Nice - LDWDWW
There is just the sole fitness concern for the Nice boss Francesco Farioli to be concerned about from an otherwise fully-primed set of players. Alexis Beka Beka (depression) won’t play.
It seems likely that Les Aiglons look set to go for a 4-3-3 system in the match with Marcin Bulka, Jordan Lotomba, Jean-Clair Todibo, Dante, Melvin Bard, Morgan Sanson, Y. Ndayishimiye, K. Thuram-Ulien, Mohamed-Ali Cho, Terem Moffi and Jeremie Boga.
Nice, following on from their previous result, will be hoping for more of the same after the 1-0 Ligue 1 triumph over Havre AC.
In that game, Nice had 58% possession and 13 attempts at goal with 6 on target. The only player to score for Nice was Jérémie Boga (12'). Havre AC got 11 shots on goal with 2 on target.
Francesco Farioli's Nice have hit the target 10 times over their past half-dozen outings. The tally of goals that have been scored against them in that same time amounts to 5.
Going into this encounter, Nice are unbeaten in their last 2 home league matches.
Paris Saint-Germain - WWDLLL
PSG boss Luis Enrique has to currently contend with reduced team options. Sergio Rico (Fitness), Presnel Kimpembe (Achilles tendon rupture) and Lucas Hernández (Cruciate ligament tear) won’t be making appearances.
We reckon that Les Rouge-et-Bleu appear most likely to begin the game with a 4-3-3 lineup, settling for Gianluigi Donnarumma, Achraf Hakimi, Marquinhos, Lucas Beraldo, Nuno Mendes, Vitinha, Warren Zaire-Emery, Fabian Ruiz, Ousmane Dembele, Kylian Mbappe and Bradley Barcola.
Since a loss in their previous game against Toulouse in Ligue 1 action, PSG will be aiming to make amends here.
In that match, Paris Saint-Germain had 64% possession and 15 attempts on goal with 3 of them on target. The scorer for Paris Saint-Germain was Kylian Mbappé (8'). Toulouse had 18 attempts on goal with 5 on target. Thijs Dallinga (13'), Yann Gboho (68') and Frank Magri (95') scored for Toulouse.
Looking at their form, and PSG have been scored against in 6 of their last 6 games, letting opponents get 10 goals in total. In defence, Paris Saint-Germain could really do with shoring things up.
Coming into this contest, Paris Saint-Germain are undefeated in their last 22 away league matches. Amazing.
Nice possible starting lineup:
Bulka; Mendy, Todibo, Dante, Bard; Sanson, Rosario, Thuram; Boga, Moffi, Cho
Paris Saint-Germain possible starting lineup:
Donnarumma, Hakimi, Marquinhos, Beraldo, Mendes; Zaire-Emery, Vitinha, Ruiz; Dembele, Mbappe, Barcola
Prediction: Nice 1-1 Paris Saint-Germain
After failing to keep clean sheets in three of the preceding four matches at the Allianz Riviera, Nice have prevented Lorient (3-0) and Le Havre (1-0) from scoring, even if the opposition's struggles should be considered. Nevertheless, the Eaglets' motivation to secure a coveted European berth should see them avoid defeat against a PSG side expected to be at full strength again.
