Rennes vs PSG Prediction & Betting Tips - Ligue 1
by Nella Wagah | in Ligue 1 Prediction
Rennes are coming from a 2-1 away win over Vitesse in the Conference League and will be hoping to continue in the same breath when hosting giants PSG in their Ligue 1 meeting on Sunday. The two sides occupy opposite ends of the league standings, Rennes 13th with nine points and PSG top with 24 points. Rennes have proven to be very plucky opponents against PSG in recent times, and after a slow start to the season, they will hope this game jumpstarts their domestic campaign. The win at Vitesse was Rennes’ second in five matches and they have been impressive in attack, scoring two or more in three of the five but they have just one clean sheet in five matches. Three of their last five matches have produced over 2.5 goals and they have just one loss at home in the last nine. Their last home game served a 6-0 win over Clermont.
PSG are on fire this season; they’ve only lost once – in the season curtain raising game against current champions Lille. They have been high-flying since and in Ligue 1, they have eight wins in eight matches this season, and scored 22 goals, which places them as the best attacking side so far. In each of their last four matches, they have scored two goals, and this includes their latest one, a 2-0 win over Manchester City. Lionel Messi scored his first goal for PSG in the City win and will hope to open his Ligue 1 account too. Three of PSG’s last five league matches have produced over 2.5 goals and they have 10 straight wins in the league as well as a 15-game unbeaten Ligue 1 run. Away from home, PSG are unbeaten in their last 12 league games.

Our Rennes vs PSG Prediction
PSG have the favorites’ feel going to this game, but Rennes have shown they can be lethal in attack. While the hosts’ quality doesn’t match the visitors’, they have the spirit and given a chance can cause a major upset. These two sides have been in high scoring matches and going for over 2.5 goals here sounds like the best pick.
