Thierry Laurey opts for just the one change from the hosts’ victory against Bordeaux. Ludovic Ajorque drops out up top and Bellegarde is the man to replace him. This change means Lienard will move further forward to partner Diallo in attack.

With Lille grabbing a crucial 1-0 victory at Parc des Princes last weekend, the visitors sit second in the French top-flight, three points behind the league-leaders. Most recently, the Parisians travelled to Germany, where they ran out 3-2 winners in the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final tie against Bayern Munich.
Strasbourg are 13th in the league but they have taken points off both league-leaders Lille and third-placed Monaco recently. Last time out, the hosts took an early three-goal lead against Bordeaux and managed to clinch a 3-2 victory, collecting just their second win in their last six Ligue 1 games.
Hello and welcome to live coverage of the Ligue 1 fixture between Strasbourg and Paris-Saint Germain.
