Nice take on the visitors Bordeaux at “Allianz Riviera” in the matchday 18 of the French Ligue 1. The game will be played on Sunday, December 17th.
After a disastrous start of the season, Nice are taking on their pace. The team has lost only three out of 10 latest clashes with two of these defeats recorded in the Eurocups plus earned two draws and five triumphs. Lucien Favre’s side has a quite successful last week: the club got 2:1 victory over Nantes in the Ligue 1 and then beat Lille 2:1 by penalty shoot-outs in the Coupe de France, having promoted to the quarter-finals of the tournament. After 17 battles played, “Les Aiglons” settle on the eighth place in the elite division standings with 23 points taken and negative 22-28 goal difference. Nice participated in nine encounters conducted at their own turf in the Ligue 1, having gained 13 points with 16 goals for and 16 goals against in them.

Unlike Nice which are taking on their pace, Bordeaux stay currently in a deep crisis as the team managed to deserve only one victory, two draws and seven defeats in 10 clashes played. The club comes up to the next game with three-match losing streak: 2:3 vs. Dijon, 0:3 vs. Strasbourg and 0:2 vs. Toulouse. “Les Girondins” haven’t scored any goal for 234 minutes of football already. At the moment Bordeaux sit on the 14th position in the Ligue 1 table with 20 points earned and 22-26 goal difference. The side picked up only six points with 10 goals for and 17 goals against in nine fights conducted on the road. The team’s away losing run counts for six battles with 4-14 aggregated score.
Taking into consideration the rivals’ current shape as well as the home-field factor for “Les Aiglons”, I consider them to be the favourites for a victory and three points in the forthcoming clash.
Prediction for the match: Nice to win.
