This Sunday ended matchday 4 of Ligue 1<\/strong> in France, where all teams played their respective matches with the mission of getting 3 points to help them fight to be at the top of the standings, and, now more than ever, they can do it, after the dangerous PSG<\/strong> drew their match against Monaco<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This draw for the Parisian team ties them at the top of the table with two very strong and dangerous contenders, Marseille and Lens<\/strong>, all with 10 accumulated points. They are followed by Lyon, Lorient, LOSC, and Auxerre<\/strong>, with 7 points, but it should be noted that Lyon and Lorient<\/strong> have played one game less than the rest of the teams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the bottom of the table is Ajaccio<\/strong>, who have only been able to take 1 point out of a possible 12 at the start of the season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As will happen in some of the main soccer leagues in Europe, Ligue 1<\/strong> will play its 5th matchday in the middle of the week, being these calendars so tight to try to play as many matches as possible before the 1-month break that we will have in November-December due to the Qatar 2022 World Cup<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This matchday will be played in full this Wednesday, August 31, 2022, with 5 matches at the same time, where Lyon vs. Auxerre <\/strong>and Lorient vs. Lens <\/strong>stand out, which have started the season very well and promise to give great games. Then we will have PSG <\/strong>visiting Toulouse,<\/strong> and Marseille<\/strong> hosting Clermont<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Next, we will have a preview of the 4 best matches that we can enjoy on this new\u00a0Ligue 1 matchday<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The highlight of this matchday will be the game between Paris Saint Germain and Toulouse<\/strong> on Wednesday, August 31, 2022, at the Parc des Princes<\/strong>, home of PSG<\/strong>, to close this round of Ligue 1<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The current champions of Ligue 1<\/strong> and one of the teams with the best squad of players in the world, PSG<\/strong> comes to this matchday 5 sharing the first place in the standings with Marseille and Lens<\/strong>, the three teams have the same record of 3 wins and 1 draw, for 10 points out of a possible 12, but PSG <\/strong>has the incredible statistic of 18 goals scored in only 4 games played and that is why they are first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PSG <\/strong>comes from an extremely difficult match in their last matchday at the Parc des Princes <\/strong>against Monaco<\/strong> where they could not get beyond a 1-1 draw on the scoreboard. In this match, Monaco<\/strong> scored the first goal in the 20th minute through Kevin Volland. While PSG<\/strong> equalized the match in the 70th minute when Neymar converted a penalty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

–<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

On the other hand, Toulouse<\/strong> did not start the season as they would have dreamed, but they still managed to get 5 points out of a possible 12 to be in tenth place in the standings, only 2 points away from fourth place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Toulouse <\/strong>had played 3 very good matches in the first three rounds, but in their last match, they were crushed by Nantes<\/strong> with a score of 1-3. In this game, Toulouse <\/strong>started winning after scoring a goal in the 15th minute, but then they could not resist the onslaught of the home team and ended up losing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the most interesting matches we will have on this matchday 5 of Ligue 1<\/strong> will be the one between Marseille and Clermont <\/strong>this Wednesday, August 31, 2022, at the Stade Velodrome<\/strong>, on the beautiful Mediterranean coast of France at 03:00 pm ET.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Marseille <\/strong>confirmed at the start of the season that they are fully prepared to face PSG<\/strong> in the fight for the championship trophy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Les Phoc\u00e9ens has started with their full arsenal available, with the addition of Chilean striker\u00a0Alexis Sanchez\u00a0<\/strong>and the goal-scoring start of Portuguese defender\u00a0Nuno Tavares<\/strong>. They are on an excellent level of play.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Right now, Marseille<\/strong> is sharing first place with PSG<\/strong>, but in the statistics, they are shown in second place, as, they have scored 8 goals less than the Parisians.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Marseille<\/strong> comes into this match with 2 consecutive victories where they have proven to be a step above their opponents. The last one was against Nice<\/strong>, the disappointment of the season, with a crushing score of 0-3.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

–<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

On the other hand, Clermont <\/strong>has had a decent start to the season, where they have managed to get 2 wins and 2 losses in their 4 games played. With these 6 accumulated points, Clermont <\/strong>is in ninth place in the standings, but, only 1 point away from fourth place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Clermont <\/strong>had the misfortune to start the season by hosting PSG<\/strong>, where they were crushed by a score of 0-5. Then, they managed to recover in the best possible way and won two consecutive matches, Reims (4-2) and Nice (1-0)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finally, Clermont <\/strong>could not continue their winning ways last matchday, as they were defeated by Lorient<\/strong> with a score of 1-2.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The best match we will have on this\u00a0matchday 5 of Ligue 1<\/strong>\u00a0will undoubtedly be the one between\u00a0Lorient and Lens\u00a0<\/strong>next Wednesday, August 31, 2022, at the\u00a0Stade Bollaert-Delelelis<\/strong>, home of\u00a0Lens\u00a0<\/strong>at 03:00 pm ET.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The last 5 times they met in the tournament they had all possible results. The home side accumulated 2 wins, while the visitors had 1 win. In 2 matches they finished level on the scoreboard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lens<\/strong> comes into this matchday with the confidence, the spirit, and, above all, very inspired by starting the season in the best possible way with 3 wins and 1 draw, to be equal on points in first place with PSG and Marseille<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lens<\/strong> is now dreaming of fighting for the championship, and even more so after seeing how Monaco<\/strong> managed to get a good draw against PSG<\/strong>. So, it just has to keep on winning to continue with this objective.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In their last game played, it got a very good win against Rennes<\/strong>, with a score of 2-1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the other hand, we have Lorient<\/strong> another team that started the season in the best possible way with 2 wins and 1 draw in the 3 matches they have played.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lorient<\/strong> has shown a very good level of play and could follow the path of victory in this match against a direct rival such as Lens<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Les Merlus comes from a very good victory against Clermont<\/strong>, with a score of 2-1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
