Paris Saint Germain to keep away one of their chasers

Paris Saint Germain had to come from behind last Sunday as they were pushed by St.Etienne. To point out, Les Parisiens went down to an early goal in the first half. However, Lionel Messi assisted three times to allow his team another three points. With PSG now 12 points clear at the top of the table, it seems hard for the chasing teams to catch the Red and Blues.

Certainly, PSG’s attacking superstars excelled at home this season where they have a perfect record winning all seven games. Despite facing some fierce opponents, Pocchetino’s team average 2.71 goals at the Parc des Princes. However, with just two clean sheets at home in the league, Pocchetino and PSG  fans will welcome Sergio Ramos’s long-awaited comeback. The Spaniard will play his first match in front of the home fans after debuting on Sunday.

OGC Nice on a high with a fine away record

This is Nice’s best start to a Ligue 1 season after 15 games since the 2016/17 season. Comparatively, in that season the Eaglets had three more wins at this stage. And as they travel to Paris, Nice hope at least a repeat of their 2019 result when they drew 1-1. However, to achieve that, the Eaglets need a superior defensive display which looking at their recent games is encouraging.

To illustrate, the away goals average conceded by Nice this season is less than a goal a game, 0.8. Moreover, Christophe Galtier’s team’s defensive record on the road is better than that of at home. Furthermore, Nice are enjoying a two-match away winning streak which will boost their confidence ahead of this crucial trip. In fact, Nice have collected more points in away games than at home.

Paris Saint Germain vs OGC Nice Prediction

Maurizio Pocchetino will make sure his team doesn’t lose focus and keep their 100% record at home. While Nice want to stay in the top four and maybe challenge for a Champions League spot. Hence, both PSG and Nice will be after the points on the table.

Surely, Nice’s defense will be asked a lot of questions in this match. And their resilience is key to deciding the outcome of this match. Moreover, the last time the Eaglets got away from Parc des Princes with a point was in May 2019 when they drew 1-1.

Certainly, a similar result will be welcomed by coach Galtier, however, Nice conceded nine goals in three matches since that draw by PSG. Hence, and with all the attacking quality at PSG and considering their scoring record at Parc des Princes,  we will back PSG to score two or three goals in this match.

In the last six Nice’s away games, under 3.5 goals were scored. As a result for our second prediction, we will back a double chance combined with under 3.5 goals.
