Nimes vs St Etienne Prediction & Betting tips
On Friday, 26.10.2018, the opening match of the eleventh matchday in Ligue 1 will be played by Olympique Nimes. AS Saint-Etienne. While Nimes is waiting for a win for eight matchdays, Saint-Etienne was able to settle last in the top third. Wins and defeats alternated with draws in regularity. Whether “Les Verts” can continue to establish at the top or whether the climber a liberation succeeds, we will see on Friday. Kick-off is at 20:45 in the Stade des Costières.
Nimes:
After a good start of the riser with two wins right at the beginning followed by a long-lasting losing streak. A total of eight games could not be won. Four draws face just as many defeats. It is not surprising that they have slipped into the danger zone of the league. Currently, they are ranked 15th with a goal balance of 13:18 and ten points from ten games. Thus, the lead in 18th place has shrunk to just one point. Up to 19th place, the first real relegation place, there are still four.
Nimes has been without a goal since the last four league games. So it’s time to score again. The possibilities have not been missing. The last away game Nimes lost against Lyon with 0: 2. But in the game Nimes surprised the spectators. You played with more than 40% ball possession more than twice as many chances and was also field superior. A good performance was not rewarded again. The last home game against Reims ended 0-0. In the game Nimes was again the better team. 64% possession, more chances to score, and also the field superiority was to be recognized.
St. Etienne:
“Les Verts” ranked sixth after the last two games without a win. With a gate balance of 12:13 and 16 points, they still breathe in the European places. But looking down is also advisable, as ninth place is only three points away. A win against the promoted should therefore be retracted as possible.
In the last home game against Stade Rennes they did not get beyond a 1-1, before they lost to OSC Lille with 1: 3. These two games thus ended the series of three wins in a row, which were retracted against Caen, Toulouse and Monaco. It is striking that Saint-Etienne has the worst storm and the third worst defense of the best eight teams in Ligue 1. So is the Gasset team a little overvalued, and betting on the hosts would be the better bet for the match between Nimes and Saint-Etienne?
