Ferencvaros Nice prediction 2024-10-24

Ferencvaros vs Nice prediction: EUROPE: Europa League – League phase betting tips on match 2024-10-23 16:45.
[p]Ferencváros lost their last three UEFA Europa League (UEL) main-draw matches in 2022/23, and the revamped league phase hasn’t brought about a change of fortune in Europe’s second-tier competition for the Hungarians, who have tasted defeat in both games so far this term going down 2-1 against both Anderlecht and Tottenham Hotspur.[/p]

[p]Thankfully for Pascal Jansen’s men, they did earn a morale-boosting 2-0 domestic league win over Fehérvár on Sunday to go back top of the table, after a loss in their prior domestic match made it three defeats in four competitive games. And even if they head into this matchday three fixture with Nice as outsiders, an unbeaten record against French sides (W1, D1) should offer them some cause for optimism. [/p]

[p]Nice are barely doing better than their upcoming opponents in Europe this season, having drawn 1-1 with Real Sociedad before a painful 4-1 loss at Lazio. Those results come amid a frustrating winless run in all competitions for the Eaglets (D4, L1), who would have been expecting to build on the euphoria of an 8-0 trouncing of Saint-Étienne last month. [/p]

[p]Nice can at least look to recent European success for inspiration, as they enjoyed their joint-furthest run ever in continental competition just two seasons ago when reaching the quarter-finals of the UEFA Europa Conference League. But to illustrate the turnover of players since then, along with current injury issues, only three of the men who started the last-eight second leg against Basel in 2022/23 began the meeting with Lazio earlier this month.[/p]

[p]Players to watch: Kady Borges has netted in both of Ferencváros’ last two games, although he has ended up on the winning side in just three of his last six scoring appearances (D1, L2). Evann Guessand equalised for Nice at the weekend against Nantes, but don’t expect him to have an early impact here, as his last 19 goals have all come on or beyond the 35th minute. [/p]

[p]Hot streak: Ferencváros have scored after half-time in each of their last eight matches. [/p]
