Prediction: 2-1
Caen
Despite being regarded as big underdogs in Wednesday’s football match against PSG, Strasbourg did remarkably well to hold the reigning champions to a 1-1 draw in front of home fans. Le Racing managed to claim a major scalp on Matchday 16, but they do not want to stop now. Strasbourg aim to move a little closer to the Europa League berth and we predict that they are going to adopt an attack-minded approach in Sunday’s clash against Caen. Fabien Mercadal’s charges, on the other hand, suffered a dip in form, with the team failing to win previous eight league fixtures. Caen must be low on confidence ahead of the trip to Strasbourg and considering that le Racing impressed in the 1-1 draw with les Parisiens, we are tempted to put our money on the hosts. A man to watch in the home team will be Nuno Da Costa, who has netted four goals so far this term.

Highlighted Player (Adrien Thomasson):
A midfielder with a keen eye for a precise pass, Adrien 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 (Caen):
Caen are a French football club that compete in Ligue 1. Caen were founded in 1913 under the name of The Stade Malherbe Caennais and back then Stade de Venoix was the club’s home ground. Nowadays SMC play their home games at Stade Michel d’Ornano and the capacity of the venue is 20.453. Caen finished the 1991/1992 Ligue 1 campaign in fifth position in the standings, 14 points behind champions Marseille and that is considered the club’s best result in the French top flight. In 2005 Caen made it to the Coupe de la Ligue final, but Strasbourg proved to be a big catch for Patrick Remy’s troops. The Stade Michel d’Ornano outfit play their home games in red shirts with blue stripes (vertical), while gray and black are their away colours. Nicolas Seube is the club’s most capped player and it has to be noted that he made no less than 477 appearances for SMC during his spell with the club.
