Bookmaker Ratings prediction one – Home win – 2.30
Bookmaker Ratings prediction two – Total Goals under 2.5 – 1.64
Lorient are in good form when playing at home as they have not lost in their last three fixtures, winning two and drawing one. Meanwhile, the visitors have scored just 1 goal in their last 3 away fixtures.
Another positive thing for the hosts is that they have won their last 3 home matches against Reims in all competitions.
If we take a look at Lorient’s stats, it is obvious that they are a good defensive team when they play at home. To illustrate, Les Merlus have seen under 2.5 goals in 5 of their previous 6 home fixtures against Reims in all competitions.
In addition, we have to note that Reims have failed to score in 5 of their last 7 away league matches.
Lorient are under pressure to remain clear of the danger zone.
Les Merlus suffered a 5-0 defeat in the hands of 10-man Rennes last weekend, putting them in 15th place on 34 points. Christophe Pélissier’s team are just three points away from the relegation zone with four matches to play.
However, playing at home this season, Lorient have a better record than playing away. In detail, Les Merlus have won six, drew five, and lost five of their 17 home games. Moreover, they have a positive goals difference, scored 18, and conceded 16 goals at home fixtures.
