PSG Vs NIM Fantasy Team Probable Playing 11 And Match Report: PSG once again lose steam in the hunt for the title.
After a dream start to life at PSG, Mauricio Pochettino finally saw his honeymoon period at the French club come to an end. The manager tasted his first defeat in the Ligue 1 as his side faltered in a five goal thriller against Lorient.
Although the win is not one which will massively perturb Pochettino, for PSG’s aspirations of retaining the title, it was a calamitous result. With Lille and Lyon both winning their fixtures at the weekend, the 3-2 defeat for PSG saw them slip into third place.
The side will be out for redemption come today as it strives to get back to winning ways when it locks heads with Nimes.

Fantasy Team Picks
Goal-Keeper
Baptiste Reynet was quiessential to his side’s 2-1 win against Marseille, one which finally snapped his side’s horrid losing string.
Defenders
They have not been at their conventional defensive best this season but PSG do look likely to pull off a cleansheet today. They are up against the second worst attacking unit, a Nimes side which has a measly 17 goals to its name.
It will see us repose faith in the trivalent of Colin Dagba, Mitchel Bakker and Presnel Kimpembe.
Midfielders
Having recorded six assists for his side, Angel becomes the first pick from the home side. Idrissa Gueye and his ability to do the dirty work at the back sees him form the attacking and defensive partnership from the side.
Nimes’ top scorer with a staggering four goals to his name, Renaud Ripart becomes the first part of the trio from the club. Zinedine Ferhat has contributed the most number of goals with the three goals and three assists to his side’s cause.
Niclas Eliasson with the two goals completes the set of picks from the visiting team.
Strikers
PSG’s top scorer, Kylian Mbappe as ever retains his place in our setup for today with striker Moise Kean giving him company for the outing.
Captain And Vice-Captain
His 14 goals and 6 assists make Mbappe our captain while Angel is the vice-captain.
