PSG welcomes OGC Nice this Wednesday evening at the Parc des Princes for the quarter-finals of the Coupe de France. A match to follow live on our site.
This season, Paris Saint-Germain is still in the running to win all the competitions in which it participates. The Coupe de France, of which the capital club is the record holder for victories with 14 trophies, is obviously one of them. For this quarter-final, it is Nice which stands in front of the Parisian ogre. Luis Enrique is wary of this team.
“We will try to control an opponent that we know well, who is having a great season, despite some doubts recently. But we know their potential, it’s a team that defends very well and knows how to attack, it’s difficult to take the ball from them. Difficult, difficult”, warned the Spanish technician at a press conference, who will be deprived of injured Marquinhos, Skriniar, Kimpembe, Kurzawa and Asensio.
Nice, already executioner of PSG this season
This season, Nice is the only team to beat PSG in Ligue 1. It was last September. A double from Kylian Mbappé and the saves from Gianluigi Donnarumma were not enough to avoid a defeat (3-2) on the Riviera.
“We had to watch extracts 3 or 4 times, confided the Aiglons coach, Francesco Farioli. It’s a match that has stuck in people’s minds, but it’s in the past. This time, we will find a different team who will be keen to take their revenge. Recently, they preserved a lot of starters to prepare for this match against us, so we will do everything to get to the semi-finals and continue in this competition that we all really care about. »
