On Sunday afternoon, Reims hosts Lens at the Stade Auguste-Delaune II as the visitors look to continue their stellar start to the new Ligue One campaign.

Reims

The home team has endured an inconsistent start to the new league campaign in the French top-flight. However, a 4-2 win at Angers last time out was their first league win of the campaign and also made Reims three games unbeaten in the French top-flight.

The victory over Angers continued a high-scoring trend for Reims in the French top-flight, as seven of their last nine matches in Ligue One have produced over 2.5 goals. Both teams have also scored in their last nine Ligue One games.

Reims recent home record in the French top-flight is poor, as they have won just one of their last ten away matches in Ligue One. That run includes losing four of their last five home matches in the league.

Lens

The visitors have made a highly impressive start to the Ligue One campaign, winning four of their five league matches so far this season and remaining unbeaten.

The excellent start to the new league campaign will not come as a major shock to many, as Lens finished last season in solid form, and they are now 13 games unbeaten in the French top-flight.

The key to Lens' good start to the campaign has been their attacking prowess, as they have scored at least twice in four of their five league games this season.  Experienced striker Florian Sotoca has been in good form in the current campaign, scoring five goals in as many Ligue One appearances.
