Stats

Nice have won 7 of their last 10 home matches (Ligue 1).
Nice’s Evann Guessand has scored 11 goals in 27 matches (Ligue 1).
Nantes have lost their last 3 away matches.

HTH

Nantes have an 18-12 advantage against Nice with 14 draws in 44 matches.

They last met in October, the game ending in a 1-1 draw in Nantes.

Nice Form

Even though they had a great start in March and defeated St Etienne 3-1 away from home, Nice have hit a rough patch since then, claiming just one point from next three top flight games.

The Eaglets first lost to Lyon 2-0 in front of the home crowd, while grabbing just a point against Auxerre 1-1 in the follow up clash, Evann Guessand finding the net in the first half.

After the international break, Nice were ahead at half-time against Monaco, Jeremie Boga breaking the deadlock, but conceded twice in the second period and lost the encounter 2-1. Dante was sent off in stoppage time.

Nantes Form

Nantes secured just three points from their last four Ligue 1 appearances and once again got dangerously close to the relegation battle, sitting in 13th place four points above red line.

After suffering back to back defeats in early March against Marseille 2-0 and Strasbourg 1-0, The Canaries outplayed Lille 1-0 in front of the home crowd, Mostafa Mohamed scoring late goal where they had one-man disadvantage, Jean Castelletto being sent off.

In their most recent appearance, Nantes found equalizers two times against Le Havre but ultimately fell down to Le Havre 3-2.

Team News

Tanguy Ndombele is the only injury concern for the home team, while Melvin Bard and Dante are suspended.

Nantes have a lengthy injury list at the moment, Marus Coso, Tino Kadewere, Nathan Zeze, Pedro Chirivella, Alban Lafont and Fabien Centonze being sidelined. Jean-Charles Castelleto is suspended.

Predicted Starting Lineups

Nice: Bulka, Bombito, Ndayishimiye, Abdelmonem; Clauss, Rosario, Santamaria, Abdi, Guessand, Laborde, Boga

Nantes: Lopes, Amian, Sow, Pallois, Cozza, Lepenant, Douglas Augusto, Thomas, Abline, Simon, Mohamed

Verdict

Nice v Nantes

This is a perfect chance for Nice to end the winless run and claim important points in the UCL race. Nantes struggle on the road, so a home win is the best bet in France. Home top scorer Evann Guessand is also backed to score.
