Prediction: 2-2
Strasbourg
Montpellier play host to Strasbourg at their Stade de la Mosson on day 8 of the new Ligue 1 season. La Paillade suffered yet another dip in form, with the team losing to both Lille and Angers in the previous two league fixtures, but they are surely capable of matching Strasbourg on home soil. Both Valere Germain and Jonas Omlin are back from suspension, while the likes of Maouassa, Sainte-Luce, Bertaud, Mendes, and Mavididi remain in the recovery room.
Le Racing, on the other hand, have yet to find their form, with the team still eyeing their first win of the process. Strasbourg have drawn each of their last three league fixtures, and, taking everything into account, the share of spoils is on the cards. Both Sanjin Prcic and Maxime Le Marchand miss out through suspension for the visiting side, while all Kawashima, Delaine, Lienard, Nyamsi, and Fila remain in the recovery room.
Highlighted Player (Téji Savanier):
Born in Montpellier on December 22, 1991, Teji Savanier is a French footballer who plays for Nimes in the Ligue 1 as a midfielder. Savanier began his senior career at Arles-Avignon and it has to be noted that he played for the club from 2011 to 2015.
Ahead of the start of the 2015/2016 Ligue 2 campaign, Teji Savanier joined Nimes and he has been playing for the club ever since. The 171-cm tall midfielder has established himself as a first-team regular at Nimes and he successfully plays for the club in the French top flight. Savanier’s main position is central midfield, but he is used as an attacking midfielder as well. His preferred foot is right.
Despite producing fine performances for Nimes in all competitions, Teji Savanier has yet to receive a call-up for the French national football team. His contract with Nimes should expire on June 27, 2018.
Highlighted Team (Strasbourg):
Founded back in 1906, Strasbourg is a professional football team that compete in French Ligue 1. Le Racing did remarkably well to win the 1979 Ligue 1 trophy and that is considered the biggest success in the history of the club. Strasbourg won Coupe de France on three occasions (1951, 1966, 2001) and they have three Coupe de la Ligue trophies as well (1964, 1997, 2005). Strasbourg’s main rivals are Metz and the two teams face each other in the Derby de l’Est (The Eastern derby).
Le Racing recorded their biggest victory over Valenciennes (10-0) in the 1937-1938 season, whilst they suffered their biggest loss to Limoges (0-8) in the 1959/1960 season. Paraguayan goalkeeper Jose Luis Chilavert, who is well known for his free-kick abilities, played for the club from 2000 to 2003, but he failed to score in a league match during his spell with the Stade de la Meinau outfit. Speaking of Stade de la Meinau, Strasbourg’s home ground was opened back in 1914 and the capacity of the venue is 29,320.
