Team News

Reims
  • Alexis Peuget has a thigh injury, while Odair Fortes is not yet fit enough to return to action.
  • Defender Mohamed Fofana is out with a hamstring problem.
  • Pape Souare is suspended after being sent-off at Rennes.
  • Gaetan Courtet is still unavailable because of a ligament injury, so manager Hubert Fournier will have to choose between Julien Toudic, Nicolas Fauvergue and Kamel Ghilas to spearhead the attack.
Evian Thonon Gaillard
  • Jonathan Mensah is out due to a thigh injury.
  • Cedric Barbosa also misses out with a hamstring problem. while Ali M'Madi is not yet fit enough to return.
  • Top scorer Saber Khelifa remains on the sidelines and Yannick Sagbo will be expected to continue in his stead.

Prediction

  • Reims and Evian meet at the Stade Auguste Delaune hoping to rebound following disappointing defeats.
  • Hubert Fournier's men slipped to a 1-0 defeat at Rennes, while Evian followed up their loss against Lille with a 2-1 defeat at Sochaux.
  • A lack of goals may well underline this contest. Both sides are missing their top scorers in Gaetan Courtet and Saber Khelifa, and the end result will likely come down to who can compensate best for their absences.
  • Reims have lost just once at home this term, and they will be expected to dominate once more. Look for creative presences Antoine Devaux and Diego to control the game, and if they can cut through a leaky Evian defence, then the home side should be able to earn a valuable three points.
