Last Game: Toulouse 2-1 Nice
Sunday, March 3 at 12pm in Ligue 1

We said: Nice 1-0 Montpellier HSC

Goals have been hard to come by all season for Nice, but even their defence has been unable to bail them out in recent weeks as their slide down the table has continued. Against another side struggling for form though, this could be a scrappy encounter with little to separate the two, but defensive injuries and a suspension to Sagnan means Montpellier may struggle to keep Nice at bay here.
