Each team's starting lineup from their previous match in this tournament is listed.
PSG
The reigning champions extended their winning streak in Ligue 1 to five matches with a 3-0 victory over Toulouse in the last round. PSG continues to lead the French championship standings, with a six-point gap over their closest rival. PSG remains the only unbeaten team in the current Ligue 1 season, with their unbeaten run in this tournament now at 14 matches (12 wins, 2 draws). Luis Enrique's side also tops the list of the league's best home teams, having won all six matches with a total goal difference of 20:4.
- Both teams have scored in 7 of PSG's last 10 matches in the French top division.
- At least 3 goals have been scored in 9 of PSG's last 12 Ligue 1 matches.
- The club has scored at least three times in 7 of their last 9 home league games.
Nantes
The team suffered their fourth consecutive defeat in Ligue 1, losing 0-2 to Le Havre in their previous match. Nantes' winless streak in this tournament has now reached nine matches (3 draws, 6 losses). Due to this poor run, the team has slipped into the relegation playoff zone in the French championship standings, dropping to 16th place. Additionally, Nantes has failed to keep a clean sheet in nine Ligue 1 matches, conceding at least twice in the last four.
- There have been goals at both ends in 8 of the team's last 10 matches in the French championship.
- The club has won with a handicap (+2.5) in 12 previous matches in this tournament.
- There was a goal in both halves in 4 of the team's last 5 away Ligue 1 matches.
PSG vs. Nantes: Match Prediction
The most decorated club in the tournament is currently unstoppable this season and is on track for another trophy. It's unlikely that one of the main outsiders of the current championship can pose any challenge to the leader. Nantes has lost to much weaker opponents in previous Ligue 1 matches, and in the last round, they even managed to lose without scoring to one of their main rivals in the fight for survival – Le Havre. Moreover, the hosts will be eager to delight themselves and the home crowd with a bright performance and victory after their midweek 0-1 defeat to Bayern in the Champions League.
I do not see any intrigue in the upcoming match; PSG should win comfortably. They have defeated Nantes by at least a two-goal margin in 5 of their last 6 Ligue 1 meetings. Therefore, my prediction is PSG with a handicap (-1.5)
