OGC Nice are back for some midweek action as they take on league champions PSG in the 32nd game of the season. It's an important game for Nice, as they hope to keep their European spot until the end of the season, but for PSG, the game plays little significance as they are already champions of the league.
From the league table, OGC Nice are currently 5th with 54 points and a win would put them just 1 point behind 4th place Stade Brest. While PSG are top of the table with 70 points.

OGC Nice are going to be playing for their dreams when they take to the pitch to face PSG. It's always a difficult contest because PSG are the best team in the league by a mile, but there's no reason why OGC Nice can't be positive of winning. Nice have been good in their last 5 matches and their results were: 3 wins and 2 draws. And their overall season record is: 15 wins, 9 draws and 8 defeats.
OGC Nice extended their win streak last weekend by beating Le Havre at home by a single goal. They got the early goal through Jeremy Boga in the 12’ minute and it was all they needed to take all 3-points in the end. According to the stats, Nice had 56% possession, 6 shots on target and 6 corner kicks
Paris Saint Germain
For PSG, it's all but over in the league race as they were crowned champions a couple of weeks ago. Unfortunately, their failure to progress into the final of the UEFA Champions League had a bigger influence on the team despite their Ligue 1 heroics this season. PSG's performances in the last couple of games had been below par and the results showed they had 2 wins, 2 draws and 1 defeat in their last 5 games. And their overall season record is: 20 wins, 10 draws and 2 defeats.
PSG's last game against Toulouse ended in a defeat, which wasn't much of a surprise since they had won the title, but it points to a poor mood around the club at the moment. They were beaten 3-1 at the Parc de Princes by Toulouse. Kylian Mbappe got the opening goal in just 8 minutes and Toulouse got the equalizer in the 13th minute. And then in the 68’ and 95’ minutes, Toulouse scored 2 more goals. According to stats, PSG had 64% possession, 3 shots on target and 4 corners.
Head to Head
According to the h2h, in the last 20 meetings between both clubs, PSG won 13 games, OGC Nice won 4 games and 3 games ended in a draw.
Analysis and Predictions
OGC Nice seem to be the only team with a credible reason to want all 3 points from this game. For PSG, not so much. But after their last defeat at home, they wouldn't want another defeat here.
OGC Nice are without a clean sheet in the last 4 meetings and 4 of the last 5 meetings ended with less than 4.5 cards. 5 of the last 6 meetings ended with less than 10.5 corners.
