Ligue 1 Match Preview: Nantes vs PSG
FC Nantes:
The Canaris is in great form this season, even though they are placed 10th, they are enjoying a good run in the league. After booking their place in the Coupe de France semi-finals with a 2-0 win over Bastia last Thursday, Nantes again clinched all three points in their Ligue 1 clash against 10-man Reims. In their last 5 matches, Nantes won 4 and lost only 1. Kombouare will be aware of the threats that PSG is likely to pose. But these previous results can motivate his players this weekend as they aim to extend their winning home run to five matches.
Paris Saint-Germain:
PSG is coming into the action after a nerve-wracking 1-0 win over Real Madrid. The 90 min goal from Kylian Mbappe boosted their qualification chances into the quarter-finals of the Champions League. PSG are currently unbeaten in each of their last 15 league games, but three of their last four away fixtures have ended as 1-1 draws against Lens, Lorient, and Lyon. Paris Saint-Germain is now 13 points clear of Marseille and is comfortably leading the table.
