Strasbourg vs Lyon Predictions

• Both teams have scored in eight of Strasbourg’s 12 home league fixtures
• Lyon’s league fixtures have averaged 3.19 goals per game this season
• Strasbourg are unbeaten in their last six contests

Strasbourg continue to impress in Ligue 1

Separated by just two points, Strasbourg and Lyon are both vying for the European places in Ligue 1 and they could put on a show when they meet at the Stade de la Meinau on Friday.

Strasbourg should be high in confidence going into this game, having reeled off three straight wins as part of a six-game unbeaten sequence.

But Lyon have also been going well, winning each of their last five games in all competitions, and this is a tough one to call.

Expect goals at Stade de la Meinau

Goals could therefore be the way to go and both teams to score and over 2.5 goals looks overpriced.

Lyon have been rattling in the goals of late, scoring 13 times in their last four assignments as the likes of Rayan Cherki, Ernest Nuamah, Thiago Almada and Georges Mikautadze continue to impress.

Alexandre Lacazette, meanwhile, has ten goals to his name in Ligue 1, while young Strasbourg striker Emanuel Emegha has netted 11 times in the top flight.

Both teams have scored in five of Lyon’s last seven assignments, while eight of their last nine games have produced over 2.5 goals.

That high-scoring streak could continue in this game and 2-2 looks the wise correct score selection given how close these sides are in the standings.
