Villefranche vs Nimes Prediction & Betting Tips (27 September)

Villefranche have not been in the best of form on their own patch recently, winning just two of their previous 10 top-flight matches, and the Seagulls have actually been beaten in four of their last six home games. Nimes, by way of contrast, have enjoyed eight wins in 10 the National fixtures of late, and they have splashed the cash on new players this summer.

seven of the previous 10 Nimes away matches had been of the under 2.5 goals variety, and the coach charges are past masters at keeping things tight in National. As for Villefranche, all five of their home games have served up no more than two goals.

At least one of the two keepers has emerged with a clean sheet from 10 of the most recent 16 Villefranche matches on their own patch in the National, so thrills and spills have been few and far between. Given that seven of the previous ten Nimes away games at this level have followed the same pattern, any deviation from this script would come as a shock.
