| 8 | Points | 14 |

Angers have continued to struggle for results, suffering their third defeat in four league matches last time out with a 2-0 loss away to Lyon, alongside one draw during that spell.
That setback leaves Stephane Gilli's men hovering just outside the relegation places, with goal difference the only thing keeping them above the bottom three.
Home advantage has offered little encouragement either, as Angers have managed just one victory in their last 11 matches on their own ground, drawing four and losing six.
Their lack of attacking threat has been a major concern, with only seven goals scored across those fixtures.
Nice, on the other hand, have enjoyed a remarkable improvement after a difficult opening to the campaign, which saw them collect just two points from their first four matches.
The visitors have gradually climbed the table by winning four of their last five league outings, with only one defeat during that run.
Their latest performance was particularly impressive, as they swept aside Rennes 5-2 to move up to eighth place ahead of this round.
However, their away form has been questionable, having secured only one victory in their last four travels, losing three.
As it stands, the Eaglets are now just one point away from the European qualification places and will see this trip as an opportunity to strengthen their push for continental football.
