📏 Form Guide

Reims
DLLLDL ⚠
Reims will be hoping to return to winning ways here following a 3-0 Coupe De France losing effort in their last game against Paris Saint-Germain.
In that game, Reims managed 24% possession and 4 attempts on goal with 1 of them on target. Paris Saint-Germain had 20 attempts at goal with 8 of them on target. Bradley Barcola (16', 19') and Achraf Hakimi (43') scored for Paris Saint-Germain.
It has been a rare occasion in recent times that Reims have managed to hold out for a full 90 minutes. The facts show that Reims have failed to prevent opponents from scoring in 5 of their previous 6 games, giving up 9 goals in the process.
FC Metz
DLDWWD
FC Metz have been good when going forward in their most recent fixtures, scoring 11 times in their last 6 matches. While their manager Stéphane Le Mignan will no doubt take that as a positive sign, FC Metz have been somewhat leaky at the back, having also been scored against in 5 of those same outings. That sort of trend might not be carried forward into this next game, of course.
🤜🤛 Head to head
Looking at the statistics for their head to head meetings going back to 18/04/2021, neither club has come out on top overall with Reims winning 1 of those games, Metz 1 and 4 being drawn in normal time.
A combined total of 12 goals were yielded between them throughout the course of those matches, with 6 of them from Les rouges et blancs and 6 being from Les Grenats. That is an average goals per game value of 2.
🗞️ Team News: Reims
Reda Khadra (Cruciate ligament tear) and Mohamed Daramy (Knee injury) won’t be able to feature for Reims manager Samba Diawara.
📋 Team News: Metz
Owing to an otherwise full-strength group, there’s only a single fitness problem for the Metz boss Stéphane Le Mignan to be concerned with. Joel Asoro (Injury to the ankle) won’t be playing here.
⚡ Prediction
We believe that FC Metz are likely to get a goal against this Reims team, although that realistically won’t be enough to prevent defeat.
We think that it’s going to be a very close game with a 2-1 advantage for Reims at full-time. Let’s just see how this one goes.
