Ol. Strasbourg vs St Etienne Prediction & Betting tips
In the 1 / 32th-finals of the Coupe de France, AS Saint-Étienne takes on Olympique Strasbourg. In the Ligue 1, AS Saint-Étienne won four points this season in two matches against RC Strasbourg, Olympique Strasbourg’s big brother, but will the Jean-Louis Gasset team also win the little brother on Sunday-afternoon?
Olympique Strasbourg:
Olympique Strasbourg, an amateur club from Strasbourg, is often considered the little brother of RC Strasbourg. Where RC Strasbourg in history only appeared in the Ligue 1, Ligue 2 and the Championnat National, that can not be said of Olympique Strasbourg that has not achieved any significant performance in French football. Nevertheless, the team managed to qualify for the 1 / 32th-finals of the Coupe de France, where AS Saint-Étienne has a heavy opponent on paper.
AS Saint-Étienne:
After the first half of the season, AS Saint-Étienne is in a neatly tied fourth place in the Ligue 1 with thirty points and a goal difference of +6 (28-22), but the team is nevertheless in great shape. The team that finished seventh in the Ligue 1 last season and missed out on goal-balance European football lost no less than three of the last six games, and this season already won 23 goals in nineteen official matches.
The big problem of Les Verts this season are away games. In the league, Gasset’s team won seven runs in nine away games, something that only Girondins de Bordeaux did worse in six points in seven away games in absolute terms. In the own Stade Geoffroy-Guichard, however, the team is perilous to witness the 23 points from nine home games.
