Match preview
If Nice are to continue in Europe beyond this game, they’ll have to do it the hard way.
Last Thursday, Stipe Perica scored the night’s only goal as Maccabi Tel Aviv ran out 1-0 winners at Bloomfield Stadium.
Will Allianz Riviera witness a comeback or an upset?
Maccabi Tel Aviv are aiming to reach their ninth UEFA group stage, looking to qualify for a third successive season.
So far, the Yellows have ousted Zira and Aris Thessaloniki, needing just a draw in Southern France to finish the job.
However, they’ve only won one of four two-legged knockout ties this century and haven’t got through a European tie when losing the first leg since 1959.
With summer signings Kasper Schmeichel and Aaron Ramsey in their line-up though, it would be a major disappointment if Lucien Favre’s team were to fall here.
