The Ligue 1 season is still fresh and sports bettors should be cautious. This meeting between Rennes and Lille promises to be an interesting one.

These are busy days for the home team, as they were in action only three days ago in the Europa League. This match was also played here at Roazhon Park. With two consecutive home games the intense schedule is somewhat softened. Still, Lille have had more rest. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at Celtic.

Rennes form and stats

Only two Ligue 1 home games for Rennes so far, yet both highs and lows with 1 win, 0 draws and 1 defeat.

The points were shared in Rennes's previous game, also at home. Visiting Celtic travelled back with a point after a 1-1 scoreline. Before that, Rennes played out a Ligue 1 draw 0-0 when visiting Brest.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Rennes have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found eight matches with the results: Won 4 Drawn 3 Lost 1.

There will be little rest for Rennes after this match as they are travelling to Nantes for a Ligue 1 game in only three days.

Rennes has scored 3 goals so far and conceded 3 goals from 2 home games. These are numbers from the league only.

Lille form and stats

It's not happening yet for Lille on their Ligue 1 travels, with zero points from their first 2 away games. Maybe today will be different? Lille has lost their two previous away games and are eager to kill a negative trend in its infancy.

Lille play their second straight away game, having lost the previous one 0-3 to Ajax. Prior to that match, a home win 2-1 against Angers SCO in the Ligue 1.

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 eleven relevant matches. Results were 5 Lille wins, 0 draws and 6 defeats.

After this away game Lille return home for a Ligue 1 game against Strasbourg. That game is only three sleeps after this.

0 goals so far away for Lille, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 3. All from 2 league matches away.

Head 2 Head

Last ten meetings between the teams: Rennes won 5, Lille won 2 and 3 draws. 5 games with over 2,5 goals, 5 matches with two goals or less.
