PSG will look to stay atop the league this weekend.

Reims vs PSG Prediction and Betting Tips | October 8, 2022

Reims will welcome reigning champions Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) to the Stade Auguste-Delaune II in Ligue 1 on Saturday (October 8).

The hosts have endured a slow start to their league campaign, winning just once in their last five games. They're coming off a 2-2 draw against Troyes, where they twice squandered the lead, including a 90th-minute equaliser.

Goalscorer Junya Ito was sent off in the 56th minute, which eventually proved to be their undoing. They have seven points from nine games and are in 17th place in the standings.

PSG, meanwhile, have won their last five league games, including a 2-1 win over Nice at home last time around. They saw their seven-game winning streak come to an end on Wednesday in a 1-1 draw against Benfica in the UEFA Champions League.

After this game, PSG will face Benfica again in the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday (October 11), so they might rotate their squad here. Nonetheless, they have enough firepower to eke out a win.
