Reims form and stats

Reims, who have the fewest conceded goals (2) in Ligue 1, must be fairly happy with 5 points from their first three Ligue 1 games here at Stade Auguste-Delaune II.

Happy days for Reims in their previous game, a Ligue 1 match away at PSG (placed 1st) that ended with a 2-0 victory. In the match before that, Reims hosted Monaco and drew the game 0-0.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Reims have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found nine games) they have won 3 times, drawn 3 and lost 3.

Reims have scored 2 league goals here from 3 matches, not a lot. As for guarding their own goal, Reims have only let in 0 goals at home.

Dijon form and stats

No Ligue 1 points yet away for Dijon, from their first 3 matches. Three might be a magic number, but there's been little wizardry in Dijon's last three away games as they have all been lost.

There were no winners in Dijon's previous match, a Ligue 1 home game that ended 0-0 vs Olympique Marseille (placed 6th). A 1-2 defeat away at Nice before that.

We have checked recent matches where Dijon have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those eleven games were W1-D1-L9.

Dijon are seemingly not capable of scoring regularly on their travels in the league. They have only managed 1 goal from 3 away games. Dijon have conceded 5 goals in these games.

Head 2 Head

Numbers for the last ten meetings between these two teams are: 2 wins for Reims, 3 draws and 5 wins for Dijon. Over 2,5 goals: 6 times; under 2,5 goals: 4 games.
