Best Odds and Predictions for Nimes vs St. Etienne

Two teams that are in the midst of a tough relegation battle are meeting to decide who comes on top for the next week.

Draw

There could be a struggle to score goals in Nimes vs St. Etienne match, and concerning both team’s ambitions to remain in Ligue 2, the draw is a result that won’t do much good to either team, but it is something they will take if it means they remain undefeated for at least one more week. St. Etienne is looking better form-wise at the moment, they won two matches in a row or three in their last five outings. Nimes had a two-game winning streak of their own recently but failed to take the victory in the last two outings. Nimes has won five games at home this season with as many losses, and only one draw. St. Etienne’s away form consists of two wins, three draws, and six losses.

First Half Correct Score – 0-0

With so much at stake, both of these teams are expected to take a cautious approach to this match. Even though some goals were involved in their last few h2h matches, going for a low-scoring half might be the way to go in this Nimes vs St. Etienne prediction. However, looking at the last five games for both teams in the league, Nimes had only one match ended goalless after the first half, while St. Etienne had two matches from that standpoint.

Both Teams to Score – Yes

This prediction is based on their h2h record. Four out of their past five matches ended with both teams scoring a goal including this season’s match at the start of the campaign when the score was 1-1. St. Etienne had two games with BTTS covered in their past five duels, while the home team had four in their last five. When it comes to their home record, plenty of goals are scored, and Nimes has managed to get at least one goal in three out of their four matches since the end of December. St. Etienne is two out of five with BTTS in their last five games.

Nimes

Looking for a beacon of hope, Nimes has to focus on its defense which is leaking at a high rate allowing 34 goals this season, one of the highest marks in the league. Nimes is without team captain Benoit Poulain, Scotty Sadzoute, and Mahamadou Doucoure for the match.

St. Etienne
