Lorient vs PSG Prediction & Betting Tips - Ligue 1

Prediction published on 05/11/2022, 01:48  by Daniel Ngulu in Ligue 1 Prediction

French giants PSG are unbeaten in their 20 matches so far this season and they will be looking to uphold this when they travel to Lorient for their next game in Ligue 1. Lorient have been on a slump and go into this game placed fourth with 27 points in Ligue 1. PSG, on the other hand, are top with 35 points. The home team goes into this game winless in the last three games and the most recent was a home loss, falling 2-1 to Nice after taking a first half lead. Lorient have managed just one clean sheet in their last five matches and both sides have scored in all the other four. They’ve failed to score in one of the five matches. Four of their last five matches have ended in over 2.5 goals and they are winless in their last two games at home.

PSG are coming from five straight wins; they have scored two or more goals in each of the last four games but they have just two clean sheets in the last five. They are yet to taste defeat in all competitions this season, having played 20 matches but in the last three matches, they’ve failed to keep a clean sheet, with both sides scoring. In Ligue 1, they have dropped points just twice this season, in draws with Reims, and Monaco. PSG have the joint best defence in Ligue 1, alongside second placed Lens, but no team has a better scoring run than them. Lionel Messi, Neymar and Kylian Mbappe have been in great scoring form and this has been a massive lift for the champions. In their last five away league matches, PSG have kept clean sheets, and only failed to score in one.
