Team Analysis
PSG has enjoyed an almost unbeaten journey this season, with victories characterising their campaign. Yet, a surprising 1-3 setback against Toulouse in their most recent match dealt them their second loss of the season. They'll try to restart their run of undefeated matches on Wednesday.

The 1-3 downfall to Toulouse marked only their fourth defeat in their last 20 matches played across all competitions.

Owing to their superb form, PSG has managed to secure their place at the top of one of world football's top-tier leagues. They currently command a six-point lead over second-placed Monaco. PSG's potent firing line, spearheaded by French striker Mbappe, has consistently hit the goal-mark at an extraordinary rate.

Nice comes off a narrow 1-0 win over Le Havre in their latest encounter, thereby extending their run of matches without defeat to five. Nice has successfully scored in nine out of their last ten games across the board.

Head-to-Head
In their most recent encounter, PSG secured a 3-1 victory, granting them three wins in the last four matches. PSG has netted 11 goals in their last four matches against Nice. Impressively, PSG has managed to stay undefeated in eight out of their last ten face-offs against Nice at this venue, winning all eight of them.

Odds Analysis
Nice, riding on a two-match home league winning streak, might prove to be a challenging opponent for the visiting side. However, statistical evidence leans heavily towards an away team victory, and we anticipate them to ensure a smooth triumph.

Further, PSG has conceded goals in five of their previous six away matches while they managed to notch up 18 goals during the same period. This offensive might suggests their capability to register three goals against Nice. Hence, a projected 3-1 victory for PSG serves as a suitable correct score prediction for this match.

Additionally, owing to PSG's offensive prowess, we anticipate a total of over 2.5 goals, an occurrence that has been seen in a majority of their recent home matches. Considering our expectation of both sides scoring, combining the tip of over 2.5 goals and both teams scoring seems like a plausible choice.

Pick: Over 2.5 goals & Both teams to score
