Niort or Draw
Our first Niort vs Sochaux prediction backs the bottom-dwellers to avoid a defeat against the promotion-chasing Sochaux team. Niort resurrected their survival chances thanks to 2 wins in the last 3 home games, with 1 of those victories against another top team Bordeaux. At the same time, Sochaux failed to win any of their last 3 away games (D2 L1) and have won just once in the last 4 rounds.

We might not think Sochaux will win but we still think they will score at least 1 goal. Our second Niort vs Sochaux prediction is for the visitors to find the back of the net. Sochaux scored in all of the last 7 H2H clashes. Also, Niort have failed to keep a clean sheet in 10 consecutive home games.
Over 0.5 First Half Goals
Our final Niort vs Sochaux prediction stays in the Goals Market and it is that there will be at least 1 goal scored in the first half. With 4 of Sochaux’s last 6 games having a first-half goal in them and 3 of Niort’s last 4 too we see this happening again now.
Niort vs Sochaux Lineups and Other News
Niort
Niort lost 0-2 on their visit to Saint-Etienne last Saturday. The display was good in the first half but way too passive after the interval and this proved costly. The gap to safety remains large so points are badly needed and at least at home, this has brought an extra edge to Niort’s displays in recent weeks.
Niort are bound to make some changes to their lineup. The returning from a ban Conte should start again as the main centre-back Passi remains sidelined. In another major boost, the team’s top goalscorer Boutobba (10 goals) is also back after a suspension and he is certain to lead the charge upfront.
Sochaux
Sochaux saw their 9-game unbeaten run came to an end last Saturday when they lost 2-3 away against Bastia. Had chances to even win this match but ultimately way too many defensive errors were committed. This defeat seriously hurt the promotion chances, although Sochaux remain in the hunt.
Sochaux are expected to make changes to their lineup and the returning from suspensions in-form striker Doumbia, centre-backs Aaneba and Meddah could all be considered from the off. The only serious injury issue is the main left-back Ndour, he is considered touch-and-go due to a knock.
