Reims vs Strasbourg prediction
Reims are at home in the previous round, and should register a 1-0 win over Montpellier, to progress further. Meanwhile, Strasbourg was on his way to the Round of 16, and they win over Nantes to win 0-1.
Tuesday, hands up a little bit is to support Strasbourg. Reasons are manifold.
