Angers can stay compact and send Sbaï or Peter into the space beside Nice's advanced wingbacks. Nice can answer by moving the outside defenders and delivering into Wahi or Amoura. Their wide service and the second contact inside the box have been recurring parts of recent matches. The match should be shaped by which side converts that access into a goalward finish.
Nice have reached the last touch through Clauss's delivery, Diop's pressure and combination, Amoura's movement and set pieces. Angers have conceded from wide service and corners, while their latest two matches ended without a goal despite Peter reaching the frame. El Ouazzani missed Angers' last match and remains out, so Peter's replacement role is observed; Nice's reported returnees are not needed to establish the attacking chain. Nice also rebuilt their supply after conceding to Brest. That's why I'm siding with Nice.
