Reims vs Rennes Prediction – Betting Tips – May 19, 2024
Under the temporary stewardship of Samba Diawara, Reims have shown noticeable improvements, particularly in their defensive organization. With just one goal conceded in their recent matches, Diawara’s tactics have starkly contrasted with the porous defense seen during the last regime where Reims allowed nine goals in three games. This solid defensive stance could play a pivotal role as Reims hosts Rennes in the concluding round of Ligue 1.
Rennes, positioned slightly above Reims in the standings, faces its worst season in a decade, regardless of the upcoming match outcome. Historically, they last concluded a Ligue 1 season with fewer than 50 points in 2013/14. Currently, both teams have no stakes in climbing into the top echelons, but pride and tactical positions for the next season play into their motivations.
Reims boasts an impressive record against Rennes at home, being undefeated in six of their last seven encounters. Coupled with their current form and the uplift in morale under Diawara, Reims is poised to potentially secure all three points in this fixture.
Half-Time Insights
The initial halves in recent encounters between Reims and Rennes have invariably seen goals, indicating a likely continuation of this trend. Both teams have demonstrated a tendency to find the net early, with 10 goals recorded in the first halves of their last five face-offs. This pattern suggests that an early goal is highly probable.
Total Goals Prediction
The encounters between Reims and Rennes at this venue have consistently been high-scoring affairs, with recent matches witnessing 4 to 5 goals each game. Overlooking the venue factor, their clashes generally tend to see at least three goals or more, further supported by Rennes’ recent burst of scoring 22 goals in five matches. This makes a strong case for expecting at least three goals in their upcoming duel.
Match Outcome Prediction
Reims vs Rennes: 3-2.
Anticipating an action-packed match, the favor tilts towards Reims leveraging their home advantage and current form to edge out Rennes in a thrilling encounter.
