Rennes vs Toulouse Prediction
🔊 In the 24th round of Ligue 1, Rennes are set to face their most challenging opponent, Toulouse, at Roazhon Park. Can the "Red and Blacks" break through the visitors' solid defense and secure a spot in the top five of the standings? To answer this, let's delve into the prediction.
Head-to-Head
📊 Why are Toulouse such a tough opponent for the hosts? Rennes have failed to secure a win in their last six head-to-head encounters! They have only managed two draws, with the rest being victories for the "Purples". This intriguing fact adds extra excitement to this matchup.
H2H Stats Matches and Previous Teams Results
Stade Rennes Team Overview
🔴 Rennes enter the crucial stage of the season with a host of issues. Recently, the club changed their head coach: on February 7, Lens outplayed the "Red and Blacks," handing them their fourth consecutive defeat with an aggregate score of 1-12, leading to the dismissal of Habib Beye. The club's management appointed Franck Haise to rectify the situation-he previously worked at Rennes from 2006 to 2012, heading the club's academy.
⚫ Haise's appointment has been a breath of fresh air for the team: they first defeated PSG with Matvey Safonov in goal (3-1), and confidently overcame Auxerre in their last match (3-0). Currently, Rennes sit in sixth place on the table with 37 points: catching the top three seems unlikely, but they have every chance to contend for the fourth spot.

Toulouse Team Overview
🟣 Toulouse are having a typical season for them. They aren't contending for a top-five finish, yet they keep a safe distance from the relegation zone. Currently, the club sits in tenth place on the table with 31 points. Their position is quite precarious: any gain or loss of points could shift them at least two spots up or down.
🔴 It's worth highlighting the solid defensive play of "Les Violets" at their own end. Carles Martinez relies on a 3-4-2-1 formation, allowing the team to effectively manage their half of the field. Over 23 matches, Toulouse have conceded 27 goals, a tally bettered only by the top three-PSG, Lens, and Lyon.

Latest news
Stade Rennes
✒ Let's take a closer look at the new head coach. The 54-year-old Franck Haise has signed a contract running until the summer of 2027. He brings solid experience from Ligue 1, having managed Lens from 2020 to 2024, and was named the best coach in the French league in 2023. His previous role was with Nice, which he left in December.
❌ The "Red and Blacks" are dealing with some setbacks. Key defenders Przemysław Frankowski and Jérémy Jacquet will miss the match due to injuries, along with midfielder Glen Kamara, who has only made three appearances this season.
Toulouse
🖊 During the winter transfer window, the club was quite active. Forward Noah Ejduma departed for Nice for 6 million euros, having failed to score in 12 matches. To replace him, Jaysen Russell-Rowe arrived from American side Columbus, who netted 9 goals and provided 3 assists in 2025.
❌ Toulouse face significant losses ahead of the match. Key midfielders Christian Carreras (suspended due to yellow card accumulation) and Aron Dennum (banned for racism), along with Abu Francis, who has been out since November with a broken leg, will miss the game. Additionally, main forward Franck Magri (injured at the end of January) and Rafiq Messali are also unavailable.
🟨 Referee and Yellow Cards
Both Rennes and Toulouse are relatively fair-playing teams. They don't frequently resort to fouling their opponents, averaging around two yellow cards per match. The main referee for this game is Stéphanie Frappart, who is known for being reserved with her cards, averaging just four per match. We suggest betting on total yellow cards under 4.5.
⚽️ Goal Prediction
Rennes have found the back of the net three times in each of their last two games, including a match against PSG. While Toulouse are more defensively minded, they have managed to score at Roazhon Park in their last four visits. On average, both teams score around 1.5 goals per game, so it's reasonable to expect a high-scoring affair. We believe the teams will combine for at least three goals and recommend betting on total goals over 2.5.
🚩 Corner Prediction
Rennes are expected to be the main contributors to corner kicks, averaging six per game at home. Toulouse, on the other hand, tend to be more modest away, averaging 4.5 corners. Notably, in the last eight home matches for the "Red and Blacks," there have been at least 10 corner kicks taken. We suggest betting on total corners over 9.5.
Editorial Prediction
Everything suggests that the hosts will break their six-match winless streak against Toulouse. Since the coaching change, the team has improved offensively, netting three goals in recent games. Meanwhile, the visitors are going through a tough spell, having failed to secure a win in their last three matches. We believe Rennes, riding a wave of positive momentum, can claim all three points and recommend betting on a Rennes victory. As for the final score: remember that Toulouse boasts one of the best defensive lines in Ligue 1, so they are unlikely to allow the hosts' forwards much freedom. However, the visitors can still find the back of the net, as they have a knack for scoring against Rennes, especially with key defenders sidelined for the hosts. A final score prediction of 2-1 in favor of the hosts seems reasonable.
