Reims have lost their last five Ligue 1 matches without scoring a single goal. This is only the second time Reims have recorded five consecutive games without scoring in the top-flight after November-December 2012 (5), while they are the first team to record five consecutive games without scoring since Toulouse in February 2020 (5).
Auxerre have won two of their last three Ligue 1 matches (L1), after having won none of their previous 10 – AJA have taken as many points from those three matches as they did during that previous 10-match run (6 - D6 L4).
Reims have lost 13 games this season in Ligue 1 (W5 D7), having never recorded more defeats after 25 games in a single campaign in the top-flight (also 13 in 1966/67, 1977/78 and 1978/79).
Reims have gone two games without a win against Auxerre (both times in Ligue 1) after winning each of the first five in all competitions. In Ligue 1, the record between the two clubs is perfectly balanced with one win for each side and one draw.
Reims have won all three of their home meetings with Auxerre in all competitions (2 in Ligue 2, 1 in Ligue 1), making them the team currently in Ligue 1 that the Champenois have hosted the most while posting 100% wins in all comps.
Reims have lost their last five Ligue 1 matches, the longest current run with Montpellier and their longest since October-November 2015. They have failed to score in the last four but have not had a longer such run in the top-flight since November-December 2012 (5).
Beaten 1-0 at home to Strasbourg last time out, Auxerre have not recorded two straight defeats in the top-flight since August-September last year (4).
Reims are on a two home game losing streak in Ligue 1 (1-2 v Nantes, 0-1 v Angers), their first since April-August 2022 (4).
