Team News

PSG
Nantes
  • Neymar missed out on the midweek win over Orléans and remains a doubt for this encounter.
  • Kylian Mbappé only featured from the bench on Tuesday an should start here.
  • Layvin Kurzawa could start at left wing-back as he works his way back to full fitness.
  • Marco Verratti is back from suspension and should start the match in midfield.
  • Nantes have a clean bill of health having welcomed back the likes of Tatarusanu and Rongier in midweek.
  • The visitors played a strong side against derby rivals Rennes in midweek and aren't likely to rotate much as they try to end the year on a high.
  • Gabriel Boschilia only featured from the bench in midweek but should be back in the XI here.

Prediction

  • This should be an easy match on paper for the leaders, but without Neymar, the hosts must be wary of being too comfortable given Nantes' upturn in form since the appointment of Halilhodzic.
  • That said, while PSG might have had a bit of a scare in midweek, they were also without Mbappé, Verratti, and Neymar. With the former two back in the side, a comfortable home win should ensue.

  • PSG can play with their team upside down (Cavani in the goal and Buffon as the main striker) and the chances of a win is extremely high.

  • @MrNemobody PSG can afford to rest some main players and they'd still win the league. And by rest I mean play with only 9 or 10 players on the pitch :D

  • 4-1

  • psg 4-0 Nantes

  • First defeat for PSG to make Ligue 1 even more competitive than already is!

  • @GioMonaldo yes, because PSG are going to lose to the mighty Nantes at home. what an idiot you are.

  • @uefalona and of course I wasn't being facetious. What a simpleton you are :)
