  • Nice are without a win in their last 15 UEFA competition matches (D4 L11).
  • Nice have lost only one of their last six home matches in all competitions (W4 D1).
  • Freiburg are unbeaten in their previous four UEFA competition matches against French teams with three wins and one draw.
  • Freiburg have lost only two of their last 11 UEFA competition matches (W7 D2).
  • Freiburg have lost only two of their last 15 UEFA Europa League group/league matches (W10 D3).

Nice vs Freiburg prediction

Under the management of Lucien Faivre, Nice have begun to overperform in the last month or so after the neglect of their ownership group INEOS, who are focusing on Manchester United. The hosts were beaten 1-0 by Paris Saint-Germain at the Parc des Princes at the weekend due to a 94th minute winner scored by Goncalo Ramos.

Julian Schuster has continued, and perhaps even improved, the remarkable reign of Christian Streich in Badem-Wurttemberg. Freiburg have collected seven points from their three matches so far this season in the UEFA Europa League, albeit they are underwhelming in the Bundesliga.

Freiburg appear very strong in this competition and will take the game to Nice but home advantage for the French outfit makes them also likely to get on the front foot.
