Defeated by a short header against Marseille (2-3) last weekend, Toulouse wants to resume its march forward in Reims (Sunday 3 p.m.). An expected opposition between two surprise teams this season in Ligue 1. Undefeated since Will Still took office, Reims remains on a series of 16 games without defeat in the league. Only Toulouse managed to surprise the Champenois in the round of 16 of the Coupe de France. In a press conference, TFC coach Philippe Montanier returned to the possible impact of this success in the national cup on this meeting but also on his ambition to integrate the Top 10.
“These are very important matches if we want to try to go up a step every time”
“Often, in different competitions, it is never the same matches even if they are the same opponents. We inevitably expect a not easy match, it is often the daily lot for us. I think Reims will make a point of winning at home. I don’t think there is a psychological advantage for us” he says about a possible fear of the Rémois. “We said that we had to win the matches against our direct competitors when we were in the second part. There, we will meet two teams close to the top 10 like us (with Clermont, March 5). These are matches very important if you want to try every time to go up a step” he confides to our colleagues from the newspaper L’Equipe.
