- 蒙彼利埃本赛季只赢了四场联赛，在过去的11场比赛中每场都输了
- 兰斯在正确的时间打得很好，在所有比赛的最后五场比赛中赢了四场
- 10月的逆转赛让兰斯在一场4比2的惊悚片中获胜
兰斯准备加重蒙彼利埃的痛苦
对于蒙彼利埃来说，这是一个痛苦的赛季，他们已经在法甲联赛中站稳脚跟好几个月了。考虑到La Paillade已经连续输掉了11场比赛，他们不可避免的降级命运应该最终在周日得到证实，说La Paillade's不战而败是一种轻描淡写。
不出所料，他们任命Jean-Louis Gasset的决定是一场灾难，此人在2024年成功的Afcon竞选活动中被科特迪瓦解雇，他的继任者Zoumana Camara的情况还没有好转。
卡马拉执教的两场比赛中，蒙彼利埃以7比1的总比分被击败，而La Pallade本赛季的第三位主教练对阵状态良好的兰斯的情况可能会更加相似。
东道主不可避免的命运终于被封印
周日的客队和东道主一样，也在法甲的保级混战中，但这就是相似之处的结束。兰斯距离降级还有5分，比蒙彼利埃好17分，他们在莫森球场应该不会遇到蒙彼利耶。
兰斯在过去的五场比赛中赢了四场，在那场比赛中赢得了法国杯决赛的席位，并在相反的比赛中以4比2击败了蒙彼利埃。
考虑到La Pallade在输掉最后五场主场比赛时已经丢了14个球，只进了一个球，令人惊讶的是，兰斯在这场比赛中的胜算只有一点点，他们应该轻松获胜。
- Montpellier have won just four league games this season, losing each of their last 11 matches
- Reims have hit form at the right time, winning four of their last five matches in all competitions
- October’s reverse fixture saw Reims prevail in a 4-2 thriller
Reims ready to add to Montpellier’s misery
It has been a season of misery for Montpellier, who have been rooted to the foot of the Ligue 1 table for months. To say La Paillade are going down without a fight would be an understatement given they have lost 11 consecutive matches and their inevitable fate of relegation should finally be confirmed on Sunday.
Unsurprisingly, their decision to appoint Jean-Louis Gasset, the man who was sacked by Ivory Coast in the middle of their triumphant Afcon campaign of 2024, was a disaster, and his successor, Zoumana Camara, is yet to fare any better.
Camara’s two matches in charge have seen Montpellier beaten by an aggregate score of 7-1 and it is likely to be more of the same for La Pallaide’s third manager of the season against in-form Reims.
Hosts inevitable fate to finally be sealed
Sunday’s visitors, like their hosts, are also in Ligue 1’s relegation dogfight, but that is where the similarities end. Reims are five points clear of the drop and 17 better off than Montpellier, who they should have no issues against at Stade de la Mosson.
Reims have won four of their last five matches, booking their place in the Coupe de France final in that run, and crushed Montpellier 4-2 in the reverse fixture.
Given La Pallaide have conceded 14 goals and scored just one while losing their last five home matches, it is a surprise to see Reims are only a shade of odds-on for this clash, which they should win with ease.
