St Etienne vs Nice Prediction & Betting tips
Earlier this year, AS Saint-Étienne was played away for a long time in-house by Olympique Nice, but AS Saint-Étienne still won 3-0. Can Olympique Nice take revenge on Wednesday evening?
AS Saint-Etienne:
Under Claude Puel, AS Saint-Étienne had not lost until last weekend, but after two draws in Ligue 1 and the Europa League, Puel’s team also failed to score a point against Stade Rennais. Loïc Diony had given ASSE the lead within twenty minutes, but thanks to a quick equalizer and a goal in the second half injury time, Stade Rennais managed to grab the three points. With the first defeat in eight league matches, Verts dropped to the shared seventh place, only two points behind the number three, Angers.
AS Saint-Étienne has been disappointing in the offensive in the last few weeks. In the last five games in Ligue 1, Les Verts scored a total of only eleven shots, six of which actually scored a hit. In the same five games, a total of six hits were collected and won only once, meaning that there is actually no longer a good form in Saint-Étienne.
Olympique Nice:
With a 3-1 win over Angers, Olympique Nice has again taken the necessary distance from the relegation zone. Prior to the last round of the game, les Aiglons had only two points ahead of the relegation zone, but by turning a 1-0 deficit at home into a 3-1 win, that lead has now grown to five points. The backlog on the left-hand row is also just a point, so the team of Patrick Vieira seems to be allowed to look up again in the ranking with a new victory.
At the start of the season, Les Aiglons did not come up with a difficult score, but with nine goals in the last five games, the vanguard is currently in good shape. Kasper Dolberg, Pierre Lees-Melou and Wylan Cyprien all came in three to two hits in the last five games and it is therefore not surprising that Dolberg and Cyprien are currently the top scorers of their team in the Ligue 1 with both four hits. Dolberg in particular seems to be in good shape with two hits in the last two games, but can he also score three games in a row for the first time since May 2017?
