Nimes vs Amiens tips and predictions

Nimes can resist Amiens challenge

There's 7 points separating the two clubs as seventh place Nimes get set to host 16th place Amiens.

It looks like this will be a pretty even contest and there are arguments to be made for both teams. The pick is to get with the home team but this could be made to look pretty silly at the full-time whistle. There's just not enough value in the Amiens price.

Whether it's significant or not, Nimes might have reasons to be confident about adding to Amiens's woes. The away side comes into the match with 4 losses from their last 7 matches. While they've obviously had different opposition, that doesn't stand out as the record of a team that will be confident about winning this.

This home team is doing some great stuff and they're gaining some impetus. Nimes scored two or more times in 6 of their recent 11 matches and they've rarely been caught sleeping. They've conceded only 2 goals in their last 5 games.

Amiens have not enjoyed some of their recent tests on the road. They actually conceded two or more times in 8 of their last 12 away matches. And the problems aren't exclusive to the defensive third. In each of their last 3 matches the visitors have not scored goals.

A more pessimistic view is that they may end up in stalemate. Each of the two sides has reasons for confidence and it might be a match with both teams getting on the scoresheet. In that regard the BTTS Yes bet seems like a decent side bet.
