- Competition: Europa League
- Date: Thursday, 7th November 2024
- Kickoff: 17:45 UK / 18:45 CET
- Venue: Allianz Riviera (Nice)
Nice surely expected more than one point after three rounds in the Europa League. In the French Ligue 1, they are solidly in fifth place after ten rounds. Nice struggled in September and October, but in the last two matches, Franck Haise's team secured big wins against Monaco and Brest. Nice struggled offensively in the previous weeks, but two wins against two Champions League teams could help the team get out of the slump.
Like Nice, Twente are also without a victory in the Europa League. And like Nice, the Dutch team is playing well in the national league. Twente can't compete with a team like PSV for the Eredivisie title, but Joseph Oosting's team is looking capable of fighting for a Champions League spot next season. Twente won the last two matches. Last weekend, they won 1-0 on the road against Willem II. The home side finished the game with xG of 0.49, while guests had 2.07, so Twente could even won with a more significant margin.
Nice vs Twente pick: Under 2.5 goals
Nice scored five goals in the last five matches. On the other hand, Twente didn't allow any goals in the previous two games. We should expect two or fewer goals in the upcoming Europa League clash at Allianz Riviera.
Nice team news
Nice's Pablo Rosario got a red card in the previous Europa League round and will serve suspension on Thursday against Nice. He will join injured Hichem Boudaoui and Teremas Moffi, while Morgan Samson is questionable and his status will be clearer closer to the kickoff.
