Rennes form and stats

OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for Rennes's two home games in the Ligue 1 so far this season, having collected 4 points here at Roazhon Park.

The home team returns to Roazhon Park after drawing with Brest (placed 5th) on their last time out; the game ended 0-0. The goalie Mandanda was named most valuable player of the team in that game, scoring 7.44 out of ten. Mandanda topped it up with a clean sheet.

In the match before that, Rennes hosted Le Havre and drew the game 2-2.

This is expected to be a close game, with Rennes perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Rennes as a small favourite), we find 4 games. Rennes has won 3 of these, drawn 0 and lost 1.

At Roazhon Park, Rennes has the goal stats of 7-3 (for/against) from 2 league fixtures.

Lille form and stats

The Ligue 1 season is young and Lille have only just started going through their travel schedule, with 2 away games done and still no victory. 1 draw and 1 defeat so far.

Lille are travelling after their nice 1-0 home win in the fixture against Montpellier (placed 14th). Chevalier was the team player of the game with the player rating of 8.63. The agile goalkeeper Chevalier topped it up with a clean sheet.

Before that, 1-1 away against Rijeka (after extra-time) in the Europa Conference League. So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Lille playing away and similar expectations, we found 8 relevant matches. Results were 2 Lille wins, 5 draws and 1 defeat.

A quick return to home after this game, as Lille are hosting Olimpija in the Europa Conference League only four days away.

{2 goals} so far away for Lille, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 5. All from 2 league matches away.

Head 2 Head

Lille have pulled off a streak of 8 consecutive games without losing (4-4-0) when facing Rennes.
