Sunday's Ligue 1 predictions including PSG vs. Lorient

Sports Mole provides score predictions and previews for all of today's Ligue 1 fixtures, including PSG vs. Lorient.


Monaco vs. Montpellier (Sunday, 12.00pm)

Following a massive setback last weekend, Monaco return to Stade Louis II on Sunday with a chance to stretch their unbeaten run at home in Ligue 1 to three matches when they host Montpellier HSC.

The Champions League aspirations of Les Monegasques suffered a blow when they were beaten 3-0 at Lens, while La Paillade ended a three-match winless run by defeating Rennes 1-0.

We say: Monaco 2-1 Montpellier HSC


Of the 27 teams that Monaco have faced at least 30 times in Ligue 1, they have been the most successful against Montpellier, with a top-flight winning percentage of 56.1%.

Besides that, Les Monegasques have looked incredibly potent in the attacking third at home, while the suspension of Savanier could leave Wahi stranded up front and make life easier for the home team to contain him.

Clermont vs. Reims (Sunday, 2.00pm)

With just a single point separating them at the moment in the Ligue 1 table, there is plenty to play for on Sunday when Reims makes the trip to Clermont.

Both teams have the chance to continue putting pressure on those above in European positions which gives them further incentive to perform.

We say: Clermont 2-1 Reims


This is sure to be a closely fought game due to how tight the gap is between them in the league table, and that is likely to be reflected in the scoreline.

However, with the home advantage and the fact that they are enjoying a strong run of form right now Clermont should just be able to edge out this one.

Rennes vs. Angers (Sunday, 2.00pm)

European-chasing Rennes welcome bottom-placed Angers to Roazhon Park for a Ligue 1 clash on Sunday.

The visitors are destined for Ligue 2 and their relegation could be confirmed this weekend.

We say: Rennes 3-0 Angers


Rennes will be fully expectant on maintaining their charge for Europe by bouncing back with a win over the league's bottom club here.

Angers have shown signs of improvement recently, but they are unlikely to find the win that may be needed to delay the inevitable relegation confirmation.

Troyes vs. Nice (Sunday, 2.00pm)

Troyes take on Nice at Stade de l'Aube on Sunday afternoon, in the latest round of Ligue 1 fixtures.

The hosts are almost certain to be relegated as we approach the end of the season, currently sitting in 18th place, while the visitors are up in 10th.

We say: Troyes 2-3 Nice


Nice have struggled in recent weeks, but Troyes cannot seem to buy a win at the moment and they have been poor all season, meaning the visitors are likely to emerge with a narrow victory.

Despite their position in the Ligue 1 table, Troyes have been decent in front of goal, while Nice are without a clean sheet in their last nine games, so it could be a high-scoring affair.

PSG vs. Lorient (Sunday, 4.05pm)

Inching ever closer to their customary Ligue 1 title, Paris Saint-Germain aim to take another giant step towards glory when they welcome Lorient to the Parc des Princes on Sunday afternoon.

Les Parisiens more or less consigned Angers to their fate with a 2-1 triumph last weekend, while Les Merlus were defeated 1-0 at home by Toulouse.

We say: Paris Saint-Germain 2-0 Lorient


Galtier was understandably left far from happy with the manner of his side's win against a defensive-minded Angers, and a similar setup from Lorient will serve to frustrate the champions again.

Patience may be the name of the game for the hosts, but we have no doubt that the champions will eventually see out a professional win, potentially with a rare home clean sheet against an out-of-form Lorient side who do not travel well.

Marseille vs. Auxerre (Sunday, 7.45pm)

Two in-form sides meet at the Stade Velodrome in Ligue 1 on Sunday, when Marseille face Auxerre.

Despite being at complete opposite ends of the table, both sides have been in formidable form to aid their respective end-of-season objectives.

We say: Marseille 2-1 Auxerre


Marseille's form at the Velodrome has not been great, but a win here last time out plus success at Lyon last week may give the side an additional boost.

Auxerre will not make it easy for OM, though, and should cause the home side more than a few problems in this one.
