A first-half Hamari Traore goal handed Reims back-to-back wins in a 1-0 victory which condemned struggling Marseille to their second consecutive defeat of the Ligue 1 campaign. Marseille, still reeling from the shock resignation of coach Marcelo Bielsa following their opening 1-0 defeat to Caen, failed to threaten the Champagne side who won their opening two matches of the season for the first time since returning to the elite four years ago.

Reims provisionally take top spot equal on six points with Caen, 1-0 winners on Saturday against Toulouse, and ahead of Sunday's later games when champions Paris Saint-Germain are at home to newly-promoted Corsican minnows Gazelec Ajaccio. Marseille, by contrast, are in the relegation zone.
