Draw or Lorient to Win

Score During the Game 0-1
Lorient usually start their matches in an attacking fashion and have taken the lead in the majority of their game. In detail, Lorient scored first in eight of their 14 matches in the league while Strasbourg conceded first in nine.
Strasbourg
Third, from the bottom of the table, Strasbourg are having a disappointing season so far. With one win and seven draws from 14 matches, Les Bleus et Blancs have collected ten points which is their fewest in the last six seasons since their return to Ligue 1.
Coach Julien Stephan must find a solution for his defensive problems. Notably, Strasbourg’s back four conceded 25% more goals in the last eight rounds with an average of 2.25 goals per game than their season average of 1.79.
Lorient
Lorient experienced impeccable form during this campaign winning six consecutive games extending from round four to round nine. Les Merlus have dropped down to sixth with 27 points after going winless in their last four games.
And the stats don’t lie as their points won average per game decreased from 1.93 in the season to 1.75 in the previous eight rounds. Nonetheless, coach Regis Le Bris’s team is undefeated in their last four away games and scored in each of their previous seven trips.
Lorient are having their best season since 2010 and despite a drop in form in the previous four rounds, they are more likely avoid a defeat on Sunday. Les Merlus have not lost against the bottom ten clubs and we expect them to keep that record in this round.
Strasbourg conceded at least a goal in six of their seven home games. Lorient are averaging 1.86 goals per away game. With odds of 1.84 at 1XBet, we predict Lorient to score over one goal.
