Nantes vs PSG score prediction
PSG have looked utterly formidable so far under Galtier, and it's very hard to see a team stopping them in their tracks unless they are as lucky as Monaco were at Parc des Princes last week.
Nantes are a tough team to beat and there's a reason why they'll be playing Europa League football from Thursday onwards.
Nevertheless, Les Parisiens should have more than enough to overwhelm their hosts on Saturday.
Prediction: Nantes 1-3 PSG
