The Nice squad will be suffering from a feeling of disappointment after falling to a 2-1 home defeat against Nantes, which saw them drop all three points and come away from the game empty-handed.  In that game they had 77% possession and managed 21 attempts on goal, with 9 on target, compared to Nantes who had 8 attempts and 4 on target.  

They have circumvented their opponent's defence to score 8 times in their last 6 league games but unfortunately haven't managed to lock things down at their end, conceding 8 goals in these games and, in the process, missing out on some valuable points.  They have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games; however, they've scored in 25 of their 28 games this season.  

Their current form can't be viewed positively, having clocked up 3 losses from their last 6 games and only 2 wins to speak of.  

With 4 goals scored in his last 6 away games for Nice, Gaëtan Laborde will be looking to add more goals against Strasbourg in this match.
