Strasbourg host Troyes at the Stade de la Meinau in Ligue 1 on Monday, looking to pick up their second win of the season.

With 11 points from 16 games, Julien Stéphan's side are second from bottom in the league table, having won just once in their campaign so far - a 3-2 win over Angers on matchday 10 in October.

More recently, though, Strasbourg were beaten 2-1 by PSG in their first match after the mid-season break, with Kylian Mbappe scoring a 96th-minute winning penalty for the champions.

Troyes, meanwhile, haven't covered themselves in glory either, winning just two more games and collecting four more points than Strasbourg.

Since beating Clermont Foot 3-1 in September, Patrick Kisnorbo's side are winless in their last eight games, drawing five times and losing thrice.
