Nice will host Strasbourg on Sunday - Ligue 1

[ad_1]

Nice will host Strasbourg at the Allianz Riviera on Sunday in the second gameweek of the 2022-23 Ligue 1 campaign.

The Eaglets had to settle for a point in their league opener in their 1-1 draw against the league’s newcomers Toulouse. They struggled to find their feet in the first half and were a goal down at the interval. Former Juventus midfielder Aaron Ramsey came off the bench to rescue a point for Lucien Favre’s side.

Strasbourg, meanwhile, suffered defeat in their first Ligue 1 outing of the season, losing 2-1 to Monaco in an end-to-end clash at the Stade de la Meinau. The Blue and Whites found themselves two goals down minutes after the restart before Habib Diallo headed home a late consolation.

Strasbourg will hit the road for the first time this season and will hope to pick up maximum points.

Strasbourg, meanwhile, will look to bounce back from their opening day defeat. They, however, struggled for results away from home towards the end of last season and could lose here.
