Match analysis
Reims have scored fourteen goals in their last five matches, the best rate in this batch, yet Superior projects only a 1-0 win over Montpellier on 18 September, with 1-1 the alternate. Montpellier's own defense, three clean sheets in five games, is what keeps the home side's attack from being priced for a bigger margin.
The last three meetings produced two 0-0 draws
That history sits awkwardly next to Reims' own form, which has produced 14 goals in five matches this season, the best scoring rate in this batch of fixtures. Montpellier's counter is defensive rather than attacking: three clean sheets in their last five games and only three goals conceded in total, including back-to-back 1-0 wins on the road. Superior's 1-0 projection threads that gap, backing Reims to break through but only once against a defense that has made a habit of shutting teams out.
Montpellier's defense has made a habit of shutting teams out
If that defensive record holds again, Reims' attack does not get the one goal the projection needs, and this slides toward the two scoreless draws that make up the recent head-to-head. Reims have also failed to keep a clean sheet themselves in any of their last five, conceding at least once in every game, so a repeat of Montpellier's rare away goal, they have managed just four in five matches, is enough to push this to Superior's own 1-1 alternate instead.
