Match Time & Date:

21:00
Prediction: 1-1
Monaco
Stade Auguste-Delaune will be the centre of attention when Reims and Monaco lock horns in the Ligue 1 round 8. Reims aim to build on back-to-back wins over Lille and Lyon and they are surely capable of matching Adi Hutter’s troops. Thomas Foket is banned for the match, while both Maxime Busi and Josh Wilson-Esbrand are sidelined with injuries.
Monaco, on the other hand, aim to build on a thrilling 3-2 win over Olympique Marseille and given their attacking potential, we believe that punters from all around the globe can find value in betting on both teams to score. The visitors will be without Caio Henrique, Eliesse Ben Seghir, Mohammed Salisu, and Breel Embolo in Saturday’s clash. One of the men to watch in the visiting team will be Maghnes Akliouche, who scored a brace in the Ligue 1 derby at the weekend.
Highlighted Player (Wissam Ben Yedder):
Wissam Ben Yedder was born in Sarcelles, France on 12 August, 1990, but he has yet to make his France debut at senior level. The 170-cm-tall striker, though, played three games for France U21 team and he made two appearances for France Futsal team as well.
Ben Yedder began his club career at UJA Alfortville and he moved to Toulouse in 2010. After scoring 63 goals in 156 league appearances for les Pitchouns, the pacey attacker joined La Liga side Sevilla on 30 July, 2016. Wissam Ben Yedder made his Sevilla debut on 14 August, 2016 in a 2-0 loss to Barcelona in the Spanish Super Cup. The former Toulouse forward scored his first goal in the Spanish top flight in Sevilla’s 6-4 win over Espanyol in the opening match of the 2016/2017 season.
Ben Yedder started his youth career at Garges-les-Gonesse and he played for the Saint-Denis at the start of his football career as well. You should bear in mind that Ben Yedder is Toulouse’s best scorer of the 21st century.
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.
