Nice vs Rangers Prediction & Betting Tips (28 November)

Le Gym is not satisfied with its debut in this Europa League . Because after 4 contested days, he still has not won a single victory in this competition and he has only taken 2 points over this period. Engaging from the start against Real Sociedad 1-1, the Aiglons then delivered 2 particularly average performances against Lazio 4-1 and Ferencvaros 1-0. Finally, on the last day, Franck Haise's players showed character to come back to score, outnumbered, against Twente 2-2. Despite everything, they remain behind in the rankings, only in 31st place out of 36, 2 units from the top 24, qualifying for the play-offs. On the national scene, the Azuréens are rather consistent and they are in 6th position in the ranking. Victorious ahead of Monaco 2-1 and Brest 0-1, the Niçois then snatched the equalizer against Lille 2-2 before the break and they welcome Strasbourg on Sunday to try to get closer to the top 4.

Opposite, the Rangers have much better negotiated their first meetings in this Europa League as the Gym. The Scots were indeed able to glean 2 successes during the first 3 days played against Malmö 0-2, Lyon defeated 1-4 and Steaua Bucharest 4-0 before taking a good point on the field of Olympiakos during from their last match 1-1. With 10 points in the bag, the Glasgow players are ideally placed, in 10th position in the Europa League standings. At the same time, the picture is a little less encouraging in the league for Rangers who are only in 3rd position in the Scottish Premier League, already 9 points behind the leader, Celtic. Victorious before the break against Hearts 1-0, they welcome Dundee next weekend. 

Both on the way back, the long-term injured midfielders Morgan Sanson and Hichem Boudaoui will not be available for this poster. The Egyptian defender Abdelmomen, the Tunisian left-back Abdi and the young Antoine Mendy complete the list of absentees for this meeting while the young Sofiane Diop will be suspended after being sent off during the last day against Twente. Author of 6 goals in the league, the young Ivorian Guessand is the Aiglons' best offensive weapon at the start of the season but he has not yet scored in C3 unlike his compatriot Boga who has scored twice in this competition. Against Twente, the hopeful Cho was able to equalize at the end of the match. The Rangers also deplore a few absences for this poster.

Indeed, the Turkish defender Yilmaz and the attackers Matondo (2 goals in the league), Cortes and Lawrence (3 goals in the league, 2 in the Europa League) will not be operational. Otherwise, the Scots should be able to align most of their executives for this trip to the Allianz Rivera. On the offensive side, we should certainly find the Czech international Cerny who has scored a whopping 4 goals in the Scottish Premier League this season along with the Nigerian Dessers. The Czech also scored twice in this Europa League.
