Victory for Sochaux
We expect Sochaux to collect all points in this Round 33 Ligue 2 encounter with Nimes. The visitors are fifth and while they are safe from sixth-place, they will want to keep their place strongly in the top five fold. It is the only way to participating in promotion playoffs. Finishing second is also plausible and so, defeating struggling Nimes in this duel should not be a question of how but when they meet this weekend. Nimes lost three and drew once in their last four games.
No goals on both ends
There is a distant possibility that both teams will score in this match. Nimes is struggling to score after scoring only two goals in the last four games. And while Sochaux has a better form ahead of this game, the visitors haven’t been scoring lots of goals. Backing goals on one end or a barren draw should come with a good price on Ladbrokes.
Under 2.5
Under 2.5 goals is another possible outcome in this game. The hosts are unlikely to score after finding the net only twice in the last four games. The scoring problem could get worse in this game against Sochaux. The visitors have three clean sheet wins from the last four matches.
Nimes vs Sochaux Preview and Analysis
Nimes is fighting to secure more points that could help them stay up while Sochaux is looking t0 participate in promotion playoffs at the end of the season. It means this game is important for both times.
The visitors lost to Nimes in the reverse fixture that ended 1-0, so expect Sochaux to revenge in this trip. Recent stats show that Sochaux have won all their last four games, so another victory, especially against struggling Nimes that has not won in five games of 1D and 4L is a likely outcome in this game.
