Monaco vs Nice Prediction & Betting tips
When speaking of the Cote d’Azur, one usually thinks of sun, beaches and the sophisticated life with champagne for the upper 10,000. Football is also played on this stretch of coast, usually relatively to very successful. For years, the clubs AS Monaco and OGC Nice have been leading.
The principality team has usually been a better team in recent years, but currently the tide seems to be turning completely. The Monegas apparently have only two options: title or relegation battle. This year, ASM is back in the basement of Ligue 1 after a catastrophic start to the season.
There was no victory for the Monegasque this season. After six games, the team of Leonardo Jardim is only on the penultimate place. Speaking of trainers. The Portuguese coach seems to be on the brink of failure, but in the derby against Nice, he should probably get a final parole chance.
The guests should go on Tuesday favored in this encounter. The OGC is in third place with twelve points from six games and can be very pleased with the recent performance in the new season. Due to the significant differences in form of these two teams in the derby between Monaco and Nice, the forecast clearly goes in the direction of the guests.
Between these two places are just 20 kilometers. Therefore, many guest fans will travel with them and try to make this game a home game of their team. In general, the mood between the two teams is not really hostile. The climate should still be rougher, especially in the Principality, should fit in the game between Monaco and Nice a tip on an away win.
That could mean that Leonardo Jardim has his last working day as coach in Monaco on Tuesday. He should use the last chance, because according to reports, there is already a successor ready. The kick-off for Matchday 7 in Ligue 1 between AS Monaco and OGC Nice at Stade Louis II takes place on 24.09.2019 at 20:00.
Monaco:
Leonardo Jardim was released on October 11, 2018 after four years as a coach in Monaco. His successor, club legend and world champion Thierry Henry, was able to hold only three months in office, was released and Jardim returned. A good year later, the Portuguese’s second commitment to the Principality seems to be drawing to a close.
With Leonardo Spalletti and Claude Puel are already potential successor rifle by foot. It is not surprising, because next to bottom Dijon Monaco is the only team that has not made a win this season. Three draws and three defeats from six games are a disastrous result. Thus, Monaco ranks in the table of Ligue 1 on a relegation zone.
The team seems unsettled and desperately in need of a sense of achievement, because the team from the Principality still has a lot of individual quality. Only the team is currently unable to retrieve these on the field. Maybe she also plays a bit against the coach, whose commitment after a second release in Monaco this time probably would end there forever.
Monaco visited Stade Reims on the weekend. In the current situation you may be satisfied with a goalless draw. To climb in the table, but that is not enough. With a defeat in the derby threatened in this English week even the crash to the bottom of the table. Nevertheless, the bookmakers, in the derby between Monaco and Nice, at least in the odds, the home side slightly ahead.
Maybe the bookmakers can not realize this crash of the Monegas yet really, because with this squad actually more should be possible.
Leonardo Jardim remains combative before the game against Nice. He makes it clear again that he is still in line with the club bosses and confirms that he still feels the support.
The personnel situation continues to have dramatic traits. Islam Slimani, Wissam Ben Yedder, Pietro Pellegrini, Benjamin Henrichs, Danijel Subasic, Willem Geubbels and Stevan Jovetic are all injured. Nevertheless, Leonardo Jardim will be able to send a team of high quality and a lot of experience to the pitch.
Nice:
It does not seem too far-fetched that the crew of OGC Nice will hear a lot in the future. The team of former superstar Patrick Vieira is very young and highly accused. Nevertheless, Nice came very successfully into the season and on the way to establish itself in the top group.
Four wins and two defeats are the current record in Ligue 1. Setbacks must always be taken into account in a team that is still so young. Therefore, the bankruptcies at home against Marseille and in Montpellier were not a broken leg. Especially against seasoned, experienced teams OGC had his problems so far.
On Tuesday, the Elf of Patrick Vieira in the derby could prove the opposite. We think the time might be right to win in Monaco. After all, Nice has made two of three away games victorious this season. That could be an indication that in the match between Monaco and Nice we favor a forecast for an away win.
Last Saturday, Nice celebrated a hard-fought home win over bottom-runner Dijon at home. However, the guests went after about 20 minutes only once in the lead. Kasper Dolberg was able to compensate immediately. Shortly after the break Youcef Atal was with the 2: 1 winner to the spot. At the end of the day, although it was tight, but highly deserved that Nice introduced this victory.
A better home debut Kasper Dolberg could not have wished. In the transfer period, the Dane has changed from Ajax Amsterdam to Nice for around 20 million euros.
This too is a clue as to where the journey from OGC should go. The attacker still does not see his team at the limit, but the chosen path promises short-term success.
An old friend from the Bundesliga will probably be missing in the derby. Dante, who is now captain in Nice, will probably have to pass due to an ankle injury. Gautier Lloris, Ibrahim Cisse, Christophe Grelle and Remi Walter are among them. So it will be on Tuesday, the young savages in the squad of Patrick Vieira have to judge.
