With no Neymar, cast out from the group amidst rumours of transfer negotiations, PSG revealed the Brazilian celebrity won’t be sorely missed following Cavani, Mbapp?? along with Di Mar??a scored at a convincing 3-0 win over Nimes.
Meanwhile, Lyon, that seem to be PSG’s main challengers, overcame Monaco within a remarkable away triumph with the same score. Could, however, other best French sides stop these two? Keep reading to learn more about our bets.
PSG would be the apparent contenders to win their seventh straight cup. They finished last season a staggering 16 points before Lille. And even though they decided not to spend lavishly in this summer’s transfer window, which remains open in France until September 2ndthey brought in gifted players to bolster their squad such as Spanish duo Pablo Sarabia and Ander Herrera. Rounding off the roster, they signed up Senegal international Idrissa Gueye and versatile 23-year-old defender Abdou Diallo out of Borussia Dortmund.
This makes trainer Thomas Tuchel’s team seem even more consistent this season, by the deadly attack of Cavani, Mbapp?? along with Di Mar??a into a skilled midfield and strong defense. Regardless of the decision to separate Brazilian celebrity Neymar, that will probably be heading into either Real Madrid or, probably, Barcelona, PSG, at only -1000, remain the undisputed favorites to take the name back into Parc des Princes.
Olympique Lyonnais, only called Lyon, are happy to return to their glory ancient into mid-2000’s times, even when they dominated French football and won seven straight foot cups. The squad are consistent finishers at the top of the table, also ensured the third spot last year.
Looking at their new gamers, they seem to have chosen wisely, leading to the likes of center-back Joachim Andersen out of Sampdoria and past Lille gamers Thiago Mendes and Youssof Kon??.
In addition, coach Sylvinho’s negative has a powerful attack consisting of Dembel??, Depay along with Traor??. Together with PSG’s never-ending obsession on winning the Champions League, Lyon could manage an upset. Our bet is that the 2019-20 Ligue 1 will be a two-way battle between the two of these clubs, using Lyon standing at +1400 chances to lift their eighth French cup.
The very first outsiders that come to mind will be Lille, that have three titles, their final one in 2010-11. Coach Christophe Galtier’s team finished second last year, and have spent significantly, following their 80-million-euro selling of Nicolas P??p?? into Arsenal. To replace the striker, they also signed Turkish left-footed ability Yusuf Nazici, whose abilities comprise quality shots and passes.
They also brought in Nigerian forwards Victor Osimhen, who scored both goals in Lille’s 2-1 defeat of Nantes in their opening match of the tournament on August 10, in addition to Timothy Weah and Benjamin Andr??. Lille are priced at +3300 to go all the way this time around.
France’s classy league certainly is in no shortage of talent. Thus, other traditional squads shouldn’t be ruled out. These include groups like Marseille and Monaco, Amongst Others.
The first one is the fourth favorite side to claim the cup at +4000. The 2nd most successful national team with 9 cups, Marseille’s year, however, did not start off well. Coach Andr?? Villas-Boas was brought in to bolster their defensive capabilities, but they endured a shocking 2-0 home loss to Reims in their first game of the contest on August 10.
With a limited budget due to financial honest play regulations, Marseille’s most important signing this year is striker Dar??o Benedetto, who with loads of precision and speed, is their main expectation to score targets and bring them back to the top of soccer soccer.
Finishing our main stakes are Monaco and Saint-??tienne, both priced all of the way out at +5000 to pull of what would certainly be a shocking defeat of the Ligue 1.
