However, when the head coach is fired, the assistant managers suddenly become the most powerful people on the team, despite the fact that they were never even noticed before.The job isn’t always a bed of roses; once the infamous “new manager bounce” wears off, a team’s old problems can resurface.

However, in the case of Will Stilland Reims, he has bestowed the club with a run of form that has destroyed the narrative of mediocrity that had surrounded the club in recent years. Thus, all the above-mentioned managerspalein comparison to what the french Ligue 1 team are doing for their coach.

Which club has the highest unbeaten streak in Europe’s top five leagues?

With their current streak of 18 unbeatengames (nine wins, nine draws), Reims hold the longest ongoing undefeated record among Europe’s top five leagues.The 30-year-old is the youngest manager in the major professional leagues, having begun his career on the Football Manager video game.

The Belgian lacks the requisite experience to lead a team in the major leagues as he doesn’thave a Uefa Pro Licence. So, Reims must pay €25,000 each time they play a game. But, the gains they have gained,more than offset the regular cash outlays.

Just before the season began, Still was named the team’s assistant manager. He was promoted to the position of caretaker manager when Oscar Garcia was let go as manager. Yet, following a winning streak of five games, Still was promoted despite not having any prior experience as a manager.

Since his employment, Reims have gone unbeaten in league play, making them the only undefeated team in any of the top five European leagues. In addition, they have allowed just seven goals over this span, worse than onlyBarcelona and Newcastle.

Things haven’t gone exactly according to plan so far, since their ultimate goal of winning the UEFA Champions League has yet to be accomplished. The French team is back in contention this season, yet the trio continues to face critics.

While the press has been particularly harsh on Messi and Neymar, all three superstars were recently blasted by Reims captainYunis Abdelhamid following their 1-1 draw on Matchday 20 of the 2022-23 Ligue 1.

Reims captain takes a shot at PSG trio of Messi, Mbappe, Neymar

“It was easy to work the ball out of the defence because the front three [Messi, Mbappé, Neymar] don’t defend. We knew on our side that if we passed this first line, they no longer participate in the collective defensive effort,“Abdelhamid said, via Goal.“We worked on that. We wanted to exploit it and that’s what we managed to do. That’s why we created so many chances.”

Reims snatched a late draw against PSG at the Parc des Princes after trailing for much of the game. Neymar put the hostsin front after 51 minutes, before Marco Verratti left the Parisians down to ten men.

Just when the game was heading for the final whistle, Folarin Balogun capitalized on a perfect opportunity to put things level at the 96th minute. PSG still lead the Ligue 1 table three points clear of Lens, but will try and get back to winning ways on Wednesday against Montpellier.

PSG went on a tour to Saudi Arabia to play a friendly game against Cristiano Ronaldo, but they have to get back on track in the league because their recent matches weren’t favorable. The Parisians lost two out of their last three matchdays, which made it possible for Lens to get near them in the second place. Their tie on Saturday vs Troyes gave the leaders the possibility of taking a five-point gap with a win.

Reims are in the middle of the standings with a decent season so far. They haven’t won a lot of games, although they are not an easy team to beat. The streak of 11 undefeated matchups shows they can be an obstacle for the hosts.

This will be their 29th league meeting. No surprises here as Paris Saint-Germain have been the absolute favorites in head-to-head duels, winning 14 games so far; Stade de Reims have celebrated a victory seven times to this day, and the remaining seven matches have ended in a draw so far.

Their most recent game was played on October 8, 2022, when the game ended in a disappointing goallesstie at the Stade Auguste-Delaune in Reims. It promises to be an even more exciting clash as they meet for the second time in the 2022/2023 Ligue 1 season.

PSG probable lineup

Presnel Kimpembe has not yet returned to team training, and in his place, Galtier should continue to start Sergio Ramos and Marquinhos. In addition, Nordi Mukiele is looking at a few weeks on the sidelines with a hamstring injury suffered against Rennes, so Paris Saint-Germain may be without two players for this clash.

On the other hand, now that Marco Verratti has started training again, he may be able to contribute. Meanwhile,Lionel Messiwas understandably benched for the match against Pays de Cassel but will rejoin the team’s potent front trio.

PSG predicted XI:
Donnarumma; Hakimi, Marquinhos, Ramos, Mendes; Vitinha, Verratti, Ruiz; Messi; Mbappe, Neymar.

Reims probable lineup

Reims might possibly be missing only two players as well, Nathanael Mbuku and Noah Jean Holm.Thibault de Smet, who was out for the victory against Les Herbiers, is also questionable for this match.

Reims predicted XI:
Diouf; Foket, Agbadou, Abdelhamid, Busi; Munetsi, Matusiwa; Ito, Zeneli, Flips; Balogun.

The Paris team is coming off a tie that really did not leave their fans very satisfied. Although they were playing away against the other Group H leaders, PSG were expected to win that UEFA Champions League Matchday 3 game without any major problems. However, it did not happen that way: it was a 1-1 draw, so now they will seek to recover and continue at the top of Ligue 1.

Their rivals are a team in dire need of points and in a relegation zone, which, as always, can be something in their favor since obviously it is not a team that has had good performances; or against because they also tend to be teams that defend well, and seek to make a difference with a counterattack. It will be interesting to see if Reims will be able to contain PSG.

Christophe Galtier‘s men may arrive as strong favorites, but facing this clash without the Argentina superstar will certainly be a challenging task. Let’s keep in mind that Messi scored in each of PSG’s last four games.

Now, it’s up to Neymar and Kylian Mbappe to put the team on their backs, at least for this game. Messi, who was subbed off in the 81st minute against Benfica in the UEFA Champions League, was ruled out for the Reims trip.

What injury does Lionel Messi have?

Lionel Messi is not playing for PSG against Reims due to a calf strain sustained during his team’s 1-1 draw against Benfica on Matchday 3 of the Champions League group stage.

“After coming off on Wednesday with a slight calf strain, Leo Messi underwent treatment after reassuring medical examinations. An assessment of his progress will be made on Sunday,” PSG said in a statement.

WhenPablo Sarabia came on for Messi against Benfica, many wondered whether it was a tactical decision of Galtier or if something was wrong with the Argentine. Galtier later confirmed Messi asked to be substituted.

“Messi will not be at this matchday’s game, but, if all goes well, he will return to training on Sunday morning,” Galtiersaid in the pre-match press conference, via Marca.

Reims are fighting for their life after a bad start of the season. At the moment, the club sits at the 17th spot in the table with only seven points and in relegation zone. Stade de Reims have not won in their last four matches and, in an incredible stat, the club has received at least one red card in six of their nine games in France. Just unbelievable for a squadlooking for salvation.

On the other side, Lionel Messi is in a great moment and, because of a calf injury and to give him some rest, he has been oficially ruled out for the match against Reims. Last Wednesday, PSG couldn’t beat Benfica at Portugal (1-1) in the Champions League. Even though they’re undefeated in Ligue 1 and are the leaders, Paris Saint Germain only has a two-point advantage overMarseille and a slim three-point difference with this season’s surprise: Lorient.

Reims lineup

The headache for Reims’manager Oscar Garcia is how to replace striker, Junya Ito, considering the Japanese player got a red card against Troyes. After Folarin Balogun, Ito is the second best scorer in the team with three goals in the 2022-2023 Ligue 1.

Reims’ probable lineup against PSG: Yehvann Diouf, Yunis Abdelhamid, Emmanuel Agbadou, Andreaw Gravillon; Bradley Locko, Jens Cajuste, Azor Matusiwa, Mitchell van Bergen, Alexis Flips, Folarin Balogun and Nathanael Mbuku.

PSG lineup

After a 1-1 draw against Benfica in the 2022-2023 Champions League, the biggest question for Christophe Galtier’s squad is if there will be any rotations to rest some star players. PSGface Reims this Saturday and then Benfica will pay the visit to Paris on Tuesday. LionelMessi is officially out with a calf injury and Kylian Mbappé will be a game time decision with angina.Nuno Mendes will also not play because of amuscular problem (thigh) and the Portuguese defender could be out for several weeks.

PSG’s probable lineup against Reims:Gianluigi Donnaruma, Nordi Mukiele, Marquinhos, Sergio Ramos; Hakimi, Vitinha, Fabian Peña, Juan Bernat; Hugo Ekitike, Neymar and Mbappé.

Under Oscar Garcia’s management, Reims started their season as bad as it can be. In fact, Reims have picked up a single win over 10 matchdays so far. That’s why currently, Reims are placed in the relegation zone at the 17th place with 7 points. However, their main striker Polarin Balogun is placed among the top scorers of the current season with 6 goals scored, one more than Lionel Messi, and just behind Neymar and Mbappe, who both got 8 goals scored.

On the other side, as mentioned before, PSG have the best attacking trio of the league, with a combined of 21 goals scored between their stars. As well as the best offensive with 28 goals scored, and the best defensive alongside Marseille, who have just 5 goals conceded over 10 French League games. As the pressure is starting to growfor PSG coach Christophe Galtier, the Parisians have responded with 0 losses between all competitions.

Their most recent game took place on August 29, 2021, when the Parisians won with a final result of a simple 2-0 away at Stade Auguste Delaune in Reims. It promises to be an even more exciting clash as they meet for the second time in the 2021/2022 Ligue 1 season.

PSG probablelineup

Abdou Diallo, Achraf Hakimi, and Idrissa Gueye have been ruled out due to their participation at the 2021Africa Cup of Nations, while Juan Bernat is still recovering from COVID-19, and Neymar and Georginio Wijnaldum are all still hurt and on the sidelines.

With Wijnaldum now absent, Danilo Pereira and Leandro Paredes should battle for a midfield berth, while Keylor Navas should be fit to return to the matchday squad given that Sergio Rico has joined Mallorca on loan. Mauricio Pochettino would hope to see Lionel Messi return to play, but Mbappe is a fresh doubt due to a groin problem, with a decision on his participation expected this weekend.

PSG possible starting XI:
Donnarumma; Kehrer, Marquinhos, Kimpembe, Mendes; Herrera, Pereira, Verratti; Di Maria, Icardi, Messi.

Reims probable lineup

Since Guinea Bissau disappointingly crashed outfrom the AFCON, Moreto Cassama will shortly return to Reims, although Ghislain Konan, Moussa Doumbia, and El Bilal Toure are still in the competition. Hugo Ekitike will return from suspension to lead the line, while manager Oscar Garcia may be inclined to chooseMbuku or Alexis Flips in place of Martin Adeline.

Reims are lacking midfield depth at the moment with Marshall Munetsi, Azor Matusiwa, Valon Berisha, and Arber Zeneli all ruled out as a result of injuries. However, theRed and Whiteshave addressed the issueby adding Jens Cajuste from Midtjylland during the January transfer window.

Reims possible starting XI:
Rajkovic; Gravillon, Abdelhamid, Faes; Foket, Cajuste, Lopy, Locko; Kebbal, Mbuku; Ekitike.

Paris Saint-Germain are alone at the top of the 2021-2022 Ligue 1 standings with 50 points after 21 matches. Pochettino‘s side accumulates 10 games without defeats, taking all competitions into account.

Meanwhile, Stade de Reims are in 14th place with 24 points. Oscar Garcia’s team lost to Metz 1-0 last week to extend its negative run to three French league games without victories. And now its will have to face title favorites PSG with the probable return of Messi.

PSG vs Reims: Date

The match for the 22nd round of the 2021-2022 Ligue 1 season between PSG and Reims will be played on Sunday, January 23, at the Parc des Princes. Last time they met, Paris Saint-Germain won 2-0 with two goals scored by Kylian Mbappe.
