Reigning champions and current Ligue 1 leaders PSG travel to the Stade de la Beaujoire to face a stumbling Nantes side.
Nantes ended their shambolic run of form with a crucial victory against Toulouse last week. The Canaries are 12th in the table and will have a daunting task lying in front of them as they cross swords with the record champions of France.
PSG dismantled Real Sociedad in the second half of the first leg of their Round of 16 Champions League tie during the week as Kylian Mbappe and Bradley Bracola were on the scoresheet. The French heavyweights are looking sublime domestically as well as they are 11 points clear at the summit of the Ligue 1 table.

The headline surrounding Luis Enrique's men would be about French superstar Kylian Mbappe with the 2018 World Cup winner reportedly destined to leave the club at the end of the campaign.
If Mbappe's decision to leave the club is final and his transfer saga could finally come to an end, the club veteran would be vying to say goodbye on a high and continue his goalscoring form domestically and in Europe this term.
The injury-absentees for the reigning champions include Sergio Rico (head), Presnel Kimpembe (Achilles), Nuno Mendes (hamstring), Layvin Kurzawa (back), and Milan Skriniar (ankle).
