Nice vs Monaco Prediction, Betting Tips & Prediction

Nice v Monaco
France Ligue 1
Date: Sunday, November 8, 2024
Start at 16pm UK / 17pm CET
Location: Stade Allianz Riviera (Nice).

The infamous derby in the south of France will take place on Sunday night when Nice take on Monaco and there will be no love between the two teams.

Nice are fourth on 17 points and, apart from a slight overhang, have started the season very well. The club has recorded 5 wins in its first 9 games and could break into the top 3 with a win.

Form is good, with 11 points in their last 15 and they haven't lost since mid-September.

Monaco has been more unpredictable, looking good one week only to lose the next. That said, if they win this match, they would be level on points with Nice.

Last weekend Monaco got a good confidence boost and beat Bordeaux 4-0. However, the problems of the clubs are evident away from home where they lost 4 of the 3 matches played and that includes losing the last three in a row.

Nice vs Monaco: Head to Head

• Nice won this match last season 2-1.
• Monaco haven't won in Nice since 2015 and that goes back 5 games.

Nice vs Monaco: Prediction

We can also watch the most entertaining match of the Ligue 1 weekend, when Nice and Monaco fight. This is because both teams have shown us great football this season and because we are at an early stage some tactics could go out the window and be replaced by top-to-bottom football that could very well represent a cup game.

This should be a close game, although we are betting on Nice to win at home. They are shaping up to be a good team with Patrick Vieira and Monaco have had some bad experiences here in recent years and are not traveling well. Will this really change to a classic?

Good tips against Monaco:

• It feels good to beat Monaco at 3,25 (9/4)

• Both teams score 1,50 (1/2)

• A red card will be shown at 5,00 (4/1).
