Strasbourg form and stats
5-2-2 (win-draw-lost) are the Ligue 1 numbers at home for Strasbourg, who have the most scored goals (23) at home in Ligue 1, so far this season.
Happy days for Strasbourg in their previous game, a Ligue 1 match away at Nice (placed 4th) that ended with a 3-0 victory. The versatile forward Habib Diallo outdid all the other players in that fixture and got a match rating of 8.15 out of 10. Diallo scored one goal, served one assist, hit one key pass and dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times.
Ahead of that match, Strasbourg won a home game hosting Bordeaux (5-2).This is expected to be a close game, with Strasbourg perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Strasbourg as a small favourite), we find eight games. Strasbourg has won two of these, drawn two and lost four.
There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Strasbourg as they are travelling to their away game against Valenciennes in the Coupe de France. That match is four days after this one.
Strasbourg are an "over 2,5 goals" team alone here at Stade de la Meinau in their league games, having scored an impressive 23 goals in 9 matches. Strasbourg have conceded 10 in these home matches.
Olympique Marseille form and stats
The away team have been very comfortable on their travels so far, racking up 4 wins, 2 draws and only 1 loss in the Ligue 1. Olympique has recorded two wins in a row in their away matches and hold legitimate hopes of a third one.
Olympique are travelling after their nice 1-0 home win in the Europa League against Lokomotiv Moskva. Attacker Cengiz Ünder got a player rating of 7.92 in the game. "Man of the match" Ünder served one assist and hit five key passes.
Preceding that, the 1-2 home loss versus Brest.So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Olympique playing away and similar expectations, we found eight relevant matches. Results were three Olympique Marseille wins, four draws and one defeat.
Olympique find the net regularly in their away games. 8 goals from 7 away fixtures in the league. They concede less than a goal on average per away game (5 so far).
