Rennes Lens betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

The most probable scenario for this match will be for Rennes to score points. The home team enjoy a squad with more individual alternatives and play at home, that is, it is expected a total control of ball possession. On the other hand, Lens have a squad with some quality weapons, however, they should act in a very cautious way. That said, risking in favor of the "Under 2.5 Goals" market is a good option.

Preview
Rennes and Lens face at Roazhon Park, in a match for the 13th round of the Ligue 1. There is no record of official head‑to‑heads between these two teams in the last 3 years. The last time they met, on 28‑02‑2015, the match ended with the final score: Lens (0‑1) Rennes. Both teams register significant differences between home and away results, so the home/away factor is worth atention.

Analysis Rennes

The home team is currently in the 7th position of the league, with 19 points won, after 5 wins, 4 draws and 3 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in a home match against Bordeaux, by (0‑1). In the last match, they tied in an away match against Strasbourg, by (1‑1). This is a team that is often stronger at home, with the help of its supporters, so they usually make good use of the home advantage, since in the last 30 matches they register 3 wins, 4 draws and 8 losses in away matches; against 10 wins, 2 draws and 3 losses at their stadium. In their last match, for the UEFA Champions League, they got an away loss against Krasnodar by (1‑0). In the last 6 home league matches Rennes has a record of 3 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses, so they have won 10 points out of 18 possible. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 9 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 12 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 7 times and have only turned the score around in 2. In the last 6 home matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 3 of their 7 goals between minutes (46'‑60').

Rennes come to this game unmotivated after a 1-0 loss at Krasnodar, in a match counting for the group stage of the Champions League. It should be noted that the home team drew 1-1 against Strasbourg in the last round of Ligue 1. Manager Julien Stéphan should prioritize maintaining ball possession and organized attacks, especially through the aisles. It should be noted that midfielder Eduardo Camavinga is largely responsible for inventing the offensive process. Adrien Hunou is one of Rennes' top scorers, with 3 goals scored. For this match the home coach cannot count on Sehrou Guirassy, Nayef Aguerd, Jonas Martin and Daniele Rugani, injured, and also Martin Terrier, this one in quarantine.

Confirmed Lineup: Romain Salin, Hamari Traore, Damien Da Silva, Gerzino Nyamsi, Benjamin Bourigeaud, Steven​ N'Zonzi, Flavien Tait, James Léa Siliki, Adrien Hunou, Adrien Truffert, Romain Del Castillo.
Coach: B. Génésio.

Analysis Lens

The away team is currently in the 9th position of the league, with 18 points won, after 5 wins, 3 draws and 3 losses. In the penultimate match, they tied in a home match against Nantes, by (1‑1). In the last match, they lost in a home match against Angers SCO, by (1‑3). This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 7 wins, 3 draws and 5 losses in away matches, with 22 goals scored and 23 conceded; against 6 wins, 5 draws and 4 losses at their stadium, with 19 goals scored and 20 conceded. Their last away match for this competition ended in a win by (0‑1) against Dijon. In the last 5 away league matches Lens has a record of 2 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses, so they have won 7 points out of 15 possible. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 9 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In the last 6 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have scored 3 of their 6 goals between minutes (31'‑45').

Lens come to this match with a 1-3 home loss to Angers, thus adding the second consecutive game without winning in the French championship: the only goal of the team was signed by Arnaud Kalimuendo. Note that the visitors lost only 1 of the last 10 games played. In this match against Rennes, coach Franck Haise should favor the low middle block and counterattacks, exploring the space in the opponent's back in the best way. Midfielder Gaël Kakuta is the highlight of this Lens team, who is the top scorer, with 5 goals scored. There are no major absences for this game.

Confirmed Lineup: Jean-Louis Leca, Jonathan Clauss, Issiaga Sylla, Loic Bade, Jonathan Gradit, Massadio Haïdara, Seko Fofana, Yannick Cahuzac, Gaël Kakuta, Arnaud Muinga, Florian Sotoca.
Coach: F. Haise.
