Team news and form guide

Nice: Hoping for a win after three games without one

After their second loss in a row in Ligue 1, Nice seem to be unable to get back into good form that propelled them into the title race. Nice are still third in the standings, but a few other teams are too close for comfort and Nice need some good results if they want to play in Europe next season. Hichem Boudaoui and Sofiane Diop are the only players on Nice's injury list right now.

Moffi to score a brace?

Looking at Moffi's record this season in Ligue 1, betting on him to score two or more goals might be worth a punt. After all, Moffi scored a brace twice this season already, so of his six goals four have come from two matches.
