Guingamp take on the visitors Strasbourg at "Stade de Roudourou" in the gameweek four of the French Ligue 1. The match will be played on Sunday, August 27th.
Due to the complicated calendar on the start of the season, Guingamp have gained only three points in the first rounds after 3:1 triumph over Metz and defeats to the clubs which occupied the second and the third places in the Ligue 1 last season: 0:3 to Paris SG and 0:2 to Nice correspondingly. In general "Las Costarmoricains" are the home side as in 2017 they lost only four out of 12 clashes at their own turf alongside with seven victories and single draw taken.

After their promotion from the Ligue 2 Strasbourg keep on showing convincing play the new level: having been smashed 0:4 by Lyon at away pitch, they learnt the lesson and then gained 3:0 win over Lille and 1:1 draw against Montpellier in the next two encounters of the season. Strasbourg come up to the matchup with four-game no-win series on the road covering three draws and a defeat.
Surprisingly but the statistics of the teams' head-to-heads is on Strasbourg's side, however, Guingamp have become stronger than their opponents, having been playing in the elite division in recent years while the visiting club was performing in the lower divisions. I believe that "Las Costarmoricains" are quite able to prove their home team status and pick up three points in the Sunday clash. That's what the team made last season in its battles against the equal rivals.
Prediction for the match: Guingamp to win.
