📊 Form Guide
Nice
DDLDLD ⚠
Nice enter this match coming off the back of a 0-0 Ligue 1 Play-off tied result vs St Etienne.
Nice have been quite ineffective in attack in recent times. Their ‘goals for’ figure equals just 4 against opposition teams during the course of their previous six fixtures. In those games, Nice have also seen the number of goals scored against them total 7.
St Etienne
LLLWDD
The trend of at least one side getting a clean sheet in games featuring St Etienne has become fairly consistent of late. Checking on their last six meetings shows that it has occurred 5 times. During these clashes, their opponents have hit a goal tally of 7 while St Etienne have scored 6. That pattern won’t necessarily follow through into this match, however.
↔️ Head to head
A quick look at their past head to head meetings stretching back to 25/09/2021 shows that these encounters have been a source of anguish for St Etienne. They’ve not been able to come away with any victories whatsoever while Nice have been dominant against them, running out winners in 83% of those games where they have faced each other.
There were also goals galore in those games, with 24 in all at an average of 4 goals per match.
📰 Team News: Nice
Moïse Bombito (Lower leg fracture) and Everton (Ankle injury) won’t be able to feature for Nice gaffer Claude Puel.
🔮 Prediction
We feel that over the course of the game, St Etienne will have a tough ask to break down this Nice outfit who will likely manage to score & go ahead.
We’re therefore anticipating a narrow 1-0 advantage for Nice at the end of this game.
Hopefully it’s a good one.
