Nimes vs Sochaux Betting Tips: BTTS

The players of players, visibly in a bad mood, will aim to say goodbye to their fans for this season in the best way possible. However, they face a difficult task in the form of Sochaux, a team against whom they have suffered four defeats in their previous five meetings, including a 1-3 defeat in mid-September in the first clash of the season.

The club from the south of France is going through a really difficult period. Two years ago they competed in the elite society, and now they flew into the abyss, they were relegated from Ligue 2 and from the next season they will play in the third tier of French football.

There is no doubt that the defensive segment is their sore point this season. They conceded just three goals (61) less than Niort who holds first place in terms of the weakest defense - 64. In fact, their defense failed when it was most needed, in the photo finish, conceding two or more goals in each of the previous six rounds.

On the positive side, the attacking zone of Nimes has impressed in recent weeks, especially when they played matches in front of their fans. Their offensive power is best illustrated by the fact that they packed at least three balls into the rival's nets in three of the last five home games, while they scored 2+ goals in four of the last five.

Sochaux arrives at the "Stade des Antonins", a team that is going through a serious result agony lately. Namely, The Yellow and Blues have completely lost their rhythm in the finale season, losing each of their previous seven league challenges, not to mention that they have found the back of the net just once in the last five rounds.

Despite the lack of offensive sharpness, Sochaux is someone who has the recipe to score against The Crocodiles. Out of a total of 11 visits to Nimes, the club from Montbeliard has scored at least a goal in 10 of those, with as many as eight there were goals in both sides. Since both teams enter completely relieved, we expect very interesting and attractive football and it would be a surprise not to see goals in both nets.
