Boulogne host Reims in Ligue 2 in clearly contrasting form. The hosts won 2-0 in their latest match, but before that they collected just two points from four games, while Reims have just thrashed their opponents 4-2 and are still unbeaten in the league all season. Boulogne remain a team with a tight defence, conceding only 6 goals in 9 matches, but their attack is blunt, scoring the same 6, and they have around 46% possession per game in their last 10. Reims, meanwhile, create clearly more chances, hitting 6 shots on target per game from 9 matches, though they also allow 5 shots on target per game, so their defence is not as solid as the table suggests. The pattern of play should therefore see Reims with more of the ball, trying to break down the hosts' deep defence. If Boulogne score first, the game will become even more closed and turn into hard work for the visitors. But if Reims take the lead first, the hosts will have to open up, which is the situation the visitors are best at.
