Team News

Reims
Montpellier
  • Yunis Abdelhamid is back from suspension, but the hosts will miss Emmanuel Agbadou after he was sent off last weekend.
  • Thibault De Smet is also an option at left-back, having come off the bench against Lyon.
  • Reims deployed several youngsters off the bench against Lyon and could include some of them from the off here.
  • Despite having lost to Nice, it should be as you were for the visitors.
  • Khalil Fayad is a doubt after not featuring at the Mosson last weekend.
  • Théo Sainte-Luce was a surprise starter against Nice and could keep his place at left-back ahead of Issiaga Sylla.

Prediction

  • This should be an entertaining match as both these sides have become known for their gung-ho football in the season's second half and have little for which to play.
  • Montpellier's attacking prowess -- no team outside the top seven has scored more -- could give them the edge here.
