Reims vs Monaco Prediction: Reims are on a back-to-back run without a win, they have won one game in their last seven games, and failed to win in their last six home games. They could struggle here.
Monaco got their three-game winning streak snapped with a 1-0 home-defeat against Paris Saint-Germain, and will now look to win this game here. A gulf in class, quality and ability between the two teams will see Reims win this next Sunday.
