Strasbourg vs Lille Prediction

Liam Rosenior’s Strasbourg have had 61 goals come in their 18 Ligue 1 matches as the Alsace-based side play an open and entertaining style of football. They shared a 1-1 draw with Olympique de Marseille at Stade Velodrome last weekend to mean they are now unbeaten in their last seven matches across all competitions. They now face a Lille side that also play a possession-based and generally attacking style of football under the management of Bruno Genesio. They were beaten 2-1 by UEFA Champions League league phase leaders Liverpool in midweek but remain a difficult side to play against and get the better of with both teams scoring seeming a good bet for this one.

Strasbourg vs Lille Tip: Both teams to score
