The final day of the 2024/25 Ligue 1 season arrives on 17 May 2025, as OGC Nice host Stade Brestois 29 at the Allianz Riviera Stadium. With the title race already decided, all eyes are on the battle for fourth place and a coveted Champions League qualification spot.
Kick-off is set for 21:00 CEST in Italy, Germany, France and Spain, and at 20:00 BST in the UK. This clash promises plenty of drama as both sides look to end their campaigns on a high.
How are both teams coming into this?
Nice arrive level on points with Lille and Strasbourg, locked in a three-way fight for fourth place. After a late push in April, they’ll be determined to maintain momentum at home and secure Champions League qualification for next season.
Brest, safe from relegation, approach this fixture with less at stake. Their focus has shifted to finishing comfortably mid-table, but they’ll be keen to spoil Nice’s party and pick up a positive result on the road.
Our forecast
With everything to play for, Nice should dominate possession and create the clearer chances. Playing in front of their home crowd, they have the quality to break down a resilient Brest defence.
That said, Brest have shown they can be tough to beat away from home. We expect a competitive first half, but a late push from Nice could see them edge a narrow victory and claim the all-important fourth spot.
