Strasbourg vs Angers Prediction

Strasbourg Form

Strasbourg are currently performing inconsistently, as they lost against Rennes by a 3-0 score, before winning 2-0 against Montpellier. They lost again in their most recent match, this time 2-0 against Lille. In their last six Ligue 1 matches at home, Strasbourg have one win, while they've drawn three and lost two.

Angers Form

Having collected three points from their previous three matches without winning, Angers are on the lookout for a win again. Against Lorient, they settled for a 0-0 draw, before splitting the points with Nantes in a 1-1 draw. In their latest match, they once again had to settle for a single point after drawing 1-1 against Auxerre. In their last six Ligue 1 away matches, Angers failed to win even once. In stead, they've drawn one and lost five, scoring zero while also conceding ten times.

We've thought long and hard which bet offers the best price at the bookies, as the match against Angers could turn out a bit slippery for Strasbourg. Considering form and strength in squad, we nevertheless ended up siding with the latter on Saturday.

Strasbourg won four points from their last five encounters with teams from the bottom six, like their upcoming opponent. They won one, scored eight and let in 11 goals. Angers claimed zero wins from eight goals scored and 19 conceded from their past eight matches against teams placed in the bottom six. This handed them two points to their account. Strasbourg are looking at a record of three wins, nine draws and 11 defeats in the Ligue 1 this season. Angers show off two wins, four draws and 17 defeats in the Ligue 1.
