Nice

The team is currently vying for qualification into the UEFA Champions League zone. With 40 points accumulated after 24 rounds of Ligue 1, they trail the fourth-placed team by just one point and are two points adrift of the third spot - the battle rages on. However, in their last five matches, Nice has only managed one victory, drawn once, and suffered three defeats. In the previous round, they fell to Toulouse with a scoreline of 2-1.

Montpellier

Situated at the opposite end of the Ligue 1 table, they occupy the penultimate position, having garnered 23 points from 24 rounds. Their deficit to safety, the 15th position, is merely one point. The fight for survival in France's top flight continues. In their last five matches, Montpellier has suffered three defeats, claimed one victory, and played to a draw once. In their latest fixture, they played out a 2-2 draw at home against Strasbourg.

Interesting Match Facts and Head-to-Head History

• In the current season, Nice and Strasbourg have clashed twice. One match concluded in a goalless draw, while in the other encounter, Nice triumphed emphatically with a 4-1 scoreline.
• Nice is currently enduring a less-than-ideal streak of four matches without a victory.
• Despite Montpellier's somewhat uncertain recent form, they boast a streak of six matches with at least one goal scored.

Nice vs Montpellier Prediction

Nice has been unable to secure a victory in their last four matches, making the game against one of the underdogs an excellent opportunity to break this unfortunate streak. My bet is on a Nice victory at odds of 1.75.
