Both these teams come into this Matchday 16 encounter handily placed to challenge for the European qualifying places. Nice are in 4th spot with 27 points after 16 games while Strasbourg are in 6th position with 23 points. The home team will be in buoyant mood after drawing their last match 0-0 to much fancied PSG. The draw ended PSG's perfect home record this season. The home team are currently in a Europa League spot but the league is very congested as just five points separate them in fourth position and the team in 10th position. Nice have been disappointing at home as its now three home matches without a win after losing the last two games at home. They have also failed to score in those losses. They have not gone three successive home matches without scoring since 2009.

Strasbourg are having one of their best seasons in recent years and their 23 points tally after 16 matches is their best since the 2002/03 season. They are on a good run of form and are undefeated in their last five matches. If they continue that good form and win this match they will be just one point behind Nice on the table. Strasbourg are just three points away from one of the European positions. Their good season could have been so much better if they could improve on their away record. They have had seven away matches with just one win to go along three draws and three losses.
