Strasbourg were much closer to the relegation zone than anyone in the club expected last season. In the end, they finished with five points more than the relegation zone. Strasbourg hopes that they will have a much better 2023/24 season. They started solidly with six points in four league matches. In the previous game, they lost 2-0 on the road against Nice. The home side had 63%  ball possession and 12 more shots than Strasbourg, so it was no wonder Patrick Vieira's team lost that one. 

Montpellier would be satisfied if they repeat the previous season when they finished 12th on the table. Still, the start of the 2023/24 wasn't that good, as Montpellier collected only four points so far. Actually, they started the season with four points, but after that came two defeats in a row. In the previous match, Montpellier lost 1-0 on the road against Lille. Guests didn't play well in that one as they didn't create enough good opportunities to score. 

Strasbourg vs Montpellier pick: Both teams to score - yes

Strasbourg scored only four goals this season, but all four goals came in two matches at the home stadium. On the other hand, Montpellier scored seven goals in four league matches and we shouldn't worry too much about them scoring. Both teams to score - yes seems as the right bet for this tie.

Strasbourg team news

Strasbourg will be without injured Eduard Sobol and Maxime Bastian in the upcoming game against Montpellier. Strasbourg played without those two in the previous match, too.

We should expect Patrick Vieira to field the same lineup, as there are no new players who will miss the game.

The only possible change, in my opinion, could be including 18-year-old Brazilian Angelo instead of Jessy Deminguet.

Deminguet didn't play well, and although Angelo still didn't start, he showed a good level of football in every match he came as a substitute so far.

Montpellier team news

Theo Sainte-Luce is the only injured Montpellier player. Michel Der Zakarian's team had too many problems in the game against Lille, especially in the midfield and attack.

Two players who had disastrous games are Akor Adams and Wahbi Khazri.

We could expect Kelvin Yeboah and Arnaud Nordin to play instead of them in the upcoming tie.
