Angers vs Strasbourg Predictions and Odds
Angers will look to find the right balance in avoiding being defeated by the only team in the league who hasn't won a game.

Draw
Strasbourg is second from bottom, a strange circumstance for a team that lost ‘only' four times this season. But, the reason for that placement is simple, they are the only team in the league without a victory. The visitors have drawn five games which is the highest mark in the league, while the Angers had two drawn matches under their belt. Their h2h record suggests another close encounter, last season the visitors won on both occasions in close games, and the last time these teams drew a game was in the second part of the 2020/21 season.
Under 2.5 Goals
Maybe it's strange to suggest an under 2.5 goals game when a team, in this case, Angers, is one of the best ‘over' teams in the league. They crossed that mark in seven out of their nine games while Strasbourg only did it three times, and in that category, they are second from the bottom. But, the case with Angers is that they allowed 21 goals while scoring only nine. In their h2h matches, the last five matches ended with a low-scoring game

Strasbourg searching for a first win of the season
Angers will relish an opportunity to search for their third win of the season while their opponents need one to finally check that mark. But, Angers will draw confidence in wins against Montpellier and Nice that happened just before the international break. Last weekend they lost at home to favorites Marseille 3-0 which wasn't all that surprising. Angers has some squad problems, but the most important player on the team is available, Sofiane Boufal who is the team's best scorer with three goals, and he also has two assists, another highest mark on the team.
Angers probable starting lineup: Fofana, Doumbia, Blazic, Hountondji, Valery, Boufal, Bentaleb, Mendy, Ounahi, Hunou, Sima.
Strasbourg has only scored seven goals this season, and four of those came from Habib Diallo who will be, fortunately for the visitors, available to face Angers. However, coach Julien Stephan has a lot of problems with players missing action, six of them won't be able to participate in this important game, and attacking-minded players like Ludovic Ajorque and Adrien Thomasson will be especially missed.
Strasbourg probable starting lineup: Sels, Le Marchand, Perrin, Djiku, Lienard, Belegarde, Prcic, Sissoko, Dagba, Diallo, Gameiro.
Team News:
Angers: Ali Kalla, Lois Diony, and Ulrick Eneme-Ella are injured.
Strasbourg: Ronael Pierre-Gabriel, Lebo Mothiba, Ludovic Ajorque, Adrien Thomasson, and Eiji Kawashima will miss the game through injury, while Gerzino Nyamsi is suspended.
