Reims and Sochaux meet at Stade Auguste Delaune, Reims on Saturday, Oct 31 at 2:00 PM with both clubs firmly in the mix for the European places in the Ligue 2. Just 2 points separate them in the standings.

Reims come into this fixture in good form (3W 2D 0L recently). Sochaux travel drawing too many games (3D in last 5), which may hand the initiative to the hosts.

History strongly favours Reims here — they've won 5 of 10 previous meetings against Sochaux, with 3 draws. Their last encounter ended in Reims won 3–1. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 4.0 per game in recent meetings.

Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Reims a slight edge, but Sochaux are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
