After the shock OL vs PSG, and victory Lyon, some already announce that the 1st place is out of reach and the suspense will be played around the 2nd and 3rd place ... Really? What do you reserve for the meetings on the program of the 5th day of Women's D1? Here are some of our forecasts!

2nd place, Montpellier and Juvisy in the fight
If the draw (2-2) against Saint-Etienne during the first day of the championship, had made fear the worst for Juvisy, it is clear that even without a Gaëtane Thiney in great form (1 goal in 4 games), the Essonniennes continue to squat the steps of the podium. By overcoming the stubborn Rodez team on Sunday at home, Emmanuel Beauchet's players could continue to silence criticism by retaining all their chances of playing the Champions League next year.
Chance of the calendar or real boost of fate, the Juv'91 has not played a clash against Lyon, Paris or Montpellier and can quietly capitalize on winning or in case of bad results of their shares.

Last weekend, the MHSC players were scared against the Amazons of Saint-Etienne! By winning the game in the final minutes of regulation time (1-0), they showed that there are still some adjustments to make to acquire a very dangerous team status. Although the draw against Paris has confirmed the announced speeding, the captain Kelly Gadéa and his teammates know, no misstep will be allowed this season. It will therefore win against the Rock, but also treat the goal difference because sometimes everything is played on details in D1 ...

 

A step behind, Paris and Albi in ambush
How will PSG react after the sinking (5-0) against Lyon? While rumors circulated all week on social networks, for the moment, the choice of the club seems rather to move towards a "we take the same and we start again". And if in front, Nîmes took advantage of this period of turbulence to achieve the perfect holdup and finally launch his season after a rather difficult start? Reaction of pride or complete burnout, the Parisiennes will have to decide to continue to "dream bigger".

Last year, Albi was promoted like the others, who struggled for his maintenance, before dreaming of a place in the first rank. The arrival of the coach Adolphe Ogouyon, during the summer transfer window, seems to have brought balance and dynamism to change the group to the best, or even much better.
The players of Soyaux could they pay for this momentum of optimism? Given their jagged results, everything seems possible and it is probably the team that will be the most solidarity on the ground that will prevail.

 

At the bottom of the table, Guingamp and Saint-Étienne to the trouble
Last year, we had announced great plans for these two clubs, the results were even conclusive and yet, at the beginning of the season in Guingamp as in Saint-Etienne, it smells a bit of wet firecracker ... Si Sarah M'Barek's players could get back in the saddle against the VGA Saint-Maur, it looks very complicated for the stéphanoises who will have to face their neighbors Lyon! Fortunately, we are only at the 5th day of D1 and there are 17 days left to correct the shot and especially out of the red zone.

J5, in a few figures
7 - As the number of goals scored by the current top scorer in the championship, Ada Hegerberg, attacking Olympique Lyonnais.
