France’s Ligue 1 returns to action on Wednesday, with high-flying Paris Saint-Germain hosting relegation-threatened Strasbourg at the Parc des Princes.
Strasbourg find themselves second from bottom – two points from safety – having claimed a solitary victory this season.
At the opposite end of the table, PSG sit five points clear of second-place Lens after avoiding defeat in their opening 15 games.
The Parisians have picked up 13 wins and two draws this season, scoring a whopping 43 goals in the process (2.9 goals per game).
Kylian Mbappe (12 goals, 2 assists) is the league’s top goalscorer, with Neymar (11 goals, 9 assists) and Lionel Messi (7 goals, 10 assists) also dishing up goals and assists for fun.
PSG have won each of their last five Ligue 1 games. When you look at the bigger picture, they have won ten of the previous 11.
It is also worth noting that PSG have avoided defeat in each of their past 26 home games in the league, emphasizing their superiority at the Parc des Princes.
As for Strasbourg, they have only managed to win one of their 15 Ligue 1 outings this season – recording eight draws and six losses.
Strasbourg have lost more games than anyone else this term, while no team has registered more draws in 2022/23.
It is worth pointing out that Strasbourg head into Wednesday’s clash on a four-game winless run. They have also lost four of their previous league outings.
Worse still, only six sides have conceded more Ligue 1 goals than Strasbourg’s 26 – meaning they average 1.7 goals against per game this term.
Head-to-head: PSG are currently enjoying a ten-game unbeaten streak against Strasbourg. During that period, they scored over 2.5 goals on six occasions.
Across all competitions, Strasbourg have won just two of their previous 23 meetings with PSG – suffering 16 defeats along the way.
Team news: PSG look set to be without World Cup winner Messi on Wednesday, although Mbappe could feature. Nuno Mendes and Danilo Pereira are both injured.
Meanwhile, Strasbourg will be without the injured duo of Colin Dagba and Nordine Kandil for the trip to Paris.
The 30-point gulf between PSG and Strasbourg tells you everything you need to know about these two sides. Plus, Strasbourg’s record in this fixture is extremely poor.
With that in mind, Forebet predicts that PSG will score over 2.5 goals and keep a clean sheet on Wednesday – claiming all three points with ease.
