Nice v PSG: Preview and Predictions

Aron Wright - March 16, 2018

Nice vs Paris Saint Germain
France – Ligue 1
Date: Sunday, 18th March 2018
Kick off at 12:00 UK/ 13:00 CET
Venue: Allianz Riveria (Nice).

There are four games on Sunday in Ligue 1 so this match gets the early kick off and it should be a very interesting one in the south of France when Nice take on PSG.

PSG laboured to a 2-1 win over Angers on Thursday night whilst Nice could rest for the week. There’s no doubt that PSG will become champions again and in all honesty it’s just a matter of time. PSG have the best away record in the league where they have lost just 2 games away all season. They have also conceded the least goals away from home with 10 so far.

Nice will be concentrating on 5th place and they are just a point from that, and that position could become a European finish if PSG as expected win the Coupe de France. Nice’s form is good, they have gone unbeaten for 4 games and come into this one with back to back wins, their last game being a superb 5-2 victory away to Guingamp.

At home they have recently lost to Toulouse and drew against Nantes and have lost 5 games overall this season. Nice have the 6th best home record.

Nice v PSG: Head to Head

• The last time the teams met here Nice won 3-1
• There have been 23 goals in the past 6 meetings
• Since 2004 there has been just one match that finished 0-0 when playing in Nice

Nice v PSG: Prediction

Even though PSG have injuries, are away from home and are facing a quality side like Nice they are as low as 1.30 to win. Just like the Angers game we should use the handicap betting in the oppositions favour. But are main bet will be to see goals in this game.
