They have scored eleven goals in their last five games and while their defence has leaked nine times over that period, the attacking flair of Denis Bouanga and Renaud Ripart has been a joy to watch. They have both scored three times in their last six games and look on top form, a key part of Nîmes’ recent success.
Nîmes also have a terrific home record which could be beneficial for them, and detrimental to Monaco. They are unbeaten since January at the Stade des Costières with five wins and two draws in their last seven games there. They have won each of their last three and with the spirits high we’re backing them to continue that against Monaco. Les Monegasques have scored twelve goals in their last nine away games but with just one win in that time, we’re backing a 2-1 victory for Nîmes. We’re also backing Nîmes to score over 1.5 goals as Monaco have conceded 14 goals in their last eight away days while the Crocodiles have scored over 1.5 goals in their last five home games.
