Prediction published on 05/10/2023, 03:34  by Daniel Ngulu in Ligue 1 Predictions

Strasbourg and Nantes will be looking to bounce back from earlier defeats when they meet in Ligue 1. Ahead of this game Strasbourg have 10 points, in eighth place and Nantes are 13th on eight points. Strasbourg arrive for this game straight from a 1-0 loss to Lens; their second defeat in five league matches. That loss also marked the second time in four matches that they failed to score. This season, in Ligue 1, Strasbourg have managed seven goals in seven games. All their goals have come in the second half of their matches. Their recent form at home isn’t as strong as it was in the early stages but they’ve shown great signs there. In their four home league matches, Strasbourg have two wins and one loss. In their first three home league games this season, they scored at least two goals.

This will not go down as Nantes’ favorite fixture. They have no win over Strasbourg in the last four meetings, losing twice. In the last nine meetings with Strasbourg, Nantes have managed just one win. Coming into this game, Nantes will be hoping to improve on their 3-1 loss away to Rennes. In that game, they finished with 10 men, after Mostafa Mohamed’s sending off late on. From their performances in the last four matches, Nantes have shown they aren’t strong starters. They’ve conceded first in three of their last four matches but they’ve scored in each of their last five matches. Nantes will also look to do better away from home, following their three defeats in four away league games. They have just one win in 10 away league matches.
