There will be high-quality action taking place in France this weekend, as Nice will be chasing maximum points to enhance their chances of finishing in a Champions League spot. Reims will have the home field advantage, as they look to stretch their unbeaten run to four matches.
Nice will be back in the spotlight this weekend, as they look to enhance their chances of finishing in a Champions League position. The French club currently sits fifth in the standings, but they will need to overcome a poor recent run of form after suffering defeats in three of their last four matches. Despite that losing sequence, Nice remain just six points off the Champions League spots at this stage.
However, a return to form will be required this week after suffering an eighth defeat of the campaign in the previous round of matches. That loss was suffered at home against Nantes, and it means that they could come under pressure for the final European qualifying spot over the final month of the campaign.
Reims are one of the teams looking to make ground on the sides in the European positions at this stage of the season. The French side comes into this round sitting ninth, but they have been largely consistent throughout the campaign after winning eleven of their 27 matches. They also come into this round in steady form after going three without a defeat.
Reims were unable to record back-to-back victories in their previous outing, as they could only play out a 1-1 draw on the road against Lyon. But, the performance was better than the result suggested, and it’s likely that their confidence will remain high ahead of this fixture on Sunday.
Nice have a stunning record in this fixture after avoiding defeat in each of the last ten league matches between the sides. However, it could be worth mentioning that they have recorded just three wins over that period. Draws have been the most common outcome, with six of the last eight ending level.
This should be an interesting clash in Ligue 1 this weekend, and cases can be made for both outcomes. However, the trends of draws when these sides collide can’t be overlooked, meaning that the preference is for the points to be shared on Sunday.
