Dunkerque – Reims

Dunkerque host a formidable Reims side in what promises to be a decisive clash in the lower half of the table. Sitting 12th with eight points from two wins, two draws and three defeats, the home team have struggled to find consistency, managing just ten goals while conceding twelve. Reims, perched in third place, arrive on the back of an unbeaten run – three victories and four draws from seven games – and a superior goal difference of +6, having scored fifteen and let in nine. The gap in points and form suggests Reims will be the favorites, yet Dunkerque will be eager to close the gap and claw back into the safety zone.
