Strasbourg: Form and Statistics

Form: LWLDW

Strasbourg are in high spirits after a calm night on BK Hacken soil in the third round of the UEFA Europa Conference League (league phase). The Alsace outfit managed to secure a 2-1 victory with Julio Enciso and Martial Godo finding the net. Thanks to that result, they have maintained a three-match unbeaten run in the competition.

A return to their domestic duties sees Liam Rosenior’s side aiming to get back to winning ways in Ligue 1. Their last match was a 4-1 away thrashing at the hands of Rennes. This marked their second league defeat in three outings.

Le Racing are at home this time around. The Stade de la Meinau has been their stronghold with 12 points accumulated from a possible 15. Heading into this clash, they are unbeaten in their last three matches across all competitions.

Strasbourg: Team News

Head coach Liam Rosenior will be without the services of Ismael Doukoure, who was suspended in his last match against Lyon on October 26th.

In the injury room, Abakar Sylla, Andrew Omobamidele, Karl-Johan Johnsson, Maximillian Oyedele, and Saidou Sow are set to miss out this Sunday. Another name that won't take part is Mamadou Sarr. The defender is recovering from an illness

Joaquin Panichelli has been a breath of fresh air for Strasbourg in the past weeks. Besides scoring in four of his last five games, the 23-year-old has six goals to his name during this period. Special attention needs to be given to Sebastian Nanasi, who has been directly involved in three goal involvements in the last two league games.

🔖 Probable Starting XI (3-4-2-1): Penders; Doue, Hogsberg, Chilwell; Ouattara, El Mourabet, Barco, Moreira; Amo Ameyaw, Nanasi; Panichelli.

Lille: Form and Statistics

Form: WLWWD

Lille, on the other hand, ran into trouble on their trip to Crvena Zvezda in the UEFA Europa Conference League (league phase). Despite controlling 60% of ball possession, it wasn't enough to see them evade a 1-0 defeat. This result made it back-to-back losses in the competition.

Les Dogues will be out to restore their confidence with a convincing league win. Their recent match was a 1-0 home victory against Angers, with Felix Correia scoring the only goal in first-half stoppage time. Notably, this marked their third league win in four games.

In unfamiliar territory, their performance has failed to impress with two losses in their last three outings. The situation worsens further upon realizing that they have lost their previous two away matches against Strasbourg. Head coach Bruno Génésio will hope that this poor run doesn't come to haunt them as they aim to cement their position in the European spots.

Lille: Team News

Lille has five players in the injury room, including Alexsandro, Ethan Mbappe, Marc-Aurele Caillard, Nathan Ngoy, and Ousmane Toure.

Head coach Bruno Génésio is likely to make some changes to the starting lineup that lost away to Crvena Zvezda in Thursday's UEFA Europa League (league phase) clash.

Hakon Arnar Haraldsson and Mathias will take up the central midfield position, and Fernandez-Pardo replaces Marius Broholm in the right midfield position. Further down the pitch, Benjamin Andre is expected to operate from a deeper midfield role, replacing Nabil Bentaleb.

🔖 Probable Starting XI (4-2-3-1): Ozer; Verdonk, Mandi, Mbemba, Meunier; Andre, Bouaddi; Correia, Heraldsson, Fernandez-Pardo; Igamane.

⛔️ Out: Alexsandro (thigh injury), Ethan Mbappe (knock), Marc-Aurele Caillard (elbow injury), Nathan Ngoy (knock), Ousmane Toure (knee injury).

👤 Head coach: Bruno Génésio.

It is an undeniable fact that Lille holds an upper hand in this fixture, but Strasbourg are the ones who, in my opinion, stand a chance of walking away with three points in this one. Put aside their recent struggles in the league, and you have a side that has won two consecutive home league games by a 2-1 scoreline against Lille.

Despite Lille being expected to concede ground here, they should not be written off from finding the net. The visitors have scored in each of their last 13 matches against Strasbourg. Seven of those outings produced over 2.5 goals, and we just might be treated to a high-scoring affair.
