Prediction: 1-1
Reims
Allianz Riviera will host Saturday’s matinee between Nice and Reims, the two top-table sides. Les Aiglons aim to recover from a 1-0 loss to Nantes and you should know that they are eyeing their fourth consecutive win at home ground. Defender Youcef Atal misses out through suspension, while midfielder Sofiane Diop has yet to overcome a broken toe.
Les Rouges et Blancs, on the other hand, aim to climb to the Champions League berth, but beating Nice on the road is easier said than done. Taking everything into account, we predict that the two sides are going to share the spoils in the Serie A round 15. As for the away team, all Marshall Munetsi, Josh Wilson-Esbrand, Ibrahim Diakite, and Atangana Edoa are out of contention with injuries. In their last meeting in the French top flight the two sides played out a goalless draw and we predict that history is going to repeat itself.

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.
