Two sides sitting in the top half of the Ligue 1 standings will collide in France this week, as Strasbourg bid to continue their excellent recent run of form by landing a third straight win. However, Lille will be narrowly favoured after going five without defeat.
It has been an excellent few weeks or so in Ligue 1 for both Strasbourg and Lille, as both sides have climbed the standings after excellent runs of form. Strasbourg will have the home field advantage in the competition this weekend. They will be looking to record a third straight victory after ending a run of three matches without a success by winning each of their last two.
That run of form has seen the hosts move up to ninth in the standings, and they could move to within five points of the top five if they are able to register a famous win over Lille in front of their home fans this week. Strasbourg were professional in their latest match in the competition, as they secured a 2-1 away win against Lorient. Kevin Gameiro netted the winning goal early in the second half.
Lille will also be looking to continue their fine run of form in France this week, as they have rose to fourth in the standings after going five without defeat. They closed the gap on the Champions League spots in the standings last weekend after playing out a deserved draw at home against PSG.
They could move into the top three positions this week if they are able to claim maximum points, but a defeat could see them go into the Christmas break in fifth. Lille have been strong defensively already this term, as they have allowed just 12 goals in their 16 matches, which is the second-best defensive record in the competition.
Lille has an encouraging record in this fixture against Strasbourg. They have won each of the last four clashes between the sides, and are unbeaten in eleven league clashes between the sides. They picked up a 3-0 win on their latest trip to Strasbourg in October 2022.
Lille’s record against their rivals in Ligue 1 this week could be the key trend to consider. Therefore, we will be taking the away side to claim maximum points to climb into the Champions League positions.
