Strasbourg team news
Centre-back Alexander Djiku was sent off in Strasbourg's 1-1 draw at Troyes, so Frederic Antonetti could deploy Gerzino Nyamsi - who came on as a substitute - in central defence.
Saturday's hosts will also have to make do without Thomas Delaine, Eji Kawashima and Eduard Sobol.

Strasbourg vs PSG score prediction
A point is all PSG need to wrap up their 11th Ligue 1 title and they appear to have found their groove again after consecutive defeats to Rennes and Lyon either side of March's international break.
However, recent wins haven't been without issues and Strasbourg should have confidence in breaking down the visitors' at times lax defending.
Such quality in attack regularly makes PSG favourites in Ligue 1 matches and that's the case again here, though a complacent loss would officially take the title race to the final day.
