Strasbourg - Lille predictions

The visitors are aware of the challenge that awaits them. To come out on top against Strasbourg on their own field would be a major achievement, and it is always a tough task.

Out of their home field and heading into this match as underdogs, Lille would need to play their best to have a hope of winning. That said, even a draw would be a positive outcome, and all three results are quite possible.

The 1:1 result at the end of Strasbourg’s previous match against Olympique Marseille was quite surprising. They were considered far weaker than their opponents going in, yet managed to pull ahead in the first half.

Lille’s previous home outing ended in triumph, but the road there wasn’t easy. Their opponents Nice took the lead in the first half, leaving Lille on the back foot despite the initial 2.10 odds on a home win. Their luck was much better later on, though, resulting in a narrow 2:1.

With 6 goals in their previous 3 Ligue 1 matches, Strasbourg’s attacking players have been seeing a lot of success and top bookmakers online are backing them to continue the trend.

With their most recent track record in mind, Lille tend to perform quite well offensively. Their previous 3 home games featured at least 5 goals in total.

These two teams met earlier this season and the final result was a draw. Lille are playing as the away team this time, which puts some doubt as to whether they’ll be able to pull ahead this time. According to the betting odds, though, they’re still the favourites.

Though the visitors are favourites here, it’s important to note they’ll be playing without Edon Zhegrova, Nabil Bentaleb, Samuel Umtiti, Ethan Mbappé Lottin due to injury. On the flip side, the hosts will also be several players short – namely, Thomas Delaine, Dion Moise Sahi, Alaa Bellaarouch have also reported injuries.

The risks involved in backing a BTTS bet for this match are minimal. Both Strasbourg and Lille have a history of confirming the market so the 1 odds offered at 1xbet is too good to pass up.
