Match Preview

In the upcoming rescheduled match of the 32nd round in Ligue 1, Nice will go head-to-head against PSG at the Allianz Riviera. This game carries huge significance for the hosts, as securing a victory would greatly improve their chances of contending for a Champions League spot. On the other hand dropping points would almost completely ruin their chances. As for the visitors, PSG, their season has already been finalized as they won the French championship, but their failure to advance to the Champions League final has left them with a sense of unfulfillment.

Injuries and Suspensions

Nice will be missing only Sofiane Diop for the match. The midfielder, who was acquired from Monaco for 22 million euros a year and a half ago, has been sidelined due to injury for the past four months.

As for PSG, there have been no recent changes in their list of injured players. Presnel Kimpembe, Sergio Rico, and Theo Hernandez remain unavailable. Additionally, Kurzawa has been absent from the squad for a considerable period due to disagreements with the coach.

H2H

In their last 10 encounters, PSG emerged victorious 6 times, while Nice claimed victory only twice, with 2 matches ending in draws. However, in recent times, the hosts have been putting up a commendable fight against the French Champions. In 4 of their last 5 meetings, they managed to score against the French champions. Bookmakers have set the odds at 1.22 for Nice to score.

Trends

A total of less than 3.5 goals has been played in 16 of Nice's last 17 home matches.
PSG have not lost on the road in 15 consecutive matches in Ligue 1.
PSG scores and concedes in 5 consecutive matches in Ligue 1.

Fouls

Nice has surprisingly impressive statistics in terms of committing fouls. On average, their players commit 11.1 fouls per game, while also earning the same number of free kicks. Additionally, the team receives an average of 3.7 yellow cards.

In matches involving PSG, there are slightly fewer fouls committed (10 compared to 8.3). Furthermore, warnings are not as frequent for the Parisians, with only 3 yellow cards per game. Therefore, it's reasonable to expect that the total number of yellow cards will easily fall below 4.

Corners

The hosts aren't leading in set pieces, evident from their average of 9.1 corners per game, with 4.7 taken by Nice players.

On the contrary, Paris Saint-Germain excels in this aspect, leading all teams in Ligue 1. They earn an impressive 7.6 corners per match, with a total of 11.8. Bookmakers offer odds of 1.69 for PSG to have more individual corners by at least 4.

Team Overview

As the season nears its conclusion, Nice has shown remarkable solidity in their recent performances. With 5 consecutive matches without defeat and just 3 goals conceded, they've proven to be a formidable opponent. Bookmakers offer odds of 1.74 for PSG to score less than 1.5 goals individually.

Conversely, Paris Saint-Germain's defensive form has been concerning. They haven't managed to keep a clean sheet in their last 9 games and have struggled to secure victories in their last 4 matches. The likelihood of Nice avoiding defeat is reflected in the odds at 1.56.

Scores24 Prediction for Nice vs Paris SG

The issue of motivation in this confrontation comes to the fore. Nice will certainly play number one and will be able to take advantage of the fact that this game does not solve anything for PSG. But the factor of the Parisian star attack is worth considering. As with the fact that they score in 8 away matches in Ligue 1 in a row. We believe that even the Parisian stars who have solved all the issues will do their job. Our bet is the total of PSG goals more (1.5).
