Monaco welcome Nice on Saturday in the Ligue 1 clash

PSG blew a chance to move closer to the top when they played league leaders Monaco last week. The Parisians are still in third place and three points behind the top of Ligue 1 and now face a trip to Dijon, who are unbeaten in their last four league games.

Monaco have been playing like a title winning side, lately, and have refused to slip up. They will face another tough test this week when they take on second-placed Nice on home turf. Nice have also been in top form this campaign and are currently level on points with Monaco, separated only by goal difference.

Mario Balotelli continued his outstanding form this season with another goal in his side’s 3-1 win against Guingamp last weekend.
