The French league leaders continue their quest for the title this weekend, as PSG will be looking to stretch their eleven-point advantage at the summit when they come up against Nantes. But, could the hosts upset the odds in Ligue 1 on Saturday?
Ligue 1 Preview
It has been another professional campaign in the French top-flight for PSG this term, as they have already breezed eleven points clear at the top of the standings after winning 15 of their opening 21 matches this term. They come into this latest match in fine recent form after winning four of their last five, and they boast the best attacking record in the competition after netting 51 times already this term.
Nantes will be the home side this weekend, as they look for a vital victory in their pursuit of a finish in the top half of the standings. The French side have suffered three defeats across their last five matches, but they managed to get their campaign back on track last weekend with a fine victory.
Nantes got their season back to winning ways on the road against Toulouse last weekend. The 2-1 success marked their first victory since December, and it was also the first time that they had scored two or more goals since October. However, they have already suffered five home defeats this term, which is just one fewer than they managed in the entirety of last season.
PSG have picked up 50 points already this term in the league, which is just one fewer than they had achieved at this stage last term. It is also the ninth time in the 21st century that a side from France have suffered no more defeats in Ligue 1 at this stage.
Nantes vs PSG Head to Head
Nantes have conceded at least once in each of their last 30 matches against PSG across all competitions. In fact, their last clean sheet in this fixture was achieved in February 2006. Draws have been a rarity when these sides have met, with none of the last 24 ending level.
Nantes vs PSG Prediction
All the trends point to a straightforward victory for the away side this weekend, as PSG have scored an average of 2.5 goals per game against Nantes. A comfortable win for the visitors looks likely.
