Nantes vs Nancy Prediction 7 September 2026
🔊 Nantes have returned to Ligue 2 after 13 years in Ligue 1 and are bottom with one point from four matches. They made a managerial change right at the start of the season: after losing 2-5 to Rodez, their third defeat in a row, Michel Der Zakarian was sacked. Nancy, in the same period, have picked up seven points and sit fifth.
Head-to-Head
The two sides have met three times in official matches. The aggregate score across those games is 1-5.
Head-to-head statistics Nantes - Nancy
Nantes Team Overview
Nantes appointed Der Zakarian in June, then replaced him with Grégory Poiret as early as 25 August. Poiret had spent the previous two seasons at Red Star, where he led the Parisian club to the Ligue 1 play-offs. His debut in charge was a frustrating one. Away at Guingamp, Nantes found themselves two goals down, fought back to level and then went ahead, only to concede again in the final seconds - a 3-3 draw. Nantes have failed to win at home in six of their last seven matches, and across four league rounds they have conceded 11 goals. Defender Fabien Centonze and forward Kylian Corredor will both miss the match against Nancy. Corredor has scored two of Nantes' six goals this season. The one piece of good news is that Ignatius Ganago and Sékou Doukouré have returned to full training.

Nancy Team Overview
Oswald Tanchot took charge of Nancy at the end of May, replacing Pablo Correa. The Lorrainers picked up just one point from their first two matches, but things turned around after that. They won away at Pau, then ground down Dunkerque while playing with a man extra for over an hour. Brandon Bokango has scored two of the club's three league goals this season. Away from home, Nancy have gone seven consecutive Ligue 2 matches without defeat.
Match Results: Nancy
Corners Prediction
Nantes have taken five corners or fewer at home in 12 of their last 14 matches. There is a chance they will not exceed that figure in the upcoming game either. The pick is Nantes Team Total Corners - Under 5.5.
Correct Score Prediction
The three most likely outcomes are 0-1 (12.18%), 1-1 (12.13%) and 0-2 (9.95%). These figures reflect a strong chance that Nantes either fail to score at all or that the match produces few goals. A 0-1 win for Nancy is the single most probable result, though the probability of a 1-1 draw is almost identical.
⭐ Editor's Prediction
Nantes have failed to win in 14 of their last 15 matches, and the managerial change has not ended that run so far. Nancy have not lost in 11 of their last 12 away matches. Over the last four rounds, the visitors have conceded just one goal. Breaking down that kind of defence will be difficult for the hosts. We do not expect Nantes to pick up their first three points right now. Our bet is Nancy not to lose. Predicted score - 1:1.
