Prediction: 1-1
Lille
Reims and Lille take on each other at Stade Auguste-Delaune in what is expected to be an interesting Ligue 1 encounter. Les Rouges et Blancs desperately needed a win against Le Havre and they managed to get one, with the team putting an end to their four-match winless run. Even though defender Thomas Foket misses out through suspension, we predict that the hosts are going to grab something from Saturday’s clash.
Les Dogues, on the other hand, experienced all sorts of problems at the back in a 3-1 loss to Toulouse. Lille obviously struggle on the travels and, taking everything into account, the share of spoils is on the cards at Stade Auguste-Delaune. All Tiago Morais, Rafael Fernandes, Remy Cabella, Andrej Ilic, Samuel Umtiti, and Ivan Cavaleiro are out of contention with injuries for the visiting team. It has to be noted that both sides managed to find the net in five of their last six meetings in the French top flight.

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.
