Fleury 91 W vs PSG W Prediction & Betting Tips (2 February)

Despite the arrival of a new owner during the last off-season and rather ambitious recruitment, Strasbourg does not really manage to join the race for European places this year. The RCSA has in fact had a rather average start to the year and the points lost during the first months of competition mean it lacks any hope of playing anything during the spring. However, things are better now for Patrick Vieira's men who have not experienced defeat for a while. Undefeated for more than 2 months now, they shared points with Marseille 1-1 and Clermont 1-1 in their last two championship matches. In the meantime, they have also validated their ticket for the 1/8 finals of the Coupe de France after their 1-3 victory in Clermont 15 days ago.

Opposite, PSG is still going it alone in this championship. Without any real competition in the title race, the title holder should be able to keep his crown since he still has a 6-point lead over his first pursuer after 19 days. Beaten only once this season in Ligue 1, Luis Enrique's men had sought a very good success at Lens 0-2 before being joined in the score at the end of the match by a valiant Brest team, last week, while They led by 2 goals 2-2. The Ile-de-France residents are also playing on several tables since they validated their place in the 1/8th finals of the Coupe de France against Orléans 0-4 and they will face, in 10 days, Real Sociedad in the 1/8th finals first leg of the Champions League.

Defensive summer recruit Sow is still playing in the CAN during this winter period. To this we add that the long-term injured full-back Fila, the South African striker Mothiba (3 goals) and the young author of the equalizer against OM, Jonathan Sebas, are also on the floor. More annoying, experienced striker Gameiro and young defender Doukouré are also out at the moment. Patrick Vieira can still count on Dutch recruit Emegha who is the top scorer of this team with 4 goals. In Clermont, it was the former Annecian Sahi-Dion who was able to find the fault for the Alsatians. During the winter transfer window, the club set its sights on young Serbian striker Lukovic but he will not arrive at the club until next summer. Almost never used, defender Sobol was loaned to Genk in recent days while defender Nyamsi moved to Lokomotiv Moscow. Finally, the starting goalkeeper Sels will join Nottingham Forest and it could therefore be up to the young Bellaarouch to be established. Opposite, Luis Enrique still has to deal with several defections.

The replacement goalkeepers Letellier and Rico (recovering from his serious accident), the long-term absentee Nuno Mendes, the senior defenders Kimpembe and Skriniar, the promising Ndour and the undesirable Kurzawa are in fact on the floor. In addition, midfielder Lee, who is playing in the Asian Cup with his team, will still not be back while the young and promising Barcola will be suspended after being sent off against Brest. Eliminated from the CAN with Morocco this week, the full-back Hakimi is not guaranteed to be present either. Ousmane Dembélé is also added to this long list of absentees, injured in a thigh. Mute against Brest on Sunday, Mbappé nonetheless remains the top scorer in Ligue 1 with 19 goals. He is followed, quite far, by Vitinha and Kolo-Muani who have 5 goals each. Rookie Beraldo could be in the group again unlike his compatriot, midfielder Gabriel Moscardo, who will finish the season with SC Corinthians. Not in Luis Enrique's plans, young midfielder Ndour was loaned to Braga for the end of the season while Hugo Ekitike, unwanted, seems to be taking charge of Eintracht Frankfurt.
