Advice please: daytime or overnight?

I am hoping to fly to Nairobi later in the year from Basel or Strasbourg ... and have the 'choice' with various airline cartels offering both day or night flights based on whose aircraft is operating the code share on any given date.

Flight time is around 10 hours, give or take transfer times on the ground, and there is very little time difference.

Could anyone more experienced than I give me their thoughts about the advantages or disadvantages of flying by day or by night. I will be travelling in Economy (bargain basement) class.

Many thanks for your thoughts.

(By the way, whenever I fly, I need to use a battery-operated CPAP machine when I sleep if that changes things.)
