Season ticket holders at Stade Auguste-Delaune II haven’t seen too many victories this season, with Reims languishing in the 17th position so far. The guesting Nice will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.
- Reims have conceded at least twice as many goals as they have scored at home.
- Nice have scored at least twice as many goals as they have conceded away.
Nice could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a Europa League game only three sleeps ago.
These teams have little in common geographically as Nice have to travel 900 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.
Reims form and stats
Reims have played 5 Ligue 1 games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 1-0-4 (wins-draws-losses).
Reims are anxiously hoping for a goal as it's been 189 minutes since the last one in league fixtures. (Scored by B. Dia).
In their previous game, the manager D. Guion led his Reims to a defeat in the Ligue 1 match away at Olympique Lyonnais. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Stade Auguste-Delaune II. Ahead of that match, Reims lost 0-1 at home to Nimes.
The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Reims have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found ten matches with the results: Won five, drawn four and lost one.
Reims have scored 3 league goals here from 5 matches, not a lot. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Reims defense is not exactly impregnable. 8 goals conceded from 5 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.
Nice form and stats
Playing away, Nice have won 3 games, drawn 1 and suffered 1 defeat in the Ligue 1 this season. Nice has recorded two wins in a row in their away matches and hold legitimate hopes of a third one.
Nice might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Bayer Leverkusen proved too strong as Nice slumped to a 2-3 defeat in front of their own fans at Allianz Riviera. A loss against Dijon was the result prior to that, in a Ligue 1 home game.
It's a bit worrying for Nice that their goalkeeper Walter Benítez made six saves in the Bayer Leverkusen game last time out, but still couldn''t prevent the loss.
So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Nice playing away and similar expectations, we found ten relevant matches. Results were five Nice wins, three draws and two defeats.
Nice has another fixture away, a Europa League game, against Hapoel Be'er Sheva in just four days. A tough schedule for the visitors!
The travelling fans enjoy Nice's attacking play in away games, having scored 9 goals in 5 league matches away. They concede less than a goal on average per away game (4 so far).
