With their 5 point advantage in the league table, Rennes fans are hoping to see their team collect maximum points from this game against Strasbourg.

Insights:
  • Rennes have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
  • Strasbourg have played more matches over 2,5 goals away than home.

Rennes have less rest than Strasbourg in this fixture, as the hosts were involved in a Ligue 1 game only four days ago. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at Olympique Marseille.

These teams have little in common geographically as Strasbourg have to travel 800 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.

Rennes form and stats

Rennes have collected 18 points from their Ligue 1 home games so far after 5-3-6. Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for Rennes with their five defeats in a row. Not since the Lens game, 35 days ago, have they avoided a loss. Rennes are very eager to stop a potential losing streak at Roazhon Park, having lost their two previous games here.

Rennes are anxiously hoping for a goal as it's been 231 minutes since the last one in league fixtures. (Scored by M. Terrier).

Rennes faced defeat in their previous match, away at Olympique Marseille (0-1). Heartbreak before that as Rennes lost 0-1 at Olympique Lyonnais's place.

Rennes has scored 16 league goals at home this season, in 14 matches. On the other hand, Rennes have conceded 19 goals.

Strasbourg won their last game, 1-0 versus Monaco played at home. A 1-1 draw at Lille's stadium before that.

The end of the last match, against Monaco, was very satisfying as Frédéric Guilbert scored the winning goal deep into overtime.

Head 2 Head

The dueling parties have met before this season: Strasbourg - Rennes 1-1. Head-to-head totals (for the last ten meetings): Rennes won six games, one match ended with a draw and Strasbourg has three wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: six / four
