Reims - Annecy FC
Reims look for first win against high-flying Annecy FC
Monday evening at Stade Auguste Delaune, Reims host Annecy FC for matchday 3 of the Ligue 2 season. While the hosts are still searching for their first victory of the campaign, the visitors arrive in excellent form having secured back-to-back wins to start their schedule. The two sides last met in the league on 3 January 2026, when Reims edged a narrow 2-1 victory, though the competitive balance has shifted significantly since then.
Reims enter this encounter following a frustrating 3-3 draw against Dunkerque and a goalless stalemate with Clermont Foot. In contrast, Annecy FC have demonstrated clinical efficiency, following up a 1-0 victory at Pau with a comfortable 2-0 win over Rodez. With momentum firmly on their side, the visitors will look to maintain their perfect start, while Reims must find a defensive stability that has eluded them in their opening fixtures.
