Our prediction for this Ligue 1 match:
Reims play host to Clermont at their Stade Auguste-Delaune in the Ligue 1 round 15. Les Rouges et Blancs failed to win the previous six league fixtures, and, no doubt, they are eager to put an end to the negative trend. All Fode Doucoure, Thomas Foket, Marshall Munetsi, Fraser Hornby, and Arber Zeneli are out of contention through injuries. The newcomers, on the other hand, suffered a dip in form, with the team losing each of their last four league fixtures.
Clermont are desperate to return to winning ways as well, and, taking everything into account, we believe that both teams to score betting option should be considered. In their last meeting in the French top flight Clermont defeated Reims 2-1. All Saif-Eddine Khaoui, Cedric Hountondji, and Yohann Magnin are likely to miss the game with injuries for the visiting team.
