Nice's 2025/2026 Ligue 1 Campaign

Nice endured a challenging 2025/2026 campaign in Ligue 1, finishing 16th with 32 points from 34 games. Their record was a patchwork of 7 wins, 11 draws, and 16 losses, signalling a season spent mostly in survival mode. Offensively, the team managed 37 goals but conceded a hefty 60, leaving them with a goal difference of -23 — not the kind of balance that inspires confidence.

Home form was slightly more encouraging with 5 wins and 8 draws, but their struggles intensified away from home, managing just 3 wins against 11 losses. Defensively, only 7 clean sheets were recorded all season, reflecting a leaky backline. While the biggest win streaks remained elusive, the team showed some resilience in grinding out draws.

Looking ahead, Nice will be keen to shore up their defence and find more consistency. The foundations are there, but turning draws into wins and tightening at the back will be crucial if they are to climb the table and avoid another nervy season.

Nice's Ligue 1 2025/2026 Season Form

Nice's campaign in Ligue 1 2025/2026 has been a bit of a rollercoaster, but not quite the thrilling kind. Sitting 16th with 32 points from 34 games, their form has been marked by a tendency to drop points more frequently through defeats than draws, as evidenced by their 16 losses compared to 11 draws. The team has struggled defensively, conceding 60 goals, which has overshadowed their 37 scored.

Their biggest win streak is absent, suggesting a lack of sustained positive runs. Home form has been slightly better with five wins and eight draws, but away results have been less kind, with only three wins and a worrying 11 losses. Overall, consistency has been elusive, with more points lost to defeats than shared in stalemates, making survival a nervy affair for Nice this term.

Nice's Home and Away Performance in Ligue 1 2025/2026

Nice’s home form reveals a slightly sturdier side, with 5 wins and 8 draws from 18 matches, managing 23 goals while conceding 28. Their ability to keep 4 clean sheets at home suggests some defensive resilience, albeit limited.

Away from home, however, the picture is bleaker: just 3 wins and 4 draws in 16 games, coupled with 11 losses. Scoring 18 goals but conceding 33 away indicates defensive vulnerabilities that have been ruthlessly exploited. With only 3 clean sheets on the road, Nice’s defence seems to unravel outside their own grounds.

In short, Nice’s season has been a tale of two cities — more competitive at home but struggling to keep the ship afloat when travelling, a contrast that has contributed to their precarious league position.

Fipster's Record on Nice in the 2025/2026 Ligue 1

Fipster's crystal ball has been a bit cloudy when it comes to Nice this season. With only two fixtures scored, the model hasn't yet delivered a star or a tick, registering two misses instead. Not exactly a sparkling track record, but it’s still early days in building confidence.

Given the club’s struggles this campaign, sitting 16th with a negative goal difference, perhaps the model's caution is justified. Hopefully, Fipster will find its footing soon and start predicting with a bit more flair than a damp squib.
