Ligue 1 predictions: PSG vs Marseille: 14/03-16/03
How will Marseille react in the upcoming game against PSG after last weekend’s shock 1-0 home defeat to Lens? De Zerbi’s side continues to sway away from challenging the Parisians for the Ligue 1 title, and their hopes could potentially finally be crushed if they lose to PSG.
Lyon staged a comfortable 2-0 win away against OGC Nice, and currently sit four points away from the top three. Monaco will take on Angers away from home, knowing that a win can potentially take them into the top three.
This week’s Ligue 1 2024/25 gameweek 26 predictions were based on current form, data, and expert knowledge.
Ligue 1 2024/25 gameweek 26 predictions: 14/03/2025 – 16/03/2025
Auxerre and OGC Nice to exchange goals: OGC Nice vs Auxerre
- Date: 14/03/2025
- Kick-off: 20:45
- Both teams find the back of the net when they cross paths, and they may repeat the same in the upcoming game.
OGC and Auxerre have met several times in this competition, and their last five meetings suggest this game will produce goals. Both teams scored in four of their last five Ligue 1 meetings, and with OGC Nice scoring and conceding goals this term, there’s a huge chance both clubs will find the back of the net in the upcoming game.
OGC Nice vs Auxerre prediction: Both teams to score - yes
Nantes and Lille to find the back of the net: Nantes vs Lille
- Date: 15/03/2025
- Kick-off: 17:00
- Both teams don’t hesitate to find the back of the net when they come up against each other, and they may display their attacking points again this weekend.
Lille will participate in the Champions League in midweek, so we don’t expect them to be at full energy against Nantes away from home. Furthermore, both teams scored in four of their last five league matches, so we can count on the hosts to find the back of the net against a weakened Lille side.
Nantes vs Lille prediction: Both teams to score - yes
AS Monaco to continue their dominance: Angers vs Monaco
- Date: 15/03/2025
- Kick-off: 19:00
- Monaco may have endured mixed reactions lately, but they enjoy coming up against Angers.
AS Monaco have a long list of meetings with Angers, but their most recent matches were interesting. Monaco won four of their last five meetings with Angers in Ligue 1, and with the visitors still in the race for a top-three finish, we expect them to continue their dominance over this side this weekend.
Angers vs AS Monaco prediction: Away team to win
Lens and Rennes to produce at least two goals: Lens vs Rennes

Lens and Rennes have met each other several times in this competition, but let’s focus on their most recent encounters. Four of their last five Ligue 1 matches ended with at least two goals, and we expect the upcoming game to end similarly.
Lens vs Rennes prediction: Over 1.5 goals
Lyon to do the league double: Lyon vs Le Havre
- Date: 16/03/2025
- Kick-off: 15:00
- Lyon thrashed Le Havre in the reverse fixture away from home, so we expect similar energy in the return leg.
Lyon enjoy coming up against Le Havre, and just like the reverse fixture that ended in a 4-0 win for the hosts, the return leg will be as exciting, mainly for the home fans. Lyon are pushing for a top-three finish, and to achieve this, they have to win games like this.
Lyon vs Le Havre prediction: Home team to win
Montpellier or St. Etienne to win: Montpellier vs Saint-Etienne
- Date: 16/03/2025
- Kick-off: 17:15
- Matches involving these teams rarely end in draws, and we think the upcoming game may follow suit.
There’s a long list of meetings between these two teams, but their last five meetings were rather interesting, as none of those encounters ended in a draw. Both teams are currently struggling, but we expect one side to take the points.
Montpellier vs Saint-Etienne prediction: Home team or away team to win
Brest and Reims to exchange goals: Brest vs Reims
- Date: 16/03/2025
- Kick-off: 17:15
- Both teams find it easy to get on the scoreboard when they come up against each other, and the upcoming game may follow suit.
Both teams scored against each other in four of their last five Ligue 1 meetings, including the reverse fixture that ended in a 2-1 away win for Brest. Just like the reverse fixture, we expect the upcoming game to follow suit.
Brest vs Reims prediction: Both teams to score - yes
Strasbourg to avoid a defeat in front of their fans: Strasbourg vs Toulouse
- Date: 16/03/2025
- Kick-off: 17:15
- Strasbourg have a good record against Toulouse, so we expect them to avoid a defeat in the upcoming game.
Strasbourg lost just once in their last 11 Ligue 1 meetings with Toulouse, and the upcoming game may follow suit. Both teams are in decent form, but we expect the hosts to avoid a defeat against Toulouse, who lost the reverse fixture 2-1 at home.
Strasbourg vs Toulouse prediction: Home team to win or draw
PSG and Marseille to delight fans with goals: PSG vs Marseille
- Date: 16/03/2025
- Kick-off: 20:45
- PSG and Marseille don’t fail to entertain fans with goals, and the upcoming game may follow suit.
PSG and Marseille have a very long list of meetings across all competitions, but their last five meetings were rather interesting. Four of their last five encounters in all competitions ended with three or more goals, and with both teams displaying their attacking mastery almost every week, we can safely anticipate at least three goals from the upcoming game.
