RC Strasbourg vs Angers Prediction: Angers are the poorest team for a reason

Strasbourg are miles away from a solid team after falling to defeats after wins recently. Angers are worse than Strasbourg recently as they have suffered consecutiv defeats. Strasbourg now welcome Angers to the Stade de la Meinau for the French Ligue 1 match.

Strasbourg enter this match following a 2-0 defeat against Lille and Angers drew 1-1 against AJ Auxerre. A win for either side is crucial for their battle for survival from relegation.

RC Strasbourg are currently in 17th spot and they are under threat of relegation, if their position does not improve. They are 1 point away from leaving the relegation zone, which makes this clash crucial. RC Strasbourg have 3 wins, 9 draws and 11 defeats, with 18 points. At home, Strasbourg have just 1 win, 6 draws and 5 defeats, with 9 points. 

In their last 5 Ligue 1 matches, Strasbourg have 2 wins and 3 defeats. Stats shows, RC 3has seen less than 4.5 cards in ⅞ matches.

Angers are the poorest team in the division. They lie in 20th with 10 points from 23 matches. They have 2 wins, 4 draws and 17 defeats this season. Away from home, they have 1 win, 2 draws and 8 losses in all 11 away matches this season. 

Angers have recorded 3 defeats and 2 draws and in their last 5 Ligue 1 matches. Angers have no wins in 5 matches and have seen less than 4.5 cards in 9/10 matches.

Between these two teams, 16 matches have been played. Angers lead with 7 wins while RC Strasbourg have 4 wins and 5 matches ended in a draw.

In 6/7 matches between them, less than 2.5 goals was scored and in ⅞ matches, less than 4.5 cards was shown.

Neither of these sides are interesting to watch. So we can expect a tight game with little chances for goals. Head to Head stats shows less than 2.5 goals scored in 6 out of the last 7 meetings. 

Angers are heading down to the lower division by the looks of it but Strasbourg have a lifeline to leap out of the relegation zone if they can win here. I fancy Strasbourg to go all out for the win here but their low fire power upfront might pose a great challenge.
