Team News, Preview, and Strasbourg vs Ajaccio Lineups

Strasbourg

The home team has the most chances of surviving the season in Ligue 1 out of all four teams currently in the relegation zone, but they lack wins. With only five for the season that seems to be not enough at the current state. They had eleven draw matches and plenty of points were lost during those games. Dimitri Lienard, Maxime Le Marchand, and Eiji Kawashima are injured while Habib Diallo will miss the match via suspension.

Expected lineup: Sels, Nyamsi, Djiku, Doukoure, Guilbert, Diarra, Sissoko, Sobol, Sanson, Bellegarde, Gameiro.

Ajaccio

Losing five straight games in this part of the season is proving to be crucial for the visiting team as they are facing more pressure for their Ligue 1 survival. They are a team with the fewest draws while also having the second-most losses at 21. Ajaccio doesn't have health concerns with the team, but there are two suspended players: Mohamed Youssouf and Clement Vidal. There are further problems for coach Olivier Panataloni who is in desperate need of some who can score goals and give the team a chance of winning a match.

Expected lineup: Leroy, Kone, Gonzalez, Mayembo, Alphonse, Spadanuda, Coutadeur, Marchetti, Barreto, Hamouma, El Idrissy.
