Team News

Clermont Foot
Reims
  • With Neto Borges and Alidu Seidu still unavailable, don't expect many changes from the hosts.
  • This is doubly so after they recorded an impressive win away to Nice.
  • If Pascal Gastien does make any changes, it would likely be to bring Jérémie Bela in at right wing-back.
  • Reims are unlikely to make wholesale changes despite defeat to Strasbourg.
  • Maxime Busi was a surprise starter over Thibault De Smet last weekend, but expect the Belgian to return here.
  • Dion Lopy could also be an option in central midfield.

Prediction

  • Both of these teams have played over the odds this season, but have little to nothing at stake in this encounter, so expect an open an entertaining match.
  • Reims' individual quality in the form of Balogun and Ito could tell here, but an entertaining score draw seems more likely given Clermont's form. The Auvergne side are on four wins in a row.
