Paris Saint-Germain hosts Nice in round 35 of French Ligue 1. The match will be played on Saturday, May 4th at Parc des Princes (Paris)
The end of PSG season is far from satisfactory. The Parisians not only lost to Rennes in the French Cup final but won only 1 of the last 5 matches in Ligue 1. However, the winner of the championship has been known long time ago. PSG players simply lack motivation at the finish of the season. Therefore, the team’s results are not surprising. Moreover, Tuchel’s men experience very serious problems in defense. The country's most scoring club scored just 12 goals in the last 6 games. Of course, the fixture is high, but the team had scored an average of almost 3 goals per game before. And now the Parisians have to break into the intense defense of Nice without a key forward.

Nice scored 3 goals in its last match. Thus, in this season, it is the first game for the Eaglets, where the attack showed its best. However, they should not delude themselves, because they met with the worst team in the league. Before the match with Guingamp, Nice didn’t manage to score either Rennes or Caen. Moreover, the Eaglets have “smashed” only 5 goals in 11 previous games. And in total, Nice has 26 goals in 34 games of Ligue 1. The team scored 10 goals in 17 away games. It is depressing statistics for the erstwhile bronze medalist of the French Championship.
PSG showed the awful defensive play in the last matches, conceding 2 goals or more. However, now the Parisians can even keep a clean sheet. They will host one of the offensively weakest French clubs, which scored only 1 goal in the last 6 away matches. Nevertheless, Nice doesn’t fail defensively and conceded only 30 goals in 34 games of Ligue 1. Only Lille defends better in the French championship. PSG can’t count on Mbappe, who was disqualified for rough violation in the cup final. The participation of Neymar, who hit the fan, is also questionable. At the same time, Tuchel still saves Cavani and didn’t field him in the game with Montpellier. The absence of Mbappe will have a serious impact on the attacking potential of PSG, moreover, the Parisians are unlikely to score and 2 goals to Nice without the other two forwards. Therefore, under 4.0 goals scored is a good-looking bet for this match.
Prediction for the match: Under 4.0 goals scored
