Paris FC host Nice in Ligue 1 at the Stade Jean Bouin on Sunday, 30 August 2026, with both sides seeking a first victory after opening goalless draws and clean sheets.

Paris FC avoided defeat against Nice in both league meetings last season, including a 1-0 home win in March, and will aim to extend that record.

Liam Rosenior's team opened with control on the ball, posting 59% possession and 89.28% pass accuracy, while creating seven attempts. Les Aiglons also began with a shutout, seeing 60% possession and firing in 17 open-play crosses at 17.65% accuracy, signalling a clear supply from wide areas.

Availability could shape selection. For Paris FC, Nanitamo Ikone, Nhoa Sangui and Emmanuel Mbemba are sidelined. Les Aiglons are without Laurent Abergel and Moïse Bombito through injury, and Elye Wahi is suspended.

Routes to goal may hinge on midfield craft versus width. Ilan Kebbal, Pablo Pagis and Lassine Sinayoko could carry Paris FC's threat between the lines and in transition, backed by Kevin Trapp's experience after a clean sheet. For Les Aiglons, Jonathan Clauss and Sofiane Diop may drive the flank-and-cutback pattern, with Gauthier Hein offering support in advanced areas.

Both teams sit on one point in 12th and 11th. A win would move either to four points and could lift them up the early standings. Paris FC then visit Marseille, while Les Aiglons host Le Mans before trips to Auxerre and a home date with LOSC.
