Strasbourg preview: Can they stop losing?
While Strasbourg seemed to be cruising towards a mid-table finish at one point, their poor form and the fact that they've lost four in a row and didn't win in the last six rounds puts them in a dangerous spot, just three points ahead of the relegation zone.
Meanwhile, Moise Sahi, Lebo Mothiba, and Jeremy Sebas are on the team's injury list.
Predicted Lineup – Bellaarouch – Guilbert, Perrin, Sylla, Delaine – Mwanga, Sissoko, Diarra – Bakwa, Emegha, Gameiro
