Recent Form & Head-to-Head
Monaco will be eager to avenge their 3-1 defeat to Reims in their last meeting on January 13, 2024. However, history suggests Monaco is strong at home, and Reims will struggle to replicate that result.

Both teams have pulled off surprises against PSG in recent years—Monaco secured a 1-1 draw in 2022 at 11.0 odds, while Reims shocked the Parisians with a 1-1 draw in January 2025 at 13.0 odds. However, facing Monaco away is a different challenge altogether.

Final Thoughts
With Monaco’s €403.70m squad value dwarfing Reims’ €116.40m, the quality gap is evident. While Ligue 1 has seen home teams win 40.9% of matches, this one looks set to boost that percentage.

A Monaco win at 1.37 odds is the safest bet, and if you’re feeling adventurous, backing over 2.5 goals could add extra value. Expect a dominant display from the hosts as they cruise to victory.
