Bad atmosphere inside the club

PSG’s attentions revert to going unbeaten in a top-flight home campaign for the second time in three seasons. Their last L1 outing here marked a fifth home league win in six since the start of February, with all five producing at least one goal in the 15 minutes immediately before half-time.

In a reflection of just how dominant PSG have been en-route to another title, over half (nine) of their previous 16 winning L1 scorelines at home this season have been enough to overhaul a handicap of -2 goals against them.

Players to watch: Both of the hosts’ last two L1 home wins have come via a 3-1 scoreline, the first of which saw Ángel Di María account for the last two PSG goals on the day.

Stat attack: Four of PSG’s last five L1 home matches have produced a goal (either way) in the final 15 minutes of regular time.

The PSG finds the Parc des Princes for the first time since its title of champion of France, but also its defeat in the final of the Coupe de France, against the OGC Nice this Saturday afternoon and it is once again a Parisian team strongly handicapped by the absences that will arise. Thomas Tuchel was in front of the press this Friday and he notably listed the players already fixed. Thiago Silva, Thomas Meunier and Thilo Kehrer will not make their comeback as their coach has already announced, while Kylian Mbappé will continue to serve his suspension.

Two other players are also uncertain for the match as the German coach explained: "Kurzawa did not train yesterday and we have to wait today. With Edi (Cavani), we must also wait. The rest, I hope and I think they will be available tomorrow against Nice. Marco Verratti looks good for the service. Relaunched a few minutes later on a Cavani who played the final last Saturday but was not present Tuesday, it completes: "I count on him, but if he is back ... He was not there in Montpellier . He did some training before Montpellier but he was not there. Hes going to train today but I do not know if hell be with us tomorrow. We have to wait. "

Present in press conference on the eve of PSG / Nice, Thomas Tuchel had listed the absent players but also the two uncertain of the Parisian group that were Layvin Kurzawa and Edinson Cavani. The last practice before Saturdays match (5pm) was two hours after the press conference and the Parisian coach was able to see Layvin Kurzawa and Edinson Cavani on the Camp des Loges training grounds. is already a good point. However, no trace of Choupo-Moting, out of injury in Montpellier but not listed in the wounded for PSG / Nice by his coach so far.

Only a minor miracle can get OGC Nice into Europe for next season, and they are winless in eight top-flight visits to the capital. Their hosts’ tireless approach also marries well with the fact that Nice have lost the second half in five of their last six L1 away games against PSG.

It seems as though Nice’s success on the road hinges on the first goal. From the seven occasions they have scored first in away league matches this term, Nice have retained 17 of a possible 21 points – while recovering just two away points from a possible 24 after conceding first.

Albeit on home turf against inferior opposition, Youcef Atal netted a hat-trick for Nice in his last league outing, scoring his last two goals between the 61st-75th minute of play.

Seven of Nice’s last nine matches have produced under 1.5 match goals.

Four of the last five league H2Hs have seen one team win the first half to-nil.

OGC Nice coach Patrick Vieira has selected a group of eighteen players for the trip to the Parc des Princes to challenge Paris Saint-Germain on Saturday afternoon (5 pm) as part of the 35th Ligue 1 day. Mickaël Le Bihan is back in the Aiglons group. On the other hand, six packages are to be deplored: Christophe Jallet (injury to a calf), Wylan Cyprien (injury to the adductors), Gautier Lloris (sprained knee), Lamine Diaby-Fadiga (sprained ankle), Myziane Maolida (re-athleticization) and Rémi Walter (re-athleticization).
