Sunday sees Nice face off with Reims at the Allianz Riviera on the opening weekend of the 2021-22 Ligue 1 campaign.Nice will be hoping to improve on last season’s ninth place finish, while Reims will be looking to climb higher than last term after finishing in 14th.But with both sides seeing managerial changes during the summer of 2021, this feels like a game in which anything could happen.Nice vs Reims Head-to-HeadNice’s 2020-21 campaign was an up-and-down one. After a sticky patch saw them drop all the way to 16th in February, they lost just three of their final 12 matches to climb back up to a respectable ninth-place finish.However, the summer brought a big managerial change. Adrian Ursea left the club and has been replaced by Christophe Galtier – the man who took Lille to the Ligue 1 title in 2020-21.Add in a number of summer transfers and Nice fans will be forgiven for being largely hopeful coming into this season.Meanwhile, Reims have also seen a managerial change after David Guion announced he would be leaving the club at the back end of the 2020-21 campaign.Oscar Garcia – formerly of Watford, RB Salzburg and Celta Vigo – is now in charge. He’ll be hoping to improve on Reims’ poor form, as they won just one of their final 10 games last season.This may prove tricky, though, as last season’s top scorer Boulaye Dia has now been sold to Spanish side Villarreal.Nice form guide (competitive games only): W-L-W-L-WReims form guide (competitive games only): L-D-L-L-LFrom behind the scenes of the kit reveal to Les Aiglons on the training pitch, via - of course - the moment Les Rouge et Noir were reunited with their fans against @ACMilan...
