Not only now the PSG be favorite to win Ligue 1 even before the league starts, they have become a strong candidate to become champions this season, so I think there is nothing surprising about their current statistics including consecutive wins at the start of the season, PSG has a squad that is very capable and they are still better than the current rival teams, the quality of the squad and also the financial differences have been a strength for PSG to be able their to easily win Ligue 1, but unfortunately the greatness that PSG have in Ligue 1 is not comparable to their performance and mentality in the Champions League which very bad so far, to be honest if we talk about Ligue 1 of course we can't deny that they are the strongest candidate to be champhionsip, while other teams are currently only competing for a place in the UCL, but for this season Champions League, I personally don't expect much from PSG.
PSG are looking much stronger and ambitious this season, better than they were in the last campaign. I also have a strong feeling that they will emerge as Ligue 1 champions at the end of the season, that is if nothing goes wrong along the way.
It wouldn’t be a shocker to see PSG win the league considering the current quality of the players they have and their history of winning the domestic leagu. PSG do not inspire the same level of confidence in me as regards to their performance in the Champions league. They do not seem to do very when competing against the best teams from other top European leagues. Like you, I would not put my money on PSG in the UCL.
Going with the performance of PSG after few games they are looking stronger than last season and the level of goals they have scored already after 3 matches is enough to see them as a team that will continue their history as the dominance of the domestic league. The team has young players despite not having any notable star player right now but their performance has been brilliant so far as they are not looking like a team that wants to underperform in any match this season.
The champions league has been the major challenges the PSG team has faced despite having some big players in the team in the past but they couldn't win the competition but having a new manager and young players that are willing to give their best performance we could see them performing beyond the expectations of football fans who knows if they can get to the final of the champions league this season that's if they are able to defeat the teams that will be challenging them in the champions League competition.
