Game of the week: Stade de Reims v Paris Saint-Germain, Saturday 16:00 (UK)
PSG failed to beat Reims last season with Will Still’s side securing two draws against Les Parisiens. The Champagne side have started this season well and are well in contention for European football. PSG have had difficulty breaking down well-organised defences so far this season and they’ll have to do better against Reims if they have any chance of taking top spot. Nice can guarantee keeping top spot should they beat Montpellier on Friday night, but Youssouf Ndayishimiye’s absence provides an added complication for Francesco Farioli’s side. Marseille and Lens face off on Sunday night. Neither side has hit the heights of last season so far this campaign.
Raphaël’s full predictions:
Montpellier 0-1 Nice
Reims 1-3 PSG
Le Havre 1-2 Monaco
Clermont 2-1 Lorient
Lille 2-0 Toulouse
Metz 1-1 Nantes
Rennes 2-1 Lyon
Lens 2-2 Marseille
Brest 1-0 Strasbourg
