GOAL! A beautiful chipped finish from Sarabia, PSG make it 3-0! Louza dallies on the ball at the edge of the area and as he's pressed by Dagba, tries to play it back to Lafont. Sarabia intercepts and lifts a delightful effort over the stranded goalkeeper.
85'
Another change from the hosts. Pereira de Sa is on in place of Blas, who looked threatening at times but not consistently enough to cause any real problems for PSG.
84'
R. Pereira De Sa enters the game and replaces L. Blas.
83'
Abeid does well to deal with a curled cross from deep from Bakker, chasing back to nod the ball away with two PSG forwards looking to get on the end of it.
81'
The free-kick is swung into the area but Navas comes out unchallenged to take a simple catch.
80'
C. Dagba gets yellow.
Dagba is booked for a foul on Bamba on the Nantes left.
78'
Louza fouls Ruiz-Atil in midfield. Fadiga wants to hurry things up from a quicky-taken free-kick but none of his team-mates are on the same wavelength, who are more concerned with keeping possession.
76'
Sarabia hits a free-kick straight into the wall from range. It did hit Castelletto's hand, but it was tucked into his body and the ball was hit hard at him.
Minute
Description
75'
There is a note of concern for PSG as Mbappe has gone straight down the tunnel. He didn't look in discomfort but did seem to have a little feel of his hamstring.
74'
B. Fadiga enters the game and replaces K. Mbappé.
L. Kurzawa enters the game and replaces Rafinha.
Mbappe has his goal and now his night is over, replaced by 19-year-old academy product Fadiga.
And now a double change for PSG. Kurzawa comes on in place of Rafinha.
73'
J. Augustin enters the game and replaces M. Coco.
A. Touré enters the game and replaces Pedro Chirivella.
It's a double change for the hosts, with Toure also coming on in place of Chirivella.
PSG academy graduate Augustin comes on for Nantes. He replaces Coco.
72'
Into the final 20 minutes now, you have to think Nantes needed to take that chance if they were going to get back into this as PSG are finding a lot more space on the ball. With the missed penalty and Simon's howler, they should have scored twice.
70'
Penalty saved by K. Navas!
Saved! Bamba puts his penalty to the left but it's at a perfect height for Navas, who beats it away with both hands. Not a good penalty.
Penalty Save Keylor Navas Gamboa
Penalty Miss Kader Bamba
69'
PENALTY FOR NANTES! Blas finds Coco in the area and he's taken out from behind by Diallo as he collects the ball.
67'
M. Coco gets yellow.
Coco is booked for mouthing off to the ref after that penalty decision.
Kolo Muani goes down in the area under a challenge from the substitute Kehrer, but it looks as though he just got to the ball with the outside of his boot.
66'
Marquinhos enters the game and replaces I. Gueye.
T. Kehrer enters the game and replaces Danilo Pereira.
Kehrer replaces Danilo, who has had a good game.
Changes for PSG. Marquinhos comes on for Gueye.
65'
Penalty goal scored by K. Mbappé for PSG!
GOAL! 2-0 PSG, Mbappe from the spot! He places it confidently into the bottom-right corner, and Lafont can't react quickly enough to move.
63'
Bakker fires in a low cross from the left but Rafinha can't connect as he runs onto it and looks to finish left-footed. It wasn't an easy chance - the ball was really travelling as it got to him.
62'
Kolo Muani almost steals a loose ball at the edge of the PSG area but again, Danilo is alert to the danger and keeps hold of possession.
61'
Ruiz-Atil catches Louza late in midfield. PSG look to be readying some more subs.
59'
Blas fires in an awkward low cross from the left and Navas has to be alert, falling to his left to smother the ball after Danilo almost touches it into his own net.
58'
Traore makes a good tackle on Dagba at the edge of the area. The resulting corner is only half-cleared by Louza, but Herrera volleys over on the follow-up.
57'
Ruiz-Atil picks out Herrera with a nice floated pass to the right side of the area. He tries to volley the cross straight in but doesn't quite catch it right, and it's easy for a defender to get across and clear as the ball spins off his boot.
53'
PSG look more threatening since the break. Mbappe almost gets clear down the left as the visitors get men forward in numbers, but Castelletto gets a foot in and concedes a corner.
51'
Rafinha steals the ball inside the area but his shot is deflected behind as he slips. The resulting corner is easily cleared.
47'
Ander Herrera has scored a goal for PSG! Assist by K. Mbappé.
Mbappe gets the assist for an accurate low ball across the box for Herrera to finish.
GOAL! PSG lead 1-0, Herrera opens the scoring! Ruiz-Atil plays a part straight away, holding the ball up on the left and laying it inside to Mbappe. He sweeps it across the box to Herrera, who calmly passes it into the bottom-right corner.
46'
K. Ruiz-Atil enters the game and replaces M. Kean.
The 18-year-old Ruiz-Atil, formerly of Barcelona, is making his fifth appearance in Ligue 1 this season. Will he get his first goal?
45' +3
HALF-TIME: NANTES 0-0 PSG
45' +2
Sarabia goes down just inside the area as he looks to beat the last defender with a stepover, but the referee says no penalty. Moments later, Mbappe bursts in from the left and goes down too, but it looks as though he over-ran the ball and overbalanced rather than being fouled.
45' +1
Two minutes of stoppage time.
45'
We're back underway.
PSG make a change at the break. Kean goes off, Ruiz-Atil comes on.
44'
Rafinha shoots first time with his left foot from the edge of the area, but he leans back and curls well over the crossbar.
41'
Rafinha picks up a loose ball to the right of the penalty area and looks to pick out Mbappe at the far post, but Appiah is alive to the danger and flicks it clear.
39'
Bamba yells out as he hits the deck following a nudge from Sarabia just inside the PSG half, but it was probably his own momentum that caused the fall as much as anything.
38'
Kean is caught offside as he attempts to steal in down the right channel. Abeid and Traore both tracked back to tackle him, with all three on the floor when the flag went up.
37'
Blas tries his luck from range, but his left-footed effort cannons straight into Danilo's backside. He'll be feeling that one when he sits down at half-time.
35'
Blas looks to receive the ball and spin away from Gueye just outside the PSG area, but the former Everton midfielder reads his intention and gets a foot in.
34'
Kean and Abeid are back up quickly, and play continues. Not as serious as it first appeared.
33'
Kean and Abeid are both down after a clash outside the Nantes penalty area. It looks as though Kean caught Abeid with a loose elbow as the pair of them challenged for the ball, but there was no malice in it.
32'
L. Blas gets yellow.
Blas gets the first yellow card of the night from referee Hakim Ben El Hadj for a flailing hand in Danilo's face.
31'
Half an hour in, no shots on target from either side. Nantes should be ahead, though, after that Simon howler.
29'
PSG almost play their way into trouble at the back but Danilo keeps his head and finds a way back to Navas under pressure. He has looked assured in that back four so far tonight.
27'
Mbappe picks up the ball in space on the left again but his final delivery is poor. Traore gets across to head it clear but if he hadn't, it would have landed right in the middle of where Kean and Sarabia had made their runs.
25'
K. Bamba enters the game and replaces M. Simon.
Nantes are forced into an early change. Simon goes off, replaced by Bamba.
24'
Bakker and Rafinha try to combine to find room for a cross on the left, but Nantes get bodies back in numbers and the visitors recycle possession back to defence.
22'
PSG haven't got going in attack yet. There isn't a huge amount of creativity coming from their midfield three.
20'
Mbappe nutmegs Appiah by the left touchline and races towards the area, but his low cross towards Kean is easily cut out.
18'
Diallo heads a corner away from the near post. Nantes are looking the more likely to score at the minute.
15'
Traore bends in a low cross from the left, but Danilo reacts fastest and gets across to boot it clear.
14'
It has been a fairly promising start to proceedings. Nantes are showing some attacking endeavour, so it's not going to be 90 minutes of attack against defence as can be the case with some PSG matches.
10'
The big screen in the Stade de la Beaujoire is now showing a tribute to the late Emiliano Sala. The former Nantes forward would have been 30 years old today.
9'
Blas almost finds Kolo Muani with a chipped first-time ball in behind, but the ball runs away from the forward. It looked as though it might have been reachable before he gave up on it, so perhaps he knew he was offside.
8'
PSG look a little frantic when they get the ball. Mbappe and Sarabia look to link up with some quickfire passing at the edge of the area but they can't find a way through.
7'
Simon fires in a cross from the left, but he pulls the ball back to the edge of the area instead of picking out one of the forwards in the box. There's no Nantes player to pick it up and PSG regain possession.
5'
Kolo Muani leads a Nantes counter-attack after a loose pass in midfield from Rafinha, but the move breaks down as Blas misjudges his flicked pass at the edge of the area. It didn't really require the showmanship he went for.
4'
Sarabia picks up the ball in space on the right and plays it infield to Mbappe, but he's quickly closed down at the edge of the area.
3'
Abeid attempts a long ball over the top down the left channel but it's overhit, and Danilo can watch it safely behind for a goal kick.
2'
Mbappe is fouled as he looks to make headway down the left flank. Hard to imagine that will be the last time tonight.
1'
We're off!
Hello and welcome to our live coverage of this Ligue 1 fixture, as Thomas Tuchel takes his Paris Saint-Germain side to face Christian Gourcuff’s Nantes.
Defending champions PSG are top of Ligue 1 on goal difference, level on points with Lille and Rennes. Nantes are 15th but are coming off the back of a 3-1 win over Brest last Sunday.
SUBS: Thomas Basila, Denis Petric, Roli Pereira De Sa, Ranaud Emond, Jean-Kevin Augustin, Abdoulaye Toure, Bridge Ndilu, Abdoul Kader Bamba.
PSG (4-3-3): Keylor Navas; Mitchel Bakker, Abdou Diallo, Danilo Pereira, Colin Dagba; Ander Herrera, Idrissa Gueye, Rafinha; Kylian Mbappe, Moise Kean, Pablo Sarabia.
The teams are on their way out onto the pitch, and we're nearly ready for kick-off.
NANTES (4-2-3-1): Alban Lafont; Mehdi Abeid, Dennis Appiah, Jean-Charles Castelletto, Charles Traore; Pedro Chirivella, Imran Louza; Moses Simon, Marcus Coco, Ludovic Blas; Randal Kolo Muani.
PSG aren't exactly flush with attacking options on the bench. If somebody does come on to make a difference, it will be one of the youngsters.
That's it from me here tonight. Until the next time, adieu!
The win means PSG are now outright leaders at the top of Ligue 1. Second-placed Lille, three points behind, host Lyon on Sunday evening. Nantes remain 15th with eight points from eight games.
