Nice
Only one team truly needs a victory in this final fixture, and that is Ludogorets.
They are just one point away from the top 24, which would secure qualification for the next stage of the Europa League. Nice, on the other hand, have nothing to gain from this match. Even with a win, the gap to the qualification places remains five points, making progression impossible.
Additionally, Nice arrive with a long injury list, with around 10 players unavailable, and could rotate parts of their starting XI given the lack of importance of this fixture in terms of standings.
What we say
Ludogorets to Win
Ludogorets come into this match with clear motivation and purpose, facing a Nice side that has lost all three away matches in Europe with a 2:7 goal difference, is heavily affected by injuries, and lacks competitive incentive. All factors strongly favor a home victory for Ludogorets.
