Recommended bets

Saturday’s Ligue 1 action sees two of the league’s form teams go head to head. Rennes have been good at home recently and have picked up 15 points from their last six Ligue 1 home matches here at the Roazhon Park. Les Olympiens have also been good on their travels recently and have picked up 13 points from their last six Ligue 1 matches on the road. We think home advantage just edges it for Rennes, who have the second-best home record in Ligue 1 behind only Champions PSG. Therefore, 101 Great Goals’ prediction for this match is Stade Rennais FC 2-1 Olympique Marseille and is available at odds of 8.5/1.

Alternatively, you can bet on any Rennes win at 1.95/1 against Les Olympiens at home on Saturday.

Or, back any away win for Marseille at 3.45/1 here at the Roazhon Park.

Match Preview

Les Rennais welcome Olympique Marseille to the Roazhon Park on Saturday for this Ligue 1 match. Three defeats in five have seen Rennes slide out of the Champions League qualifier spot, and the Europa League spot. They are at risk of missing out on European football entirely with Strasbourg just two points behind in the hunt for the UEFA Europa Conference League place. A win for Marseille guarantees they will be in at least a qualifier for Champions League football next season. If they better Nice’s result against Lille, they likely sew up second place too.

Stade Rennais FC come into the match on a run of two home wins in a row and have kept a clean sheet in each. They have picked up nine points from a maximum of 18 from their opening five Ligue 1 matches of the new season.

The Rennais lost their last league match away to FC Nantes. Expected goals of 1.5 to 1.2 in favour of Rennes indicates they were a little unfortunate to get nothing from the match. Taking your chances is everything in this game and Gaetan Laborde missed his inside the six-yard box on the hour mark. Nantes didn’t make the same mistake minutes later to take the win and three points.

Flavien Tait opened the scoring in the match for Rennes. He now has five league goals this season for Rennes and is 9/1 to get on the scoresheet first once again here. The final score of the match was 2-1.

Their opponent on Saturday, Olympique Marseille, come into the match on a run of two away wins in a row and have kept a clean sheet in each. They have picked up 12 points from a maximum of 18 from their last six Ligue 1 matches.

Les Phocéens won their last league match away to FC Lorient. Expected goals of 2.4 to 0.2 in favour of Marseille indicates it was likely a fair result. Former Arsenal man Matteo Guendouzi was amongst the goals here grabbing his team’s crucial second goal. The final score of the match was 0-3.

Stade Rennais FC team news

Jérémy Gélin (cruciate ligament) and Loïc Badé (groin injury) will be unavailable for Les Rennais due to injury on Saturday.

They may look to make a few unforced changes to the side who lost against FC Nantes in their last league match.

Olympique Marseille team news

The win last weekend came at a heavy cost with the treatment room starting to look overcrowded. Cédric Bakambu, Gerson and Bamba Dieng were all withdrawn due to injury last weekend. While the extent of the injuries are not yet known, the trio are unlikely to start here with Aylan Benyahia-Tani the most likely replacement to lead the attack and Luis Henrique deputising for Gerson on the left-wing.

Dimitri Payet (calf problems), Konrad de la Fuente (keyhole surgery), and Leonardo Balerdi (shoulder injury) all remain ruled out due to injury for the trip to the Roazhon Park. They are unlikely to make any further unforced changes to the side that beat FC Lorient in their last league outing.
