Nantes vs Reims Prediction & Tips
Nantes and Reims meet at the Stade de la Beaujoire – Louis Fonteneau, in a match on matchday 11 of Ligue 1. At this stadium, the head-to-head record indicates balance between these two teams, as there have been 2 wins for each team in the last 4 games. However, the last time they met at this stadium was on 02-04-2023, in a Ligue 1 match that ended with Reims winning 0-3. The goals were scored by Alexis Flips (39′ and 38′ ) and Marshall Munetsi (58′ ) for Reims. The home factor could play an important role in this match, as Nantes have significant differences in their home and away results.
After 4 wins, 2 draws and 4 defeats, the home side are in 7th place with 14 points. In their last match, they lost 4-0 away to Lens, having won 2-0 at home to Montpellier in their previous match. This is a team affected by the home factor, stronger when they play in front of their home fans, as in the last 30 matches they have recorded 2 wins, 3 draws and 10 defeats as visitors, with 12 goals scored and 30 conceded, compared to 5 wins, 4 draws and 6 defeats at home, with 20 goals scored and 29 conceded. In the league, Nantes have taken 8 points out of a possible 15, after 2 wins, 2 draws and 1 defeat in their last 5 games at home.
In this competition, they haven’t lost any of their last 4 games at home. The team has conceded goals to its opponents in 8 of its last 10 games, so it hasn’t been very solid defensively, but its attack has scored regularly, as it has managed to score in 8 of its last 10 games in this competition. In 10 games in this competition, they’ve only managed to turn the game around once in the 5 games in which they’ve conceded the first goal.
Nantes go into this match on the back of a 4-0 defeat at Lens, putting an end to their two straight wins in Ligue 1. The home side usually play in a 3-4-3 tactical system, giving more importance to a style of play of constant transitions. It should be noted that, in this design, the three men who will play the most attacking roles are likely to be Mostafa Mohamed, Moses Simon and Florent Mollet, the former being the team’s top scorer with 5 goals to his name. Douglas Augusto and Fabien Centonze are out of this game, both with physical problems.
After 5 wins, 2 draws and 3 defeats, the away team are in 5th place with 17 points. In their last match, they beat Lorient at home 1-0, having drawn 1-1 away to Toulouse in their previous match. This is a team that maintains its performance when playing away from home, as in the last 30 games it has recorded 6 wins, 3 draws and 6 defeats as a visitor; against 7 wins, 2 draws and 6 defeats at home. In their last 5 away games in the league, Reims have won 2, drawn 2 and lost 1, taking 8 points out of a possible 15.
In this competition, they haven’t lost any of their last 4 away games. Their defensive solidity has not been their strong point, as they have conceded goals in 7 of their last 10 games, but their attack has scored regularly, as they have scored at least one goal in each of their last 10 games in this competition. This is a team that often scores first: they’ve opened the scoring in 8 of their last 10 Ligue 1 games, of those 8 they’ve gone into half-time ahead in 5 and managed to keep the lead until the end of the 90′ in 5.
Stade Reims come into this match on the back of a 1-0 win at Lorient, making it their second game in a row without losing in this competition: Josh Wilson-Esbrand scored the team’s only goal.

It should be noted that in this formation, the two players who will occupy the most attacking part of the pitch are Junya Ito and Mohamed Daramy. Central midfielder Teddy Teuma is the team’s top scorer with 4 goals to his name. All the players are available for this match.
