Competition: Ligue 1

Market: PSG to score in both halves

Odds: 4/5 @ BetUS

Marking their return from October’s international break on Saturday night, PSG will welcome Strasbourg to the French capital.

Starting with the hosts, heading into October’s international break with just a single victory from any of their final four appearances across all competitions, PSG are seeking a welcomed boost this weekend. Nevertheless, while Luis Enrique’s men might mark their return on Saturday night sat second in the Ligue 1 standings, the former Barcelona boss finds his squad pencilled in as a landslide contender to make more domestic history this season. Smelling a real opportunity here, the French giants have continued to gain a fearsome reputation for their free-scoring performances in the final third. In fact, PSG have registered 21 goals from just their first seven Ligue 1 showdowns so far this season. Likewise, signing off August with a stellar 6-0 romp against Montpellier, Enrique’s side will be excited by their success on home soil. It should be highlighted, Saturday’s hosts have won each of their first four battles in Paris by an aggregate score of 13-2.

As for the visitors, while Strasbourg might have suffered just a single defeat from any of their first seven Ligue 1 appearances so far this season, Liam Rosenior’s men will be seeking some top-flight stability. Heading into October’s international break with a lively 2-2 stalemate against Lens, the former Hull boss will have a headache over his side’s extended struggles at the back. Signing off August with an action-packed 4-3 loss at the hands of Lyon, Saturday’s guests have registered just a single clean sheet since opening up the new campaign. Likewise, it should also be highlighted, the Alsace-based outfit have already shipped 14 goals so far this season. Facing what will be a monumental challenge this weekend, Strasbourg should also be concerned by a nightmare record against the defending champions. In fact, Rosenior’s side have failed to win any of their previous 14 consecutive showdowns against PSG.
