PARIS (Reuters) - Paris St Germain suffered a double injury scare when they warmed up for their Champions League clash at Arsenal with a 2-0 home win against Nantes in Ligue 1 on Saturday. PSG, who play at the Emirates Stadium on Wednesday with top spot in Group A at stake, are second in Ligue 1 with 29 points from 13 games, behind leaders Monaco on goal difference. Third-placed Nice, who also have 29 points, will reclaim the lead if they avoid defeat at St Etienne on Sunday. Angel Di Maria netted the first goal, his first in Ligue 1 this season, in the opening half before limping off with a suspected thigh injury. PSG are already without influential midfielder Adrien Rabiot for the Arsenal game after the France international was injured with the national team earlier this week.
