Rennes vs Strasbourg Prediction

🔊 Will Strasbourg become another executioner of Rennes? In the 20th round of Ligue 1, these teams will face off at "Roazhon Park." The "Red and Blacks" will play as favorites, but this is solely due to the home-field advantage. They have lost five matches in a row, and they are hosting a team that is racking up victories one after another. Let's try to analyze the situation as a whole and choose the optimal prediction for this match.

📊 H2H

In head-to-head meetings, Rennes is ahead, having won five of the previous ten encounters. Meanwhile, Strasbourg has managed only three victories during this time. However, the most relevant statistics suggest that the "Red and Blacks" will face clear problems. Rennes has not won any of their last three matches and only managed to draw once. So, you might want to bet on Strasbourg not losing.

🔴 Rennes

Rennes has lost their fifth game in a row, which is extremely rare for this team. Usually, they immediately engage in the fight for European competitions, and the current season initially seemed no exception. But now the "Red and Blacks" are in clear danger, as they have only 17 points from 19 rounds. Currently, they are in 16th place in the standings, which does not allow them to retain their Ligue 1 status.

Moreover, Rennes is playing with the same lineup, which looks quite cohesive and serious. There are no new names in the club's infirmary: goalkeeper Alemdar and defender Seidu have been on the list for a long time.

⚪ Strasbourg

Strasbourg consistently delivers very bright performances but still hasn't earned the trust of bookmakers. In the last round, the team once again played as an underdog and defeated Lille away (2:1). They are now on an eight-match unbeaten streak, five of which were victories. Therefore, it's surprising to see that the club's chances of success against Rennes are considered low, given that we are expecting a match between the ninth and 16th teams in Ligue 1 at the moment.

Moreover, there shouldn't be any significant difficulties in choosing the lineup. Everyone who helped the team achieve results in recent matches will be available. The infirmary still only includes defender Wahi and forwards Bakwa and Dion.

⚽️ Goal Prediction

Strasbourg rarely plays cautiously, even when it comes to away matches. That's why these guys have exchanged goals with their last five opponents. Rennes has very poor results but at least some stability in terms of scoring: the "Red and Blacks" have scored against six of their last seven opponents. So our editorial team recommends betting on Both teams to score: yes.

🚩 Corner Prediction

Both teams have rather modest statistics. But while Strasbourg averages at least 8.1 corners, Rennes' number hangs at just 6.4. And that's more than enough to bet on Total corners under 9.5 in this matchup.

📝 Match Prediction

Although Rennes is the nominal favorite in this meeting, it's very hard to believe in a victory for the hosts. The current form of the "Red and Blacks" is simply terrible; they have deservedly lost five matches in a row. Strasbourg looked excellent in battles against Marseille (1:1) and Lille (2:1) in previous rounds; this team has definitely gained good momentum. We believe that the match will end with a 2:1 victory for Strasbourg.

Rennes could indeed lose again or even suffer a defeat. It's no coincidence that Strasbourg hasn't lost in eight matches in a row, regardless of the level of their opponents. It seems that Rosenoir's team is capable of finding an approach to almost any opponent. Therefore, our editorial team advises betting on Strasbourg not losing.
