PAU – Reims

Pau host a daunting test as they head into the fixture against second‑placed Reims, who sit on 12 points after three wins and three draws and boast a +6 goal difference. Pau, languishing in 16th place with just five points from six games, have managed only one victory and will be desperate to turn their four‑goal deficit around. Reims arrive unbeaten and will look to extend their flawless run, while Pau will need to tighten up at the back, having conceded six goals already. The clash offers Pau a chance to climb out of the relegation zone, but the gap in points and form makes it a steep uphill battle.
