Monaco to grab the points away at Reims

Stade Reims vs AS Monaco - 09/05/2021

3480

Reims were held to yet another draw in the French top flight on the weekend when they drew 2-2 away from home at Nimes and the hosts still remain in mid-table thanks to suffering just one defeat out of their last 11 matches overall in Ligue 1.

During this stubborn sequence of results, Reims have managed to pick up wins against Nantes and Dijon, both of which were away from home, while also picking up points along the way with no fewer than eight stalemates in these last 11 matches.

The draw has obviously been a prevalent result in Reims’s matches in recent times in Ligue 1 which has contributed to their mid-table position of 11th place in the French top flight while a home record of 4 wins, 8 draws and 5 defeats suggest the hosts may struggle to find a way to win when Monaco come to visit their Stade Auguste-Delaune II on Sunday afternoon.

Six draws out of their last seven matches at home further underline Reims’s problems fo winning matches at home this season.

Monaco’s impressive five-match winning streak came to an end last time out in the French top flight following a 3-2 loss at home to Lyon but the visitors will fancy their chances of bouncing back with a win against a draw-heavy Reims outfit on Sunday.

Recent victories against Saint-Etienne, Metz, Dijon, Bordeaux and Angers have helped the visitors up into 3rd place but with just four points separating Monaco from 2nd placed PSG, the away side have plenty left to play for.

Results away from home have also been impressive for Monaco as the visitors have racked up nine wins from their last 10 matches on their travels, keeping five clean sheets and scoring a total of 25 goals and conceding a total of just 9 in reply.

In addition, Monaco have scored 2 goals or more in seven of these last 10 away matches thus underlining their goalscoring threat and the visitors could well outscore their hosts on Sunday as they look to push home their claims for a Champions League spot.

Monaco have lost just one of the previous 11 meetings against Reims and look favourites for the three points here on Sunday afternoon.
