Nantes vs Nimes Predictions

• Nimes have won five of their last eight games in Ligue 1.
• Nantes have only won one of their last nine league games.
• Nantes are winless in five home Ligue 1 games, losing four of them.

Nimes were saved from a looming relegation battle by the Ligue 1 abandonment last season, finishing 18th in the table, four points clear of the relegation zone and having lost each of their last three.

However, the visitors got the 2020/21 campaign off to an absolute flyer as they thrashed Brest 4-0 last weekend, and they will be hoping for more of the same when they face a Nantes side that played out a drab goalless draw against Bordeux in their opener.

Nantes have now won just one of their last nine Ligue 1 games, and they could struggle to buck that trend on Sunday. Nimes may have ended last campaign on a losing streak, but they will have a huge confidence boost after last weekend and they have won five of their last nine league games.

Things get even more pessimistic for Nantes at home. They are winless in five home games, and considering Nimes’ excellent start to the season backing a Nimes win or draw double chance looks very good value for money.

We actually think the underdogs can take all three points here. Nantes have lost four of their last five at home and Nimes have won five of their last eight home and away. Two of Nantes’ four recent home defeats have been 2-1 scorelines, so we’re opting for that for our correct score prediction.
