Match Preview

Caen entertain Strasbourg in this Ligue 1 (L1) clash seeking to end a six-game winless league run (D1, L5). The home team come into this encounter after a 1-0 home loss to Nantes in midweek, which marked their fifth straight loss in the top flight.
Furthermore, ‘Les Malherbistes’ have won just one of their last 16 league fixtures (W1, D5, L10), but they have H2H history on their side to an extent, having never lost a L1 match against Strasbourg at the Stade Michel d’Ornano (W6, D2). Within those matches, they have scored five times as many goals as they have conceded (GF 20, GA 4)!
But records are there to be broken, and Strasbourg will be looking to bounce back after two straight losses in the league. They travel to Normandy after claiming only four wins in their last 22 away fixtures in L1 (W4, D6, L12), and remain stuck on just two L1 clean sheets on the road this season.
Despite this, Strasbourg have lost only two of their last eight away fixtures in the league (W3, D3, L2), scoring at least two goals in half (four) of them. Regardless, Strasbourg stand as L1’s second-best scorers on the road, averaging 1.75 goals per away game to date.
Players to watch: Enzo Crivelli is Caen’s top scorer with four L1 goals, though just one has been scored on home soil. Meanwhile, Strasbourg midfielder Adrien Thomasson is doing well this season, with five goals and five assists.
Stat attack: At home, no L1 side has conceded more goals than Caen between the 46th-60th minute (four).
Both teams have scored in a league-high 70.83% of Strasbourg’s L1 games this season.
The visitors have failed to score in each of their last five L1 trips to Caen (D1, L4).
