The Alsatians won the last Ligue 1 match between the teams, securing a 2-1 victory in January. However, in the previous five games, the advantage was on the side of the guests. When making a prediction for Strasbourg vs Lyon, it should be noted that in the previous five games, Olympique had three victories, while the opponent responded with one victory, and another match ended in a draw.
Strasbourg
Strasbourg is close to securing their place in the French championship for the next season. Currently, the club is in 15th place and has a 10-point lead over three opponents at the bottom of the table. However, “Nantes” and “Brest” in 17th and 16th place, respectively, are only behind Frederic Antonetti’s team in additional parameters. In their recent matches, “Strasbourg” has won more often than they have lost. In five rounds, the team won three times and lost twice. This includes a 2-0 victory over “Reims” from the middle of the table. In attack, Antonetti’s team plays confidently and has one of the best goal-scoring records among clubs from the bottom half of the Ligue 1 table.

Lyon
Lyon is much higher in the French championship table than their opponent for this round. With 50 points, the team is in seventh place. The gap between the “Lions” and their opponents is three and six points respectively. Therefore, Laurent Blanc’s team still has a chance to fight for participation in European competitions. Recently, “Lyon” had a series of unbeaten games. Among other things, the club managed to beat the leader of Ligue 1, PSG, 1-0. But in the 32nd round, another team from the top of the table took points from Blanc’s team – 1-2 against “Marseille”.

Prediction
Our expert pick:
We believe that the guests will succeed in this game. "Lyon" is much higher in the table and even claims to participate in European competitions. Whereas "Strasbourg" has not yet guaranteed its place in Ligue 1 for the next season - losing points in this round could lead the club to drop to the relegation zone. Therefore, the levels of the opponents are completely different, and it is unlikely that the home team will even be able to score a single point. Our bet is on "Lyon" to win with odds of 2.46 from the bookmaker 1xBet. However, we will also take into account the form of "Strasbourg". Yes, the club is low in the table. But the home team has been winning more often than losing recently. Therefore, it won't be easy for "Lyon" here. Most likely, the "Lions" will not be able to win with a clean sheet. In four of their last five head-to-head matches, both teams scored. We also place a bet that both teams will score, with odds of 1.79 from the bookmaker. Place a bet with
