NAN Vs PSG Dream11 Team Match Report, Probable Playing 11 And Overview: Nantes’ plight set to remain intact when they face off against league leaders PSG.
On a two match losing spree at the moment, Nantes couldn’t have asked for a worse period to take on PSG. It’s a horrid period for them to take on the table toppers given their vulnerabilities in defence particularly, ones which will see them be pummelled by a vicious PSG attack.
The side ended up falling apart in an edge of the seat thriller against Rennes the last time around. In a match which kept persistently switching hands, Nantes lost their way at the wrong stage as their defence failed to rise to the occasion to allow Rennes to pull off a 3-2 tie from the day.
The defeat saw them lose their bearings to slip into 9th place in the league, a position that doesn’t look to be their home for long. With them squaring off against PSG side which decimated Montpellier 5-0 the last time around, the hosts are coming across an extremely stern test, a side who are bound to systematically outshine them to pull off yet another three points in their kitty.
Probable Winner
Extending their lead atop of the points tally to 12 points with their third win in a row the last time around, PSG once again epitomised the clear difference in quality between them and the rest of the sides in the league. And although they are reeling with injuries at the moment, the myriad players prevelant in their ranks will suffice to guide the side through to yet another win.

After pulling off a cleansheet which had evaded them for quite some time now, it was only befitting for us to venture into the encounter with Keylor Navas from PSG. He was at the forefront of the side’s shut down against Montpellier, a player who acted as the true custodian of his side’s goal.

The three goals for Abdoulaye Toure see him come in as well alongside two goal man Imran Louza to wrap up our set of selections from the side.
Elsewhere, it’s just the singular pick from PSG for this one with Marco Verratti being our option for the outing.

Kylian Mbappe was seething after being substituted the last time around, but with Neymar out for this one, Mbappe should get to play the full 90 minutes here. And with him being PSG’s leading scorer with the 14 goals and 4 assists this season, the striker becomes our first pick for the outing.
The nine goals and 2 assists for Mauro Icardi see him being brought into our component as well for the contest while from the home side, we will be completing our unit with Moses Simon who has three goals and five assists this term.
