FC Sheriff vs Nice Predictions and Free Tips from our expert tipsters when the teams go head-to-head in UEFA Europa Conference League on Thursday, 9 March 2023.
Nice are currently one of the best and most consistent teams in the French top flight, considering that they are one of the only three squads to have remained unbeaten in the last five game weeks.
And they are highly confident about the upcoming fixture, considering that they are locking horns with practically minnows. Sheriff are part of the Moldovan top flight, and are in no way comparable to a titan like Nice.
Sheriff are about to clash with these French opponents for the first time.
Nice are on such a dominant run that they have a single Ligue 1 loss to their name in the past five months. Along the way they defeated some titans like Lille, Monaco, Lens, Marseille etc.
On the other hand, not only are Sheriff winless in five of their past ten fixtures, but four of these were losses too. Most importantly, they are from a league that is miles below in terms of quality compared to Ligue 1.
It looks like Nice are about to deliver a comprehensive win this Thursday.
Nice scored three or more goals in three of their last five overall fixtures, and two of these fixtures were against titans Monaco, and Marseille. They also scored six goals from their past two road trips combined – and the defense of the hosts might not be equipped to handle this much firepower.
Anticipate goals in plenty this game week.
Sheriff did score three or more goals in their last two fixtures, and they failed to find the back of the net just once since October. They could be counted on to find the back of the net at least once, despite being the underdogs.
Likely, chances are good for goals to come from both ends of the pitch.
Nice are on a dominant run in the Ligue 1 for the past five months, that they lost just once, and defeated the likes of Marseille, Monaco, Lille, Lens etc. It goes without saying that they are high in confidence as well as momentum.
On the other hand, Sheriff are from the Moldovan top flight – which is in no way comparable to the Ligue 1. Moreover, the team is also winless in five of their past ten fixtures, with four being losses.
Based on recent form, as well as quality, Nice are expected to win, and the odds for the same are placed at 1.90.
Going on, Nice scored three or more goals in three of their past five games, and they even slotted in six goals against Montpellier a month before. Moreover, they scored three or more goals in their last two road trips – and these were against Monaco and Marseille – titans of the French top flight.
As such, Over 1.5 Team Goals by Nice appear to be promising at 2.20 odd.
