Sunderland will be playing European football this season after finishing eighth in the Premier League last season. Saturday sees them host Rennes in a pre-season friendly. Looking at the stats,an open game is expected here and our prediction is BTTS.
It'll cheer Sunderland fans that they are in Europe this season and arch-rivals Newcastle aren't. They had an impressive season last term as they made their return to the top-flight. Second seasons are often difficult and with European football to contend with too, it could be hard to repeat last season's efforts.
Pre-season has gone well though with five matches being played and only one loss. That was a 1-0 defeat by Leeds in the USA. Wins have come against York City, Liverpool (after trailing), Wrexham and most recently, Lens in a match played behind closed doors.
Rennes finished sixth in Ligue 1 last season. This term will see them playing in the Europa League league phase. They only missed out on Champions League qualification by a single point and were behind fifth placed Marseille on goal difference.
Their most recent match saw them beaten 4-2 at home by Brentford. That followed a 3--3 draw at Galatasaray. Their last win came on July 25 when they beat Club Brugge 2-1 at home. All their friendlies have seen both teams score.
