Head-to-head statistics Strasbourg - Paris
Strasbourg Alsace Team Overview
🔵 Strasbourg have remained unbeaten across all competitions since mid-February. During this period, Gary O’Neil's side secured a spot in the French Cup semi-finals, claimed victory in the first leg of the Europa Conference League Round of 16 against Rijeka (2-1), and edged closer to the European qualification spots in Ligue 1. This marks a significant breakthrough for a team that was recently struggling and underwent a managerial change.
🔴 In their last four league fixtures, Strasbourg have recorded three draws and a win over Lyon (3-1). Gary O’Neil's men played their most recent match away against Auxerre, which ended in a goalless draw. In that encounter, Strasbourg dominated with 73% possession, registered an xG of 1.08, and had five shots on target, but luck was not on the "Racers'" side.

Paris Team Overview
⚫ Paris have managed to stabilize their game recently, avoiding defeat in their last three league matches despite facing some strong opponents. The change in head coach has played a part in this. However, despite regularly picking up points, the capital club find themselves in a potentially precarious position, sitting 13th in the standings. Paris have long been knocked out of the Coupe de France, so their focus is solely on Ligue 1, which is crucial given their short bench.
🔵 In their latest outing, Paris drew with Lyon, delivering an impressive performance against one of the league's frontrunners. Paris could have even clinched a win in that match but conceded a penalty in the 90+6th minute. Prior to this, Antoine Kombouaré's side faced a tough challenge against Nice, where they secured a narrow 1-0 victory.
