Lorient - Strasbourg: betting tip (cf 2.20) and bets on the French Championship match

Current form

At the end of the season, Lorient is not claiming anything serious and is in the middle of the Ligue 1 standings. Taking ninth place, the dark orange are two points behind Strasbourg and have a chance to compete for eighth place, and today's match could be a key one. Catching up with Paris is also not asleep, but so far there is a three-point difference between them. With four rounds to go, a lot can change, and the coaching staff still has a lot of work to do.

The Merluzovs are largely considered the home team and beat Marseille on their own field in the last round. Lorient looked no weaker than his opponent and was able to realize his scoring chances. In the 28th minute of the match, the home team took the lead, and in the second half, the team's top scorer Dieng (nine goals scored) put an end to the match. Olivier Pantaloni's men won 2-0 and extended their unbeaten streak in their home League 1 championships to a damn dozen. The last defeat in Lorient was in August last year against Lille (1-7) and it remains the only one since the start of the championship at the Stade du Mustoire.

Disqualifications and injuries

The injured Bamba, Le Brice, Talbi and Toure will not help the team.

Interesting betting trends

• Lorient has not lost in his native penates since August last year.
• The number 2 on the scoreboard was found in three of the last five games.

Approximate line–up: Mvogo – Miete, Ajay, Fae – Koussi, Awom, Kadyu, Katseris - Pages, Makengo – Dieng.

Current form

Last week, Strasbourg fought to reach the French Cup final and denied itself the opportunity to qualify for a place in the Europa League. It was not possible to beat Nice (0:2). Two goals were conceded in the second half, and a penalty in the 82nd minute played a key role in the final score. There is no need to despair, and there will still be time to get to the trophy of honor.

In the French championship, Gary O'Neill's team does not qualify for a place in the top 6 and has no tournament motivation other than to fight for eighth place. In the last round of Ligue 1, the blue and white suffered a crushing defeat on their own field from Rennes. The team allowed the guests to score 26 shots on their own goal, conceded three goals and lost (0-3). Thus, the club completed a seven-match unbeaten streak in the French Championship.

In the Conference League, Strasbourg has reached the semifinals and will compete for the right to play in the final with the Spanish Rayo Vallecano. In the quarterfinals, the team played Mainz in Germany and was able not only to bounce back after a 0-2 defeat in Germany, but also staged a fabulous comeback for its fans. In their native penates, the Alsatians crushed the Germans, scored four unanswered goals and won (4-0).

Disqualifications and injuries

The injured Anselmino and Panechelli will not be on the field, and Barco's participation is also questionable.

Interesting betting trends

• The blue-whites failed to score in the last two games.
• Strasbourg has not conceded fewer than two goals in the last four out of six games.

Approximate composition: Penders – Hegsberg, Doukure, Omobamidele, Chilwell – El-Murabet, Ouattara–Yassin, Nanasi, Godot– Emega.
