Thus, the start of Strasbourg in Ligue 1 is very bad. 5 matches are behind, and Strasbourg lost to Rennes and PSG, which are now in the top 2.

In the first round, Nantes lost to Lille deservedly, having played weakly in the defensive third. Nantes dominated against Marseille in the second half but failed to score, and the match ended with a 0-0 score. But then three consecutive victories followed. Now Nantes is located on the 3rd place and has 10 points, outranking Marseille by a better goal difference.
Strasbourg will have outrageous motivation. The team needs to correct the current situation because it is in the relegation zone now. Conversion of attempts is far from the strongest side of both teams, so we shouldn’t expect the abundance of goals. In this segment, Strasbourg in league 1 has no equal in the air, having won 63.2% of air fights. Nantes played two matches away – it lost to Lille (2-1) but remained in the majority after 31 minutes of the game against Amiens and managed to win with a 2-1 score. Most likely, Strasbourg will not lose this game and the match will not exceed 5 goals.
Prediction for the match: Strasbourg to win with +0.5 handicap and Under 5.5 goals scored
