Monaco to Win
It is a grueling schedule once again for Monaco, similar to what they had to go through during the first part of the season. But, the team knows what is at stake, and is ready to fight for trophies. Even though Nice has been playing well, this Monaco vs Nice prediction will give the nod to the home team. Monaco is in the middle of a five-game winning streak in all competitions, and with their fourth game in just over ten days, it will be a big challenge to continue with their positive form. Nice had their winning streak of four league matches end last weekend when they disappointed their fans by playing a goalless draw at home against Reims. Monaco has won five of their last six h2h duels with one game ending in a draw.
Both Teams to Score – Yes
Monaco has the second-best attack in Ligue 1 after PSG, but they also have a troubling trend of conceding goals. With the hectic schedule they are facing, we already saw that they are allowing goals at an alarming rate. The home team conceded at least one goal in eight out of their last ten games in different competitions. Nice has managed to keep the clean sheet most of the time, they tout one of the best defenses in the league, but their backline will be challenged by one of the best attacks in the league. When it comes to the current form regarding BTTS, Monaco covered that bet in five of their last six league games while Nice did it only once. Looking at their h2h matchup for the same reason, three out of the past five encounters ended with both teams scoring a goal, however, the last two matches had only one goal apiece.

Preview, Team News, and Monaco vs Nice Lineups
Monaco
Whether Monaco can extend their great run of form will depend on the depth of their roster. Last month they sold young defender Benoit Badiashile without bringing in his replacement. The problem is that there are also a couple of injured defenders on their list for the Nice tie, those are Vanderson and Ruber Aguilar, so coach Philippe Clement has certain problems to deal with.
Possible lineup: Nubel, Matsima, Disasi, Sarr, Henrique, Diatta, Fofana, Matazo, Golovin, Ben Seghir, Ben Yedder.
Nice
A coaching change did wonders for Nice after the departure of Lucien Favre. Didier Digard has done a great job bringing some joy to his players after the sub-par first part of the season. Now, they are looking to fight for some of Europe's competitions next season and these are the games that will do them favors if they pull through with a good result. Goalkeeper Marcin Bulka is the only player on the injured list for Nice.
Possible lineup: Schmeichel, Bard, Dante, Todibo, Lotomba, Thuram, Boudaoui, Ramsey, Diop, Moffi, Laborde.
Starting lineups
Starting lineups are usually released 60 minutes before kick-off.

Nice
Player to Watch: Terem Moffi
The Nigerian forward has been playing terrific this season for Lorient scoring 12 goals, with those performances he earned a January transfer to Nice. However, in three games for his new club thus far, he has failed to score. But, he could be the deciding factor against Monaco.
