Montpellier
Match Time & Date:
24/02/2019
09:00 AM
Prediction: 1-1
Reims
After sharing the spoils with the likes of Nimes, Monaco and Lille in previous three league fixtures, Montpellier will be aiming to get back on course when they welcome Reims at their Stade de la Mosson. La Paillade are undefeated in previous six league games and, as a result, they are still in the race for a place in European competitions. Montpellier face Reims on Matchday 26 and seeing that two teams are level on points in the Ligue 1 standings, a close encounter is on the cards at Stade de la Mosson. Reims proved their worth in a 2-0 win over Reims in front of home fans at the weekend, but seeing that they produce better displays at home than on the travels, we believe that there is a big value in betting on draw. You should bear in mind, though, that Montpellier emerged triumphant in previous four meetings with Reims.

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.
