207 minutes! That's how long the Reims goalkeeper Predrag Rajkovic and his defense have shut out their league opponents.
There were no winners in Reims's previous match, a Ligue 1 home game that ended 0-0 vs Lorient (placed 7th). Goalkeeper Predrag Rajković got the top player rating of the team with 7.82/10. Rajković stopped the opponent with three saves and topped it up with a clean sheet.
Before that one, a nice away victory 2-0 at Rennes.As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites.

Results were one away win, two draws and one home win.
The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Nantes in just four days.
