Ligue 1 predictions: PSG vs Lille, Lyon vs Brest: 28/02- 02/03
PSG are clear at the top of the Ligue 1 standings with 59 points, and they can extend their lead and maintain their unbeaten run when they host struggling Lille this weekend.
Marseille, who sit in second place with 46 points, can bounce back to winning ways when they host struggling Nantes on Sunday, while Monaco and Reims kick off this round when they lock horns on Friday night.
This week’s Ligue 1 2024/25 gameweek 24 predictions were based on current form, data, and expert knowledge.
Ligue 1 2024/25 gameweek 24 predictions: 28/02/2025 - 02/03/2025
Monaco and Reims to score against themselves: Monaco vs Reims
- Date: 28/02/2025
- Kick-off: 20:45
- Reims have a good record playing away against Monaco, and despite their current form, we think they can get a goal.
Monaco have endured mixed results lately, and keeping a clean sheet against Reims that have out-bettered them in Monaco in recent years is wide off the mark. Having lost three home games in a row to Reims, expecting them to concede at least once is a fair expectation.
Monaco vs Reims prediction: Both teams to score - yes
Saint-Etienne and OGC Nice to entertain fans with goals: Saint-Etienne vs Nice
- Date: 01/03/2025
- Kick-off: 17:00
- Matches involving these teams regularly produce three or more goals, and the upcoming game may follow suit.
Goals are usually scored when these two teams meet in this competition, and the upcoming game may end similarly. The last time both teams met, Nice thrashed them 8-0, and with four of their last five league meetings ending with three or more goals, there’s a chance the upcoming game will end similarly.
Saint-Etienne vs OGC Nice prediction: Over 2.5 goals
Lens to end their losing streak: Lens vs Le Havre
- Date: 01/03/2025
- Kick-off: 19:00
- Lens may have underperformed recently, but they have a good record against Le Havre.
Lens avoided a defeat in four of their last five Ligue 1 matches against Le Havre, and having lost their last three league matches in a row, they are expected to take this encounter personally. Le Havre are fighting against relegation, and their squad isn’t good enough to grab a point against a team like Lens.
Lens vs Le Havre prediction: Home team to win
PSG and Lille to delight fans with goals: PSG vs Lille
- Date: 01/02/2025
- Kick-off: 21:05
- Matches involving these teams are fond of producing three or more goals, and the upcoming game may end similarly.
PSG and Lille regularly delight fans with goals when they come up against each other in this competition. The first leg ended in a comfortable 3-1 win for PSG, and like four of their last five Ligue 1 meetings, the upcoming game is likely to produce three goals.
PSG vs Lille prediction: Over 2.5 goals
Brest and Lyon to delight fans with goals: Lyon vs Brest
- Date: 02/03/2025
- Kick-off: 15:00
- Both teams delighted fans with goals the last time they met, and Lyon’s current goalscoring form suggests this encounter may be as interesting.
Brest beat Lyon 2-1 in the reverse fixture at home, and Lyon will only think about revenge in the upcoming game. With three of their last five matches ending with three or more goals coupled with their plans to avoid losing back-to-back to Brest, this encounter may have many goals in store.
Lyon vs Brest prediction: Over 2.5 goals
Auxerre and Strasbourg to exchange goals: Auxerre vs Strasbourg
- Date: 02/023/2025
- Kick-off: 17:15
- Both teams scored against each other the last time they met, and they may repeat the same in the upcoming game.
Auxerre scored three times against Marseille, who have one of the best defenses in the country, and what are the chances they don’t score against Strasbourg, who find it relatively easy to score as well?
Auxerre vs Strasbourg prediction: Both teams to score - yes
Rennes to avoid a defeat: Montpellier vs Rennes
- Date: 02/03/2025
- Kick-off: 17:15
- Rennes have a pretty good record against Montpelier, and they may avoid a defeat in the upcoming game.
Rennes won three and drew one of their last five Ligue 1 matches against Montpellier, who are struggling in the relegation zone. Rennes are in better form and occupy a better place in the standings, and while they may encounter some difficulties against Montpellier, they should be able to avoid a defeat.
Montpellier vs Rennes prediction: Away team to win or draw
Toulouse to come away without a loss: Angers vs Toulouse
- Date: 02/03/2025
- Kick-off: 17:15
- Toulouse enjoy coming up against this opponent, and their record speaks for itself.
Toulouse lost just once in their last ten Ligue 1 meetings, stretching back to 2016. However, only three points separate both teams, which suggests this encounter may as well end in a draw, an event that occurred in four of their last ten meetings.
Angers vs Toulouse prediction: Away team to win or draw
Marseille to bounce back to winning ways: Marseille vs Nantes
- Date: 02/03/2025
- Kick-off: 20:45
- Marseille love coming up against Nantes, and their record against this team shows they are likely to get back to winning ways this weekend.
Marseille dropped points last weekend following their shock defeat at Auxerre, but they have a decent chance of getting back to winning ways against Nantes. De Zerbi’s side won seven and lost one of their last ten league matches against Nantes, and their form this season suggests they are expected to continue their dominance.
Marseille vs Nantes prediction: Home team to win
