Match Preview
Nantes host Paris Saint-Germain at the Stade de la Beaujoire on Sunday, 17 August, in a clash that sees two teams at opposite ends of the form spectrum. Nantes have struggled recently, recording three consecutive losses before bouncing back with two wins, while PSG are in solid shape, boasting a five-match unbeaten run. Historically, this fixture has been competitive, with both teams winning four times in their last ten encounters, indicating that Nantes can pose a challenge despite their current form.
A key angle to consider is Nantes' defensive vulnerabilities, which have been evident in their recent matches. They have conceded in seven of their last ten meetings with PSG, and with the visitors' attacking prowess, particularly with players like Kylian Mbappé and Neymar, the likelihood of both teams scoring seems high. The odds reflect this, with "Both Teams to Score" priced at 2. Given Nantes' need to secure points at home and PSG's offensive capabilities, this match could see an entertaining contest with goals from both sides.
