At the Ligue 1 match at the Parc Olympique Lyonnais the hosts arrive with 49 units, two less than Lille, a streak of three victories in a row and the second best offense of the tournament, only surpassed by PSG, third in the table with 48 points.
Les Gones have the best offensive trident so far this season, with Memphis Depay, 11 goals, Karl Toko Ekambi (10) and Tino Kadewere (nine).
Strasbourg are 15th with 25 points and on paper they look like easy prey for a club that has so far had seven wins, three draws and a setback in the 38-game campaign at home.
Also this Saturday, the fifth in the standings Rennes (37) visits the seventh Lens (35) in an interesting challenge based at the Felix Bollaert-Delelis stadium, while Lorient (19) and Reims (28) collide in a match without particular interest.
Date 24 will continue tomorrow with seven games, with highlights for the trip of the pointer Lile (51) to Nantes (19) and of PSG (48) to the Vélodrome, the court of the ailing Olympique de Marseille (33), in a classic of the French soccer.
For its part, the fourth in the table Monaco (45) will be a wide favorite at the home of bottom Nimes (15), who yesterday fired coach Jérome Arpinon.
