Reims vs Strasbourg Prediction & Betting tips
The first quarter-final round of the Coupe de la Ligue will take place on Tuesday evening between Stade Reims and cup holder RC Strasbourg. Which team can reach the semi-finals?
Stade Reims:
In the first competition of 2020, Stade Reims fell immediately last Saturday. On a visit to AS Monaco, the team of David Guion managed to come back from a 1-0 deficit in the 1 / 32nd finals of the Coupe de France, but Les Rouges et Blancs were eliminated due to a hit in injury time. Despite the first defeat in eight games, the current number six of the Ligue 1 is still the favorite for the game of Tuesday night, if only because the team of Guion is already unbeaten for eight consecutive home games.
The solidity of the defense of Stade Reims also contributes to the favorite role for the meeting with RC Strasbourg. In 2019, les Rouges and Blancs collected 34 goals, the least of all teams in the Ligue 1. For comparison: Paris Saint-Germain and Lille, the numbers one and two of the last season, both won 35 hits throughout 2019. In the In the first half of the current season, only ten hits were collected in the league, again the least of all teams in the Ligue 1.
RC Strasbourg:
In contrast to Stade Reims, RC Strasbourg is still unbeaten this calendar year. In the 1 / 32nd finals of the Coupe de France last Saturday, 4-1 was won by a visit to five-division team Stade Portelois, which means that Le Racing is currently still active in both French cup tournaments. Kevin Zohi, who this season in Ligue 1 has to do mainly with raidings, was the best player of his team with two hits and seems to have been injured again in the starting spot after the first half of the season.
Not only does Stade Reims know how to defend well, RC Strasbourg has also shown that it can play compactly last year. Throughout 2019, only 23 hits were collected in away games, fewer than, for example, PSG and Olympique Lyonnais. In the last four games, all of which were won, le Racing collected only two goals, so the vanguard of Stade Reims has already been warned. With twelve hits in the last five games, the team from Thierry Laurey is also doing well at the front, which means that the team from Strasbourg certainly does not stand a chance of reaching the semi-finals of the Coupe de la Ligue.
