Current champions PSG are in a bit of a personnel pickle but, with an 11-point gap between them and second-placed Nice in the league, the Coupe de France seems oddly like the priority tonight.
Wijnaldum and Neymar are injured while Achraf Hakimi, Abdou Diallo and Idrissa Gueye are still over at the Africa Cup of Nations. Angel Di Maria, Leandro Paredes, Keylor Navas and Marquinhos may not feature either having spent the weekend on international duty in the Americas.
Instead, this is a chance for fringe players such as to impress manager Mauricio Pochettino.
Nice, on the other hand, have a full roster of players at their disposal. There are no injury concerns and all players have returned from AFCON 2022. Opportunity knocks. Make sure you know how to watch a Paris Saint-Germain vs Nice live stream from anywhere.
