Amiens vs Nancy Prediction & Betting Tips (3 January)

On a generally downward slope for several seasons, Amiens will undoubtedly have to wear the warm-up blue during this 2nd part of the exercise or risk experiencing major disappointment. Rather worryingly, Omar Daf's men are only in 14th position in the standings with a very small lead of only 2 points in the red zone. Suffering in the championship, the Picards had suffered 5 defeats in a row before finally finding a smile again by dominating Pau 1-2 on the last day. In the process, the Amiénois were able to put in a good performance to defeat Le Havre 0-2 in the Coupe de France. For its part, Nancy will also be concerned by the race to maintain itself over the coming months.

But this scenario was undoubtedly more predictable for this team which returned to Ligue 2 after 4 long seasons spent at the lower level. After a good start to the year, ASNL then slowed down with a series of 6 defeats in 9 days. That said, Pablo Correa's men finished 2025 well by winning against Clermont 1-0 then defeating Grenoble on penalties in the Coupe de France 1-1, 3-5 TAB. 

A priori, the Amiens staff will have to approach this match without the starters Appiah (lateral), Lô (central), Lobry (1 goal, 2 assists in L2), Mlakar (1 goal in L2) and the young Manitu (1 L2 match) who are continuing their convalescence. In addition, midfielder Monconduit also joined the infirmary while some usual offensive starters like Averlant (3 goals in L2) and Lutin joined their selection to compete in the CAN.

The interesting Kaïboue (4 goals in all competitions) and Hamache (5 TCC goals) are very operational, having scored against Le Havre in the Cup before the break.
