Wednesday's Ligue 1 predictions including Lorient vs. Paris Saint-Germain

Lorient vs. PSG (Wednesday, 6.00pm)

Lorient welcome Paris Saint-Germain to Stade du Moustoir on Wednesday in a rescheduled gameweek 29 fixture in Ligue 1.

The relegation-threatened hosts could move out of the bottom two positions with a win over Luis Enrique's men, who could be crowned champions if results elsewhere go their way.

We say: Lorient 1-3 Paris Saint-Germain

Despite picking up four points from their last two Ligue 1 meetings with PSG - a 3-1 win in Paris in April 2023 and a goalless game in this season's reverse fixture - Enrique's team should end that two-match winless sequence against Les Merlus on Wednesday, taking another step towards a 12th top-flight crown.

Marseille vs. Nice (Wednesday, 8.00pm)

Two teams chasing European football in Ligue 1 will face off on Wednesday night when Marseille welcome Nice to Stade Velodrome.

The hosts are without a win in their last four matches and are seven points behind the visitors with five matches left for both sides to play.

We say: Marseille 1-1 Nice

Marseille have been on a poor run but they remain solid on home soil, only behind two sides for points won at home. Nice have been inconsistent in the past two months and have not looked like the same side that started the league. Considering these factors, we think that this will be a close affair and we are expecting a draw.

Monaco vs. Lille (Wednesday, 8.00pm)

Monaco host Lille in a rescheduled Ligue 1 gameweek 29 clash at Stade Louis II on Wednesday.

The home side go into this week's game keen to delay Paris Saint-Germain's coronation while preventing the fourth-placed visitors from moving level with them in the standings.

We say: Monaco 2-2 Lille

Despite both sides winning three games on the trot, Wednesday's game is tricky to call. Monaco's form at Stade Louis II is questionable, while Lille's road results leave much to be desired.

The home side's 11-game undefeated streak against the Mastiffs should become 12, with both sides possibly cancelling each other out in midweek.
