- Venue: Parc des Princes (Paris)
The Parisian giants will be eager to protect their unbeaten record in Ligue 1 when they take on top-four contenders OGC Nice in Friday’s Round 31 clash.
Although they have already clinched their fourth consecutive Ligue 1 crown, PSG will be aiming to make history as the first-ever club in the country to complete an entire league season unbeaten, with their current sparkling record showing 24 wins and six draws from 30 outings.
While PSG shift their focus to other battles, OGC Nice have quietly strengthened their bid for a top-three finish by eking out a hard-fought 2-1 win against Angers SCO at the Allianz Riviera last time out, trimming the gap to third-placed AS Monaco to just three points.
Paris Saint-Germain vs OGC Nice Betting Tips : AH2 (+1.5)
Given that the Ligue 1 title is already in the bag and with eyes firmly set on the upcoming UEFA Champions League showdown with Arsenal, Luis Enrique is likely to rest key players and deploy a mixed squad, offering OGC Nice a promising window to snatch valuable league points. After enduring a barren run between March 9 and April 12 where they scraped together just two points from a possible fifteen, Les Aiglons finally snapped their slump with a vitally-important 2-1 triumph over Angers, so they’ll aim to carry that renewed momentum into Friday’s clash hoping for another positive outcome. What could serve as a morale boost for OGC Nice is their respectable track record at Parc des Princes, having snatched at least a point in three of their last five Ligue 1 outings there and even celebrated a dramatic 3-2 victory on this ground during the previous campaign. However, it should be noted that OGC Nice were among the select few to hold PSG this term thanks to a 1-1 stalemate on home turf in the earlier meeting, and with Paris Saint-Germain possibly keeping one eye on their heavyweight showdown with Arsenal, this could open the door for Les Aiglons to capitalize and move within striking distance of a Champions League berth with a solid performance on Friday.

OGC Nice team news
Centre-back Moise Bombito and midfielder Tanguy Ndombele will be the only absentees for OGC Nice in Friday’s league match as they continue their recovery from injuries.
It’s highly likely that coach Franck Haise will field the same side that secured an important 2-1 win over SCO Angers in their last league outing, hoping this group can deliver another strong performance against PSG.
