Rennes - Nantes Prediction, Picks and Tips
Rennes is being one of the great revelations of a Ligue 1 in which maximum equality reigns among the teams in the middle of the table. Julien Stephan's team is doing more than a worthy season and has settled in 3rd place in the standings with 37 points, thanks to 11 wins and 4 draws in 21 games (only 6 losses). The secret of the team is being a good defense. Although he is not one of the top scorer teams in the French league, Rennes has shown great defensive strength that has led him to fit only 19 goals, less than one goal per game. In his last game he drew 1-1 against Nice away from home, so he will try to return to the path of victory. A triumph would serve to establish itself in the Europa League positions and, who knows, maybe dreaming about the Champions League.
Nantes arrives at the game after a last disappointing match against the Girondins de Bordeaux. What could have been an opportunity to climb into the noble posts of Ligue 1 became a nightmare. The team was defeated 0-1 at home and lost a key train in this midseason. Even so, Nantes occupies the 6th position of the classification and is only 5 points from the positions that give direct access to the Europa League, since it occupies precisely the Rennes, its rival this weekend.
