Over 2.5 Goals
Strasbourg is in one kind of streak right now when it comes to ‘over' games, they had seven in a row with three or more goals scored. Lorient had four in their last five matches alone, but they are also at the very top for the most ‘over' matches in the league this season at 11 out of their 14.
Both Teams to Score – Yes
It seems that fatigue is rising in all the teams which is not surprising because the schedule has been hectic these past three months. Leagues around Europe finished almost half the season already to be able to stop play because of the World Cup. Strasbourg and Lorient had enough high-scoring matches to expect that won't change in their latest h2h meeting.
Important information about Strasbourg vs Lorient
Will Strasbourg finally win at home?
There are only two teams in the Ligue 1 who haven't won a home match this season, one of them is Strasbourg, and the other one is Brest. Strasbourg had four draws and three losses in front of their fans, and that bad form put them in the position to fight against relegation to the Second Division. They are also the only team in the league that has only one win the entire season, and that was achieved a month ago against Angers who are the worst team in the league. Strasbourg's defending is all over the place at the moment, in their last three games, they allowed eight goals while scoring six. They had drawn two of those games while losing the last one at Ajaccio when they were leading 2-0 before succumbing to the hosts.
Strasbourg's probable lineup: Sels, Djiku, Nyamsi, Le Marchand, Pierre-Gabriel, Prcic, Bellegarde, Delaine, Diallo, Gameiro, Ajorque.
Lorient's beautiful story has been going the wrong way lately, they are without a win for the past four games, and they have fallen down the rankings from being second-placed to dropping outside the positions that would have taken them to the European competitions next season. They've lost a couple of games in a row, both of them at home, but the last one wasn't all that unexpected because it was against PSG. The one against Nice two weeks ago hurt them as they were leading before halftime and eventually lost.
Lorient's probable lineup: Mvogo, Le Goff, Talbi, Laporte, Kalulu, Innocent, Le Bris, Le Fee, Ponceau, Ouattara, Moffi.
Team News:
Strasbourg: Ibrahima Sissoko, Karol Fila, and Nordine Kandil.
