Our prediction for this Ligue 1 match:
Reims and St Etienne face each other at Stade Auguste-Delaune in what is expected to be a close Ligue 1 encounter. Les Rouges aim to recover from a 1-0 loss to Nice and they are surely capable of matching les Verts at home ground. Teenager Ange Tia picked up a knock in the last league match, with Mamadou Diakhon being ready to step up. Anyhow, home win should be considered as Reims are determined to escape the danger zone.
St Etienne, on the other hand, face a must-win situation in Saturday’s game as they are five points behind the safe zone. Considering that les Verts are likely to adopt an attack-minded approach this time out, we predict that Reims are going to seal the victory on the road. There are no fresh injury worries in the away team ahead of Saturday’s relegation six-pointer.
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.
