Strasbourg-Troyes is a Ligue 1 Week 17 match and is played on Monday at 15:00: statistics, likely formations, predictions.
There is little doubt that for hosts Strasbourg this is a match that could be decisive for the future of their season. Penultimate in the table at the moment but only two points away from what could be the playout to remain in the French top flight.
It is an important clash against Troyes, who have 15 points in the standings and are hoping to emerge unscathed from this challenge in order to keep those behind not at a safe distance, but certainly away from what could be sudden shocks. In short, a first commitment of 2023 is definitely important for both teams, which arrive at this challenge in different ways.
Indeed, Strasbourg lost in the last match of 2022. Yes, the defeat came against Psg, away, 2-1. And that can absolutely be expected. While the guests drew at home against Nantes, shooting only twice in the goal mirror and generally showing little offensive brilliance.
The Prediction
A match in which Strasbourg are favourites. Yes, the hosts have an important chance to reduce the gap in the standings against Troyes and try to stay in the race for salvation. A difficult salvation, no doubt about it, but not impossible at this point of the season. Obviously everything depends on this afternoon’s challenge against a Troyes that, as said, did not show brilliance in the last commitment of 2022 and that could pay dearly for this. A challenge that in any case should give less than four goals in total.
