Reims
- Reims have won one, drawn three and lost one of their last five matches.
- Karel Geraerts has turned Reims into a high-tempo, possession-based team since taking over in July 2025 and is arguably the best coach in the division at implementing his ambitious game model.
Red Star (away)
- Red Star have won three of their last five games, with one defeat.
- Gregory Poirier has turned Red Star into a well-organised and defensively solid unit since taking charge in July 2024, allowing them to challenge for promotion this season.
- Red Star have won 8 of 15 away Ligue 2 matches this term, losing five and drawing two.
- Poirier’s side favour a disciplined, mid-block approach with the team defending in a compact shape and looking to counter on the break.
Head-to-Head
The last head-to-head meeting in Ligue 2 finished 0-0 and Red Star should be well set to get something from this clash, although the odds for an away win are quite high at 4.0 .
Key Players
- Mohamed Daramy has scored two of Reims’ last six goals, so both forwards should be closely marked by defenders on Saturday.
- Damien Durand is a clinical finisher for Red Star and the visitors have averaged 1.40 goals per game on the road in Ligue 2.
Betting Insights
The better plays are under 2.5 goals at 1.8 and Both Teams Not to Score at 1.85 as this looks set to be a cagey, tactical matchup.
Prediction
Red Star 93 Saint Ouen have been in better form than their opponents in the past month or so and should edge a cagey clash at Stade de Reims on Saturday.
