Angers SCO vs OGC Nice

Angers host Nice on Sunday with the two clubs a long way apart in the early Ligue 1 table. Nice are eighth on 14 points from nine games, while Angers sit 15th on 8 points and a goal difference of minus eight. Nice have won four of their last five, the latest a 5-2 home win over Rennes in which Elye Wahi scored three. That took him to six league goals this season, the most in the squad, and Jonathan Clauss and Mohamed Amoura have two each. Angers have lost four of their last five, including 5-1 at Brest, 5-2 at home to Marseille and 2-0 at Lyon last weekend. Prosper Peter and Amine El Ouazzani lead their scoring with two apiece. The history favours the visitors too. Nice have ten wins in 20 league meetings, Angers four, with six draws. Nice won 2-0 in March, though Angers took the December meeting 1-0. Our prediction: 1-2
