The capital club has returned to the country's top division after a notable break. They could have done this a little earlier, but only last season did they collect enough points. Now, however, they look quite competitive in Ligue 1, with an equal number of wins and losses, staying near the top of the table (despite starting with two defeats). Against Lens, they also failed to get points—ending 1-2.

Our Prediction for Paris FC vs Nantes

The capital club has returned to the country's top division after a notable break. They could have done this a little earlier, but only last season did they collect enough points. Now, however, they look quite competitive in Ligue 1, with an equal number of wins and losses, staying near the top of the table (despite starting with two defeats). Against Lens, they also failed to get points—ending 1-2.

The more experienced opponent from "Stade de la Beaujoire" finished last season in 13th place with 36 points, confidently avoiding any excessive nervousness in the fight for survival. But they started with three losses in their first four matches, then followed by a series of draws. After the international break, they lost to Lille without much chance, 0-2.

The Ligue 1 newcomer scores 1.63 goals per match, conceding an average of 1.88. Luís Castro's team plays a more pragmatic style: 0.63 goals scored and 1.13 conceded on average.
