LiontipsNice - Saint-Etienne: betting tip (cf 2.00) and bets on the French Championship match
Command Analysis
Current form
The club from the Cote d'Azur played its first match for the right to remain in Ligue 1, in principle, successfully and now everything is in the hands of Claude Puel's wards. It was difficult for the team to create scoring chances because of the pressure, and there was not a single shot on goal. Nice did not take the initiative into their own hands and will now do everything possible to show a positive result in today's game. A goalless draw in Saint-Etienne means that the club has no right to make mistakes in its native Allianz Riviera. Also note that due to the riots caused by Eaglets fans in the final round match against Metz (0-0), the match will be held with empty stands.
Disqualifications and injuries
The injured Budawi, Bombito and Everton will not help the team.
Interesting betting trends
- Nice have won five of their last six face-to-face matches.
- In games against Saint-Etienne, the team scores an average of 1.76 goals.
Approximate line–up: Diouf – Kloss, Mendy, Oppong, Bar – Vanhautte, Sanson – Sho, Diop, Jansson - Wai.
Current form
Saint-Etienne was unable to take advantage of his field advantage in the first match and put himself in an awkward position. A 0-0 draw and not a single shot on target in Nice is a verdict, it will be extremely difficult to resist the opponent today. Moreover, Philippe Montagnier's team did not draw proper conclusions after the game with Rodez, where they won only in a penalty shootout, and they risk remaining in Ligue 2. Most likely, the team will spend another season in the second league and it is not a fact that they will earn a direct ticket to the elite of French football. It should also be noted that in the last six face-to-face meetings, the greens have not won a single victory and conceded 20 goals in these games with four goals scored.
Disqualifications and injuries
El Jamali, Aimar, Jaber and Lamba will miss the game due to injuries.
Interesting betting trends
- Saint-Etienne has averaged one goal in the last five games.
- The Greens cannot win on the road in four consecutive matches

Tip and bets
A victory in today's match will allow Nice to retain its place in Ligue 1 and the club does not intend to lose to a lower-class opponent in its home matches. The Eaglets also have the task of extending their home-stadium victory streak over Saint-Etienne to four games in a row. The hosts are the undisputed favorite in the meeting, who intend to rehabilitate themselves for the disastrous season and the French Cup. Claude Puel's players have a higher chance of winning, according to the bookmakers' quotes. In our opinion, the red-blacks will win and achieve their goal.
Prediction – Nice wins with a coefficient of 2.00
Bet on the total
In our opinion, there will be few goals in Nice. The Red-Blacks have been playing low-scoring opponents lately, and no more than two goals have been scored in seven of the Eaglets' last ten matches. It should also be noted that in the last five away matches of Saint-Etienne, it turned out to score three or more goals between them only twice. We expect the hosts to play for the result, and we advise you to pay attention to the bet on the total less.
The betting tip is a total of less than 2.5 goals with a coefficient of 1.65
Betting on corners
The hosts have no right to make mistakes, and today they will run forward from the first minutes and set a high pace of the meeting. Most likely, there should be a lot of corners, since in three of the last five games, the greens served at least 10 corners.
The betting tip is that the total number of corners is more than 9.5 with a coefficient of 1.95
