Prediction: 3-2
Reims
Bordeaux and Reims take on each other at Stade Matmut Atlantique in the Ligue 1 round 12. Les Girondins have recorded only one win in the new domestic campaign, and, no doubt, they are determined to pick up all three points from Sunday’s football match. Both Jean Onana and Otavio are banned for the hosts, while Ui-Jo Hwang and Paul Baysse are sidelined with injuries.
Les Rouges et Blancs, on the other hand, aim to escape the relegation zone. Reims, though, failed to impress in a 2-1 loss to Troyes, which is the main reason why home win should be considered. In their last encounter in the French top flight Bordeaux defeated Reims 2-1, which is yet another reason why punters from all around the globe can find value in betting on the hosts. Andrew Gravillon misses out through suspension, while Thomas Foket, Marshall Munetsi, Fraser Hornby, and Arber Zeneli remain in the recovery room.
Highlighted Player (Mexer):
Edson Andre Sitoe “Mexer”, who was born in Maputo, Mozambique on September 8, 1988, began his senior career at Desportivo Maputo and he scored three goals in 97 appearances for the club. Mexer played for his home-town club from 2006 to 2010 and in the winter of 2010 he joined Portuguese side Sporting for a fee of €173,000.
The Mozambique centre-back was quickly loaned to Olhanense and it has to be noted that he made 39 appearances for the Primeira Liga club in the league. In 2012 he was sold to fellow Portuguese outfit Nacional and after playing 57 league games for the club, Mexer moved to France. The 187-cm-tall footballer signed a contract with Rennes in January, 2014 and he has been playing for les Rouges et Noirs ever since.
Mexer made his debut for Mozambique national team in 2007 and he represented Os Mambas at the 2010 Africa Cup of Nations. He scored his first goal for Mozambique in a 5-0 win over South Sudan in the 2015 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers.
Highlighted Team (Reims):
Reims are a French football club founded in 1931. Reims welcome their rivals at Stade Auguste Delaune, which can hold up to 21,684 people. Believe it or not, Reims won six Ligue 1 titles (1948/1949, 1952/1953, 1954/1955, 1957/1958, 1959/1960, 1961/1962). To make things even better for the fans, Reims participated in the European Cup final on two occasions.
In 1956 they faced Real Madrid in the title game and despite taking the lead after six minutes, the French side eventually suffered a 4-3 loss to los Blancos at Parc des Princes. Three years later Reims had a chance to get their revenge on Real Madrid, but the Spanish giants once again won the European Cup, with Mateos and Di Stefano finding the net in the 2-0 victory over Albert Batteux.
The club’s most notable footballer is Just Fontaine, who scored 13 goals for France at the 1958 FIFA World Cup finals. Reims’ home colours are red and white, with the team wearing white when playing on the road.
