An important duel in the bottom section of the Ligue 1, with both Strasbourg and Nantes experiencing more worry than joy. This match is a classic "six-pointer" with the home team placed 14th and the visitors in 19th place.

Insights:
  • Nantes have the fewest clean sheets (3) in Ligue 1

Strasbourg and Nantes should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.

Nantes have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 800 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

Strasbourg are fighting like crazy to avoid relegation and desperately need points in this fixture.

Strasbourg form and stats

With {4 Ligue 1 wins}, 4 draws and 8 defeats from their home games, Strasbourg are certainly not brimming with confidence. Strasbourg are very eager to stop a potential losing streak at Stade de la Meinau, having lost their two previous games here.

Strasbourg shared the glory with Nîmes in their last match, an away game that ended all square 1-1. Preceding that match was a defeat to Paris Saint Germain (1-4).

A painful moment in the game against Nîmes was the missed penalty kick from Dimitri Liénard in the 82nd minute. A goal there would obviously have changed the match and probably the outcome.
