Tip and bets
Champion had a poor start of the season, which is unacceptable for a team of that stature. Reims suffered only one defeat, but once again became the leaders on a number of draws. In our opinion, Dogs have nowhere to retreat now. We are expecting an offensive performance from the hosts, which will help them to secure their second victory and to leave the bottom of Ligue 1.
Our prediction - Lille to win
Visitors will probably try to keep the 0:0 score, but champions will have their own opinion about it. Lille have a serious potential, but in this match we are not expecting many goals, because leader has a difficult schedule.
Our second bet is on total under 2.5 goals
