Reims had an unsuccessful start not only in the French championship, but also in the Cup of the country, from where they were eliminated already at the first stage. Today’s hosts got as a rival the modest Valenciennes, who defeated the red-whites with a hockey score of 4:3. After this fiasco, David Guyon’s wards did not lose, while the series of successful matches is already nine fights in a row. To date, the six-time French champion has recorded nine wins and 14 draws, bringing 41 points and 11th place in the standings. After the victory over Dijon (1:0), the team from Grand Est gave three peaceful outcomes in a row with Renn (2:2), Nice (0:0) and Metz (0:0). The indicators of scored and conceded goals look attractive 38 to 38. Today Berisha, who has an injured knee, will not be able to enter the field.
In the last segment of the season “Toffee” noticeably got hooked. During the championship Carlo Ancelotti’s team cannot win five matches in a row. During this period, after two defeats in a row from Chelsea (0:2) and Burnley (1:2), Everton ended in a draw with Crystal Palace (1:1), Brighton (0:0) and Tottenham (2:2). Despite the loss of a number of important points, the Liverpool club remains among teams that claim a place in the European competition. Everton is now in eighth place in the league standings. Ancelotti’s team has 49 points. They are six points behind the fourth Chelsea, but have played one game less than all competitors who are higher. Note that on the fields of their rivals, Everton plays an order of magnitude better than at home. On the road the “toffee” scored more than 60% of their points in the current championship. Liverpool have lost only to Chelsea in 11 previous away league games, drew three times and won seven times. Everton also has a lot of personnel losses. Injured are midfielders Abdoulaye Ducourt, Bernard, Fabian Delph and Jean-Philippe Gbamen, defender Jerry Mina. Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Andre Gomes are in question. So, what is the soccer bet prediction for today?
