Top French Ligue 1 Games to Watch This Week (Feb. 11th – 13th)
Stade Rennes +420 vs Paris Saint-Germain -178
- When: Friday, Feb. 11
Paris Saint-Germain has won 3-of-5 with a draw versus Lyon and a penalty kick loss to Nice in a Coupe de France match.
PSG heads into this after blasting Lille 5-1 on Feb. 6. Stade Rennes beat Brest 2-0 in their last, but this is a big step up from Brest. PSG should roll. At the odds, Paris is an overlay.
Soccer Pick: Paris Saint-Germain
Lille OSC +122 vs Montpellier HSC +195
- When: Saturday, Feb. 12
Both teams are struggling. Montpellier has lost 4-of-5. In their last, the home underdog fell 3-1 to Saint-Etienne.
Lille has also lost 3-of-5. The defending champs are on a 2-match losing streak. The loss to PSG makes sense, but dropping a match to Brest by 2 goals doesn’t. Montpellier has home pitch advantage and is worth a look.
Soccer Pick: Montpellier
OGC Nice +260 vs Olympique Lyon -108
- When: Saturday, Feb. 12
Nice and Lyon are rolling. OGC Nice has won 4-of-5. Lyon has won 3-of-5 with a draw and a loss.
Lyon drew versus Paris Saint-Germain and lost to AS Monaco. Lyon lost to Clermont Foot, but bounced back with a nice 4-1 win over Marseille. Lyon has home pitch edge, but Nice has won the last couple of head-to-head matches. So the road dog gets the nod.
Soccer Pick: OGC Nice
FC Lorient +1 ½ -151 vs AS Monaco -1 ½ +109
- When: Sunday, Feb. 13
Lorient won the last head-to-head. However, the match happened last August. Both teams are different than when they last threw down.
AS Monaco is on fire. The home favorite has won 4-of-5. The last loss happened on Jan. 23 in a 3-2 game versus Montpellier. Monaco has won 3 straight by at least 2 goals. They can cover this handicap.
Soccer Pick: Montpellier
AS Saint-Etienne +205 vs Clermont Foot 63 +125
- When: Sunday, Feb. 13
Clermont Foot is on a 2-match winning streak. Both victories impressed.
On Jan. 23, Clermont beat Stade Rennais 2-1. Then on Feb. 6, Clermont took down scorching Nice 1-0. The home squad is an overlay at +125. Give Clermont Foot a look.
Soccer Pick: Clermont Foot
Olympique Marseille -153 vs FC Metz +370
- When: Sunday, Feb. 13
Metz has just 1 win in their last 5. While Metz has struggled, Marseille has played decent soccer.
On Feb. 9, Marseille fell 1-4 to Nice. But the match was a Coupe de France game. Often, Ligue 1 teams don’t show their best in Coupe de France matches. Ask Paris Saint-Germain, which fell to Nice in a Coupe match.
Marseille beat Angers 5-2 on Feb. 4. That’s a better indication of how the road favorite will play in this game. Marseille is the play.
Soccer Pick: Marseille
