Prediction: 3-2
Lorient
Reims and Lorient square off against each other at Stade Auguste-Delaune in what is expected to be one of the most exciting games of the weekend. Les Rouges et Blancs have been having their ups and downs of late, with the team beating Lyon 2-0, losing to Monaco, while sharing the spoils with Toulouse. Reims are eyeing their third home win of the season, but they will have to showcase their worth on the field. All Azor Matusiwa, Keito Nakamura, Teddy Teuma, and Maxime Busi are sidelined with injuries.
Les Merlus, on the other hand, aim to build on a 2-1 win over Rennes and given their attacking potential, we believe that there is a big value in betting on over 2.5 goals. All Dembo Sylla, Benjamin Mendy, Bonke Innocent, Bamba Dieng, and Quentin Boisgard continue to miss out with injuries, speaking of the visiting team.
Highlighted Team (Lorient):
Founded back in 1926, Lorient is a French football club that competes in Ligue 1. Les Merlus have yet to win the Ligue 1 trophy, but they did well to go all the way in the Coupe de France in the 2001/02 season. In the title game, Lorient defeated Bastia thanks to Jean-Claude Darcheville’s goal.
The same season les Merlus made it to the Coupe de la Ligue final, but Bordeaux proved to be a big catch (0-3) for them in the title game. Lorient welcome their rivals at Stade du Moustoir, the stadium which can hold up to 16,392 spectators. The colour of the team’s home shirt is orange with a little black on it, while white is the dominant colour of their away jersey. In the 2002/03 season Lorient represented France in European competitions.
Les Merlus, though, failed to impress on their debut in the UEFA Cup as they were beaten by Denizlispor in the round 1 double-header.
