Paris Saint Germain is in first place in the French League 1 anchored by a rock-solid defense (15 goals allowed in 15 matches). That defense is the fourth-best in the 20-team league. The offense just lost key attacking midfielder Neymar Júnior and they're expected to shift the lineup from a front four to a front three for this one. In addition, PSG's offense is down striker Mauro Icardi, midfielder Ander Herrera, attacking midfielder Julian Draxler, plus midfielders Georginio Wijnaldum and Marco Verratti. Third-ranked Nice is in town with an even better defense (12 goals allowed in 15 matches), tied for the best 'D' in the league. They too are dealing with some injuries with a pair of 1-0 defeats in two of their last three. Seven of their last 13 road games have sailed UNDER 3 goals. Nice has tallied just 4 goals in the last seven meetings with PSG and all signs point to a defensive battle. Take Paris Saint Germain/Nice UNDER the total.
