Strasbourg will entertain Nice at the Stade de la Meinau in Ligue 1 action on Saturday.
The hosts returned to winning ways last week as goals from Habib Diallo and Habib Diarra helped them to a 2-0 away win over Nantes. They have three wins from their last four league games. They are in 14th place in the league table with 35 points to their name.
The visitors recorded their second win in a row last week as second-half goals from Gaëtan Laborde and Terem Moffi helped them defeat Rennes 2-1 at home.
After failing to record a win in seven games in all competitions between March and April, they have recorded two wins in a row, which bodes well for them.

Strasbourg vs Nice Prediction
Le Racing have recorded wins in three of their last four league games and look to be in good touch currently. They have kept clean sheets in three of their last four meetings against the visitors. Nice have failed to score in three of their last four away games against the hosts as well.
Les Aiglons have bounced back to winning ways after a winless run between March and April and will be looking to make it three wins in a row. Nonetheless, they have just one in their last five meetings against the hosts, which is a cause for concern.
Considering the recent history between the two teams and their current form, a low-scoring draw might ensue.
