Team News

Reims
Saint-Etienne
  • None of Junya Ito, Yaya Fofana, Reda Khadra and Mohamed Daramy return here with the quartet absent due to injury.
  • Mamdou Diakhon could start in place of Ange Tia on the right flank.
  • That may be the home side's only change from the XI that started the 1-0 loss at Nice.
  • Lucas Stassin joins Augustine Boakye and Benjamin Bouchouari on the sidelines for Saint-Etienne.
  • Djylian N'Guessan is expected to continue on the frontline in the absence of Stassin.

Prediction

  • Reims are still not safe ahead of the penultimate round of games this season and sit just two points above Le Havre, who occupy the relegation playoff spot. That said, they are six points clear of Saint-Etienne in 17th.
  • ASSE need to win here in order to give themselves a chance of beating the drop. They boast the second worst away record in the division, which doesn't bode well for Les Verts.
  • Reims have won two of their last three at home, the blip on the record a narrow 1-0 defeat to Strasbourg, and they may just send Saint-Etienne down on Saturday.
