PSG will go up against Angers this coming Friday for a Ligue 1 meeting.

Sitting top of the table, PSG claimed 72 points after 31 rounds, while Angers have amassed 14 points. This ranks the latter as number 20 in the Ligue 1 before the next round.

The atmosphere at Angers must be close to dreadful, as they have four defeats from their last six games across all tournaments. An improved performance, paired with a bit of luck, is needed in their next game to turn the situation around.

Angers scored six goals, conceded 19 and fought their way to two clean sheets in their previous ten matches.

Angers vs PSG Prediction

Angers Form

Consistency has not been a trademark for Angers recently, and their last three matches first saw them sharing the points in a 1-1 draw with Nice. This was followed by a 1-0 win against Lille, before they lost 2-1 against Clermont Foot. Angers claimed just a single measly home win from a possible six in the Ligue 1, which also saw them drawing two and losing three matches, in which they scored five and conceded nine goals.

PSG Form

In their last three matches, PSG lost against Lyon by 0-1, beat Nice by 0-2 winning 3-1 against Lens. PSG performed a very admirable four wins in six Ligue 1 away matches, drawing none but losing twice as well. They scored 11 times, while also conceding six goals.

Going forward, Angers and PSG are both in decent form, while at the same time being generous in defence. We are confident, both teams will find the back of the net on Friday.

PSG claimed eight wins from 21 goals scored and seven conceded in the previous eight encounters with opponents from the bottom six of the Ligue 1. This earned them a total of 24 points. Angers claimed three wins, five draws as well as 23 defeats in the Ligue 1 this season. PSG are looking at 23 wins, three draws and five defeats in the Ligue 1.
