Strasbourg vs Reims Match Analysis & Prediction
08/12/2024 7:00 pm
Strasbourg could slip into the relegation spots this weekend if they lose to a ninth-placed Reims side four places above them in the Ligue 1 table heading into Sunday’s gameweek 14 encounter at Stade de la Meinau.
While wins were few and far between at the start of the season, as evidenced by Strasbourg securing two victories from their opening seven matches, Le Racing were beaten once in that period.
However, five of the subsequent matches have ended in defeat for Liam Rosenior’s side, leaving them in 13th on 13 points, a point clear of Le Havre in the relegation playoff spot and two above 17th-placed Nantes.
Although Strasbourg have been hard to beat on home ground, the previous game as hosts ended in a 3-1 defeat to Monaco, and they aim to avoid back-to-back losses at Stade de la Meinau for the first time since February.
Having won six of nine matches in their backyard (one loss) before the November 9 defeat, Rosenior hopes it was nothing but a blip for a side keen to return to winning ways.
Meanwhile, Reims have picked up 10 of 18 points on their travels, most recently overcoming relegation-threatened Le Havre (3-0) on Luka Elsner’s return to his old club after defeats at Auxerre (2-1) and Toulouse (1-0).
Reims have avoided defeat in four of six away matches, collecting maximum points in 50% of games on their travels, undoubtedly superior to two wins in seven in Reims – a 28.6 win percentage at their ground.
With two points separating Reims from entering the league’s top six, success for the ninth-placed club and results elsewhere going in their favour – Nice dropping points to Le Havre and Lens slipping up against wretched bottom side Montpellier – could see Elsner’s side end the round in the Conference League qualification spot.
