their team, people started making predictions about PSG and they said PSG could win the Champions League because they had the best players from all over the world and because they got the best team by spending too much money for hiring many expensive players in their team. But they were wrong because PSG couldn't have a balanced team. They didn't have good teamwork, while in this season they don't have many superstar players like they had before but instead of having these players, this time PSG got a more balanced team thanks to their coach Enrique. This can maybe help PSG to have better achievements than last season.

However, that doesn't mean that when he joins Real Madrid he will immediately be able to give his best performance, he has to adapt first, and if the adaptation process fails then maybe he will become a failed player. However, with the abilities he has, I see that he will be able to get through that process, and hope he can become an even greater player, I mean by winning many titles with Real Madrid. Mbappe has to adapt to the situation, because he will not be treated the same as when he was still in the Paris Saint Germain uniform.

Osimhen, yes, he is not as big as Mbappe, but his abilities cannot be underestimated. Even when Napoli are not in a very good condition, he can still provide something different, even if it is not optimal. I think he also has to consider that if he wants to leave Napoli, he has to have a club that can support him in team play, because if you only rely on individual ability alone, in my opinion it is less effective, so he has to really consider which club he will choose next. .

He still cannot be aligned with Mvappe, especially Osimhen's name shines only from last season in contrast to Mbappe, who has always been one of the wonderkid names that is very calculated from the last few seasons so that in terms of popularity and flying hours, it is certain that Osimhen is still below Mbappe and indeed that cannot be denied, it's just that looking at other situations, we will also definitely agree that Osimhen can be one of the suitable replacements if in the end Mbappe leaves PSG.

Osimhen's performance is still very good and is still sharp enough if it is supported by resources and players who understand the wishes of Osimhen and that was proven by his performance last season.
Although indeed this season Osimhen's performance has decreased slightly but basically it happened because of several conditions where there are internal problems and injuries that interfere and make the quality of play and productivity that Osimhen has decreased.
Even though it's like that but 17 matches and 11 goals in Serie A I think Osimhen's goal ratio is still quite good with the conditions of the problems he faced in Serie A this season.

Toulouse vs Lyon

Opening match of week 25 between Toulouse vs Lyon and last week Lyon can successfully to beat Lorient and this result too makes their position is quite safe now and i have to says new manager of Lyon Pierre Sage has been giving significant progress for Lyon performance because within 3 months Lyon performance was very change because since December until this month Lyon can gets 8 wins in Ligue 1 and this also makes their position on league standings were jumped from 18th place to 10th place so confidently i will says Lyon will be able to accomplished their target with not to be relegated to Ligue 2

For Toulouse their performance is not so different just like last season because similar to Lyon they also still struggling to fight to avoiding relegation zone and from meeting statistics Lyon has good records from Toulouse because since 2020 Lyon still unbeatable from Toulouse and for betting options recently i have checked the odds for them it's not so different with Lyon is slightly the favourite and actually it's hard to predict the outcomes of this match because their recent performance is not so different but just like i said above considering Lyon has good records from Toulouse then my predictions is Lyon will being an the winner of this match and Lyon win has high odds @2.47
