Troyes vs Strasbourg prediction, preview, team news and more | Ligue 1 2021-22
Strasbourg will continue to push for a historic Champions League qualification spot as they take on Troyes this weekend in Ligue 1 action.

Their rivals will be hoping for anything but a defeat to maintain the gap between the relegation-threatened outfits of the division.
