Monaco vs Reims Preview and Team News

Monaco Team News

The pressure will be on the hosts this week, as they’ve dropped to fifth in the Ligue 1 standings after losing two of their latest three matches. Defensive concerns are bound to be a query as Monaco have conceded a staggering seven goals across their last three games.

However, these concerns are nothing new for the home side. They have allowed 23 goals from an open play xGA of 21.42 so far. A creative spark has been evident throughout the term, but it would be a slight concern that they’ve only netted 34 times despite having an xG of 43.81.

Monaco will be without key attackers Aleksandr Golovin and Myron Boadu this weekend. Defenders Jordan Teze and Soungoutou Magassa are also expected to miss Friday’s fixture.

Monaco predicted lineup vs Reims (4-2-3-1): Majecki; Vanderson, Singo, Mawissa, Diatta; Camara, Zakaria; Akliouche, Minamino, Ben Seghir; Embolo. 

Reims Team News

Relegation worries will be increasing at Reims at this stage of the season. They’ve suffered defeats in each of their last four Ligue 1 matches and have failed to score in their latest three. That run of form leaves them just three points clear of the drop zone.

Converting chances has been a major negative throughout the term. They scored 20 goals from an xG of 24.67 in open play and netted just five corners from 5.07. However, they are at least outperforming their xGA of 34.70 after allowing 25 goals from regulation play.

Cedric Kipre will be back in contention to start after serving his ban. Yaya Fofana and Mohamed Darmy could both be fit enough for a place on the bench after recovering from injuries. However, Abdoul Kone and Reda Khadra remain out. 

Reims predicted lineup vs Monaco (4-2-3-1): Diouf; Sekine, Okumu, Kipre, Sangui; Gbane, Kone; Ito, Teuma, Nakamura; Diakite.

Monaco vs Reims Prediction

• Pick: Monaco to win
• Odds: 1.40 (22Bet)
• Score prediction: Monaco 3-1 Reims

This weekend against Reims looks like Monaco’s golden opportunity to get back on track for Monaco. The visitors have offered little at both ends of the field in their previous four encounters. 

It could also be worth noting that the guests will have limited preparation time after playing in the French Cup on Wednesday. 

It may be wise to overlook the head-to-head trends, as there hasn’t been a home win in the last 12 meetings. 

Monaco vs Reims Prediction, Betting Tip

• Pick: Both Teams to Score
• Odds: 1.62 (22Bet)

Both teams to score could be one of the more interesting selections when making a Monaco vs Reims prediction. 

The hosts have allowed an average xGA of 1.27 this season and have conceded around 1.25 goals per home game. Meanwhile, they’ve only kept clean sheets in 25% of their fixtures. 

Reims have posted a decent 1.19 on the road in Ligue 1 and have scored an average of 1.18 goals per match. 

Takumi Minamino has been at the heart of everything positive in the final third. The Japanese star has registered six goal involvements in 20 league appearances this season. He looks like a standout selection to improve his tally of three goals from an xG of 6.63 this weekend.
