The Ligue 1 is back in action with another round of matches this weekend as PSG lock horns with Nice on Saturday. PSG have an excellent squad at their disposal and hold the upper hand going into this game.
Nice are in third place in the Ligue 1 standings and have consistently punched above their weight this season. The hosts eased past Versailles by a 2-0 margin in the Coupe de France and will need to work hard in this fixture.
PSG, on the other hand, are at the top of the league table at the moment and have improved after a slow start to their campaign. The Parisians defeated Saint-Etienne by a 3-1 margin last week and will be confident ahead of this match.
