Rennes will go hunting for a fourth straight win in Ligue 1 when they visit Nice. As Nice look to rise away from the relegation zone, Rennes will be keen on breaking into the top six. We have a prediction for this match below.
In their last five matches, Nice have gone winless inside 90 minutes. However, on post-match penalties, they squeezed their way into the French Cup semis after eliminating 10-man Lorient.
They resume Ligue 1 action, where they haven't won in five games. The last time out in the league, Nice lost 1-0. Having won this fixture 2-1 away from home, Les Aiglons will be eyeing a double here.
Rennes didn’t have cup activities in midweek and will be fresher as they resume league action. Les Rouge et Noirs ended a five-match lull in Ligue 1 with three straight victories.
Their 1-0 win against Toulouse last time out ushered in their extended rest, and Rennes will be fired up for this. In each of the earlier two matches, they scored three times.
Rennes will feel they can stand up to Nice, even though they lost on each of their last three visits here. Away to Nice, Rennes are winless in four games. Generally, their away run in recent times hasn’t been great, with Rennes losing three of the last four matches.
