Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) has maintained its lead in the Ligue 1 mid-season standings with a strong showing in recent matches. The French giants have won all their last five games, including victories over Marseille, Monaco, and Bordeaux, which has seen them climb to the top of the table.

The team's impressive form is due to a combination of strong individual performances from key players such as Lionel Messi, Neymar Jr., and Kylian Mbappe, who have been instrumental in PSG's success. However, it's also worth noting that the team's defense has been solid, allowing just two goals in their last four matches.

Another team that has performed well recently is Lens, who sit second in the table after a run of seven consecutive wins. The team's attacking prowess has been crucial to their success, with key forwards such as Jean-Kévin Augustin and Kostas Mitroglou leading the way.

Marseille, meanwhile, have struggled in recent weeks, losing three out of their last four matches. The team's struggles have seen them drop down to third place in the table, but they still have the potential to bounce back with a strong performance.

Monaco, on the other hand, have had a more mixed season so far, but they've shown signs of improvement in recent weeks. The team's midfielders, particularly Jovetic and Gelson Martins, have provided good support for the attack, while goalkeeper David Ospina has kept clean sheets in his last two matches.

Overall, the Ligue 1 mid-season standings show that there are plenty of teams fighting for the title, and it will be interesting to see how the competition unfolds in the coming months.
