Nice preview: Neglected Nice
The neglect of Nice by ownership group INEOS has the southerners sitting just fourth from bottom ahead of this weekend's round of fixtures, albeit with an eight-point lead over the relegation playoff places in Ligue 1.
The southerners did manage to end their six-match winless run of form in Ligue 1 last week, easing to a 2-0 victory at Stade Raymond Kopa against Angers with goals from defender Malvin Bard and striker Elye Wahi.
Paris Saint-Germain preview: Peaking PSG
Paris Saint-Germain hammered Chelsea by three goals to nil at Stamford Bridge in midweek, completing an 8-2 aggregate victory as they continued the defence of their UEFA Champions League title.
Despite not playing last week, PSG managed to stay at the top-of-the-table with Lens stumbling against Lorient but the French champions are just one point clear at the top, albeit with a game in hand.

Nice vs Paris Saint-Germain prediction
Treble winners PSG are in danger of no silverware this term but there is also a feeling that, just at a similar time as last season, they are peaking once again at the exact right time under Luis Enrique. Nice got a confidence boosting victory last week but will likely be no match for the visitors, even if PSG do rotate quite heavily, as is to be expected.
