Nice vs Strasbourg prediction, odds and how to watch

Strasbourg beat Lens 2-1 at home thanks to a brace from Gessime Yassine, with the winner arriving in the 85th minute to cap a match that had everything. Lens had their chances but lacked the basics when it mattered most.

Paris FC put Nice to the sword at home, winning 3-0 with a penalty from Lassine Sinayoko, a second-half strike from Samir Chergui, and a late goal from substitute Vincent Marchetti to seal a convincing three points.

Strasbourg put five past Troyes at home in a ruthless Ligue 1 performance, with goals in each half exposing a Troyes side that simply refused to compete when it mattered most.

Nice dropped more points at home, drawing 1-1 with Le Mans in Ligue 1 after Elye Wahi cancelled out Adil Ali Mohamed Bourabaa's opener. It is becoming a habit, and habits like this get managers sacked.

Nice have not won a single Ligue 1 match in their last ten, and Strasbourg arrive on the Côte d'Azur having won four of their last five. This is not a preview. This is a reckoning.

Paris FC welcome a Strasbourg side that carries goals at both ends but conceded four in their opening fixture, setting up a home game that could tell us a great deal about where both clubs are heading this season.

Nice have not won at home in their last six attempts, while Lille arrive at the Alpes-Maritimes having won six consecutive away fixtures. The structure of this match is already telling a story before a ball is kicked.

Auxerre have made their home ground a difficult place to visit this season, but Nice arrive in Burgundy searching for a first win and carrying questions about their own attacking output that have no easy answers.
