"Starting with the hosts, while Strasbourg might have watched Liam Rosenior leave the Stade de la Meinau for Premier League giants Chelsea last month, Le Racing appear to be enjoying life under new boss Gary O'Neil. Despite eventually falling to a 2-1 loss at home against reigning domestic and European champions PSG over the weekend, they have won each of their other three appearances across all competitions and the ex-Wolves manager has seen his squad suffer just a single defeat from their last nine outings."
"Strasbourg Team News Not making a single appearance across any competition since the end of August, Strasbourg will once again be without former Manchester United youngster Max Oyedele. However, serving a one-match domestic suspension over the weekend, ex-Brighton misfit Valentin Barco could be handed a full recall. With O'Neil expected to make a handful of alterations on Thursday night, summer recruit Lucas Hogsberg could be handed a chance from the start. Recording 11 Ligue 1 strikes this season, Argentinian striker Joaquin Panichelli should spearhead Strasbourg's charge."
Strasbourg have responded positively under new boss Gary O'Neil, suffering just one defeat in their last nine outings and winning three of their most recent four matches. Strasbourg lost 2-1 at home to PSG but ended January with a 4-1 away win at Lille and have tallied 33 Ligue 1 goals, the best attacking return outside the European spots. Max Oyedele remains unavailable, Valentin Barco could return after a one-match suspension, Lucas Hogsberg may start, and Joaquin Panichelli has 11 league goals. Monaco followed a dominant 4-0 victory over Rennes and sit just one point above the top-half relegation threshold.
