Prediction: 1-1
Reims
Stade Raymond-Kopa will host Sunday’s Ligue 1 game between Angers and Reims, the two teams who are almost level on points in the standings. Angers were producing excellent display in the first half of the season, but they are on a six-game losing run in the French top flight ahead of the visit of Reims. Both Mathias Pereira Lage and Jimmy Cabot are sidelined with injuries, but there are no suspended players in the home team.
Les Rouges et Blancs, on the other hand, head into the match following a 1-1 draw with Strasbourg. Reims are nine points clear of the relegation zone, and seeing that they should be happy with one point from the match, we are tempted to put our money on draw. All Hugo Ekitike, Thomas Foket, El Bilal Toure, Andrew Gravillon, and Valon Berisha remain on the sidelines with injuries, speaking of the away side.

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.
