Humiliated once again on home turf by OM in the Coupe de France, 0-4, ASSE will have to find new assets to avoid sinking into Ligue 1 from the start of 2025. Particularly against Stade de Reims .
The appointment is already scheduled. And it should not, it is obvious, be missed by the ASSE players at the very beginning of 2025. It will be in the cauldron of Geoffroy-Guichard, and without the kops, against the Stade de Reims on January 4 at 5 p.m. The opponent, given the latest results of the two teams, does not seem within the reach of ASSE, but Eirik Horneland, the new coach, and his players, have no other alternative than to take points under penalty to slide into the bottom of the ranking, they who are already in a barrier position.
Possible suspensions
We know that for this crucial meeting, the Norwegian technician will have to warn three of his elements not to take a yellow card that Saturday. Because as the site poteauxcarrés reminds us, if Mouton, Bouchouari, injured against OM, and Stassin take a warning against the Champenois, it will be an automatic suspension for the next meeting at Geoffroy-Guichard, and just as important, against FC Nantes.
ASSE-Reims is therefore a crucial match for the Greens.
