Strasbourg form and stats

Strasbourg's struggle is real here at Stade de la Meinau with only 12 points collected from 12 Ligue 1 games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 3-3-6.

A good away victory last time out for Strasbourg, who won 2-1 against Metz (placed 7th). Ahead of that match, Strasbourg lost 0-2 at home to Montpellier.

Angers SCO form and stats

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Angers playing away and similar expectations, we found 13 relevant matches. Results were three Angers SCO wins, six draws and four defeats.
