Strasbourg have been an entertaining watch since Gary O’Neil took charge at the club, and he’s been pretty successful in his early fixtures - earning positive results against the likes of Marseille, Monaco and Lyon as well as only narrowly losing to PSG.

Strasbourg have seen 3+ goals in each of their last five matches across all competitions, most recently running out 3-1 winners over Lyon on home soil. Strasbourg have seen 3+ goals in all eight of O’Neil’s matches in charge so far, notably only keeping one clean sheet across these fixtures which suggests that Strasbourg are taking quite a lot of risks under the tutelage of the former Wolves and Bournemouth boss.

Lens are a formidable opponent, and could still cause a real upset in the race for the title in Ligue 1 with the away side only two points behind PSG. They can leapfrog PSG ahead of their game against Le Havre on Saturday with all three points, so there should be plenty of motivation for Lens to take the game to Strasbourg.

Lens have netted 21 goals across their 11 away games in Ligue 1 this term, suggesting that Strasbourg’s recent record of failing to keep a clean sheet should continue. Strasbourg themselves have scored 20 goals across their 11 home matches and their record under O’Neil is particularly promising to suggest a goal heavy game here. 

This is another game centred around the race for the playoff spots, both Waalwijk and Eindhoven are part of the chasing pack looking to uproot Almere from their current spot in eighth in the Eerste Divisie. This battle should go right down to the final few games, so these sides are worth keeping an eye on in the coming weeks for high scoring games as well.

Both of these sides have seen BTTS in four of their last five matches across all competitions, though wins have been rare in these runs with just one apiece for both sides heading into this clash. Waalwijk have seen 44 goals across their 14 home games in the Eerste Divisie this season (3.14 per game), though they have only managed to win five of these matches which is a record that should encourage Eindhoven.

That being said, Eindhoven have only managed to win four of their 14 games on the road themselves this season - losing eight of these matches. They’ve conceded 27 goals across these games (1.92 per game), so they can’t expect to come away with a clean sheet in this clash, which sets up a game that should see goals at both ends.
