Nice – Lille Soccer Prediction 02.03.2018

Nice – Lille Soccer Prediction of the Day

The Nice ranks 9th in the Ligue 1 ranking, with 36 points accumulating in 27 championship games. Italian Mario Balotelli is the team’s top scorer in the championship, and has managed to score 13 times so far. The hosts have a very poor time at this point, with only 2 points in the last 3 stages. Recently, Nice drew on the Bordeaux pitch with the score of 0-0. Nice left the Europa League last month, after an overall move in front of Lok. Moscow, 2-4. The coach of the hosts can not count on Mario Balotelli, C. Jallet and M. Le Marchand in this duel, due to injuries.

On the other side, Lille is ranked 19th in the rankings of the first league in France, the team managing to gather 27 points, after 27 stages. Ivorian N. Pepe is the best scorer of the team in the championship, with the 8 goals scored so far. The guests are in a continuous drop in shape, being unsuccessful in the last 4 championship games. After two consecutive draws, Lille recorded the previous stage a home defeat, 1-2 in front of Angers. Lille was able to enforce the last time on this field in a May 2012 championship match. K. Malcuit, A. El Ghazi, V. Enyeama and R.K. N’Guessan will not do this because of medical problems.

Prediction Nice – Lille

Lille has a very weak season, with the team struggling to avoid relegation to Ligue 2 this season. Also, they just left the Europa League, so the morale of the players is definitely on the ground. On the other side, nice is only a middle-of-the-line team, no real chances at European seats. I expect a modest, balanced, no-show show. My recommendations are therefore based on goals, which I hope will be as few as possible.
