Head-to-Head

📊 The head-to-head clashes between these teams are highly productive. In the last four encounters, three or more goals have been scored.

Paris Saint-Germain Team Overview

🔵 PSG have been dropping points recently: while Luis Enrique's side aren't losing matches, they often settle for draws. Such outcomes have occurred in three of their last four games. The Parisians' current lead at the top of the table is anything but secure, with just a single point separating them from second place.

🔴 Following a commanding 3-0 away victory over Brest, Paris Saint-Germain couldn't overcome Lorient on the road, ending in a 1-1 draw. In that match, the capital club dominated possession with 78% and registered eight shots on target, with an expected goals tally of 1.35, yet they failed to secure all three points.

Nice Team Overview

⚫ Nice have gradually regained their footing after a rocky start to the season, going unbeaten in their last five matches with two draws and three wins. The situation remains challenging in the Europa League, where Les Aiglons have yet to earn a point from three matches. It seems the coaching staff have prioritized the domestic league!

🔴 Following a two-week international break, Nice secured three consecutive victories, climbing to 8th place in the standings. Their gap from the European competition spots has narrowed to just two points. In their latest match, Franck Haise's side kept a clean sheet at home against Lille. After converting an early penalty, Les Aiglons executed a solid defensive strategy, ceding initiative to their opponents before netting a second goal late in the game.

🎩 Matvey Safonov is exploring options for his career progression. In the recent Ligue 1 match against Lorient, the Russian goalkeeper was listed in the squad but once again remained on the bench. This marked Safonov's 22nd consecutive match without playing. By November last season, Matvey had participated in three games.

❌ Désiré Doué will miss the match against Nice after sustaining a serious injury in the previous round, leaving the field on a stretcher. During the game against Lorient, Doué sprinted down the flank and suddenly collapsed, clutching his thigh. The PSG winger was unable to leave the field under his own power. We won't be seeing Désiré back on the pitch anytime soon.

Nice

❌ The participation of forward Moamed-Ali Cho in the upcoming match is uncertain due to a recent injury. The 21-year-old player sustained the injury during the third round of the Europa League against Celta. The situation with Jonathan Clauss is also unclear, as he injured his knee in the match against Rennes. In that game, Jonathan performed admirably, scoring a goal and providing an assist, but unfortunately got injured.

🟨 Referee and Yellow Cards

🟨 Referee and Yellow Cards

The upcoming match will be officiated by François Letexier. On average, over a span of 100 matches, he issues 3.87 yellow cards per game, with 22 fouls. In Ligue 1, over the last 10 matches, the yellow card stats are as follows: PSG average 1 per game, while Nice average 2.3. Both teams have received few cautions this season, so we suggest betting on total yellow cards under 3.5.

⚽️ Goal Prediction

PSG's average individual total in the league is 2 goals per match, while Nice's is 1.6. The goal-scoring patterns for these teams are as follows: the hosts average 2.9 goals per game, and the visitors average 3. Given this data, we recommend considering a bet on match total over 2.5 goals.

🚩 Corner Prediction

In the last ten Ligue 1 matches, PSG have averaged 6.2 corners per game, and Nice have averaged 5.1 over the same period. Both teams favor attacking play and frequently utilize the wings, leading to corner kicks. Therefore, we suggest placing a bet on total corners over 8.5.

PSG are the main favorites this season, confidently moving towards their goal, although they've stumbled a few times recently. Overall, the Parisians display a powerful game, especially when playing at home. Despite Nice having a decent run in the league, they are unlikely to overcome the reigning champions away from home—expect a 3-1 victory for the hosts. Considering how prolific both teams have been this season, we suggest betting on total goals over 3.
