Nice vs Auxerre Preview and Team News
Nice Team News
Nice are having an impressive season and have earned 3rd place in Ligue 1 with 46 points. At home, they’ve played 12 times and only lost once, managing a +16 goal difference in front of their home crowd.
At the Allianz Riviera, Nice have 8 wins, 3 draws and only one loss. The defeat came in their most recent match against Lyon, who won 2-0. In their previous five Ligue 1 games, they collected four victories and lost once, scoring 10 and conceding 4 goals. This demonstrates their defensive solidity and attacking prowess.
The manager, Franck Haise, will have two injury issues to deal with before their home meeting against Auxerre this weekend. Central midfielder Morgan Sansone is dealing with an ankle injury, and center-forward Terem Moffi is sidelined with a cruciate ligament tear.
Our football bet predictions indicate Nice are in the driving seat ahead of Friday’s home event. A win will see them return to winning ways and press home their advantage as they chase Marseille for second.
Nice Predicted Lineup vs Auxerre (3-4-2-1): Bulka; Bombito, Ndayishimiye, Dante; Clauss, Boudaoui, Santamaria, Bard; Guessand, Cho; Laborde.
Auxerre Team News
Auxerre are mired in mid-table in Ligue 1, sitting 11th with 31 points. Their current form is average after 2 wins, 2 ties, and 1 loss in their previous five outings. Overall, they have scored 36 goals and conceded 38 in 25 rounds. This run shows they have a potent attack but have to contend with a subpar defensive record.
Auxerre’s away form is of concern ahead of Friday’s clash at Nice. They have played 12 fixtures this season, winning 2, drawing 2, and losing 8. This poor run is underpinned by a poor defensive record, which sees them post an 11 goal difference. In their last five outings away from home, they have 1 victory, 1 draw, and 3 defeats.
Christophe Pélissier’s men bounced back from the 0-1 defeat against RC Strasbourg to beat Reims 0-2 away. They’ll look to maintain this standard of performance if they are to challenge an in-form Nice side.
Manager Pélissier must contend with two health issues. Right winger Lasso Coulibaly and defensive midfielder Nathan Buayi-Kiala are both sidelined with cruciate ligament injuries.
Free football predictions on 22Bet believe Auxerre must improve on their recent form if they’re to take something from the trip to Nice.
Auxerre Predicted Lineup vs Nice (5-4-1): Léon; Mensah, Akpa, Jubal, Osho, Hoever; Traorè, Owusu, Danois, Perrin; Bair.

- Pick: Nice To Win
- Odds: 1,57 (22Bet)
- Score prediction: Nice 2-1 Auxerre
Nice are heavily favored to win Friday’s clash because of their stellar home record at the Allianz Riviera this term. In front of their fans, they have 8 victories and 3 ties out of 11 events. Furthermore, four wins from five games highlight their consistency in both attack and defense, making them formidable opponents.
Auxerre, on the other hand, have been sporadic and show significant struggles away from home, making them vulnerable in this encounter. Our football predictions analysis indicates a home win could be a safe football pick in this match-up.
Nice vs Auxerre Prediction, Betting Tip
- Pick: Nice To Score From 1 To 15 Minute – Yes
- Odds: 3.5 (22Bet)
Nice have been dominant at home this season, with an unbeaten record. Expert soccer predictions on 22Bet reveal that their aggressive starts often set the match tone, and they capitalize on the home crowd’s energy to press early.
Statistically, Nice have shown a tendency to score early in games. Around 13% of their goals this season have come within the opening quarter of an hour. This indicates their ability to break down defenses quickly, especially when coming up against teams with weaker backlines.
The home side finding the back of the net within the first 15 minutes could be a safe football pick.
