Prediction: 2-1
Angers
Nice will be looking to make amends for a 2-0 loss to Lyon when they take on Angers at Allianz Riviera on Matchday 25. Les Aiglons are determined to represent France in European competitions next season, but they will have to be at their sharpest in the remainder of the season if they are to meet the goal. Both Youcef Atal and Jordan Amavi are sidelined with injuries, but they should be the only absentees in the home team.
Les Scoistes, on the other hand, suffered a dip in form, with the team losing each of their last three league fixtures. Angers are low on spirits ahead of the trip to Nice, and we do not believe that they are capable of grabbing something from Sunday’s clash. Gerald Baticle should have a full squad to choose from.
