Lyon-Strasbourg

As Lyon and Strasbourg prepare to face off, both teams bring mixed recent form into this encounter. Lyon, who have struggled in their last games, especially in attack, are coming off a string of disappointing results with significant defeats against Monaco, Rennes, and Arsenal. Their only recent bright spot was a victory over Union Berlin, though their overall performances suggest vulnerabilities in both defense and offense.

Strasbourg, on the other hand, has shown a bit more resilience recently. After a close call against Montpellier and a surprising win against Rennes, they seem poised to capitalize on Lyon’s defensive frailties. Even though they faced setbacks against Borussia Monchengladbach and Freiburg, their ability to find the back of the net consistently will be key.

Historically, the head-to-head between these teams has been competitive, with both sides claiming victories in the recent past. Strasbourg’s triumph in their last encounter against Lyon away will provide them with confidence.

Given Lyon’s inability to keep clean sheets recently and Strasbourg’s attacking prowess, both teams are likely to score. While Lyon’s home advantage might give them some hope, Strasbourg’s current momentum makes them a formidable opponent. Expect the match to have a decent number of goals, likely over 2.5, as Strasbourg could edge out Lyon in this tightly contested match.
