Stade de Reims

After their 2-0 defeat against Auxerre, Reims, currently facing a tough spell under interim coach Samba Diawara, are expected to make changes in an effort to shift the team's momentum.
However, injury concerns persist, with Amadou Koné, Yaya Fofana, Reda Khadra, Mohamed Daramy, and Jordan Siebatcheu still sidelined. The team will need to adjust quickly to these absences as they strive to regain stability.
