Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)
Week 4 will be a match between Paris Saint Germain vs Brest. This should be a match that Paris Saint Germain can win, Brest has lost 2 of the 3 matches they have played, that means their strength is not the same as last season where Brest could compete at the top of the standings and could win 1 ticket to go to the Champions League. I don't remember the last time Brest was able to beat Paris Saint Germain, because based on the data I saw from 2010 the best achievement when facing Paris Saint Germain was only being able to draw. They often struggle and even when they were in their best form last season, they couldn't beat Paris Saint Germain. Paris Saint Germain is highly favored to win.

Without further analysis, most bettors would bet on PSG victory without hesitation. But for me the odds of PSG winning are very small and will probably prefer to bet on PSG score over 2.5. The reason I believe that PSG is able to score over 2.5 is because from the 3 matches that PSG has played, this team has managed to score 13 goals and Brest currently has a very weak defense conceding 7 goals. Brest current condition gives PSG a great opportunity to score at least 3 or 4 goals if possible. Enrique is very confident that this season will bring PSG to the top of the standings with a very large points difference with other teams.source
