Season ticket holders at Stade de la Meinau haven’t seen too many victories this season, with Strasbourg languishing in the 16th position so far. The guesting Montpellier will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.

We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!

Strasbourg are fighting like crazy to avoid relegation and desperately need points in this fixture. Montpellier are still fighting for top positions and their benefits.

Strasbourg form and stats

Strasbourg's struggle is real here at Stade de la Meinau with only 16 points collected from 17 Ligue 1 games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 4-4-9. With Strasbourg having lost three times in a row here, the pressure is increasing on the manager T. Laurey.

The home team returns to Stade de la Meinau after being equal after 90 minutes with Olympique Marseille (placed 6th) on their last time out; the Ligue 1 game ended 1-1. Preceding that match was a defeat to Nantes (1-2).

The hosts are favourites to win this game, with an estimated chance of about 55-60% of that outcome. Earlier Strasbourg matches with similar probabilities have ended with three wins, two draws and zero defeats (from five games).

The Strasbourg fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 18 in 17 matches. On the other hand, Strasbourg have conceded 25 goals.

Montpellier form and stats

5-8-4 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Montpellier in their Ligue 1 matches away.

Preceding that game, the 1-3 loss visiting Nice's place.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Montpellier playing away, we found three games. Results were one away win, one draw and one home win.

A new game in only three days for Montpellier, the Coupe de France home match versus Paris Saint Germain. Busy days.

Montpellier find the net regularly in their away games. 21 goals from 17 away fixtures in the league. Montpellier have conceded 24 goals in these away matches.
