Another disappointing result away from home at Lorient meant reigning champions PSG were left winless for the fourth time in six league games. However, despite their sluggish form, they remain undefeated on home turf, losing just one point at Parc des Princes this season.
Nice have been enjoying a good run of results as well in the league, as they remain unbeaten in five outings, including a current three-match winning streak. Franck Haise’s men have the momentum in their favour and could very well spring an away upset.
Expect a hard-fought encounter to take place in Paris, with both sides needing a victory to fuel their respective objectives this season.
