Strasbourg vs Reims

Strasbourg and Reims face off in the Coupe de France, with the home side looking to capitalize on their recent momentum. Strasbourg is currently undefeated in their last three matches and pulled off a stunning 3-1 win over Monaco in the previous round. Their matches are rarely boring, with eight of their last nine producing over 2.5 goals. However, a lack of clean sheets (none in their last eight) remains a glaring issue for Patrick Vieira’s side.

Reims comes into this as a side that is hard to beat but struggles to win. They have recorded four consecutive 0-0 draws since their previous cup victory. This “Stalemate King” reputation makes them a dangerous opponent in a knockout format where they could look to take the game to penalties. Strasbourg has the upper hand in recent H2H meetings and is given a 64% win probability. For Reims to progress, they must find a way to break their goal-scoring drought against a Strasbourg defense that is prone to errors.
