Prediction: 1-0
Auxerre
Nantes take on Auxerre at Stade de la Beaujoire in their first home game of the season. Les Canaris played out a boring goalless draw with Toulouse in their opener, but they are surely capable of beating Auxerre in front of home fans. Egypt international Mostafa Mohamed is pushing for a start after coming as a substitute in the goalless draw with Toulouse, while the likes of Florent Mollet, Fabien Centonze, Adel Mahamoud, and Ignatius Ganago remain in the recovery room.
Christophe Pélissier’s troops, on the other hand, made a promising start to the season, with the team beating Nice 2-1 in front of home fans. Auxerre, though, are not regarded as good travellers and that is the main reason why we are going to bet on Antoine Kombouare’s charges. All Clement Akpa, Ange Loic N’Gatta, Gideon Mensah, and Ousoumane Camara are sidelined with injuries for the visiting team.
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).
