Goal Statistics

A PG of 2.1 is decent for Paris Saint-Germain in their clash with Nice, as is their run of scoring 1 goal or more in 97 consecutive Ligue 1 matches.

Paris Saint-Germain's defensive record is very strong, L. Martínez García's men having conceded 1 or less in 7 consecutive Ligue 1 games. An underwhelming PG rating of 1.3 for Nice makes sense in this context.
