Angers vs Nantes Prediction & Betting Tips - French Cup
by Devesh Jaganath | in French Cup Predictions
We’re getting to the business end of the Coupe de France, and in a bumper midweek of fixtures, our featured game will see Angers host fellow Ligue 1 rivals, Nantes, in the first Round of 16 match at Stade Raymond Kopa on Wednesday evening. The cup competition has been the brief high point of the season so far for the home side, who are rooted to the bottom of the league table. They have only managed 9 points in 22 matches this season, recording just two wins, three draws, and a whopping 17 losses. Their last match ended in a stalemate against Lorient, which was their 14th consecutive match without a win in the league. Angers have had a relatively easy path thus far in the cup, overcoming FCOSK06 1-0 in the last round, following a 0-0 draw to Strasbourg, which Angers needed penalties to decide. The hosts have conceded in 10 consecutive matches coming into this one and may find it difficult against the first Ligue 1 side they meet in this competition.
Nantes is currently 13th in Ligue 1, with 25 points in 22 matches. Despite their relatively low ranking, Nantes has started to show major improvements in recent weeks, pulling themselves clear of the relegation zone and looking to move up a few more spaces as they head into the back end of the season. In their last match, Nantes managed to overcome AC Ajaccio 0-2 away from home, which was their third win in their last six matches in all competitions, along with two draws and one loss. That win marked Nantes' sixth consecutive away match without conceding. The visitors overcame Thaon on penalties in the last round and Vire before that and will want to keep their recent good form on the round going with a win in this one.
