Caen take on the visitors Nice at “Stade Michel d'Ornano” in the gameweek 13 of the French Ligue 1. The match will be played Caen on Sunday, November 19th.
This season Caen are remarkable for their nine-clash series during which only one side scored goals in each fight, thus, Caen recorded four clean-sheets together with five defeats, having not scored a single goal since the 16th of September. The team was thrashed 0:5 by Marseille on the road in the previous round. Despite that lopsided failure, Caen are currently sitting on the seventh place in the standings with 18 points gained and 8-13 goal difference after 12 encounters played in the Ligue 1. The side got four victories and 12 points with five goals for and four goals against in six home battles.

After the outstanding last season, Nice fail this season in the Ligue 1. The 1:0 triumph over Dijon in the latest matchday allowed Lucien Favre’s team to break six-game run of defeats with 4:15 aggregated in all the tournaments which had lasted since the 1st of October. At this point the club has just come out from the relegation zone and settles on the 15th position in the elite division table with 13 points taken and 14-19 goal difference. The away statistics of “Les Aiglons” is horrible as the side managed to gain only three points with single goal for and nine goals against in five encounters played on the road.
Caen have not been beaten by Nice across three recent head-to-heads. The upcoming hosts show defensive football in this season and it do it perfectly well. I believe that Caen won’t change it philosophy in the Sunday clash and consequently, there won’t be many goal scored.
Prediction for the match: Under 2.0 scored goals.
