Nice vs Auxerre Prediction

Le Gym have lost their three games this season without scoring and will look to improve upon that record. They have lost just one of their last four Ligue 1 home games, recording three wins while keeping two clean sheets. They are unbeaten in their last four Ligue 1 home meetings against the visitors. Notably, they have scored one goal apiece in these games.

They have a lengthy absentee list as Ali Abdi, Mohamed Abdelmonem, Dante, Tanguy Ndombele, Mohamed-Ali Cho, Morgan Sanson, Youssouf Ndayishimiye, and Moïse Bombito are sidelined with injuries. Jonathan Clauss is a doubt with an ankle injury picked up last week.

Auxerre began their season with a win and a clean sheet, and will look to continue that form here. Three of their last five wins in Ligue 1 have been registered on their travels. They have failed to score in three of their last six away league games in this fixture.

Sinaly Diomadé and Oussama El Azzouzi are confirmed absentees, while Gabriel Osho, Telli Siwé, and Joshua Casimir face late fitness tests.

Les Aiglons have a good home record in this fixture and should be able to hold the visitors to a narrow draw.
