Three in a row? PSG, which hosts OGC Nice on Friday September 15 (9 p.m.), on the fifth day of Ligue 1, will try to take control of the French championship. To do this, it will be necessary to sign a third consecutive victory (3-1 against Lens and 4-1 in Lyon), after 15 days of international break. It remains, however, to know the state of form of Kylian Mbappé. The star did not participate in the defeat of the Blues in Germany (2-1), in a friendly on Tuesday, due to knee discomfort.

To hope to overtake Monaco in the standings, the Parisian attack will have to break through the current best defense in the championship, Nice having conceded only two goals. With the top three and Rennes, the Gym is the fifth undefeated team at the start of the season. But the Aiglons have only won once, against Strasbourg (2-0). A convincing victory, certainly, but repeating such a performance at the Park will be a completely different story.
