Nice vs Reims Preview, prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds | Ligue 1 2024-25

The hosts dominated the proceedings last time around.

Nice are all set to host Stade de Reims in the match week 32 of the Ligue 1 2024-25 season at the Allianz Riviera.

Nice are placed sixth in the Ligue 1 table at the moment. They are aiming to secure a UEFA Champions League spot for the next season. The hosts still have a chance to achieve that goal, but it can only happen if they come up with some consistent performances. They are coming in after securing a win over in-form PSG in their last league game.

The away side are in the 13th place in the French League table. Their lacklustre performances this season have kept them out of the top 10 this whole season. Reims were held to a goalless draw in their last Ligue 1 game against Montpellier and they will be ready for a tough contest against Nice.

The young Frenchman will be in action for Nice once again. Evann Guessand has performed well for his side this season. Although he has not scored any goals in the last five games for Nice, he has 19 goal involvements in 31 Ligue 1 games this season. Guessand is going to be a menace to the opponent’s defence.
