After a promising draw against OM last week, Strasbourg won a precious victory in Nice (2-1) on Sunday afternoon, which allows Strasbourg to calmly approach the arrival of Saint-Etienne to the Meinau for the account of the 16th round of the League Cup. For their part, the St Etienne recorded Friday their first home defeat of the season against Montpellier. Are Oscar Garcia’s players bouncing back in Alsace on Wednesday?
Our Bet Explained
Strasbourg has not won at home since 2 months.
The Greens have won 1 game in their last 4 meetings.
Strasbourg and Saint-Etienne have not met since February 2008.
During the last 6 confrontations at the Meinau, Saint-Etienne imposed itself only once.
Our prediction RC Strasbourg Saint Etienne
The public of the stadium of Meinau, which is likely to fill up for the arrival of the Greens, will do everything to support its players for a possible qualification in the 8th finals of the CDL. But beware of Saint-Etienne who will not let it go and resist the assaults of their opponents. A draw between the two clubs (and therefore extra time and penalty shoot-out) is possible.
PREDICTION: DRAW @ 3.05
