Prediction: 2-1
St Etienne
Nantes will be looking to take advantage of St. Etienne’s poor form when they meet in this round 6 Ligue 1 clash. Les Canaris have experienced mixed results recently, but with home advantage and their opponents struggling, they will feel confident heading into this encounter. Nantes will be without the likes of Behereba Guirassy, Florent Mollet, Fabien Centonze, and Adel Mahamoud due to injuries, but they still possess enough quality to get the job done.
St. Etienne, on the other hand, head into the match following an embarrassing 8-0 defeat to Nice in their previous match. To make matters worse, they have a growing list of absentees, with Boakye, Wadji, Macon, Bentayg, Briancon, and Monconduit all missing out. Their shaky defence and lack of squad depth are likely to be exposed once again, especially against a Nantes side eager to secure three points. Given St. Etienne’s recent poor performances and their injury concerns, we predict that the hosts are going to emerge triumphant in Sunday's clash.
Highlighted Team (Nantes):
Founded on April 21, 1943 Nantes is a professional football club that compete in French Ligue 1. Les Canaris are considered one of the most famous French clubs and they had a lot of success during the sixties and the seventies. Nantes won their first Ligue 1 title in the 1964/1965 season and 36 years later (2000/2001) they clinched their eighth (last) domestic trophy.
Speaking of the club’s European success, les Canaris did well to make it to the Champions League semis in 1996, but Italian giants Juventus proved to be a big catch for the French outfit. Nantes welcome their rivals at La Beaujoire-Louis Fonteneau and the capacity of the stadium is 38.004.
The likes of Vahid Halilhodzic, Adel Selimi, Michel Der Zakarian, Viorel Moldovan, Mario Yepes, Marcel Desailly, Didier Deschamps, Claude Makelele, Christian Karembeu and Dimitri Payet are the notable footballers who played for the club in the past. Nantes are well known for their yellow jerseys and that is the reason why they are nicknamed the Canaries (les Canaris).
