Paris Saint-Germain FC at RC Strasbourg Alsace 4/10/21 - Ligue 1 Picks & Predictions
PSG are coming off a massive win in the Champions League quarter-finals against Bayern Munich and are now back to Ligue 1 duties. They will be hosted by Strasbourg on Saturday, who are also coming off a nice win on the road.
Strasbourg (10-15-6) beat Bordeaux by 3-2 on the road last week, in a match where they took a three-goal lead and all 5 goals were scored in the first half. They have been in solid shape lately, losing just two of their last seven matches (3-2-2). Strasbourg are now sitting at the 13th spot of the Ligue 1 with 36 points, 7 points above the red line. They have not been very good at home so far (4-7-4), winning just 1 of their last 6 there (1-3-2).
PSG (20-8-3) suffered a tough 1-0 loss at home against Lille in the title derby last week, but bounced back with a 3-2 away win against Bayern Munich in the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals. As far as the Ligue 1 is concerned, PSG are now sitting at the 2nd spot with 63 points, three behind Lille, one ahead of Monaco and two ahead of Lyon. PSG have 10 wins, 3 losses and 2 draws on the road in league play this season, scoring 32 and conceding 11 goals.
PSG destroyed Strasbourg by a solid 4-0 at home in the reverse fixture and are now undefeated in their last 7 against them (5-0-2). Strasbourg have actually stood greatly against PSG in recent years (2-2-3), with both teams scoring in each of the last 6 here. With PSG playing against Bayern Munich again in a few days, I wouldn’t be surprised if we saw goals from both sides here.
