The match to end in a draw
Rennais will travel to Reims hoping to back another win on the road after the last time out in Metz. After losing five consecutive matches, Rennais have rediscovered their form again and have now won twice in a row. While the visitors sit 7th on the table, beating 12th placed Reims that has not lost in the last six league matches will be difficult. We expect a tough duel in which both the teams will share the spoils in a 1-1 FT result.
Both teams to score and draw full time
Reims manager, David Guion will be meeting Rennais manager, Bruno Genesio for the third time. The hosting manager has one draw and one victory against his Sunday opponent. Given that the Rennais have picked form and only four points from Conference League qualification, the hosts will hope to contain the visitors in a difficult match. Both the teams have seven shots on target in their previous two fixtures. The hosts have scored in five of their last six games. An inspired away team will be tough to beat and we are predicting both teams to find the net.
Half time over 0.5
Given the quality and recent forms of both teams, we are back on either side to find the net in the first half. At least one goal is the first half, therefore, looks good on the books for this fixture.
Match Preview: Reims vs. Rennais
Both teams look comfortable on the table. A win for either side edges them closer to the top half. Let’s quickly look at the individual team stats and form.
Reims
Reims is unbeaten in 6 league goals. They haven’t been scoring a lot of goals. Defensively, the hosts have conceded a goal in the last five games. Reims manager is unbeaten by Rennais manager and will be hoping to maintain that record. The hosts have won 7 out of their last 15 meetings with Sunday opponents. Since 2018, Reims has not lost to Rennais, a record they will equally want to maintain.
Rennais
Rennais picked a surprise win on the road before the international break. Beating Metz away with a red card and a previous victory over Strasbourg is enough motivation to see them battle for top five. A red card saw the visitors concede a goal, which is the only one in their last two fixtures. However, Reims hasn’t conceded more than one goal in their last fixtures and Rennais will be lucky to get a win in this fixture. The best they can expect is a draw.
