Reims vs PSG

, KO: 20:00 Sep 21, 2024, Stade Auguste-Delaune
PSG

PSG are aiming to maintain their 100% record as they travel to Reims for a Ligue 1 fixture on Saturday. Reims have also looked decent this season but the Parisians appear to be playing at a higher level and should extend their fine record in this fixture.

It has been a fine start to the season for Reims, who are unbeaten in three of their four matches. Since suffering a 2-0 home defeat to Lille on the opening weekend, Luka Elsner’s men have gone on to claim two wins and a draw from the following three fixtures.

Reims head into Saturday’s clash off the back of a 2-1 victory over Nantes in their previous Ligue 1 fixture. They fought back from a goal down with efforts from Marshall Munetsi and Keito Nakamura earning them the win.

While Reims are looking solid by all indications, PSG appear to be playing a notch higher at the moment. Luis Enrique’s men are maintaining a 100%record across all competitions and are already two points clear at the top of the Ligue 1 standings.

The goals have flowed freely for PSG this season as they claimed a 3-1 victory last time out in Ligue 1. They followed that up with a 1-0 win over Spanish side Girona in a midweek Champions League clash.

How the bookies view it: Smooth sailing for PSG

PSG have been installed as overwhelming favourites among the bookies and are priced at 2/5 by Betfred to claim the win. Reims are considered outsiders, with a home win valued at 6/1 while Betfred is also offering odds of 4/1 for a draw.

Head to head: PSG on top

PSG have a 12-3 advantage with five draws from 20 previous matches against Reims. The Parisians are unbeaten in the last five matches at the Stade Auguste-Delaune, claiming four wins in that run, including a 3-0 victory in last season’s clash.

Players to watch: Barcola to show quality

Bradley Barcola had a quiet outing against Brest but remains the leading scorer for PSG with four goals so far. The forward will be the one to watch and is priced at 6/4 by Betfred to find the net on Saturday.

Reims have multiple attacking threats and have spread their goals across the team this season. However, Oumar Diakite often leads the line for the hosts and having scored against PSG last season, could be worth keeping an eye on at 18/5 by Betfred.

Probable line-ups

Reims will be without midfielder Amadou Kone, who is suspended for Saturday’s clash. Nakamura could be given a start in attack alongside Diakite after scoring off the bench last time out.

PSG have a few key injuries with Gianluigi Donnarumma, Lucas Hernandez, Presnel Kimpembe and Goncalo Ramos all sidelined. Randal Kolo Muani is likely to start after playing off the bench in the Champions League.

Reims: Diouf, Buta, Kipre, Agbadou, Sangui, Antangana Edoa, Munetsi, Teuma, Ito, Nakamura, Diakite
PSG: Safanov, Mendes, Skriniar, Marquinhos, Hakimi, Neves, Vitinha, Fabian Ruiz, Dembele, Barcola, Kolo Muani

Anything else catch the eye?

PSG scored in both halves on their last visit to the Stade Auguste-Delaune and could be set for a repeat at evens with Betfred. They also won both halves in that fixture and a similar pattern is priced at 11/5 with Betfred.

With the Parisians expected to be dominant on Saturday, a -1 handicap could be considered at 11/10 with Betfred.
