Strasbourg vs Breidablik Prediction: Le Racing to rise to the occasion

After five rounds of fixtures, RC Strasbourg lead the league phase of the 2025/26 Uefa Conference League, having picked up more points (13) than the other 35 teams. Liam Rosenior's side have already secured their spot in the last 16, but a victory over Breidablik, who need to win on Thursday (20:00 GMT, TNT Sports 8) to stand a chance of claiming a play-off place, would crown Le Racing as champions of the league phase.

Team News

Strasbourg are without Max Oyedele (groin), Saidou Sow (knee) and Emmanuel Emegha (thigh) due to injury, while Ivory Coast international Guela Doue departed for the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations earlier this week.

Football Odds

Breidablik, whose Icelandic league season finished in October, don't appear to have any injury concerns. Head coach Olaf Skulason could name the same starting XI that beat Shamrock Rovers 3-1 in Reykjavik last week, with Viktor Margeirsson and Oli Omarsson both on the scoresheet before substitute Kristinn Jonsson grabbed their third in second-half stoppage time.

Strasbourg vs Breidablik Odds

Strasbourg beat Crystal Palace 2-1 in their last European home game, and Thursday's hosts are heavy favourites (2/9) to beat Breidablik, who are 12/1, or a 7.7% chance, to triumph on their travels, with the draw priced at 6/1.

To Win to Nil - Strasbourg @ 11/10

Strasbourg are so far unbeaten in the league phase, winning four and drawing one of their first five games, and Rosenior will be desperate for his side to maintain that record on the final matchday. A victory will be the aim, as three points would clinch top spot.

Le Racing conceded once in each of their first four matches before keeping their first clean sheet of the league phase in a 1-0 win at Aberdeen last Thursday, and there will be real confidence in the French side's ranks that they can record shutout number two this week.

Today's Football Fixtures

Breidablik, who lost two and drew two of their first four matches before securing their first league-phase victory at home to Shamrock Rovers last Thursday, failed to get on the scoresheet in their opening three contests.

The Icelandic outfit kicked off their campaign with a 3-0 loss at Lausanne-Sport before drawing 0-0 at home to KuPS and losing 2-0 'away' to Shakhtar in Krakow, Poland.

Breidablik have scored five goals across their last two European outings, drawing 2-2 at home with Samsunspor on November 27, but they remain goalless on their Conference League travels, and it's difficult to see them getting any change out of a Strasbourg side that kept back-to-back clean sheets last week, following up their win in Scotland with a goalless draw at home to FC Lorient in Ligue 1 on Sunday.
