Betting on Stade Rennais F.C.
The Rennes team is on fire after an incredible 0-2 victory over Paris Saint-Germain in their last game, securing them a spot in fifth place with a total of 50 points. As a result, they have earned the last ticket to the European competitions.
That match against PSG once again showcased Les Rouges et Noirs’ defensive prowess, as it was the fourth time in their last five Ligue 1 appearances that they kept a clean sheet.
Playing at home could be crucial for Rennes to secure another three points in this round, as they have won 11 out of 14 home games this season and have conceded only 37.9% (11) of their total goals in the current 2022-23 Ligue 1 campaign at home.
Possible lineup (4-4-2): Steve Mandanda; Djed Spence, Christopher Wooh, Arthur Theate, Adrien Truffert; Benjamin Bourigeaud, Lovro Majer, Baptiste Santamaria, Karl Toko Ekambi; Amine Gouiri, Arnaud Kalimuendo.
Betting on Racing Club de Lens
Lens, currently standing in third place, is having a great season despite being far from the title race. With a three-point lead over their nearest rival, they are hoping to make a comeback to the UEFA Champions League after many years.
Lens will aim to prolong their unbeaten run in the league to six games when they return to action, following their 3-0 triumph over Angers in their previous match. Along with this victory, Lens has scored 7 goals in their last two matches in the top tier of French soccer.
While they have been excellent at home, Lens has also performed well on the road this season, losing only two out of 14 away games. However, with eight of those matches ending in draws, they will have to fight hard to secure a win in their upcoming match.
Possible lineup (4-1-4-1): Brice Samba; Przemysław Frankowski, Jonathan Gradit, Kevin Danso, Massadio Haidara; Salis Abdul Samed; Florian Sotoca, Adrien Thomasson, Seko Fofana, Lois Openda; Angelo Fulgini.
JefeBet Prediction
Despite being one of the highest-scoring teams in the league and having impressive numbers on the road, Lens tends to struggle away from home (with only 18 goals scored). As such, they won’t have an easy time here against a Rennes team that has been solid in defense recently, even managing to hold off a team like PSG.
To make matters worse for Lens, Rennes has been excellent at home this season, scoring 30 of their 47 goals in that condition. Therefore, Lens will have to put in a lot of effort to maintain their unbeaten run.
Rennes, riding high after their win over PSG, is expected to continue their winning streak at home with their lethal offense and sturdy defense. We predict a tightly contested match, but ultimately Rennes will emerge victorious.
Prediction: Rennes Moneyline (REN 1-0 LEN)
