Strasbourg will be aiming to secure their first win over Nice in six meetings when the two sides face off at the Stade de la Meinau on Saturday.
Le Racing are chasing a place in European competition next season and will look to make full use of their strong home form, having already recorded seven victories on their own turf.
Nice, meanwhile, sit 15th in the table and, while not in immediate danger of relegation, a run of poor results could quickly pull them into trouble.

Strasbourg are pushing for a return to European football after a dramatic upturn in form, going unbeaten in their last nine matches across all competitions.

Both teams have scored in eight of Strasbourg’s last 10 matches, which makes BTTS - Yes at 1.95 a particularly tempting pick.
