Nimes vs Dijon Prediction & Betting tips
Nimes Olympique takes on Saturday night in the own Stade des Costières against low flyer Dijon. Earlier this season, the PhD student won no less than 4-0 at Dijon, but can there be a good follow-up in his own house?
Nimes Olympique:
On Nantes’s visit, Nîmes Olympique faced a 2-0 deficit last weekend after half-play and appeared to be in the making a big loss, but a very strong second half with four goals from four different players led to a 4-2 victory. Because of the fifth victory in this season, the PhD candidate is now at the top of the right-hand row with 33 points after 24 games, with remarkably more points from away games than home games. In twelve home games, very balanced results were achieved in the form of four victories, four draws and four defeats, while on the move not only won five times, but also twice played and lost five times.
Despite the fact that Nîmes Olympique scored 35 times this season (and also scored 35 goals), Bernard Blaquart’s team does not have an absolute top scorer this season. Both Rachid Alioui, Denis Bouanga and Clément Depres scored four times this season and together they are the top scorers of the PhD student. A key player knows Les Crocodiles in the form of Téji Savanier. The midfielder was already involved in nine goals this season (two goals, seven assists) and was already involved in 32% of his team’s passes this season. Also against Dijon the Frenchman was decisive with the assist on the tying goal, but in his own stadium the midfielder is seasonally more active in attacking, so we probably should expect more from him against Dijon.
Dijon:
In the first two away games of this season, Dijon won from Montpellier and Olympique Nice, but since then the out-of-the-way team from the mustard city can be called dramatic. Out of the last ten away games, only three points were caught (three draws) and was lost no less than seven times. Likewise in the last four away games in which not once was scored by the team of Antoine Kombouaré. Last weekend, in the home game against Olympique Marseille, the opening goal was scored, but in the second half Dijon disappointed on the defensive and offensive level, resulting in a 2-1 loss and Dijon having a lead of just one point on the relegation zone , but has played a match less.
Like the opponent of this weekend, Dijon has no goalgetter this season. In fact, topscorers Mehdi Abeid and Júlio Tavares only managed to find the net three times this season in the Ligue 1, the least often of all league top scorers of the Ligue 2. In addition to the fact that scoring this season is difficult for the team from the mustard city , where Kwon Chang-Hoon, the star player of last season, has not found his form this season, proves to be very difficult this season. On average, more than one and a half hits are collected per match, a number that is only surpassed by low-flyer Amiens and last-minute En Avant Guingamp and often guarantees many loss points.
