Nantes vs Nimes Predictions, Tips & Predictions

Nantes vs Nimes
France – Ligue 1
Date: Sunday, August 30, 2024
Starts at 14pm UK / 00pm CET
Location: Stade La Beaujoire.

Nantes started their campaign last week with a 0-0 draw at Bordeaux. At first glance, it was a decent point for the visiting club. However, for most of the match Bordeaux played with 10 men after one player was sent off and Nantes squandered some good chances to win.

This game against Nimes marks Nantes' first home game of the season.

Nimes became first in the league after the first round of games with the highest score. The club were fantastic beating Brest 4-0. It was the perfect start for them and they will want to do everything in their power to keep it that way.

Four different players scored the goals for Nimes and had 17 scoring opportunities. It's that kind of exciting game that Nimes lacked last season and many will be watching this game in hopes that last week wasn't the only one.

Nantes vs Nimes: head to head

• The last time the clubs played here in the league, Nimes won 4-2.

Nantes vs Nimes: prediction

So we have a team in Nantes that haven't managed to score to Bordeaux's 10 and a team in Nîmes that have already scored 4 goals. But Nantes away from home will not be an easy game, but Nimes have good memories of coming here and getting a good victory.

It's a tough game to pin down, but we're going to bet a little on the locals to get the win. Nantes need to improve on last weekend and Nimes could be a team that shines at home but fails abroad. At the same time, as this is the start of the season, be careful with your risk bet.

For a good value, we will also support the correct score.
