Nice vs Monaco Prediction

Monaco can pack a punch on their day but are yet to hit their stride in Ligue 1 this season. The likes of Breel Embolo and Wissam Ben Yedder are lethal at their best and will need to step up this weekend.

Nice have good players at their disposal but have a few issues to address ahead of this game. Monaco are the better team on paper and hold the upper hand this weekend.

Prediction: Nice 0-2 Monaco
