Olympique Marseille will look to take a step closer to securing their Champions League hopes when they take on an in-form Reims side in Ligue 1 this Sunday at Stade Auguste-Delaune. The visitors are currently in second place in the league with 56 points in 27 matches, 10 points behind league leaders PSG, and two ahead of Lens in third. Marseille played out a disappointing 2-2 draw in their last match against Strasbourg, which was their only draw in their last six matches, along with three wins and two losses. However, with 10 wins, two draws, and just one loss on the road, Marseille boasts a fine away record in league away matches this campaign and is unbeaten in their last eight away matches, including seven wins and one draw. 

Reims come into this match in very good form, and after winning their last match 1-0 against Monaco, the hosts extended their unbeaten run in the league to an incredible 19 matches, including 9 wins and 10 draws. They are now in eighth place in Ligue 1 with 43 points in 27 matches, four points behind Rennes in the final Europa League qualification spot but level with Nice and Lorient in seventh and ninth, respectively. At home this season, Reims has recorded seven wins, four draws, and two losses in 13 matches and come into this match unbeaten in their last nine. Reims has been unable to beat this opposition in their last five attempts losing three and drawing two, but they will feel that they are in good enough form to bring an end to that winless run in this one.
