Nantes Prediction – Can Nantes pull themselves out of rut?

Sunday afternoon’s hosts, Nantes, have had a rough time of it in recent times in the French top flight as they’ve now had to endure a 5-match sequence without a win in Ligue 1, but they won’t get a better chance than this clash against bottom side, Toulouse, to return to winning ways here.

Recent defeats to Metz, Monaco, Bordeaux and Saint-Etienne along with gaining just 1 point in a draw away at 15th placed Brest have resulted in Nantes dropping down to a mid-table position of 10th place on the Ligue 1 ladder, but all three points on Sunday afternoon could lift the hosts back up near the top four.

An overall home record of 4-1-2 6/4 looks reasonable enough but recent back-to-back defeats to Monaco and 8th placed Saint-Etienne have spoilt the stats a little, but having previously put together a 4-match winning streak against Montpellier, Reims, Rennes and Nice, Nantes should still be confident of bouncing back here.

Nantes have also held the upper hand over Toulouse in recent times at home as they’re unbeaten in their last 5 clashes on home turf, winning their last 3 encounters on the trot 2-0, 4-0 and 2-1 respectively.

Toulouse Prediction – Can Toulouse lift off bottom place?

Even a point would do it but Toulouse would still remain in the relegation zone while all three points would see them draw level on points with the teams above them such as Metz and Dijon but given their poor goal difference of -12 ahead of this Sunday’s clash against Nantes, the best that Toulouse can hope for is to move up into second from bottom spot.

Of course, having lost their last 4 matches on the trot in the French top flight, all of these calculations may well be academic following recent defeats to Rennes, Lyon, Montpellier and Marseille, which has left Toulouse bottom of the pile prior to this weekend’s action.

Toulouse still remain without a win away from home in this season’s Ligue 1 campaign with a disappointing away record of 0-3-4 7/16 which includes losing 3 of their last 4 matches on their travels following losses at Nimes, Rennes and Montpellier, and even a trip to an out of sorts Nantes outfit could pose further problems for Antoine Kombouare’s side.

 

Key-Facts – Nantes vs Toulouse

  • Nantes have won 4 of their 7 home matches to date in Ligue 1
  • Toulouse have lost their last 4 matches on the trot in Ligue 1
  • Nantes are unbeaten in last 5 meetings at home v Toulouse, winning last 3 on trot

 

Betting Tips Verdict

Nantes have gone off the boil in recent weeks but they should be able to bounce back here.
