Prediction: 2-0
Reims
Nice welcome Reims at their Allianz Riviera in the opening match of the season. Nice were playing below expectations in pre-season and they head into Saturday’s football game following a heavy 3-0 loss to fellow Ligue 1 side Saint-Etienne. Les Aiglons are determined to get back on course and seeing that they are a real force to be reckoned with at home, we predict that they are going to give fans some cheer this weekend. Mario Balotelli, who scored 18 goals in the French top flight last season, will be the man to watch in the home team. Reims, on the other hand, are eager to prove their worth on their return to the Ligue 1, but they face an uphill task in Saturday’s clash against Nice. When the two teams met at Allianz Riviera two years ago Nice recorded a routine 2-0 win over Reims and the history is likely 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.
