Strasbourg vs Lorient Prediction

Strasbourg form

It is neither good nor disastrous for Strasbourg with just two points from their last three matches. They first drew 2-2 against Toulouse, followed by another draw. This time 2-2 against Marseille, before going down in a 4-2 defeat against AC Ajaccio. Strasbourg did not win any of their last six Ligue 1 matches at the Stade de la Meinau. They came through these matches with a record of four draws and two defeats, in which they conceded ten and scored five goals.

A mid-table finish seemed likely for Strasbourg but in current form they could be dragged into a relegation battle.

Lorient Form

A draw is all that prevents Lorient from having nothing to show for their previous three games. They claimed a point in a 2-2 draw against Troyes before getting trounced against Nice by a 1-2 score. Last time out, more disappointment followed as PSG ran out 1-2 winners. Lorient managed a decent return of three wins in their last six Ligue 1 away matches, in which they scored 12 while also conceding 11 times. They also experienced two draws and one defeat.

Few would have predicted Lorient to perform as well as they done silencing talk of relegation with nice performances.
