Reims have won all five clashes with the bottom seven, including three away trips
Strasbourg have lost each of their last four matches
The hosts have conceded 27 goals in their 13 Ligue 1 games this season
Reims can add to hosts’ poor run
Strasbourg are enjoying a solid season under former Hull City boss Liam Rosenior, but they have hit a tricky run of form going into this weekend. The hosts have lost four games on the bounce, leaving them in a tricky spot going into this encounter with Reims.
The visitors are firmly midtable in Ligue 1, something they’ve achieved by picking off the league’s weakest sides. The visitors have picked up just three points in eight clashes with sides from 11th and above, but they’ve got a 100% record against the bottom seven.
That record includes victories against Angers, Le Harve and Nantes on the road. Reims have scored 14 goals across their five victories against the league’s strugglers, which suggests they can pick off a Strasbourg side who have conceded 27 goals in 13 games this season.
Defensively, the home side been shaky of late, letting in 10 goals across their last 10 and scoring just three times. As a result, Reims draw no bet stands out here.
