Angers vs Nice Betting Odds, Tips, Predictions, Preview 2nd April 2023

Nice look destined for a win in their match this coming Sunday against Angers. Bookmakers have them down as fairly big favourites, with the visitors going through a bit of a slump in the Ligue 1 lately.

Angers got hammered in their latest outing, and could still be rattled this coming Sunday. If so, Nice are in with a good chance of lashing yet another defeat for the hosts.

Angers scored five goals, conceded 24 and fought their way to one clean sheet in their previous ten matches.

Nice are currently decent goalscorers, as they managed a bearable 15 goals in the past ten outings for an average of 1.5 goals a game. Their opponents scored a total of five goals, and while Nice claimed six clean sheets, they conceded an average of 0.5 goals per match.

Nice were knocked out cold when Angers took a 1-0 win in their latest encounter. It served as pay back for the 1-0 defeat, Nice handed out in the game before.

Angers vs Nice Prediction

Angers Form

In their last three matches, Angers lost 5-0 against Montpellier, 0-2 against Toulouse and 3-0 against Lens. Angers did not win any of their last six Ligue 1 matches at the Stade Raymond Kopa. They came through these matches with a record of one draws and five defeats, in which they conceded 15 and scored seven goals.

Nice Form

Nice go into their upcoming match unbeaten in their previous three matches, which started off with a 2-2 draw against Nantes. They went on to beat FC Sheriff by 3-1, before sharing the spoils with Lorient in a 1-1 draw. Nice managed a decent return of three wins in their last six Ligue 1 away matches, in which they scored ten while also conceding five times. They also experienced two draws and one defeat.

Form is bordering of horrible for Angers, and another disappointment is looming on the horizon against Nice. It is difficult to argue on behalf of the home side, who could be busy attempting to minimize a defeat.

Nice won four of their previous eight outings against teams from the bottom six and claimed 15 points. They scored 11 and conceded six goals. Angers enjoy a record of two wins, four draws and 22 defeats in the Ligue 1 this season. Nice show off 11 wins, 11 draws and six defeats in the Ligue 1.
