Prediction: 2-2
Nice
Sunday’s football game at Stade Auguste-Delaune pits together Reims and Nice, the two top-table sides. Les Rouges et Blancs aim to move closer to the Europa League berth and we are positive that they will adopt an attack-oriented approach against Nice. The good news for the home side is that Belgian defender Thibault De Smet is back from suspension, while all Mohammed Daramy, Adama Bojang, Teddy Teuma, and Benjamin Stambouli remain on the sidelines with injuries.
Les Aiglons, meanwhile, have suffered three defeats in the previous four league fixtures. Nice and Reims, though, seem to be evenly matched at the moment and we predict that they are going to share the spoils on Matchday 28. All Diop, Sanson, and Ndayishimiye are sidelined with injuries for the visiting side, while goalkeeper Teddy Boulhendi remains on the sidelines through suspension. In the first half of the season Nice defeated Reims 2-1.

Dante is a left-footed defender who was born in Salvador, Brazil on 18 October, 1983. The 189-cm-tall centre back, who is capable of playing as a left back as well, started his senior career at Juventude. After making 53 appearances for the club between 2002 and 2004 he moved to Ligue 1 outfit Lille.

After impressing with the Fohlen in the 2011/2012 Bundesliga campaign he moved to Bayern Munich at the end of the season and it has to be noted that he scored three goals in 83 league appearances for FCB.
In 2015 he signed a contract with fellow Bundesliga team Wolfsburg and he played 24 league games for the Wolves in the 2015/2016 season. In 2013 he won the Champions League trophy with Bayern Munich and he lifted the FIFA Confederations Cup with Brazil the same year.
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.
