The penultimate match in Ligue 1 this weekend is between OGC Nice and RC Strasbourg at the Allianz Riviera.
This is the second fixture of the season for both teams and the hosts begin the weekend with 1 point to their name while RC Strasbourg are yet to get off the mark this campaign.
OGC Nice come into the match on the back of a 1-1 draw at Toulouse last weekend. Having fallen a goal behind in the 20th minute, OGN Nice scored the equalising goal with 12 minutes of the match remaining through new signing, Aaron Ramsey.
That result means OGC Nice are undefeated in their last 3 games, two of which were preseason friendlies against Roma and Torino.
The draw at Toulouse last week means OGC Nice are undefeated in 5 of their 6 most recent Ligue 1 games. There have been home wins over Troyes and Saint-Etienne plus away victories at Bordeaux and Reims.
Home form in Ligue 1 shows OGC Nice have lost only 2 of their last 10 fixtures. There have been wins over Lens, Nantes, Angers, PSG, and Lorient, in addition to the two wins highlighted above.
When playing at home, OGC Nice have seen both teams score in 4 of their last 5 Ligue 1 matches. Over 2.5 goals have been scored in 3 of their last 4 league games on home soil.
RC Strasbourg travel to the Allianz Riviera having lost their opening fixture of the new season to Monaco at home. RC Strasbourg fell 2 goals behind in the space of 10 minutes either side of half time. They managed to get a goal back in the 65th minute but could not force the equaliser.
That result means RC Strasbourg have won 1 of their last 4 games, including games in preseason. The victory came over Liverpool in a friendly match but the hosts put out a mostly reserve team for the game.
Including matches from last season, form in Ligue 1 shows Strasbourg have recorded only 3 wins from their last 9 fixtures. Away form shows only 1 win from their last 7 matches on the road and there have been 2 defeats in their last 3 away trips in the league. Trends show there have been under 2.5 goals scored in 5 of their last 6 away Ligue 1 games.
Team news and OGC Nice have no injury or suspension concerns. Aaron Ramsey could make his first start having scored off the bench last week. Mario Lemina and Rare Ilie are also pushing for a place in the team.
RC Strasbourg have three players on the treatment table, with Nordine Kandil, Eiji Kawashima, and Lebo Mothiba unavailable due to injury.
OGC Nice should build on their away point last weekend with a victory in this game. However, RC Strasbourg know how to keep things tight when playing away in Ligue 1 and this match could end with just a single goal in favour of the hosts.
