PSG vs Nice: The Eagles will be able to score at least once

PSG will host Nice in round 16 of Ligue 1. Who will be the stronger of the two sides in this encounter? Get a taste of the teams’ form and decide what you should bet on. There are several options for you to bet on!

PSG

PSG are solely at the top of the table in the French championship. With 40 points, the Parisians have a big 12-point gap to second-placed Rennes, so the championship question is practically solved. On the other hand, the Champions League is another matter where the side with such a squad has collected only eight points in five rounds. However, they qualified for the playoffs ahead of schedule. After a 1-2 defeat at the hands of Manchester City, PSG secured an away win against Saint-Etienne 3-1, losing Neymar, who will now miss around eight weeks.

Nice

Nice are classy this season. Their ambitions are being fulfilled, and they are in contention for the European title. In the run-up to this round, the Eagles are in third place in the standings with 26 points. As for their recent encounters, Nice have been winning and losing in four games in a row. First, they beat Angers 2-1, then lost 0-1 to Montpellier and 2-1 to Clermont before losing sensationally to Nice 0-1 last time round.

Expert Betting Tips

PSG are understandably favourites to win every Ligue 1 fixture. That’s not surprising at all, and there’s no doubt the Parisians will win. Another thing is that Nice are far from being gutless - there’s a reason they’re in third place. We think that the Parisians will score three points without any problems, but the visitors will also reply with at least one goal. As a bet, we suggest just an exchange of goals.
