Head-to-head statistics Reims - Sochaux

Stade Reims Team Overview
Stade Reims played out a 1-1 draw against Boulogne in their most recent Ligue 2 fixture, coming from behind after the first half. Despite enjoying 65% possession, the visitors were outshot 7-13 and trailed in expected goals, 0.37 to 1.10.
At home, Stade Reims have made a habit of turning around slow starts. Nicolas Usaï’s side have conceded first in six consecutive home fixtures, yet haven’t lost any of them. A recent example came against Dijon: the visitors struck first, but Reims rallied to claim a 4-2 victory. Their attacking firepower has been key to these comebacks-Reims have scored 20 goals so far, a tally bettered only by league leaders Saint-Étienne in Ligue 2. Reims’ most recent point was also earned from behind. Away at Boulogne, they fell behind before the break, but Yaya Fofana equalised late on. That was already the midfielder’s seventh goal of the current campaign.
Match Results: Stade Reims

Sochaux Team Overview
Sochaux fell 1-3 to Annecy in their most recent Ligue 2 fixture. Despite registering more shots on goal-18 to 14-and earning twice as many corners, Sochaux trailed significantly in expected goals, posting a 1.11 xG compared to Annecy’s 2.41.
The main issue for Sochaux is their attack. Vincent Hognon's side have found the net just eight times in ten matches-only Boulogne have scored fewer in Ligue 2. Even a rare productive night up front doesn't guarantee points: Sochaux scored twice in Metz, yet still came away empty-handed. Six days later, they suffered a second straight defeat, this time at home to Annecy (1-3). That night also cost Sochaux a defender: after a collision with an opponent, Arthur Vitelli did not return for the second half. According to the club, he will need several days of rest, though no exact timeline has been given. With 11 points, Sochaux currently sit 13th in the table.

Total Goals Prediction
Only one of Sochaux’s last eight away games has seen more than three goals. The visitors have struggled to find the net on the road, scoring just four times in five away fixtures this season. The risk, however, comes from Stade Reims’ attacking approach at home: they have scored 13 and conceded nine in five matches on their own turf. Still, we expect this game to stay under three goals. Our pick is under 3.5 total goals.
Corners Prediction
Stade Reims don't rack up many corners: they've hit six or more just once in their last 13 league outings. At home, corner kicks are even scarcer-both teams have combined for ten or more corners only once in the past seven matches at this ground. We don't expect the hosts to reach six corners here. The pick: Stade Reims under 5.5 corners (individual total).
Correct Score Prediction
According to the algorithm's projections, the top three most likely scorelines are 1-1 (11.07%), 1-0 (9.73%), and 2-1 (9.66%). Of these, a 1-1 draw emerges as the most probable outcome.
⭐ Editorial Prediction
Stade Reims are unbeaten in 17 consecutive Ligue 2 matches, but their defense has been shaky, conceding in 8 of their last 9 games. Sochaux, meanwhile, have gone eight away matches without a win, yet they rarely leave empty-handed-Onyion’s side have picked up points in four out of five road games this season. We expect Stade Reims to concede again and find a way back into the match, but that’s likely as far as it goes for the hosts. The pick: Sochaux double chance.
