Rémy Vercoutre, a former goaltender for Olympique Lyonnais, was ready to play the prognosis for the end of the 2024-2025 season of Ligue 1. According to him, the LOSC could finish in fourth place. While the fight for first place is over, it is the podium race that attracts the attention of fans and observers. The difference in points between AS Monaco, second, and RC Strasbourg, seventh, is only four small points.

The LOSC performed well this weekend by beating AJ Auxerre (3-1) at home and rising to fourth place in the standings. Charlotte Lorgeré, consultant for DAZN, praised this performance in her show La Zone: “Places are expensive, really expensive, and this weekend I want to talk about Lille. They did a very nice operation last week in Toulouse, and then they logically win. They are fully part of this struggle that is pretty crazy. "

Rémy Vercoutre then gave his prognosis for the end of the season: “When you see the dynamics of Monaco since the beginning of the season, it is coherent enough for them to finish in second place. Marseille should be content with the third direct qualifying place for the Champions League. With regard to LOSC, I see them finishing fourth. It is a mature team with experienced players and a staff, notably Bruno Genesio, who is used to fighting in the last straight lines. "

However, Charlotte Lorgeré is not convinced by the LOSC’s chances of keeping this fourth place until the end of the season: “I find Lille’s strength somewhat limited. They lost important players such as Osame Sahraoui and Edon Zhegrova, and Bruno Genesio had to make some refistolage. As soon as one or two players are missing, it’s complicated.”

Despite this opinion, Rémy Vercoutre remains confident in the LOSC’s chances: “With one game a week and a technical staff that has the know-how, I put a small piece on them.”
