Team News

Reims
Clermont Foot
  • Thibault De Smet and Cheick Keita are doubts through injury.
  • Emmanuel Agbadou is back from a suspension that dated to last season, but isn't a certainty to start.
  • Keito Nakamura could also be an option in attack.
  • Despite losing to Monaco, Clermont were impressive last weekend and are unlikely to make extensive changes.
  • Andy Pelmard should keep his place as Maximiliano Caufriez's fitness remains a doubt.

Prediction

  • Both of these sides performed well over expectations last season, and will be eager to keep that going here against opponents that will be on their level.
  • Reims have more work to do in the absence of Folarin Balogun, though, and may look to slow this match down against a Clermont side who rely on playing the counter-attack.
