Luis Enrique is happy with his team, atleast they're elite and doesn't give him more stress than his former club, he needs to continue his streak winnings and ensure he grab the important points for the club, accolades received are based on the tremendous display of his team and his lucrative team's tactics for matches. Paris Saint-Germain only stand top because there's no other competitive club competent of competing with then for the Ligue One title. PSG remained favorite to win the League title this season, notwithstanding any pressure coming in.

PSG still favorable team for winning upcoming match today against Strasbourg and won't loss points second time in a row after last match hold draw by Brest.
Strasbourg is 10th standings position team awhile and have not winning last two matches in a row, I think not difficult for PSG get winning this match and make comfortable the first standings position from Nice pressure on 2nd place behind 6 points remaining. Sport bookie give interested odd for PSG after getting draw last match and against Strasbourg got @1.55 odds and likely very bigger odd, PSG will play full team in this match because they don't have any schedule yet except will face Real Sociedad in Champion League two weeks later

because in Ligue 1 no team can shift PSG's dominance. competition is possible for other teams, but not for PSG.
The impact can be seen when PSG competes in European competitions. with poor game consistency, they dream of the Champions League, but they always fail.
All fans must have seen how the competition in Ligue 1 is not the same as in the Premier League or Serie A.

It's not an easy match, but with all the advantages on paper they have, they should be able to finish this match with a win.
In fact, every Ligue 1 match they play, Paris Saint Germain will always hold the status of favorites, no matter who the opponent is. But the fact is that they also often slip up and in the end do not win the match. I will consider it still reasonable, because it is not easy to get a victory in every match. But the problem is when they don't show a good game, because we can say their defeat or draw is not because they are unlucky, but they deserve to get that result judging by their performance in the matches they play.
Apart from winning, for me a promising game must also be shown.

Yes, it is true that PSG is still the strongest club in league 1, it can beat any club but not all of them because in reality against Brest it only ended in a draw and against Lille it also ended in a draw and that means PSG is the strongest club in league 1 but if it is against a club that knows the strategy or every loophole in PSG will definitely only end in a draw as Lille and Brest know how PSG players play.

Talking about PSG in the Champions League, I'm not sure it will be successful as long as it doesn't have solid players.
I say this because PSG, although very strong in League 1, is all because of its flagship player Mbappe, but in the Champions League it requires strong competition and if a club doesn't have solid cooperation and only relies on one player as a scorer, I'm sure it will be easy. The opponent will read the strategy and of course the opposing club will continue to focus on Mbappe so that he will not score easily.
PSG can win the title in the Champions League as long as they are able to provide other strategies such as relying on all players to play an important role as scorers as long as there is an opportunity defenders must also be able to score.

For today match although PSG has just gets draw result from Brest last week but their status is still the favourite this because PSG was unbeatable in the last 14 matches and gets 11 wins from those matches and for their opponent Strasbourg indeed since Patrick Vieira handle this team Strasbourg performance was much better even if we see from the recent performance from Strasbourg this team has showing significant progress because in Ligue 1 Strasbourg can gets 3 wins from 5 latest matches and these good results too makes their position on league standings is much better and Strasbourg position is now safe from relegation zone

If we talking about meeting statistics for both teams obviously PSG is much better because as the strongest team in Ligue 1 it's hard for other teams to beat them even so with Strasbourg because Strasbourg has poor records from PSG and about this match Bradley Barcola will be absense because he was received red card when PSG draw from Brest last week and Ousmane Dembele probably will not available today because he was not in the good fitness and PSG certainly will being an the winner of this match but PSG has odds @1.51 but other option just like both teams to scores or over 2.5 goals also good pick for this match

It would not be surprising if in the end PSG managed to stop the positive results achieved by Strasbourg in the previous few matches and honestly, Strasbourg's advantage as host will not be enough to save them from defeat tonight. PSG will still continue to advance with another win even though in the previous match they had to draw against Brest.

If we look at the H2H of these two teams, PSG has actually dominated quite a bit, but draws often thwart PSG's ambition to win. But I think a team like PSG will not dwell on poor results and they will recover quickly. Kylian Mbappe will still be a frightening figure for opposing defenses and I hope he can score another goal again in this match. I would bet on PSG absolutely and I wouldn't hesitate to add a handicap to increase the betting odds.

Strasbourg will face with PSG soon and they are not in the good form to even make any problems for PSG because the current squad of PSG is strong enough to beat Strasbourg easily.
However, the performance of Strasbourg was not bad at all in the recent games we saw from them and Strasbourg was unbeaned in the last few games we saw from this team which can show this team is ready to get even a draw against PSG but I don't think if they can.

The current squad in PSG is strong enough to beat any team and they have good players there but the fact about PSG is they are perfect in the French League but still, this team needs much more work for the Champions League and I don't think if the current PSG can even be a problem for other teams in the Champions League. However, they are lucky enough to have a huge gap in the French League with Nice because they are playing in the French League with less stress.

It was a truly surprising result. They are only 6 points ahead of NICE at the moment. But I think Nice will not be able to catch PSG's points because we know PSG is able to bounce back after unsatisfactory results and Nice also often appear inconsistent in several matches. So I think PSG will still be champions at the end of the season.
Against Strasbourg I don't think they will be able to beat PSG. Strasbourg has indeed performed quite well in the last five matches and is able to be in the middle of the standings. But it won't be enough to say they will be able to shock the world by beating PSG.

"...the uncertainty of whether Mbappe will survive or not next season..."

Is Mbappe sick or something? Damn this is huge news you are spreading here, but I couldn't find any headlines or any other source that confirms Mbappe might die next season. Where did you get the information from that nobody really knows whether Mbappe will survive next season? I doubt that Real Madrid would be willing to sign a player as the new big figure who is supposed to drive the future of Real Madrid forward if they can't tell whether he is even going to live for another 12 months.

I am very curious where you got these news from and if you can share your source, then please do it. But I respect if you got some inside information here. Too bad Mbappe is ill. I hope the best for him.

The uncertainty surrounding Kylian Mbappe's future at PSG does indeed raise concerns, especially considering the drama could widen again and the relatively short time left on his contract. If Mbappe decides to leave, PSG will likely need to allocate substantial resources to secure a suitable replacement. The departure of a player of Mbappe's caliber could pose a challenge for the team, and finding a player with a comparable impact on the attack might prove to be a difficult task.

If Mbappe stays, there is hope for the team's attacking prowess to continue flourishing. But PSG need A well-balanced team that requires strength in all areas, not just the attack. The uncertainty around Mbappe's future adds an element of suspense to PSG's upcoming season, and it will be interesting to see how the club navigates these challenges, both in terms of player retention and strategic planning for the team's overall composition.

The problem is the uncertainty of whether Mbappe will survive or not next season because after all, with the drama they created at the beginning of last season, this is actually a sign that Mbappe's future at PSG will not last long because until now, in my opinion, PSG only continues to try to impose its will by holding Mbappe in the conditions of Mbappe's contract which is not long over.

This will have a domino effect in the end if indeed Mbappe leaves, PSG will inevitably pour out considerable capital to bring star players as their replacement but if indeed Mbappe survives, at least there is little hope while looking for suitable players in midfield because until now the attack line with Mbappe in it has been very good, it's just that their midfield and of course their coach are also still quite dubious.

This is already quite clear in France, so it cannot be denied by many other teams in Ligue1 because PSG's strength always exceeds that of other teams in Ligue1. The draw that PSG got against Brest had absolutely no effect on PSG's position and even currently PSG is still six points ahead of second place. So PSG is still comfortable enough to continue trying to get the title this season and of course it won't be too difficult for PSG this season.

Well, it's quite true that if you look at PSG performance in Ligue 1, it seems like there won't be any difficult obstacles for them to win the trophy this season. The depth of the squad which is strong enough this season will make them at the forefront to continue to dominate as a team that wins successive trophies. This season, Luis enrigue has many quality players in the team, from the starting eleven to the reserve players, all of whom have the best quality. So there is no obstacle for Enrique to bring PSG to win the Ligue 1 trophy this season.

But in the previous match, PSG was held to a draw by Brest, which made PSG performance in the previous match less than satisfactory. However, I think they will return to winning ways in tomorrow's match when they face Strasbourg. In the standings table, PSG is 6 points ahead of its closest competitor. Of course, in tomorrow match, PSG will focus well on getting 3 points again to widen the point gap with the second place team.

In fact, Brest's performance was not that outstanding in this competition, of the 19 matches they played, Brest was only able to win 10 matches, 5 matches were draws and 4 matches were defeats. Regarding goal productivity, Brest is not very productive for a team that is currently ranked 3rd in the Ligue 1 standings. however, if Brest is able to survive until the end of this season and remain in the top four of the standings, they deserve appreciation and it will be an extraordinary achievement for them. Remembering that last season, Brest was ranked 14th. this season, Brest is doing something different. as is the case with Nice, which is currently in 2nd place in the Ligue 1 standings. However, regarding goal productivity, Brest is better than Nice.

IMO, this condition actually occurs because top teams such as Monaco, Marseille, Lille, even Lens, are not able to perform as well as in previous seasons. so it's natural that Brest and Nice stand out a little this season. however, we'll see how these two teams play match after match until the end of the season. because AS Monaco and Lille have the potential to shift the ranking occupied by Brest and Nice, if these two teams perform consistently until the end of the season. This week, Brest will play a match against Nice at the Stade Francis-le Bie. Let's see which team will win this week's match.

Strasbourg have recently become one of Ligue 1's most ambitious teams. Strasbourg will host PSG, who are also in the title race this season. Scoring in 8 games and climbing up to middle row, Strasbourg have lost only once in their last 10 games. This is incredibly motivating for them and they will want to keep it going. PSG, on the other hand, will want to continue their title run after the surprise home draw against Brest and will have a game plan accordingly. PSG can be mentally drained at times and I expect them to keep things tight against a team on the rise, while Strasbourg will want to take advantage of their home field advantage and add to their good run. PSG will have their work cut out for them in this match and they could suffer a surprise defeat.

Overall, PSG current squad depth is very good, they have an even squad across all lines, and it looks like Luis Enrique has taken the risk of just using the available players. It's true, when you look at PSG track record this season in the Champions League, it seems like they need additional proven strength to be able to get closer to their ambition of winning the most prestigious trophy in Europe. It could be that PSG is avoiding FFP sanctions that might be imposed on the club, because they continue to buy star players at exorbitant prices.

I think PSG actually doesn't need to add any more star players if they can ensure Mbappe stays at the club, but if Mbappe leaves then there is no other choice for PSG. On the other hand, Luis Enrique actually has to streamline his squad next season, there are several players who appear very far from standard. It's possible that PSG will start shopping for players on a large scale again after the season ends, and for this season we'll see what Luis Enrique can provide with the squad that is already available.

Maybe the reason the two clubs shared the score and ended in a draw is because PSG and Brest both have a very clear goal that PSG wants to maintain its position to continue to be in first place to provide a further point difference from Nice and Brest has the goal of getting additional points to catch up second in league 1 this season so I wouldn't be surprised if the match between PSG and Brest ended in a draw, PSG even had a chance to score 1 more score but the fact is that Mbappe failed to kick the ball on target and on the one hand I have to admit that Brest has a strong defense. quite good and has very consistent attacking players.

Maybe you mean Nice points 38 not 48.
In the upcoming match, I have confidence that Brest will get 3 points from the match and beat Nice, which currently does not have strong consistency like Brest and it is time for Nice to be replaced by another club that is more worthy of being runner up this season. This.
When looking at the previous meetings between these two clubs, Nice was superior, having beaten 3 times, but that cannot be a guarantee because Brest's current condition is much stronger and they will also compete as hosts which gives them the opportunity to win the match with a score of 2-1.

Looking at PSG right now, the way they did not really felt like they needed any big names to the team during winter was actually a statement on what they think about the team.

I am not saying that they are going to need it for the league, they do not need anyone for the league, but they would need some better players for the UCL title if they want that, which I can see that they really do want it but they are not really approaching it like they do. If they got some super names during the winter break, that would have made them so much better and they could use those players to get some good results at UCL as well. They already won everything except the UCL title so they should be focusing their moves based on that.
