Reims - Bordeaux betting tips and odds

By pricing a home win at around 2.10, the bookies made it clear that Reims are the favourites. Overall, though, the difference between the teams is not big, and the match can end either way.

It would be a minor miracle for Bordeaux to win at Reims, and they’re likely aware of that. Though risky, such an outcome could bring solid profits thanks to the 3.70 price on most online sportsbooks.

Reims’s painful defeat in their previous away match could have been seen from a mile away. They were facing Paris Saint Germain as visitors, so betting predictions never gave them much of a shot. The home team took an early lead which culminated in a 4:0 loss for Reims.

Bordeaux played much better than they were expected to in their previous away game. Top online bookmakers priced a home win against Strasbourg at 4.33, but they took an early lead and turned it into a 4:3 win.

It’s easy to spot a certain trend when looking over Bordeaux’s recent history – and not in a good way. Their latest appearances were marked by a high concession rate. For example, their previous 3 matches featured more than 5 conceded goals.

Placed at 17th in the standings, Bordeaux could stand to put some more distance between them and the relegation zone. With a good chunk of the season still ahead of them, there’s more than enough time left to climb the table. That said, the odds are against them in this matchup, so even a single point would be more than welcome.

Although the 2.10 betting odds for a home win show that Reims are the favourites, their track record against Bordeaux this season is not great. They lost an earlier bout, though it was a rather narrow defeat.

Fortunately, both teams will be able to give their all this Sunday. Neither squad has been affected by injuries or suspensions, allowing the coaches to work with all the tools at their disposal.

An Under 2.5 Goals bet combines the best of both worlds: it’s a fairly safe bet with a high probability of success, but it also offers decent betting value. You can place it on the Betsson priced at 1.80 odds.
