Checking the results Lyon got so far in this season, maybe some people are thinking Lyon is not a strong team and they are always in the and situation as we see from them these days, but Lyon was an strong team in French and they were racing for the title in this league.
But I think if they don't make a serious decision about Lyon they will fall forever.

Which is normal, it is normal to expect them to potentially get some point(s) from this game but also it is normal for Nice to get a win as well. Sometimes when the levels are so close, it's really not easy to make that kind of guess. In the end when you see them beat Liverpool, it is easier to get hyped about it, after all this team is at europa and they won against liverpool, so you start to think to yourself "maybe this team is quite strong" and that's normal, but also it's football and you do not have to end up expecting one thing and getting the same thing at all times, you could potentially end up with something that has to be a bit different one way or another.

I believe that we are going to end up with a situation that could change eventually. I hope that we could be doing something that would be a little different one way or another, and should be something that will benefit everyone. It's really not a big deal to lose out on this bet, it was expected and understandable.

There are 5 points between the team right above the relegation zone and Lyon at the moment. Lyon have a missing game though but even that is against Marseille away. How many points could Lyon get in that game you think? I think it would be zero. The way they are playing just isn't credible at all unfortunately.

I won't be surprised if this journey ends up with being relegated from the Ligue 1 honestly. For now they are a hopeless case. I don't even know whether there would be any manager who can save them from this situation despite everything now.

I doubt that any zone when it comes to relegation is in any way comfortable, as if any team would say it is cool to be trailing around in a zone that might send you to the next lower level of the next domestic years competition.

PSG is still this one team, but it should be noticed that winning Ligue 1 does not mean it is the same as winning Premier League.

I'm amazed how Nice continues in second place and very close to PSG at the top of the table, they are a team that can't score many goals and it's unbelievable that in 13 games they only managed to score 14 goals but they are still in second place but they are a team with the best defense in the league, in 13 games they only conceded 4 goals. In their last game against Toulouse, I found it unbelievable how Nice were lucky to come out of that game with victory, Toulouse had good chances to score goals, but Nice has a very good defense, Nice's goalkeeper made excellent saves. and Nice's defensive players managed to prevent Toulouse from scoring a goal

It was also incredible how Nice's coach shouted in celebration of the victory, it seems to me that he has some objective he wants to achieve and that with this victory his objective is still alive. I think the Nice coach is doing a great job and has been very lucky, it's not normal for a team that can only score a few goals to be at the top, that's thanks to the great defensive power that the Nice team has on the field. If Nice had the funds to sign good attacking players then they would have a much better chance of becoming champions, but currently they would have to wait for PSG to perform badly for them to become champions, something I doubt will happen.


this season I see that it will be a very difficult mission for PSG to get far in the European champions league, in my opinion their chances of getting through to another stage will be very difficult, they are in a group in which there are strong teams and if they had managed Winning all the games in this group then they would be seen as a strong candidate to win the European Champions League, but seeing the poor performance they had in some games in this group stage, I think that PSG have no chance of reaching the final and it will be difficult for them to move on to another phase

Lille is expected to win although they were playing away. Lyon is very weak this season and even though they woke up a bit and collected 4 points in the previous two rounds, they ended up losing and they will continue to lose probably vs Lens next and Marseille later. They have to win vs Toulouse before losing vs Monaco in the games following the previous ones. It is a hard situation they are dealing with and relegation probability will remain high if they will not improve the team..

From the start I had sympathy for Lyon's performance which was not like the big Ligue 1 teams that I know. Let's assume there are still about 22 games left this season. With its current position at the bottom of the standings with 7 points, it can still change and get out of there if the club takes quick steps to resolve various obstacles.
It's not good if a club as big as Lyon is relegated. Fabio Grosso may not be a good choice to save Lyon's position.

It is still possible that Lyon will get another disappointing result in the next match if Fabio Grosso is still serving as coach.
If Lyon had to accept the fact that they would be relegated, I would call it a desirable condition and they made absolutely no effort to make their fans' wishes come true.

I agree with your first sentence. It always makes one worried to bet on this much high odds especially the remaining bets have much lower odds. For example I predicted Real Madrid to defeat Barcelona in the last El Clasico but I couldn't be that brave to bet on it.    Congrats on your huge win by the way because the total odds are really mouth-watering.  

I had doubts about this Lyon - Lille match also. Because I thought maybe that win over Rennes would fire up Lyon players a little bit to get at least one point.

But Lille finished the match in the first half already unlike my expectation.  

Maybe the degradation zone is comfortable for them, so they are reluctant to leave there. Even though I understand that Lyon is one of the elite clubs in Ligue 1, what they are showing now is really damaging the reputation of the club that has been built previously. The change of coach has not been successful, and most recently they lost badly at home 2-0, which is really embarrassing.

I just think they can only target this season to get out of the degradation zone, no longer talking about the UCL zone, Europa League or something like that, because that looks impossible for them. I read the history of Lyon under the leadership of Jean Michel Aulas, it impressed me, it seems like the change in ownership has not yet shown signs that they will become title contenders. the january transfer market should be a solution to rebuild the club, as well as boost their performance to be a little better.

The Lyon vs Lille match was a tense one for me because it was the deciding factor in my multibet bet and with such large odds there will always be worries about the outcome of the match.

However, luckily Lille can always provide consistent performances in this match and I apologize to Lyon because they are still the worst until now. Even though last night Lyon also performed quite well and they had several opportunities to score goals, but unfortunately their players' finishing was so bad that they couldn't score even one goal. A 0-2 win was very important for Lille to be able to shift Reims from the top 4 and they did it this week after silencing Lyon away from home. Well, this is another multibet win for me and I'm so happy that Lille always gives me the advantage.

After all, this is not a difficult prediction because ya, based on their position in the current Ligue 1 standings I also think it is clear, that Lyon is still in a bad situation at this moment. While Lille current position, at least Lille is in the top five and the win obtained in this match also makes Lille back into the top four of the Ligue 1 standings. Not only that, based on head to head records also that Lyon did not have good results when Lyon played against Lille. So ya, I think a win for Lille is a win on paper that will certainly come true but even so, I still get very good odds for Lille in this match.

Nice's only advantage is playing at home and Touluse's weakness is playing away when facing an away match against Liverpool Touluse lost but when playing at home Touluse won over Liverpool Touluse's away match was not good because of that Touluse lost.

Even though they are in second place, Nice's mentality needs to be doubted in order to win the title because I think PSG will win again in League 1, although Nice is still consistent and has never lost so far, but that is not enough because Nice still has to fight a lot in the remaining matches. in league 1. it is not easy to maintain consistency because in my opinion Nice was last season's Lens who were trying to get the title but unfortunately PSG won the championship again even though it was only one point apart and that means a lot for the team and Lens is right under PSG in second place.

In today's match of Lyon vs LOSC team in French Soccer League, LOSC scored two goals to win the match. J. David scored the first goal in the first 27 minutes of the game. T.  Santos scored the 2nd goal in 32 minutes. Lyon team's players didn't play well so they didn't score any goal in this match. Goalkeeper of Lyon team had a very bad performance in today's match. I thought LOSC team will win the match by scoring 4 goals. But with 2 goals  The match was won. After halftime Lyon team tried hard to score but could not score any goal.

Things like this are natural because however facing Lyon now who is in pain then surely 3 points can be achieved even though it is a little complicated because Lyon's resistance in this match is also quite good but I think Lille's victory in this match is something that is quite certain so there is no need to have doubts in it.

With the current situation Lille is back to enliven the top standings but not Lyon, which even though their momentum is quite good but with the defeat in this match then indirectly they have to start over from scratch because their rhythm is still out of order.
They play well on the field but the problem is that their defense is bad which has a lot of improvement in it.

since early stages of season, Lyon has gone through 12 matches, only able to get 1 win and from this result it can be predicted that against Lille, it certain that Lyon will not be able to withstand every attack from Lille attackers, while Lyon performance and defense are very bad, we can see from match yesterday Lyon seemed very confused about resisting any pressure from Lille.

we will all never know what problem is in Lyon line up this season which makes seem difficult to improve performance and I am not sure this season Lyon will escape the relegation zone even though they will get new players from the relegation zone but still Lyon will be far behind and could not improve his performance and had to accept the fact of being relegated.

As I was predicting to see, Lille won the game and we could easily guess the result before start of the this match because Lyon almost lost all the games they had so far in this season. I still don't know what the solutions are for Lyon to get in the better form because so far they have been really disappointing and this team should even get relegated at the end of this season.

Enrique led PSG to Ligue 1 glory. A fan following their path, I cant help but think winning the domestic league is just the beginning. PSG must excel in the Champions League. Considering Manchester City and Real Madrid's opposition, Enrique's debut season may be too soon for such a big win. Their squads have depth and balance that PSG is still seeking. Enrique must stabilise the midfield, where stability is crucial. He's up against it, but Im intrigued how he handles it in the following seasons.

Nice was struggling against toulouse. This club might not be strong but it was able beating liverpool on europa league. That's a good point to call it as a strong enough club. Nice has been trying so hard to win the game and terrem moffi has been giving a good solution to help nice get three points from its opponent. Im very happy to see my choice was right even though nice was winning with narrow score but this is not a problem at all. As long as nice win and that's enough.
There's no need to think it will be able to perform better caused in infact nice's performance is not the same like PSG which was showing how dominant the club against its opponent. Nice is always trying so hard to win.

It was always struggling against its opponent but its' also always winning even though it found so hard to beat its opponent. The thing i do really like from nice is the spirit of player.
This is also helping nice to perform better than before. Nice may be going to the UCL next season.

I previously predicted that Nice would win with a narrow score of 1:0 or 2:1 and it turned out that it was true that Nice won again with a score of 1:0. Indeed, Nice's goal productivity seemed normal and not very impressive. Nice was only concerned with winning without increasing goal productivity like which was done by rivals PSG and Monaco.
However, the most important thing for Nice right now is to continue to collect as many points as possible to win the title in League 1. Nice is the most consistent club and has not suffered a defeat so far. Indeed, Nice has lost a lot of points due to draws, but at least Nice has not suffered a big defeat. requires him to lose points overall and currently Nice only has a narrow points difference with PSG Nice can still catch up and will continue to be consistent in avoid many defeats

My guess was wrong. In the end, Toulouse could not get any points from the match. Nice again got a narrow 1-0 win. But we got the expected performance from the Toulouse players. They performed quite well. But Nice's defense is very strong. And against a strong defense it is difficult to score without an experienced attack. That's why Toulouse players can't score a single goal despite a lot of attacks. However, Toulouse's performance has improved. We may see this team in the top 10 of the next points table.
