AS Monaco vs OGC Nice - 03/02/2021
1385
Monaco are enjoying a strong campaign in Ligue One this season and on Wednesday night Niko Kovac’s team host Nice at the Stade Louis ll, as the home side look to push for a Champions League spot.
The home team head into this clash fourth-place in the table, just three points adrift of reigning champions PSG, who occupy the last Champions League berth.
A 2-1 win over Nantes last time out means that the team from the principality are unbeaten in seven league games, having won their last six Ligue One games in the process.
A key to that recent good run of league form has been Monaco’s attacking prowess, as the home team have scored at least two goals in their last six matches in the French top-flight. Their goalscoring exploits have also led to their last six league games producing over 2.5 goals.
Monaco have been difficult to beat on home soil of late, as they have lost just once in their previous 14 matches in the French top-flight. The home team have been highly prolific on home soil of late, scoring at least two goals in nine of their last 11 games.
Nice have endured a difficult season and the visitors currently sit 13th place in the Ligue One table. A 1-0 home defeat by St. Etienne last time out means that the visitors have won just one of their previous seven games in the French top-flight. Despite their recent poor run of form, they are still eight points clear of the relegation play-off spots.
The visitors have been difficult to beat on their travels of late, suffering just one defeat in their previous eight league games on the road.
Forebet predicts that Monaco will continue their good form and scoring prowess by recording a victory in a relatively low-scoring affair.
