Strasbourg

WLLLDD

Strasbourg head into this game following a 0-0 Ligue 1 drawn match versus Clermont Foot.

In that game, Strasbourg had 39% possession and 17 attempts on goal with 4 of them on target. Clermont Foot got 10 shots at goal with 2 of them on target.

Strasbourg haven’t made the most of their chances in more recent games. Their sum of goals stands at just 3 against opponents during the course of their previous 6 matches. In those games, Strasbourg have also seen the number of goals scored against them come to 7.

Pre-game facts show that Strasbourg:

• haven't been beaten in the league by Marseille in their last 2 matches.
• haven't won against Marseille in their previous 15 league games. That has got to hurt.
• are without a home win in the past 4 league matches. That's never good.

Marseille

WLWDWL

Following on from a loss in their previous game against RC Lens in Ligue 1 action, Marseille and their travelling fans will hope for a better result here.

In that match, Marseille managed 53% possession and 8 attempts at goal with 2 of them on target. On the other side, Lens got 14 attempts at goal with 3 on target. Jonathan Gradit (90') scored for RC Lens.

The trend of at least one team not scoring a goal in games involving Marseille has become fairly consistent in recent matches. Examining their last six games reveals that this has happened 5 times. During those clashes, opposing sides have managed a goal tally of 3 while Marseille have scored 8. That kind of pattern might not be carried forward into this match, however.

Looking at the pre-match facts, Marseille:

• haven't been defeated by Strasbourg in games played away from home for the previous 7 league games. A very good run of results for them.
• are without an away win for the past 9 matches in the league. Their travelling support will be needed here, for sure.

🗞️ Team News: Strasbourg

There’s just a single fitness concern for the Strasbourg manager Patrick Vieira to be concerned about from an otherwise complete set of players. Karol Fila (Cruciate ligament tear) won’t play.

We think that Le Racing should employ a 4-2-3-1 system this time, handing starts to Matz Sels, Frederic Guilbert, Gerzino Nyamsi, Lucas Perrin, Eduard Sobol, Ismael Doukoure, Ibrahima Sissoko, Angelo Gabriel, Dion Sahi, Lebo Mothiba and Emanuel Emegha.

🗞️ Team News: Marseille

Owing to an otherwise healthy group of players, there’s only the sole fitness problem for the Marseille gaffer Gennaro Gattuso to be concerned about. Valentin Rongier (Broken kneecap) won’t be playing here.

We’re of the thinking that Les Olympiens might play in a 4-2-3-1 lineup, starting the game with Pau Lopez, Jonathan Clauss, Chancel Mbemba, Leonardo Balerdi, Renan Lodi, Geoffrey Kondogbia, Jordan Veretout, Ismaila Sarr, Amine Harit, Joaquin Correa and Vitor Oliveira.

💭 Prediction

We’re envisaging that Strasbourg may well find it hard to score against this Marseille lineup who should emerge victorious.

We’re therefore predicting a very competitive encounter with a 0-1 winning score for Marseille at the conclusion of the game.

It should be a good one.
