Expert Betting Tips

For some reason, bookmakers see Nice as the clear favorite, while we think it otherwise. Strasbourg is a good team that can put up a fight. And besides, they haven't lost in five games in a row, while Nice lost their last two home games to relatively modest Montpellier and Metz, 0-1 each. In general, we think the visitors will score at least one point, so we bet on their double chance.

Prediction: Strasbourg will not lose.
