Basel vs Nice Prediction: Both to Score

Prediction for the Conference League Basel vs Nice match, which will take place on April 13th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Basel this season is the vice-champion of Switzerland, but to repeat this result now will be difficult. They are sixth in the national championship standings, and the gap from the second place is only five points. Another thing is that they could be in better shape now. In the last five rounds, they claimed only one win, two draws, and loss to Young Boys by a wide margin - 0:3. In the Conference League, however, the Swiss have already reached the quarterfinals, having beaten Slovan Bratislava on penalties in the last round.

For Nice, this season, they started very hard. In Ligue 1, they struggled a lot, and in the Conference League, they might not to get to the group stage, losing in the first game to Maccabi. In the return meeting, they won in extra time. Now the Eagles are even playing in the quarterfinals of the tournament. In the French championship, the Reds and Blacks also went up, and in the last 13 rounds, they suffered only one defeat, and that from PSG - 0:2. Nice moved to ninth place in the Ligue 1 standings.

Basel and Nice have been performing modestly, but the French side transformed for the better of late. In the last 15 meetings in all competitions, the Eagles suffered only one defeat. The Swiss' skills and ambitions are noticeably lower, which the Reds and Blacks need to take advantage of. 

The first matches at such high stages of European competitions are not productive. But Basel and Nice may take some shots at the goal. The Swiss scored 24 goals in their last seven Conference League games (3.43 on average) and were 2:2 up against Slovan. The French have scored 15 goals (3.00 on average) in five previous meetings.
