Command Analysis

Strasbourg

Current form
Strasbourg barely made it to the 1/8 finals of the French Cup. In the last round, Liam Rosenor's team defeated Tan, but it happened only in a penalty shootout, and the main time ended with a score of 2:2.
In their last match, the hosts of the upcoming match were defeated by Rennes (0:1), thus ending a winless streak of eight matches in a row. We've already had to play with the upcoming opponent this season. It was in the middle of September last year, and then the match ended in a draw (1-1). It will be interesting to see if we can manage the meeting more confidently this time.

Angers

Current form
In 2025, Angers got its second wind. Since the beginning of January, the team has played six matches, in which they won four meetings and drew once and lost once. At the moment, the "black and white" occupy a position closer to the middle of the Ligue 1 standings, having scored a total of 23 points, and are eight points ahead of the relegation zone. The team is not in the best mood right now, because in the penultimate game there was a defeat against Lens (0:1), and in the last game there was a draw with Le Havre (1:1).
Disqualification and injury
There are no injured players in the team.
Interesting betting trends

1.67Tip and bets
In this confrontation, it is unlikely that the teams will be able to show effective football. Most likely, the game will be concentrated in its own half of the field, and, as in seven of the last nine face-to-face matches, we will not see a lot of goal-taking. The schedule is very busy. There were games in Ligue 1 a few days ago, and in a couple of days we'll have to play in the national championship again, so no one will play to the limit of their abilities.
Our forecast is a total of less than 2.5 goals with a coefficient of 1.86
Betting on the outcome
We do not agree that Strasbourg is the clear favorite of the match. In 2025, Angers is demonstrating a high-quality game, and one defeat in six matches is excellent evidence of this. Moreover, in the first round of Ligue 1, the guests had already taken points from the opponent, and now they are no less motivated to play well than they were in the national championship.
Our forecast is that Angers will not lose with a coefficient of 1.96
Betting on corners
Based on all of the above, it is clear that the match is unlikely to be productive, because reaching the quarterfinals of the tournament is at stake. Most likely, you won't be lucky enough to see many pitches from the corner flag.
Our forecast is a total of less than 8.5 corners with a coefficient of 1.72
