Team News: Three in attack for Reims as they welcome Saint-Etienne

Reims have opted for a 4-3-3 formation as they take on Saint-Etienne in Ligue 1 this evening.

Former Liverpool forward David Ngog, Nicolas de Preville and Gaetan Charbonnier all start in attack

The three forwards are to be supported by a midfield made up of Gregory Bourillon, Antoine Devaux and Diego Rigonato.

Saint-Etienne have left their faith in Norwich City loanee Ricky van Wolfswinkel, who is partnered by Yohan Mollo in attack as Christophe Galtier's men look for a win to move them above Paris Saint-Germain in the table.

The away side will also feature the creative abilities of Romain Hamouma in the middle, while captain Loic Perrin leads from the back.

Reims: Placide; Roberge, Mavinga, Tacalfred, Conte, Bourillon, Devaux, Rigonato, Charbonnier, De Preville, Ngog
