Comprehensive Prediction Analysis:
Nice's performance is worrying. The team was double-killed by Benfica in the Champions League qualifiers, losing 0-2 in both games and failing to qualify. In Ligue 1, Nice's form has been inconsistent, alternating between wins and losses. At home, they have achieved good results such as a 3-1 victory over Auxerre and a 1-0 victory over Nantes, but they have suffered consecutive defeats away, losing to Toulouse, Le Havre and Brest. Coach Franck Haise is facing significant challenges. The loss of players during the summer transfer window has greatly weakened the team's strength. Although Marcin Bułka was once an excellent goalkeeper, the new goalkeeper Yevan Diouf has performed poorly, and the stability of the defense will drop sharply; the team also has problems in the attack. Once relying on the forward combination of Evan Guessand and Gaëtan Laborde, the current players lack tacit understanding and goal-scoring instinct, making the team's attack seem weak. Such performance makes the team more struggling when facing a well-organized defensive opponent like Roma.
As for Roma, although they have performed well in defense, especially recently defeating Bologna, Pisa and Lazio with a 1-0 scoreline, their attack efficiency is worrying. The team has no major problems in organizing attacks and can create scoring opportunities, but their poor finishing makes it difficult for them to break the deadlock. The absence of Paulo Dybala has hit the team particularly hard, while new signing Evan Ferguson has yet to open his goal account. The injury crisis has severely affected Roma's squad depth, and the team has to make adjustments in tactical arrangements.
Summary:
Based on the current situation, although Nice has certain home advantages when playing at home, their unstable performance makes it difficult to overestimate their chances of winning. Roma, although poor in the attack, has a solid defense that prevents them from being defeated away. In terms of Asian Handicap, the initial odds opened a draw between the two teams, but later, under the influence of external factors, Roma became overheated, and the current odds have come to Roma -0.25. Although Nice is in poor form, Roma may not have a sure win in terms of strength, especially when playing away. Therefore, considering the recent performance of both sides, it is expected that this game is likely to end in a draw, and Nice is expected to defend their home ground.
