Reims are welcoming Strasbourg for another important game after their 4-0 result against 11th-placed Montpellier.
There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
Reims form and stats
Three Ligue 1 home games done for Reims, who are not happy collecting 0 points from these matches. Game days at Stade Auguste-Delaune II have recently become somewhat of a nightmare for Reims as they have lost three home games in a row. It hurts.
Happy days for Reims in their previous game, a Ligue 1 match away at Montpellier (placed 11th) that ended with a 4-0 victory. Preceding that match was a defeat to Lorient (1-3).
As indicated by the result mentioned above, Reims played a great game against Montpellier and beat them comfortably. Expectations are high for this one. Boulaye Dia was absolutely essential when Reims beat Montpellier 4-0, scoring three goals.
This is expected to be a close game, with Reims perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Reims as a small favourite), we find ten games. Reims has won five of these, drawn four and lost one.
The lack of attacking qualities in Reims means that they have only scored 1 goal in 3 league home games, less than half a goal per match. Goals are flowing in at the wrong end for Reims with 6 goals conceded in these matches.
Strasbourg form and stats
Playing away, Strasbourg have won 1 game, drawn 0 and suffered 3 defeats in the Ligue 1 this season.
Two travels in a row for Strasbourg, whose manager T. Laurey could celebrate last time after the Ligue 1 win against Brest. Preceding that, the 2-3 home loss versus Olympique Lyonnais.
As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found twelve similar matches played by Strasbourg in our archives, and the results are: five wins for Strasbourg, three draws and four defeats.
The travelling fans enjoy Strasbourg's attacking play in away games, having scored 6 goals in 4 league matches away. For Strasbourg, more than two goals on average per game end up in their own net.
