The temporary score for the match between Lyon against Monaco ended in a 1-1 draw at half time and even though Monaco is playing away, but Monaco has a better statistical record, at least Monaco is better at making attacks. Thus, at least Monaco will still be safe in fifth place to secure Europa League tickets next season.
Lyon is currently leading Monaco by 2 goals to 1 and I expected it because Lyon is into the game more than Monaco both in completed passes and in possession. While Monaco is almost sure of European football next season, Lyon is still not sure of any European competition yet. Monaco has to be more consistent to finish well.
Paris Saint Germain will face Auxerre this week, and this game will be a game that if they win then they will claim the title this season. On paper it was very clear that they would win given how weak their opponents were. Now their point difference is 6 from second place, that means 3 additional points are enough for them, because even if they fail in 2 matches they will have superior goal productivity.
It doesn't feel like we are getting closer to celebrating the Ligue 1 title this season with PSG. After all, PSG will not waste this opportunity to immediately close the season with the certainty of a trophy in the near future. Auxerre is not a difficult opponent for PSG, moreover Auxerre's position is now at the bottom and only one position away from the relegation zone this season. It's an easy game for PSG and it looks like if we bet on a win PSG will certainly make easy money. Not too confused by predictions, what is certain is that PSG will win this match with at least 3 goals.
PSG is not immune again losing to Auxereer in their meeting because they will be fighting with a different spirit. I know how it used to be when a club is fighting to escape relegation and Auxereer is caught up in this condition.
