Paris Saint-Germain welcome Nice to the Parc des Princes for a Ligue 1 match this Saturday.
PSG are currently in their usual spot at the top of Ligue 1, but there are numerous teams chasing them, with five being two or fewer points behind them. Nice, however, are not one of those teams, as they are in 8th place right now.
So can PSG blow off some cobwebs with a win here, or will Nice produce an upset?
Paris Saint-Germain vs Nice Head-to-Head and Key Numbers
- Paris Saint-Germain's recent record against Nice is not as dominant as some fans might think. PSG have beaten Nice in three of their last six meetings, but they have also lost to them twice, including their most recent clash in April.
- PSG will come into this match on the back of a surprising result that saw them draw with promoted Lorient on Wednesday evening. PSG were unable to find a winner despite having almost the entire second half to do so, with the result being their third draw this season.
- Nice, on the other hand, picked up one of their best wins of the season this week by beating Lille 2-0. This win was their third in a row in Ligue 1, and they are now unbeaten in their last five league games.
- Despite dropping some points in surprising fashion this season, PSG's defence at least has been fantastic. They have conceded just nine goals in their first ten matches, with new keeper Lucas Chevalier recording five clean sheets.
- While Nice's form hasn't been bad at all this season, they have not done so well in away matches. The only side they've beaten in the league away from home is Rennes, and counting European games, they have lost five on their travels.
Paris Saint-Germain vs Nice Prediction
Given Nice's strong run of form in recent weeks, Franck Haise's side may be confident of giving PSG a real test here.
However, the reigning champions have still only been beaten once this season, and will probably be smarting following their draw with Lorient this week. This means that they may want to send a message here.
Given Nice's struggles in away matches, then, this should be a good way for PSG to bounce back with a dominant win.
Prediction: Paris Saint-Germain 2-0 Nice
