Red Star were one step away from earning the place in top division last season. The team finished fifth in Ligue 2 with 64 points gained and only one point behind promoted Metz, who finished third. Red Star played only three sparrings during pre-season, drawing clashes with Anderlecht, 1-1, Lille, 0-0, and beating Metz, 1-0. Quite successful pre-season was followed by slow start when Red Star took only two points in three matches, drawing matches with Clermont and Auxerre, both 0-0, and unexpectedly losing to Brest, 0-3.
Reims and Red Star faced one another last time in 2001. Both teams have the same problems such as low scoring and the same advantages as solid defensive lines. Considering the above we should expect to see small number of chances created by both sides.
Prediction for the match: Under 2.5 goals.
