Strasbourg - Lille predictions

Strasbourg have a big mountain to climb. The task ahead is difficult but not impossible but with 2.72 slapped on home win in this match, this one is for the risk-takers.

Lille is a team that doesn't shy away from a challenge and we anticipate them giving their all in this matchup.

Strasbourg are coming on the back of a hard 4:1 loss against Rennes in the previous round. Experts gave their opponents a slight edge which, combined with home-field disadvantage, ended in a surprising 4:1.

Lille are coming off of a close 1:0 victory against Angers SCO. Last round saw them grab an early lead and not let up until the very end – an effective strategy, if a bit dull for the fans at their home stadium.

With 6 concessions over the last 3 matches, Strasbourg will definitely have to make some improvements in their defensive line.

Looking over the visitors and their recent history, we noticed they’ve scored more than 5 goals in their previous 3 appearances. This signals a consistent ability to score in most matchups, which is good news for their supporters.

The home team in this game are off to a decent start in the season, but placement at 7th won’t get them to the Europa League. They’ll need another 1 point for that, and scoring 3 in this challenging matchup would help greatly.

Thanks to a lack of suspensions or injuries, both teams will have their full rosters ready for an exciting game.

An Over 2.5 Goals is a great bet if you like staying on the safe side. The betting value for this market is strong compared even to the 1.75, which makes this an easy betting prediction to make.
