Reims boss Will Still will need to instil positive feelings within his team after they endured a 4-1 away mauling from Clermont Foot.  They achieved 50% possession in that match and had 10 strikes at goal, with 3 hitting the target, up against Clermont Foot's tally of 12 efforts at goal, 6 of which were on target.  

It seems pretty certain that Still will be quite pleased with his squad's ability to score goals in recent matches, having managed 6 goals in their past 6 outings. In contrast, however, he will be concerned that their defensive qualities look a little more fragile, with 11 goals conceded in those matches and some crucial points dropped.  They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but they have only kept 1 clean sheet in their last 6 games at Stade Auguste-Delaune.  

With 3 defeats and just 1 win from their last 6 home league games at Stade Auguste-Delaune, it's clear they are not having a good run of home form at the moment.

Having taken all 3 points, with a crucial 2-1 home win over Lens in their last league game, Marseille will undoubtedly be very satisfied with their work.  In that game they recorded 43 % of the possession, with 13 attempts on goal, 6 on target. Their opponents found the target on 5 of their 18 shots on goal.  

Supremo Jean-Louis Gasset will be closely scrutinising his squad's defensive frailties, his back line having shipped 12 goals in their last 6 matches, despite having picked up some points through the 7 goals they've managed to net.  Playing away from home, they've conceded a goal in each of their last 19 games.  

They've had a bad run of form away from home recently, having lost 4 of their last 6 on the road and managing just 1 win.  

Goalscorer Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 3 goals in his last 6 league matches for Marseille.
