Reims, Recent FormReims will be happy to take away 3 points from their last match, with an important 2-1 away win against Lille.
It seems pretty certain that Will Still will be quite pleased with his squad's ability to score goals in recent matches, having managed 11 goals in their past 6 outings. In contrast, however, he will be concerned that their defensive qualities look a little more fragile, with 8 goals conceded in those matches and some crucial points dropped. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games overall.
They're experiencing a disappointing spell of form at Stade Auguste-Delaune, having lost 3 of their last 6 home games and picking up only 2 wins.
Lyon, Recent FormLosing 1-0 away to Brest won't leave the Lyon squad too downbeat, given the former sits a full 14 places above them in the league. They achieved 44% possession in that match and had 6 strikes at goal, with 3 hitting the target, up against Brest's tally of 27 efforts at goal, 11 of which were on target.
Having scored just 3 goals in their last 6 games, it will be glaringly obvious to their manager Fabio Grosso where he needs to focus his attentions if they are going to get more points on the table. However, he will still have one eye on his defence which has shipped 11 in the same period. They have scored in 4 of their last 6 away games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
Results wise, their recent poor run of form has left them without a win in 7 games.
Alexandre Lacazette will be keen to get his name on the scoresheet against Reims in this match, having already scored 2 goals in his last 6 away games for Lyon.
Reims will be looking to forget their last league encounter with Lyon, when a slew of goals ended in a heavy 3-0 defeat.
Playing at home, Reims have conceded at least one goal in 2 of their last 3 league games against Lyon.
Both teams will be looking for a breakthrough in this fixture, with the last 4 meetings at Stade Auguste-Delaune ending in a draw and a share of the spoils. However, Reims will also want to maintain their unbeaten home record against Lyon which now stands at 6 games in a row.
Lyon player Alexandre Lacazette will be feeling confident about recording goals against Reims ahead of this encounter, with a scoring record of 3 goals from their last 5 meetings.
There is only really one injury concern for the Reims manager Will Still ahead of this clash, with Josh Wilson-Esbrand (Ankle) missing out, which gives Still a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
With only Dejan Lovren (Thigh) and Henrique Silva Milagres (Muscle) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Fabio Grosso will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
