Angers
Sunday’s football game at Stade de la Meinau pits together Strasbourg and Angers, the two teams who finished the last season in the bottom half of the table. Strasbourg aim to make amends for the unsuccessful Ligue 1 campaign, and we are positive that they will go all guns blazing at les Scoistes. Star signing Kevin Gameiro is likely to make his Strasbourg debut against Angers.
Gerald Baticle’s troops, on the other hand, are not regarded as good travelers, and seeing that Strasbourg chiefs did well to reinforce the squad in the summer transfer window, home win should be considered. You should bear in mind that under 2.5 goals have been netted in each of the previous three encounters between the two teams. Angers attacker Lois Diony left the club to join Serbian champions Crvena Zvezda in the summer.
Highlighted Player (Adrien Thomasson):
A midfielder with a keen eye for a precise pass, Adrian Thomasson is a French international who plays for Ligue 1 side Strasbourg. Thomasson is a versatile asset who can be equally deployed in a number of different positions up front, including a holding position at the centre of the park.
He began his professional career at Evian in 2012 and spent three years with Les Roses before moving to Nantes in 2015. One league match shy from entering the 100-game club, Adrien Thomasson scored nine goals for the Canaries before joining Strasbourg in the summer of 2018.
As a player who likes to hold on to the ball and build play from behind, Thomasson boasts impressive passing ability. Albeit an attacking midfielder who can play on both wings and in advanced midfield position, this French footballer also makes quite a contribution in defense.
Highlighted Team (Angers):
French Football Federation was founded in 1919, with French football club Angers being founded the same year. Les Scoistes returned to the French top flight at the end of the 2014/2015 season and they finished the 2015/2016 Ligue 1 campaign in ninth place in the standings.
Angers were having their ups and downs in the 2016/2017 season and, as a result, they finished 12th. Les Scoistes are well known for their black jerseys with white stripes, whilst the color of their away kits is white. Stade Raymond Kopa is the team’s home ground and the capacity of the stadium is 17.835.
The venues was opened back in 1912 and the stadium’s record attendance is 22.989 (April 26, 1969 vs. Olympique Marseille). Speaking of the club’s most notable players, we have to mention Fahid Ben Khalfallah, Vladica Kovacevic, Claudiu Keseru, Paul Alo’o, Amar Rouai and Cedric Daury. It has to be noted that the 2017/2018 season will be their 24th in the French top flight.
