Angers vs Reims Head-to-Head and Key Numbers

• The last time these sides faced off was in the 2022-23 season, when Angers - who were relegated that campaign - secured a 2-2 draw at the Stade de Reims. However, Angers have not beaten this weekend's opponents since December 2021.
• Despite being bottom of the table, Angers have seen an upturn in their form in the last two weeks. They were able to pick up their first two points of the season, although it is notable that they have still not won a game.
• After losing their opening game to Lille, Reims have not fallen to another defeat. They have won two and drawn two, but this record is even more impressive when you consider they have faced Marseille, Rennes, Nantes and Paris St. Germain, who are all in the top eight right now.
• Red cards have been the name of the game for these two sides when they've faced off recently. Six players have been dismissed across the last six meetings between Angers and Reims.
• Although seven sides have conceded more goals than Angers, who have let in nine thus far, Alexandre Dujeux's side are yet to keep a clean sheet this season.

Angers vs Reims Prediction

Reims should come into this game with plenty of confidence given their recent run, and it's fair to say that Angers will be the weakest opposition they've faced thus far into the season.

Angers have seen some slightly better performances in their past couple of games, but given their issues in front of goal and at the back, it's hard to see them coming away with a positive result here.

Expect a relatively low-scoring game, but we predict Reims will win.

Prediction: Angers 0-1 Reims
