Strasbourg take on the visitors PSG in the round 20 match of French Ligue 1. The match will be played on Friday, February 2nd at Stade de la Meinau (Strasbourg).
Strasbourg, under the guidance of Patrick Vieira, looks simply magnificent. Considering their level and budget, neither the game nor the results of the team can be criticized. Currently, Strasbourg are positioned in the tenth place in the middle of the table and has suffered only one defeat in the last ten matches. However, for the prediction, what matters is not this, but the team's effectiveness in blue and white jerseys. For eight consecutive rounds, they have scored at least one goal per game. The Both Teams to Score bet, imagine, has hit in 9 out of the last 10 Ligue 1 matches involving Strasbourg. For example, during the winter break, the team secured home victories against Le Havre and Lille, both with an identical score of 2-1. In January, they shared points first with Marseille (1-1) and then with Clermont (1-1).

PSG players also enjoy playing on Over 2.5 goals, and they do it often. Luis Enrique's charges are the best in the league in terms of attack, but the reliability in defense has never been a strong suit for Parisians. Often playing aggressively upfront, the team tends to forget about their own goal. Moreover, the fact that PSG's competitors in the national championship appear once every five years often leads to the best club in the country becoming complacent and dropping points where they shouldn't. Especially when it comes to conceding goals. In the last three league matches in December, Enrique's players played three times on Over 2.5 goals: victories against Nantes (2-1) and Metz (3-1), and a draw with Lille (1-1). In the most recent round, PSG, leading 2-0 against Brest at home, allowed the opponent to escape defeat (2-2).
PSG are practically always considered the clear favorite in any French league match, which is not surprising. Therefore, one can always expect at least one or two goals from Parisians. Strasbourg are having an excellent season, and there is no way to criticize the team. Therefore, it would not be surprising if they even compete with the giants for points. Moreover, I believe even more in a precise strike from the hosts. Therefore, I suggest not to delve into the match outcome. No matter how you twist it, the visitors are objectively a class above. However, PSG often likes to play unpredictably. Therefore, the most logical bet for this match, in my opinion, is Both Teams to Score. By the way, it successfully landed in five out of the last six head-to-head meetings between these opponents, including the last three on Strasbourg's field (1-4, 3-3, 1-1).
Prediction for the match: Both teams to score – yes.
