Paris Saint-Germain will be aiming to make it four wins on the spin in Ligue 1 when they take on Angers at the Stade Raymond Kopa on Saturday night.
Luis Enrique's team have opened up a six point lead at the top of the table and already look nailed on to notch up another French crown.
Last time out, PSG maintained their unbeaten start in Ligue 1 this season with a narrow 1-0 win over Lens.
However, a potential disaster in the Champions League could be looming for the French heavyweights after Wednesday night’s 2-1 defeat at home to Atletico Madrid left them sitting outside of the top 24 in the table at the halfway stage of the new-look league phase.
Meanwhile, Angers have sparked into life in Ligue 1 by lifting themselves out of the relegation zone with a pair of wins over both St Etienne and Monaco.
In fact, Alexandre Dujeux have avoided defeat in each of their last four league games, however it will take a herculean effort for them to extend that run to five matches when the champions come to town.
How the bookies view it: Plain sailing for PSG
Unsurprisingly, PSG are lowly 2/11 favourites on Betano to bank all three points on Saturday night.
Angers pulled off a huge shock by winning away at Monaco last Friday night but the bookmakers are not anticipating another giant killing this weekend, with a home win trading at 21/2 (Betano) while the points being shared at the Stade Raymond Kopa is also considered unlikely at 11/2 (Betano).
Head to head: Anguish for Angers
Angers have come away empty-handed from each of their last 17 encounters with PSG. The Black and Whites have not picked up a single point in this fixture since a 0-0 draw way back in December 2015.
Players to watch: Barcola in sparkling form
No player has scored more goals than Bradley Barcola (8) in Ligue 1 this season, making the French forward an attractive option to strike anytime on Saturday night at 7/5 on Bet 365.
Jean-Eudes Aholou grabbed a goal in each of Angers’ aforementioned wins over St Etienne and Monaco. The Ivory Coast midfielder is as big as 14/1 on UniBet to net for the third game running.
Predicted line-ups
Angers have been boosted by the return from suspension of right-back Lilian Raolisoa, however the hosts again look set to be without injured duo Cedric Hountondji and Jacques Ekomie.
Goncalo Ramos, Lucas Hernandez and Presnel Kimpembe are all long-term absentees for PSG.
Angers: Fofana; Arcus, Biumia, Lefort, Hanin; Aholou, Belkhdim; Niane, Abdelli, El Melali; Dieng
PSG: Donnarumma;; Hakimi, Marquinhos, Pacho, Mendes; Zaire-Emery, Vitinha, Neves; Dembele, Asensio, Barcola
Anything else catch the eye?
The aforementioned Bradley Barcola looks overpriced to be on the receiving end of at least one foul on Saturday night at 8/11 on Paddy Power.
The PSG forward has drawn a foul from the opposition in four of his last five outings in Ligue 1.
Last weekend, Barcola was fouled on no fewer than three separate occasions against Lens.
Thus, the French international looks worthy of interest to earn his side at least one free-kick at the Stade Raymond Kopa on Saturday night.
