Reims vs Monaco Prediction & Betting Tips - Ligue 1

Prediction published on 05/10/2023, 16:00  by Daniel Ngulu in Ligue 1 Predictions

Reims will welcome Monaco in a mouthwatering French Ligue 1 clash on Saturday. The two teams are separated by one point at the top of the standings with Monaco first and Reims third. Reims have won their last two matches. They defeated Lyon 2-0 last weekend to register their fourth win of the season. This has been the perfect response to their 2-1 defeat at home to Brest. They will now hope to show their title credentials and not lose to another title hopeful. Will Still’s men have recorded two of their victories this season at home but still remain inconsistent in front of their fans. Les Rouges et Blancs haven’t won in three of their last five home fixtures in the league and have lost twice.

Monaco are coming off a 3-2 victory at home against Marseille that ended a two-match run without a win. Adolf Hutter’s men haven’t lost in their last four visits to the Stade Auguste Delaune and have won twice. This should have them confident of winning and maintaining their lead atop the standings. To boost them further is the success they have had when away this season. Le Rocher haven’t lost an away match and have won one of their three games. With second-placed Brest not playing until Sunday, a win here could see Monaco move three points clear for at least 24 hours.
