Betting on Rennes
Rennes heads into this match sitting in sixth place with 50 points, just two behind Lille, who currently hold the last European competition spot. Needless to say, this team needs a win badly, especially considering they’ve gone five matches without one, including three losses.
Their last time out was a tough pill to swallow, as they fell 3-1 to Olympique Lyon, surrendering the lead they had built in the first half and allowing three goals in the final half-hour of play. As for their home form, it’s been a while since they’ve tasted victory on their own turf, with their last win at home coming way back on February 19th, when they took down Clermont 2-0.
Probable lineup (4-2-3-1): Dogan Alemdar; Hamari Traoré, Warmed Omari, Arthur Theate, Birger Meling; Lesley Ugochukwu, Baptiste Santamaria; Benjamin Bourigeaud, Lovro Majer, Amine Gouiri; Arnaud Kalimuendo.
Betting on Stade de Reims
With 47 points, the visiting team occupies the eighth place in the standings. They are coming from a 1-1 draw at home against Stade Brestois, so they need to get back to winning ways to stay in the top five.
Reims has an interesting away record, having not lost in that condition for five matches. In fact, in their last away game, they defeated Nantes by a convincing 3-0, and before that, they won at Monaco (0-1) and drew at PSG (1-1).
Probable lineup (4-2-3-1): Yehvann Diouf; Thomas Foket, Emmanuel Agbadou, Yunis Abdelhamid, Thibault de Smet; Jens Cajuste, Azor Matusiwa; Junya Ito, Marshall Munetsi, Alexis Flips; Folarin Balogun.
JefeBet Prediction
This could be an attractive duel, with two teams looking to get closer to qualifying for next season’s international tournaments. Although the home team is Rennes, it has not had a good record and faces a team that has achieved good results away from home.
It is likely that both teams will score, although the tension of the moment could put these teams into trouble. Therefore, at JefeBet we believe that a draw may be possible between these teams that are at the top of the table, but with ups and downs in their performances.
Prediction: Both teams score (REN 1-1 REI).
