At this point, we can only make assumptions on which team will manage to take European tournaments spots. Top 3 qualify for the Champions League directly and the 4th finisher goes to playoffs. How do you expect top 4 to be by the end of the season?
PSG is not fighting for the top spot in the points table. Now the target of the teams is to qualify for the Champions League. We thought Marseille would fight for the title. But this team has lost its form badly. If Marseille cannot improve their performance, then it is going to be difficult for them to qualify for the Champions League.

Marseille, Monaco, Nice, Lille, Lyon and Strasbourg are all trying to qualify for the Champions League. And the points gap between these teams is very small. Marseille is only 4 points behind Strasbourg. So the team whose performance is stable now will be able to qualify for the Champions League. It is not possible to make a prediction about which three teams will be in second to fourth place in the table so quickly.
Marseille gave up the chase for the title a long time ago if you have been following them. At first I was thinking they were ready to pull a surprise such as we saw in the German Bundesliga last season by Bayern Leverkusen. They started very well and gave us hopes only to dash them when we least expected. The last beating they received from PSG sealed their fate and confirms that PSG have had their way this season.

If Marseille had closed some of the gaps between them and PSG, they would have had a good opportunity to draw closer when PSG starts playing the champion league matches where they are expected to concentrate most of their players. But the gap is too wide so it will be difficult to close.
