Strasbourg are in all kinds of trouble at the wrong time and they would have wanted to avoid playing AS Monaco at the moment. They were beaten by Caen 2-0 in their last match making it 3 losses in 4 matches. They are now just 3 points off the relegation zone with just 10 league games left.
Strasbourg have been the most impressive of the three teams that were promoted to the Ligue 1 last season and they were the first team to beat PSG this season, but they do not look like a team that can get a result in this game at the moment.
Monaco, on the other hand, are on a good run of form and they head into this game with no losses in their last 7 games. Their 2-1 win against Bordeaux at the weekend means they are now 4 points ahead of Marseille. Their remaining fixtures look good for Monaco and they should finish inside the top two. However, their poor run earlier in the season shows that they could be very vulnerable at the back too.
Monaco have won 10 and drawn 3 of their last 16 meetings with Strasbourg.
