RC Strasbourg – OGC Nice: a shot at the final at Stade de la Meinau 
Strasbourg host Nice. A place in the Coupe de France final is the prize, and both clubs know it. Expect a tense, tactical scrap. The crowd will be on edge from the first whistle. This one should be fierce.
Strasbourg are back on the big stage 
The home coach is steering a historic run for the club. Strasbourg had not reached this stage for more than 20 years. Their recent win over Reims has lifted the whole camp. They remain a nasty proposition in front of their own fans. The head-to-head record also leans their way. The staff are hoping for a return to the final, just like in 2001. Defensive discipline could decide it.
Nice still have a cup route to salvage their season 
Nice have been dragged through a miserable league campaign. This trophy is their chance to rescue the year. They got past Lorient on penalties in the last round. If Nice are going to reach Europe, this cup has to do the job. Their recent away form has been patchy. The back line will have to stand up to heavy home pressure. The stakes are huge in the visitors’ dressing room.
Expected lineups
Strasbourg : Penders ; Doue, Doukoure, Hogsberg, Chilwell ; Barco, El Mourabet ; Amo-Ameyaw, Nanasi, Enciso ; Fofana
Visiting side : Diouf ; Oppong, Mendy, Louchet ; Clauss, Boudaoui, Sanson, Bard ; Diop, Cho ; Wahi
Football prediction RC Strasbourg vs OGC Nice
Strasbourg to qualify
Home advantage should carry real weight on Wednesday. Strasbourg’s attacking rhythm ought to stretch the visitors’ back line.
Nice have struggled against top-flight opposition this year. The hosts have the sort of confidence that can take over a tie.
The scoreboard should end up doing what most expect and send the favourites through.

First things first, a word on our picks
- What we publish on Mathodds is analysis, nothing more. We share an opinion, a read on the moment, but never a guarantee. Sport is still sport: unpredictable. A red card, an injury, a fluke goal… and the script changes completely.
- Let’s be clear: there is no risk-free bet. Even when something looks obvious, it never really is. And yes, that means you can lose. In fact, at some point, you probably will.
- The smart move is to keep things sensible. Bet small, set a budget and stick to it. Do not touch money you need for everyday life. And above all, do not chase losses. That usually ends badly.
- A bet should stay a bit of fun, not a job or an income stream. If it starts taking over your day, or it leaves you stressed and irritated, take a break. If you need help, speak to a specialist service. That is what it is there for.
- At the end of the day, the responsibility is yours. Reading our content means accepting that risk is part of the deal and never goes away, no matter how sharp the analysis looks.
- Important reminder: betting is illegal for minors and must follow the law in your country. Gambling can spiral fast, with money problems, family tension and addiction. Need Help? Call 1-800-GAMBLER. In the UK? Visit https://www.gambleaware.org/https://www.gambleaware.org/.
No commitment from us
Our predictions are not a contract. They carry no legal weight. In plain English: you cannot use them to demand anything if a bet goes wrong.
Information changes
A prediction is always based on what we know when it is written. But then a team sheet changes, a player gets hurt, the weather turns ugly… and the analysis can be out of date in no time. We cannot be held responsible for that.
Your responsibility
Before you bet, check that gambling is legal where you are. If it is not, that is your responsibility, not ours.
