Reims form and stats

Things could have gone better for Reims in their Ligue 1 away matches, but 3 points from 2 games is all right.

Two trips in a row for Reims, whose manager Still could celebrate last time after the win against Montpellier. Midfield player Teuma was the top player of the team with a match rating of 9.4/10. Teuma scored two goals, served one assist and hit four key passes.

A home win before that, celebrating 2-0 vs Clermont.

Reims have the goal stats of 4-3 (for/against) from 2 business trips in the league at this early stage of the season.

Head 2 Head

Metz have avoided defeat in the last 8 games (4-4-0) versus Reims.
