Saturday's Ligue 1 predictions including Angers vs. Paris Saint-Germain
French Ligue 1 – Matchday 16: Angers vs. PSG
Title race intensifies!
Paris Saint-Germain will be looking to extend their lead at the top of the Ligue 1 standings when they travel to face Angers on Saturday. The Parisians are currently five points clear of second-place Lens, and a win would see them take a significant step towards retaining their title. Angers, meanwhile, are in 11th place and will be looking to cause an upset against the league leaders.
Angers' recent form
Angers have won just one of their last five league matches, and they come into this game on the back of a 3-1 defeat to Monaco. However, they have a good record at home this season, having won three of their last four matches at the Stade Raymond Kopa.
PSG's recent form
PSG have won their last four league matches, and they have not lost a game in Ligue 1 since August. They will be confident of beating Angers, but they will need to be wary of the home side's threat on the counterattack.
Team news
Angers are without injured midfielder Sofiane Boufal. PSG have no major injury concerns, but Lionel Messi is a doubt after missing training this week with a minor injury.
Prediction
PSG are the clear favorites to win this match, but Angers have shown that they can be dangerous at home. However, the Parisians should have too much quality for the home side, and they should be able to secure a comfortable victory.
Predicted score: Angers 0-3 PSG
Suggested bets
– PSG to win and over 2.5 goals – Kylian Mbappe to score anytime – Angers to score in both halves
