Command Analysis

Paris Saint-Germain

Current form
It is unusual to see PSG in second place in the league table. Luis Enrique charges are currently three points behind Monaco. It is not worth thinking that the capital club has any problems in terms of play. In the last round, they simply underestimated Nice, with whom they drew (1:1). Moreover, last season, together with Kylian Mbappe, PSG scored five points less in seven rounds than in the current competition. PSG has played more than 20 matches against its upcoming opponent on its home field and has not lost a single match. Such statistics, of course, give additional confidence.
Disqualifications and injuries
Hernandez, Kimpembe and Ramos will not take part in the match due to injuries.
Interesting trends for betting
PSG have won their last four home games
The hosts have conceded goals in four matches in a row
Probable line-up: Donnarumma - Hakimi, Skriniar, Beraldo, Nuno Mendes - Neves, Vitinha, Ruiz - Dembele, Asensio, Barcola.

Strasbourg

Current form
Deja vu - this is how you can call the start of the season for Strasbourg. After seven rounds played, the team has scored ten points. The club had exactly the same result last year. At the moment, the team is in seventh place in the standings, and this can be called a success, because in Ligue 1 there have already been matches with such giants as Lens, Marseille, Lille and Rennes. In each of these matches, Liam Rosenior charges demonstrated a high level of football.
Disqualifications and injuries
Delane, Wiley, Bellaaruch, Sahi and Lukovic are injured. Douai and Doucouré are suspended.

1.75Tip and bets
PSG has a huge advantage in head-to-head encounters. Strasbourg has not been able to beat the Parisians for 14 matches in a row. On their home field, the French champion plays open football and scored at least three times in the last five victorious matches. It is quite possible that they will be able to do this in the upcoming match, thus confidently beating their counterpart.
Our prediction is Asian handicap (-1.5) on PSG with odds of 1.74
Bet on total
Strasbourg have scored in all of their last seven rounds. The record is simply excellent. This cannot continue forever, because the Greens are not as cool as PSG, who have also scored in all of their Ligue 1 matches this season. We believe that the visitors' scoring record will end in the upcoming match.
Our prediction is that at least one will not score with odds of 2.15
Bet on corners
The game should not be a closed one. This means that there is a high probability that there will be a lot of corners in the upcoming match.
Our prediction is total over 8.5 corners with odds of 1.65
