Nice will host St Etienne on 20th September in what promises to be an intriguing Ligue 1 clash at the Allianz Riviera. Nice have been in solid form this season, currently sitting in the upper half of the table, with a well-organized defense that has been difficult for opponents to break down. St Etienne, on the other hand, have had a mixed campaign so far, struggling for consistency.
Both teams are eager to secure crucial points, with Nice looking to continue their strong start, while St Etienne hopes to bounce back from a few disappointing results. Historically, this fixture has seen some closely contested matches, and this game should be no different, with both sides having something to prove.

Nice vs St Etienne Team News
The home team will be keen to maintain their defensive resilience as they welcome back a few key players from injury. Meanwhile, St Etienne have some concerns over fitness and suspensions, with their defense being particularly vulnerable in recent weeks.
- Nice: Key midfielder Khephren Thuram is expected to return from a minor injury, adding stability to the midfield. Their defense is expected to remain unchanged, with Jean-Clair Todibo and Dante forming a solid partnership at the back.
- St Etienne: St Etienne could be without two key defenders, which may force tactical changes. Striker Wahbi Khazri remains doubtful due to a knock picked up in the previous game, which could impact their attacking options.
Probable XI:
Nice XI: Bulka; Atal, Todibo, Dante, Bard; Thuram, Sanson, Boudaoui; Laborde, Moffi, Diop
St Etienne XI: Green; Macon, Sow, Nade, Gabriel Silva; Youssouf, Camara, Aouchiche; Bouanga, Crivelli, Nordin
Verdict
Nice go into this game as slight favorites, given their recent home form and St Etienne’s defensive struggles. With Nice’s strong defense and St Etienne missing key players, it’s likely that the hosts will control the game. Expect Nice to have more possession and St Etienne to struggle in transition.
Nice have been strong at home this season, and St Etienne’s shaky defense and potential absences give the hosts an advantage.
