Strasbourg vs Nice Prediction and Betting Tips | April 28th 2024

Strasbourg welcome Nice to the Stade de la Meinau in a Ligue 1 match this Sunday.

Strasbourg currently sit in 13th place in the table and are all but safe from relegation at this stage, while Nice are in fifth and could still make the UEFA Champions League if the results go in the right way.

So who will come out on top this weekend?

Strasbourg vs Nice Head-to-Head and Key Numbers

Although Nice are far above Strasbourg in the table currently, recent results between these sides favor the home team. Strasbourg have won three of their last six meetings with Nice, although the last time they met, Nice won out 2-0.
Strasbourg's last game saw them fall 1-0 to another Champions League-chasing side in Lille. The defeat snapped a four-game unbeaten run for Strasbourg, and while it shouldn't be disastrous, they will now have to wait a little longer to confirm their safety.
After looking like a Champions League certainty earlier this season, Nice are now four points adrift of the final qualifying spot. Their last game saw them draw 2-2 with Marseille, meaning they have only won three of 13 matches since the turn of the year.
Despite their recent patchy form, Nice's defense remains the strongest in Ligue 1 this season. They have conceded just 24 goals, two fewer than champions-elect Paris St. Germain.
Bizarrely, despite eight league places separating these sides, both Strasbourg and Nice have scored the same amount of goals this season - 33.

Strasbourg vs Nice Prediction

Given that Strasbourg will basically be safe from relegation with a win here, the stakes are high for them, even if Nice are still chasing Champions League qualification.

Coupled with the fact that Nice only played Marseille in a tough game on Thursday, and the away side might be in danger of crashing here, running into an opponent with a lot of energy and motivation.

With that said, Nice's defense has still held up against most opposition this season, and there's no reason to believe that it won't here. Therefore, a draw is the prediction.

Prediction: Strasbourg 1-1 Nice
