Bookmaker Ratings prediction one – X2 and Total Goals over 1.5 – 1.75
Bookmaker Ratings prediction two – Total Goals over 2.5 – 1.57
The last chance for Saint-Etienne to grab at least a Ligue 1 playoff spot. For that, the Les Verts need to win and hope that Metz will drop points against PSG. Certainly, coach Pascal Dupraz will use that to motivate his players against the Coupe de France winners.
However, it might be too risky to go for St Etienne’s win outcome considering their poor form. Therefore we will offer a less risky bet, which covers the visitor’s double chance and total goals over 1.5.
Both sides’ last five matches saw more than 2.5 goals scored. Thus, we think the trend will continue in this match.
Nantes have enjoyed a fairly decent season, and it’s fancied that head coach Antoine Kombouaré will be pretty happy with his side’s top 10 finish in Ligue 1.
However, the happiest thing that happened this season is Nantes secured their fourth Coupe de France. The Canaris beat Nice 1-0 in the final match to win their first trophy since 2001.
In addition, Nantes qualified for the UEFA Europa League group stage by winning the Coupe de France.

On the other hand, Saint-Etienne come into this match with the hope of grabbing 3 points, as they still have a chance to catch a playoff spot.
18th placed Metz, and St Etienne have 31 points, but it is the Les Grenats who will occupy the position of a playoff at the kick-off of the last matchday thanks to a better goal difference.
Meanwhile, the visitors are in poor form, as they lost the last four league games. The bad news is that their most recent away victory came in February when they beat Clermont (2:1).
Match Facts
- There have been over 2.5 goals scored in Nantes’s previous 5 Ligue 1 matches
