Season ticket holders at Stade des Costières haven’t seen too many victories this season, with Nîmes languishing in the 19th position so far. The guesting Monaco will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.
It's no vacation for neither Nîmes nor Monaco as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Nîmes form and stats
Nîmes have collected 14 points from their Ligue 1 home games so far after 4-2-5.
The Nîmes supporters enjoyed the previous match, watching their team host Monaco in Ligue 1 and win 3-1. A defeat was the result before that one, 1-2 away at Saint-Étienne.
The Nîmes fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 12 in 11 matches. On the other hand, Nîmes have conceded 12 goals.
Monaco form and stats
There's been little loot from Monaco's travels as they have only collected 10 points from 11 away games in the Ligue 1. Monaco only have 2 wins to counter their 5 defeats and 4 draws. Recent form does not give Monaco much hope, as the visitors have lost three games in a row. Nîmes will be a tough nut to crack.
Monaco play their second straight away game, having lost the previous one 1-3 to Nîmes (placed 19th). Preceding that, the 0-1 home loss versus Saint-Étienne.
Monaco are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 11 away goals from 11 games (in the league). Monaco have conceded 18 goals in these games.
Head 2 Head
The two sides played each other earlier this season: Nîmes - Monaco 3-1. Head-2-head stats last nine meetings: two - four - three (Nîmes wins - draws - Monaco wins). As for goals, three matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), six had two or less.Top Goalscorers
