Ligue 1 leaders Paris Saint-Germain travel to the south of the country to face third-placed Nice on Saturday night.

Mauricio Pochettino's side boast a 15-point lead at the top of the table and are likely to rest some players ahead of their midweek trip to the Bernabeu to face Real Madrid in the last 16 of the Champions League.

Nice vs PSG latest odds

The most recent meeting between these sides came five weeks ago in the Coupe de France with Nice holding the Parisians to a goalless draw before triumphing on penalties.

Earlier this season at the Parc des Princes, the league encounter saw Nice claim a point in another 0-0 draw.

A third stalemate in as many months between these teams is priced at 3/1 (4.00) with bet365 with the hosts offered at the same price, and PSG at 4/5 (1.80).

Nice vs PSG first goalscorer

It remains to be seen how a strong a side PSG field given their European hopes will be on the line on Wednesday night.

Kylian Mbappe and Lionel Messi are both offered at 7/2 (4.50) to score first, but perhaps Mauro Icardi is more likely to start and the Argentine striker is offered at 9/2 (5.50).

Meanwhile Nice's top scorer is Amine Gouiri and the former Lyon forward is priced at 15/2 (8.50).

Nice vs PSG preview

The hosts come into the clash boasting the best defensive record in the division having conceded just 21 goals in 26 matches.

Christophe Galtier's side have kept 10 clean sheets in the league this season and are the only team to have kept PSG from scoring at the Parc des Princes in 11 months.

With the visitors likely to be focusing on their upcoming Champions League showdown in Madrid, this is a great occasion for the side from the Cote d'Azur to claim another result against their illustrious rivals from the capital.

PSG, meanwhile, have scored just a solitary goal in four of their last five away games and opposing a high-scoring game this weekend could be of interest.

Nice vs PSG tips & predictions

Under 2.5 goals is offered at 6/5 (2.20) and has paid out the last two clashes between the teams, while opposing PSG to score over 1.5 goals at evens (2.00) could also appeal.
