PSG eager to bounce back in Nice after UCL defeat.
As OGC Nice aim to recover from recent setbacks, including a heavy Europa League defeat, they host a formidable but midweek-wounded PSG at the Allianz Riviera, with both sides eager to secure crucial Ligue 1 points.
Nice
A 4-1 defeat for Nice in Thursday’s Europa League clash against Lazio left the club in 30th place in the league phase of the competition. Nice, who are in 9th place in Ligue 1 with 8 points [2W, 2D, 2L] after last weekend’s goalless draw against ten-man Lens, will be looking to bounce back to winning ways this weekend when they host Les Parisiens at the Allianz Riviera.
However, a not-so-impressive record against PSG could leave Nice without a point. The hosts have won only two of their last five games against PSG in Ligue 1 [2W, 0D, 3L], though just as many as in the previous 22 [5W, 0D, 15L]. In addition, Nice have lost nine of their last 11 home games against Les Parisiens in Ligue 1, winning two.
Furthermore, Nice have won only two of their last eight games in Ligue 1 [2W, 3D, 3L], after winning three of the previous four [3W, 1D, 0L]. Franck Haise will be hoping his side can do much better when they welcome PSG to the Allianz Riviera this weekend.
A 4—3—3 formation with Evann Guessand leading the attack may be seen. Badredine Bouanani and Jeremie Boga could team up with the Ivorian. Nigerian forward Terem Moffi remains sidelined with an ACL injury, while Gaëtan Laborde is ruled out with a broken foot.
Paris Saint Germain
Les Parisiens experienced consecutive defeats in the UEFA Champions League this week, with a 2-0 loss to Arsenal. The match saw a spectacular reverse header from Kai Havertz in the 20th minute, followed by a free kick from Saka in the 35th minute that left PSG pointless in the league phase of the revamped competition.
Hoping to put the midweek defeat behind them, Luis Enrique’s side is gearing up for their weekend trip to Nice in Ligue 1, where they have shown dominance. Alongside Monaco and Lens, PSG remains one of the three unbeaten teams, boasting a record of WWWDW.
The French champions have accumulated 16 points, and their superior goal difference is the only factor keeping them ahead of 2nd-placed Monaco. One of their objectives this weekend is to widen the gap with Monaco, as PSG has won seven of their last eight Ligue 1 matches.
Potentially utilizing a 4—3—3 formation, PSG might feature Bradley Barcola, Lee Kang-in, and Ousmane Dembélé in attack. Dembélé, previously omitted from Tuesday’s UCL game, is set to return, though reports of a throat infection after a heated encounter with Luis Enrique could delay his comeback.
