  • 2020-21 Ligue 1 season’s last round is held this Sunday, 23rd of May
  • Lille lead the table a single point ahead of PSG, three points ahead of Monaco
  • If they win their last game against Angers, Galtier’s team will get the title

The French Ligue 1 has become one of the most exciting top European leagues after still three teams can win the title before the last round. Third-place Monaco have only a tiny chance of winning. But PSG have a chance to overtake Lille and defend their title. They need to win against Brest on Sunday. And hope that Lille can’t do the same against Angers. Both teams favored to win their last games in the Ligue 1 last round predictions which would also mean Lille’s title victory. 

Paris Saint-Germain have won the Ligue 1 title in the last three years and were predicted to defend it again this season. But following their poor start of the season their chances of winning looked very thin. Their manager, Thomas Tuchel also left the team in the middle of the season to be replaced by Mauricio Pochettino. PSG suffered a few defeats ever since, but they still have the chance to win the title thanks to Lille’s mistakes. Christopher Galtier’s team has kept a one point advantage over PSG and can win the title for the fourth time in the club’s history. But they need to win their last game against 12-place Angers in order to secure that. Monaco mathematically can still win the title too, but would need a small miracle to do so.

Ligue 1 last round predictions favor Lille to win the title

Lille won the French title 10 years ago, in the 2010-11 season and finished as a runner-up in 2018-19. This season the team has been superb and been leading the league almost all season. But before the last round they are only a single point clear of the defending champions PSG. They will need to win the last game to keep their advantage. Online sportsbooks in France favor them to do so with the odds of 1.33. Lille’s players need to concentrate more though as in their last game against Saint Etienne, which they could only draw at home.

Their manager is afraid that his players can’t handle the pressure as much as their top rivals. Even though a few players, like Jonathan Ikone, Boubakary Soumare and Timothy Weah have arrived from PSG last summer. They all become key members of the team just like Turkish Burak Yilmaz who scored 17 goals in the season. But even the experienced, 35-year-old forward lost his calm in the last game. Now the whole team must focus against Anglers to get the three points which they are surely capable of. In the Ligue 1 last round predictions their odds to win the game is 1.36. 

PSG can win their fourth consecutive title

Paris Saint-Germain kept their title chances alive with their 4-0 win against Reims last weekend. They are favored to win the last game as well against 16-th place Brest. Who are still fighting against relegation at the bottom half of the table. Neymar and his teammates can’t expect an easy game but online gambling sites in France still favor them to win with the odds of 1.25. But even a victory won’t guarantee them the title after failing a point behind Lille.

Routine and experience are in the favor of the star club which won the French Cup against Monaco last night. Pochettino hopes that his players will get all the three points against Brest on Sunday while Lille will drop some. It would mean that PSG won the title for the 8th time in the last 9 years. The club has the odds of 3.25 to do so. While Monaco also have a tiny chance to become champions. But they would need both of their rivals to slip. And of course, Niko Kovac’s team should win in the home of Lens, who are currently in 6th place. Probably Monaco’s more realistic aim is to keep the third place against Lyon. Who also fight for the last Champions League spot with the odds of 2.50 to get it.
