Preview
Nice eye a hat-trick of wins when they face Nantes in their next league match on Sunday.
The visitors head into this after beating Bordeaux 4-0 in their last match prior to the international break.
Kluivert broke the deadlock before Gouiri added a brace before half time and Thuram-Ulien scored five minutes from time to complete a thumping win.
This was a successive 4-0 win for the Nice side, which sent them to the 6th place in the points table.
On the other hand, Nantes lost their previous match 1-0 to Lyon and have now lost successive league matches.
Dembele’s first half strike was enough as Nantes could not get things back in control.
After 4 matches, Nantes has registered just a sole win while losing 2 and drawing 1. Hence, this is their chance to get into some momentum with a positive performance.
Both sides last met in April where Nice won 2-1 away from home through Dolberg’s first half brace.
