Goal Statistics

Goals have been an issue for Montpellier of late. It has been 11 Ligue 1 games since they last scored more than 1, and a PG of 1.2 suggests they'll struggle to end that run on Sunday afternoon against Reims.

Reims's fans will be hoping for goals on Sunday afternoon, not least because Montpellier have conceded in each of their last 36 Ligue 1 games. A PG of 1.6 for K. Diawara's side suggests that run should continue.
