Nantes Preview

The Canaries' recent away trip has been a rollercoaster ride. Their previous one was a 2-0 defeat to Olympique Marseille, a match in which they could not get their rhythm going, gaining only 25% possession and having eight shots on target. Discipline was also a problem as 15 fouls led to two yellow cards.

Nantes' upcoming game's expected goals (xG) is 1.17, which shows that they still are not doing well in the attacking third. Injuries have contributed to the suffering as well: Tino Kadewere and Nathan Zeze.

Their recent string shows inconsistency: WLLWL. Under coach Antoine Kambouaré, the team has failed to get into rhythm. Nevertheless, amidst inconsistency, Moses Simon has been a beacon of hope, scoring six goals and seven assists in 23 games. Nantes is placed at 14th in the table with 5 wins, 9 draws, and 10 losses in their record for a total of 24 points.

Strasbourg Preview

By contrast, Strasbourg has had a story of revival. Their latest 1-0 win over Auxerre was testimony to their solidity at the back, having 55% possession and restricting their visitors to scant opportunities.

The team's next match xG is a hopeful 1.54, promising a deadly attacking threat. Still, they have their injury woes: Thomas Delaine, Andrew Omobamidele, Habib Diarra, Moïse Sahi, Abakar Sylla (suspension).

Their present shape, LWWDW, is that of a rising team. Boss Liam Rosenior has instilled a sense of confidence and order in them, with goalkeeper Djordje Petrovic being the heart, earning eight clean sheets in 21 games. Strasbourg's impressive record of 10 victories, 7 draws, and 7 losses has seen them earn 37 points, 7th placed and just touching distance away from football in Europe.

Head to Head

The two teams' historical record is one of depth and richness. Out of their previous encounters, Nantes has emerged victorious 43 times, Strasbourg 27 times, and 19 times the game ended in a draw. Their last meeting on October 27, 2024, was a victory for Strasbourg by a 3-1 margin, a win that is still fresh in the minds of the Nantes supporters.
