Saint-Etienne will host Stade Reims at the Stade Geoffroy Guichard on Saturday in another round of the 2024-25 Ligue 1 campaign. The hosts will be desperate to return to winning ways after failing to pick up a point in their last three games.
Les Verts ended the year in terrible fashion, losing four of their final five league fixtures, most recently a 2-1 loss to Toulouse before the winter break. The hosts, who have only picked up 13 points in 15 matches all season, currently sit in 16th place and will be looking to get a point to turn around their otherwise poor season.
Reims picked up consecutive goalless draws in their last two league matches against Monaco and Strasbourg respectively. Luka Elsnar’s men lost only one of the opening seven league matches but have since picked up just a win in the next eight.
Trending
The visitors currently sit in 10th position and will be keen to pick up points to push towards the European qualification spots.
