Stade Reims are yet to win a game in Ligue 1 this season and the search for a first win is set to get tougher, as they host PSG in Week 4 of the French topflight. PSG are top of the league standings with nine points and Reims are 12th on three points. Reims head to this game without a win in their last five matches, one clean sheet and having conceded two or more in three of the five. They’ve failed to score in just one of five matches but in Ligue 1 action, Reims have no win in the last 11. Last season they finished 14th, just two points above the relegation zone and as they eye a better season, any result other than a loss here would be a big shock. They’ve won just two of their last 19 league matches and at home, they have no win in 10 league games, losing three of them. Reims have conceded two or more goals in four of their last six league games at home. They’ve drawn each of their first three league games and going to this one, they have three straight losses against PSG, conceding nine in the process and scoring none.

PSG are the only side with a perfect run in Ligue 1 so far, and while they have three straight wins, they haven’t kept a clean sheet yet. They actually have no clean sheet in the last five matches across all competitions but have scored two or more in four of the last five, while failing to score in one. At this point of the season, they are the leading scorers with 10 goals in three matches and they are set to get even better. New signings Lionel Messi and Sergio Ramos, who haven’t featured this season, are fit enough for the game while Neymar is also available for selection. These three will boost the team both in defence and attack and Reims are set for a really tough outing. PSG are unbeaten in their last 10 league matches, with nine wins therein and have scored two or more goals in nine of the 10, though keeping just two clean sheets. Apart from the few clean sheets, the only other worry for PSG will be Kylian Mbappe’s future, with Real Madrid said to have made a firm offer for his signature.
