Bordeaux vs Nice

The teams of Bordeaux and Nice are going to meet at the beginning of the 27th round in French Ligue 1. The Derby is on Friday, February 19. Here is our football prediction.
Bordeaux managed to end a run of three losses in a row in all tournaments with a convincing victory against Guingamp with 4:2. The success of team came mostly because of the incredible performances of Sheikh Diabate and Diego Rolland, who made a goal and an assist. Now they have the opportunity to continue their rise in the overall standings with triumph against Nice, which would allow the team to enter the battle for a place in the Champions League.
The hosts have been quite convincing at home lately and are more than capable to put an end to the negative trend against the Eagles at home, especially considering that they come without its star Ben Arfa. The absence of Hatem has already begun to affect the outcome of Nice, and they seem ready to take advantage of the situation.
The coach a long list of injured players. The titular goalkeeper Carasso, as well as field players Contento, Zusie, Lefebvre, Telin, Molun, Pablo, Gaic and Sertic are with injuries while Crivelli and Paloa are punished for the match.
The team of Nice made a great season after becoming the third with an asset of 40 points. The difference to their upcoming opponent, who is the ninth, is only four points, which shows just how competitive is the battle for a place in the European club according bestfootballpredictions tournaments. The series of five consecutive shutouts of Nice as a guest of Bordeaux could easily come to an end, as they will be without its star in forward Hatem Ben Arfa. The best player on the team from the Riviera had a concussion and is expected to be sidelined at least until March. His absence is already reflected on the team, which failed to triumph in their last seven games as a guest in all tournaments.
If they admitted defeat in the upcoming match, not only will call into question their current position in the table, but will allow Bordeaux to get close just one point. Germaine Waller ended a run of three games without a goal, having scored against Marseille (1:1) in the last round. He should continue with the goals, if the team`s coach Claude Puel is planning to achieve a positive result in this clash.
The team will be without Puplen, Traore, Le Bian and Ben Arfa. Bordeaux, however, has far more problems with injured and suspended players, so we expect a good performance this evening, if we take into account the poor performance of Nice as a guest. We expect both teams to get more cautiously in the match, because the points are very important for both Bordeaux and Nice. In any case, equality would appeal on both sides, so it is quite possible the winner of the upcoming game to not be aired, as happened in two of the last three meetings between these teams.
Our football forecast is X.
