Prediction: 1-2
Nice
Nice will be aiming to put an end to their three-game losing run in the Ligue 1 when they face Troyes on Sunday afternoon. Les Aiglons do not seem to be at their sharpest, and, as a result, they have slim Conference League hopes. All Nicolas Pepe, Alexis Beka Beka, Mattia Viti, and Sofiane Diop are out of contention through injuries, speaking of the visiting side.
The hosts, on the other hand, are stuck in the relegation zone, and given their poor form in April, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the visitors. Canada forward Ike Ugbo is pushing for a start, while defender Rominigue Kouame is banned for the match. All Renaud Ripart, Abdu Conte, and Karim Azamoum are out of contention through injuries. In the first half of the season Nice recorded a 3-2 win over Troyes.
