Paris SG vs Nimes Predictions and Tips 11.08.2019

Reason for our betting tips:

Ligue 1 (L1) returns as reigning champions Paris Saint-Germain welcome Nîmes Olympique to Parc des Princes. The Parisian heavyweights are unbeaten in seven consecutive L1 opening day fixtures (W4, D3), and have won ‘to nil’ in each of their last four.

Unbeaten in front of their own fans last L1 season (W17, D2), PSG have an outstanding record against Nîmes here in the league (W7, D4, L1). If they win, it will likely be a high-scoring game, as the hosts scored at least three goals in 13 of their 17 home victories last L1 campaign.

Nîmes start their second consecutive season in the top-flight hoping to regain some momentum after losing seven of their previous ten away league fixtures (W2, D1, L7), conceding at least twice on nine occasions. Overall, Bernard Blaquart’s side conceded an average of 2.00 goals per L1 road trip during 2018/19.

‘Les Crocodiles’ have a habit of conceding first on the road, doing so in nine of their ten away defeats last L1 campaign. Furthermore, 70.83% of the goals they conceded across those nine defeats arrived after the break, showing a clear need for improved staying power.

Interesting facts: PSG were leading at half-time in 68.42% of their L1 home fixtures last term (HT: W13, D5, L1).

Last campaign, 73.68% of Nîmes’ away league games featured over 2.5 goals – the division’s second-highest percentage.

Each of the last three competitive H2Hs have seen PSG leading ‘to nil’ at half-time.
