PSG vs NIC Dream11 MATCH PREVIEW:
PSG host OGC Nice in Ligue 1 on Saturday aiming to improve on a run of just five wins in six games.

Paris Saint-Germain almost sleepwalked towards the defence of their Ligue 1 title. There was never even a doubt about PSG bottling up the league, such was their consistency and the gap at the top of the table. But their recent form is such that it may cost Thomas Tuchel his job in summer.

The former Borussia Dortmund manager was already feeling the heat after PSG’s shock exit from the Champions League, but the real disappointment came with the defeat in the final of the Coupe de France. It means PSG will end the season with just one title this season.

In fact, the Parisians have won just once in the last six games, losing four times in the last four matches. It’s a real worry for Tuchel as the squad seems to be falling apart, not playing as a team.

Against PSG are OGC Nice who are under a new manager themselves, and it’s fair to say that Patrick Viera has brought the club to a position where they can secure European football for the next season.

It may not be a perfect season for Nice but the points tally and position can’t deny the fact that Les Aiglons have made some progress this season. They should better both the points tally and the position of last season.

While in their most recent encounters, Nice have accumulated 11 points from the last six games.

The Ligue 1 match will be played between Paris Saint-Germain and OGC Nice at Parc des Princes, in Paris. The ground has a capacity of 47,929.
