Paris FC vs Strasbourg prediction: FRANCE: Ligue 1 betting tips on match 2025-09-20 13:00.
[p]Both Paris FC and Strasbourg can be pleased with their respective starts to the season, and they will each look to notch up another victory in this clash at Stade Jean-Bouin.[/p]
[p]Match News and Current Form[/p]
[p]Paris FC have acclimatised quickly to life in the top-flight, winning both of their last two matches to sit comfortably in mid-table after four rounds. A 2-1 away win at Brest last weekend highlighted their strong credentials in Ligue 1, but there are still improvements to be made defensively as only two sides have conceded more goals heading into the weekend than Paris’ nine. StĂ©phane Gilli’s men will back their attack to get the job done in any case here as they’ve won each of their last ten home league games, while they’ve failed to score in just one of their last 23 games on their own turf.[/p]
[p]Strasbourg made it three league wins out of four (L1) by beating Le Havre 1-0 last weekend to stay in touch with the early pacesetters in Ligue 1. The nine points accumulated so far is the club’s best at this stage since promotion to the top-flight in 2017 and sets them up nicely ahead of their European campaign starting in early October. Competing on multiple fronts will be a new challenge for boss Liam Rosenior, who has seen his side lose just three of their last 20 matches across all competitions (W13, D4). [/p]
[p]Head-to-Head History[/p]
[p]It has been over ten years since these two teams last met, with Paris FC losing just one of the six H2Hs this century (W2, D3). [/p]
