Sochaux got only two victories in 10 recent matches in the Ligue 2. They also won in their last game against Nimes with 2:1 scoreline. After 30 gameweeks Sochaux share the 9-12 places in the standings with Le Havre, GFC Ajaccio and Bourg Peronnas recording 41 points gained and 29-28 goal difference. They still keep chances for promotion to the Ligue 1 because of high density in the standings. Sochaux show inconsistent results on the road recording 19 points with 12 goals for and 14 goals against in 15 played matches.
Strasbourg show solid football at their own ground meanwhile Strasbourg are unable to show consistent and strong football in recent matches especially on the road. Thus the hosting side has to beat Sochaux and come up close to the season's leaders in their promotion battle to the Ligue 1.
Prediction for the match: Strasbourg to win.
