Prediction: 2-1
Reims
Buoyed by the Champions League win over Real Sociedad, Paris Saint-Germain will look to retain top position in the standings when they take on Reims in Saturday’s matinee. Les Parisiens are eyeing their ninth home win of the process, but keep in mind that Luis Enrique should rest several first-team regulars against Les Rouges et Blancs. Both Kylian Mbappe and Ousmane Dembele should drop to the bench, with Randal Kolo Muani and Goncalo Ramos likely to step up.
All Marco Asensio, Layvin Kurzawa, Milan Skriniar, Sergio Rico, Presnel Kimpembe remain in the recovery room. Reims, on the other hand, failed to impress in a 1-0 loss to Lille and regardless of which players will be deployed in PSG’s starting XI, home win should be considered. To make things even worse for the away team, defender Thomas Foket is banned for the Parc des Princes showdown.
Highlighted Player (Kylian Mbappé):
Kylian Mbappe is a French footballer who plays for Paris Saint-Germain as a forward. The French rising star began his youth career at AS Bondy and in 2013 he moved to AS Monaco. After making 12 appearances for Monaco B, Kylian Mbappe made his debut for the senior team in 2015. Mbappe quickly established himself as a regular goalscorer, with the teenager finding the net 15 times in 29 appearances in the Ligue 1 in the 2016/2017 season.
In 2017 he moved to fellow French club PSG on loan, with the option of making the deal permanent. Kylian Mbappe scored 13 goals in 27 appearances for les Parisiens in the 2017/2018 and it has to be noted that Unai Emery’s troops eventually won the national championship.
Speaking of his international career, Mbappe played an important role for France at the 2018 FIFA World Cup finals, with the pacey rising star scoring a brace in a thrilling 4-3 win over Argentina in the last 16 of the showpiece tournament. The PSG attacker was born in Paris on December 20, 1998.
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.
