Strasbourg form and stats

The home fans saw their team lose the first Ligue 1 game of the season here at Stade de la Meinau. Last season these fans witnessed 11 wins, 5 draws and 3 losses from Strasbourg's 19 home games.

Strasbourg travelled for their previous game, a trip to Nice that ended 1-1. Midfielder Bellegarde was the best player on the team with a rating of 7.4 (out of ten) in that game. Bellegarde hit two key passes and had 31 successful passes (of 36 total).

Preceding that match was the home game against Monaco that was lost 1-2.

The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from Strasbourg's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played 4 games, won 1 match, drawn 2 and lost 1.

Early season league goal statistics from Strasbourg's 1 home game: 1 goal, 2 conceded.

Reims form and stats

Reims have played one away game so far, a loss. Last season their away games stats in the Ligue 1 were 6 victories, 7 draws and 6 defeats from 19 fixtures.

The manager Junyent was unhappy after their last game, played at their home ground Stade Auguste-Delaune II. Reims suffered a 2-4 loss to Clermont (placed 10th). A huge disappointment for Reims in their last match (vs Clermont). Leading 2-0 the victory seemed almost certain, but a fascinating collapse turned everything around and in the end all was lost in a 2-4 defeat. The attacker Balogun got a match rating of 7.6 in that game. Balogun scored one goal and dribled past the opponent 2 of 3 times.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Olympique Marseille wasn't a success with a 1-4 loss.

Looking at the earlier recent performances of Reims when being an outsider away as they are today, we find 5 matches with the visitors losing 2 times, drawing 2 and winning 1 game.

1 goal so far away for Reims, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 4. All from 1 league match away.

Head 2 Head

Reims have won or drawn the last 4 games (2-2-0) versus Strasbourg.
