Sunday sees a Ligue 1 clash between Nimes and Reims at the Stade des Costieres.Strugglers Nimes are currently in 19th place and will be desperate for a victory, while Reims have moved up to 11th following a decent run.Can Nimes pick up some valuable points in their fight for survival, or will Reims condemn them to more trouble?Nimes vs Reims Head-to-HeadAlthough they’ve only lost three of their last 11 Ligue 1 fixtures, Nimes remain in very real danger of relegation to Ligue 2.They are currently in 19th place, and are four points adrift of safety. What’s more, only bottom side Dijon have a worse goal difference.Nimes have not won a match since their shock win over Lille on 21 March. Since then, they’ve lost two and drawn two, most recently falling 2-1 to Lens.Meanwhile, Reims saw a lengthy unbeaten run snapped by Marseille last weekend as they were defeated 1-2.Prior to that, they hadn’t lost a game since 6 February, a run of nine fixtures.However, David Guion’s side have also picked up a lot of draws (14) in the current campaign, more than any other side. This is why they are only in mid-table at the moment.Surprisingly, the last time these sides faced off, Nimes ran out 0-1 victors. Reims have not beaten Nimes in any of their last six meetings.Nimes form guide: W-L-D-D-LReims form guide: W-D-D-D-L🗣 Plus que jamais, les Crocos ont besoin de votre soutien pour les dernières échéances.⤵ Envoyez leur directement vos messages d'encouragement pic.twitter.com/tImI8pa2tN— 🐊 Nîmes Olympique (@nimesolympique) April 28, 2021Nimes vs Reims Team NewsNimesFour Nimes players will miss out on this game due to injury, including Clement Depres, who has missed nearly the entire season.Injured: Andres Cubas, Anthony Briancon, Pablo Martinez, Clement DepresDoubtful: NoneSuspended: NoneReimsKey defender Wout Faes will miss out after his red card in last weekend’s loss to Marseille.

While Reims haven’t picked up enough wins to make a real impact, they definitely have the attacking talent to hurt a side with such a weak defense.Therefore, an away win is the prediction here.Prediction: Nimes 1-3 Reims
