Our prediction for this Ligue 1 match:
Reims
Match Time & Date:

Prediction: 2-1
Brest
Stade Auguste-Delaune will host Sunday’s football game between Reims and Brest, the two bottom-table sides. Reims head into the match following a 2-1 loss to Lille, but their form in 2021 has been anything but poor. Les Rouges et Blancs defeated St Etienne in their last home game in the Ligue 1, which is surely giving fans a reason for optimism ahead of the visit of Brest. Les Pirates, on the other hand, aim to make amends for back-to-back losses to PSG and Rennes in the previous two league fixtures.
Brest have been struggling on the travels of late, and seeing that Reims have been producing fine displays at home of late, we predict that the visitors are going to return home empty-handed. Both Berisha and Donis are sidelined with injuries for the hosts, while Bain and Cibois have both been struggling with injuries of late.
