Strasbourg’s Ligue 1 campaign has been marked by a series of inconsistent results, and they will be looking for some stability as they visit Saint-Etienne on Match Day 10. Here’s our preview and prediction for this Saturday’s matchup.
Saint-Etienne has struggled to build on their recent victories against Lille and Auxerre, suffering several heavy defeats. Their latest setback came in a 4-2 loss to fellow promoted side Angers, where they showed resilience by equalizing twice before ultimately succumbing to the pressure. However, both of their wins this season have come at home, which may provide them with a glimmer of hope.
On the other hand, Strasbourg will enter this match with a clear objective: to capitalize on Saint-Etienne’s struggles. They are coming off a solid 3-1 victory against Nantes, where they demonstrated improved composure, successfully maintaining their lead until a late concession. This win marked their first in three matches and should serve as a confidence boost as they prepare for this encounter.
Strasbourg’s attacking form has been encouraging, with 11 goals scored in their last five matches, losing only to PSG during that stretch. Their ability to find the net consistently will be crucial as they aim to inflict further misery on Saint-Etienne.
With both teams eager to secure points, this match promises to be an engaging contest, with Strasbourg looking to build on their recent success while Saint-Etienne seeks to regain their footing.
