Team Reviews
OGC Nice are entering this UEFA Europa League League Phase Matchday 1 clash at Allianz Riviera on September 24, 2025, in inconsistent form, sitting 12th in Ligue 1 with 6 points from five matches (1 win, 3 draws, 1 loss). Their recent form shows two wins, two draws, and one loss in their last five matches across all competitions, including a 1-0 Ligue 1 win over FC Nantes and a 4-1 loss at Brest. They’ve scored six goals and conceded seven in Ligue 1, averaging 1.2 goals scored and 1.4 conceded per game. At home, Nice are strong, winning their last two league matches (2-1 vs. Toulouse, 1-0 vs. Nantes), with goalkeeper Yehvann Diouf keeping one clean sheet. Coach Franck Haise’s 3-4-2-1 relies on Jérémie Boga’s flair (one goal, one assist) and Terem Moffi’s finishing (two goals). Injuries to Dante (knee), Tanguy Ndombele (muscle), Ali Abdi (thigh), Djibril Coulibaly (ankle), and Youssouf Ndayishimiye (hamstring) are significant concerns, but Sofiane Diop is available. Nice will leverage their home crowd to press high and exploit Roma’s defensive vulnerabilities, aiming to improve on last season’s dismal Europa League campaign (35th, three points).
AS Roma are in decent form, sitting 5th in Serie A with 7 points from four matches (2 wins, 1 draw, 1 loss). Their recent form includes three wins, one draw, and one loss in their last five, with a 1-0 Serie A win over Lazio and a 0-1 loss at Torino. They’ve scored five goals and conceded three, averaging 1.3 goals scored and 0.8 conceded per game. Away form is inconsistent, with one win in their last three road games (1-0 at Lazio). Coach Gian Piero Gasperini’s 3-4-1-2 depends on Lorenzo Pellegrini’s creativity (one goal) and Evan Ferguson’s finishing (one goal). Injuries to Paulo Dybala (thigh), Leon Bailey (thigh), Wesley Vinícius (stomach), and Edoardo Bove (heart issue), plus doubts over Mario Hermoso (fitness), weaken their squad. Roma will aim to stay compact and counter Nice’s intensity, seeking their first Europa League win of the season in their fourth consecutive campaign.
Head to Head
Nice and Roma have met once, in a 2022 friendly that ended in a 1-1 draw, with no competitive history. That match saw limited scoring chances, averaging 2.0 goals, suggesting a potentially tight game. Nice’s home resilience (no losses in last four competitive home games) gives them a slight psychological edge, but Roma’s experience in this competition (quarter-finalists last season, 2023 winners) makes them a formidable opponent. With no recent competitive data, both teams’ current form (Nice averaging 1.6 goals, Roma 1.8 in all competitions) indicates a balanced, potentially low-scoring contest.
Prediction
Nice’s strong home form and Roma’s injury concerns make this a close contest, but Roma’s superior experience and tactical discipline under Gasperini give them a slight edge. I predict a 1-1 draw, with Boga or Moffi likely scoring for Nice and Pellegrini or Ferguson replying for Roma. Roma’s win-or-draw probability is around 55%, reflecting their 1-0 Lazio win and Nice’s 4-1 Brest loss. Expect Roma to edge possession (around 51%) and corners (6-8 projected), with Nice’s counters posing a threat. The game should see both teams’ wingers testing defenses, with Nice’s depleted squad struggling to break Roma’s compact setup, leading to a stalemate to open their Europa League campaigns.
