Prediction: 1-1
Nantes
All eyes will be on Stade de France when Nice and Nantes go head to head in the Coupe de France derby. Les Aiglons aim to build on back-to-back Ligue 1 wins over Troyes and Bordeaux, but this game will be anything but a walk in the park for the nominal hosts. All Schneiderlin, Atal, and Claude Maurice are likely to miss the title clash with injuries.
You should know that Nice are after their fourth French Cup trophy. Les Canaris are eyeing their fourth Coupe de France title as well, but beating Nice in one game is easier said than done. A close encounter is on the cards in “The City of Lights”, and, taking everything into account, we believe that there is a big value in betting on draw. All Blas, Fabio, and Girotto are back from Ligue 1 bans for the nominal visitors.

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.
