Nantes vs. Strasbourg: Match Prediction
Strasbourg's recent results indicate the team's good form and their intention to qualify for European competitions. The club has not lost in 9 of their last 10 Ligue 1 matches (7 wins, 2 draws). Their away results are also promising – the team has not lost in 5 of their last 6 away league matches (4 wins, 1 draw).
In contrast, Nantes rarely delights their home fans – the club has not won at home in 17 of their last 20 Ligue 1 matches (4 draws, 13 losses).
Strasbourg's advantage is also highlighted by the head-to-head statistics. In league encounters at Nantes, the club has not lost in the last 5 meetings, winning 4 and drawing 1.
I believe that Liam Rosenior's side will not lose this time either. My prediction: Strasbourg win or draw
