Strasbourg vs Paris Saint Germain Prediction: PSG will comeback strong from last week’s disappointment

Paris Saint Germain still maintain the luxury of maintaining a 6-point lead from 2nd place OGC Nice on the table, but if they must keep their place at the top, they would need to avoid dropping points like they did in the last round against Stade Brest at home. And Strasbourg have proven to be a decent team in recent weeks, they are not excellent, but maintaining a 6-match unbeaten run is fair enough for a team of their quality. Strasbourg can look back at the last few weeks and come into this game against PSG looking for a positive result. Although at the moment, PSG are the superior team based on form and head-to-head battle.

Strasbourg have not been beaten in their last 6 league games and they won 3 of those 6 games and drew the other 3. They played a draw for the second time in a row when they faced Clermont Foot 63 away from home last weekend. Dion Moses Sahi put Strasbourg in the lead in the 34th minute, before Shamar Nicholson equalized in the 52nd minute. Dilane Bakwa was a standout player for Strasbourg in the game. The right footed forward completed 5 dribbles successfully. He won 11 of 16 ground duels and 2 aerial duels.

By current standings, Strasbourg are ranked 10th on the league table, with 25 points from 19 matches. They have 7 wins, 6 draws and 7 defeats and their goal difference is -4.

Paris Saint Germain were left red-faced after dropping points against Stade Brest at the Parc de Princes last weekend. PSG were in the lead through Marco Asension and Randal Kolo Muani in the 38th and 45th minute. But in the 55th minute Mahdi Camara pulled one goal back for Stade Brest and in the 80th minute Mathias Pereira Lage drew the game level. PSG struggled to get back in the game and eventually lost Bradley Barcola in the 94th minute as he picked up a red card for a foul. Despite seeing red, Bradley Barcola put in a gallant performance in the game. The 21 year old has scored just 2 goals in 18 matches. He registered an assist in the game against Stade Brest, while also completing 7 successful dribbles from 10. He also created 2 big chances and had 27/38 accurate passes.

In 20 matches played against Paris Saint Germain and Strasbourg, PSG won 13 matches, while Strasbourg won 2 matches and 5 matches ended in a draw.

If there’s one thing that is clear in the heart of the PSG players in this game, it is to comeback from the disappointment of the previous game. They are capable of taking on any opponent and Strasbourg are in for some tough tasks when PSG comes to visit. At the moment, there’s every indication that PSG are going to take all 3 points from this game.

According to the statistics from their head-to-head, 6 of their last 7 meetings ended with more than 2.5 goals and both teams scored in 5 of their last 6 meetings. PSG also opened scoring in 9 of the last 10 matches against Strasbourg and they won the first half in 5 of their last 7 meetings.

Also, 7 of their last 8 meetings ended with less than 10.5 corners.
