Betting on the PSG vs. Nice Match

Bookmakers have already given their predictions for the game, with the hosts considered clear favorites. A bet on PSG to win can be placed, while a bet on Nice's success is also available. The odds for a draw in the upcoming match are also provided.

PSG

The Parisians easily overcame the previous rounds of the French Cup: defeating Feignies Aulnoye (3-0) in the Round of 64, and Vannes (4-0) in the Round of 32. PSG is the most decorated club in the tournament's history, having won the trophy 14 times. Notably, the Parisians have won 6 of the last 7 editions of the French Cup. PSG boasts an incredible 44-match unbeaten streak in regular time in the national cup (41 wins, 3 draws). The capital club has reached the tournament final 7 consecutive times, setting a competition record. In the decisive match of the previous edition, PSG defeated Monaco 2-0.

Unavailable: Abdou Diallo, Keylor Navas, Angel Di Maria, Achraf Hakimi, Idrissa Gueye, Marquinhos (on international duty), Georginio Wijnaldum, Neymar (injured).

Nice

The club also started their journey in the tournament from the Round of 64, defeating Cholet 1-0. In the previous round, Nice advanced automatically: they were supposed to face Paris or Lyon in the Round of 32, but their match was abandoned after the first half due to disturbances, resulting in both teams being disqualified, and Nice automatically advancing to the Round of 16. The club from the French Riviera has won the French Cup 3 times, with their last trophy coming in 1997. In last year's tournament, the team was eliminated in the Round of 32, losing to Monaco (0-2).

Interesting Bets Based on Statistics

  • PSG has won the second half in 7 of their last 8 French Cup matches.
  • At least 2 goals have been scored in the first 45 minutes of 5 of PSG's last 7 French Cup matches.
  • Nice has scored in 6 of their last 7 French Cup matches.

PSG vs. Nice: Match Prediction

The Paris club is the undisputed favorite for the upcoming match. Not only does PSG have an impressive unbeaten streak in the French Cup, but they also have a solid lead in the league standings over their nearest rival, which happens to be Nice. The Parisians have lost just one match in the current Ligue 1 season (16 wins, 5 draws), and at home, they are unbeaten in 14 matches in this tournament, winning 13. PSG is consistently the most prolific team in the league, having scored 46 goals in 22 matches.

As for Nice, they also have a decent scoring record this Ligue 1 season (36 goals) and are one of the most reliable teams defensively, conceding 18 goals (the same as PSG). Nice's head coach Christophe Galtier knows how to play against the Parisians, as his Lille team dethroned the capital club last season. In the current league campaign, the opponents have already met in the first round, with PSG unable to break down Nice's defense, resulting in a 0-0 draw, despite PSG dominating and creating numerous scoring opportunities.

I expect a similar scenario in the upcoming match, as the capital club excels at home. Moreover, Nice has not beaten PSG since 2017, spanning 8 encounters (all in the league). Additionally, Christophe Galtier's team has not been as defensively solid as they were at the start of the season, conceding in 12 of their last 15 Ligue 1 matches.

Therefore, my prediction for the match is PSG Individual Total Over 1.5.
