Match Preview
Les Coureurs welcome Stade Rennais FC to the Stade de la Meinau on Wednesday for this Ligue 1 match. Rennes are undefeated in the last five matches in this head to head. Their 1-0 win in Rennes in the reverse fixture back in October leaves them chasing a first league double over the Racers since the 2005/06 season.
RC Strasbourg Alsace come into the match on a run of 10 league games undefeated. They have picked up 10 points from a maximum of 18 from their last six Ligue 1 matches.
The Racers shared the points in their last league match away to ESTAC Troyes. Expected goals of 1.8 to 1.3 in favour of Strasbourg indicates they probably deserved more than a point from the match. It was Habib Diallo's penalty that opened the scoring after half time but it was only enough to secure a point for Strasbourg after giving up a penalty to Rennes five minutes from time. Diallo now has 10 league goals this season for Strasbourg and is 2.875/1 to get on the scoresheet again here. The final score of the match was 1-1.
Their opponent on Wednesday, Stade Rennais FC, come into the match on a run of four away league games undefeated. They have picked up 13 points from a maximum of 18 from their last six Ligue 1 matches.
Les Rennais lost their last league match at home to AS Monaco FC. Expected goals of 3.0 to 2.3 in favour of Monaco indicates perhaps it was a fair result. Having taken a lead through Flavien Tait they will be disappointed at how the match panned out. A Martin Terrier penalty with almost the last kick of the ball probably makes the result appear closer than it actually was. The final score of the match was 2-3.
Terrier’s goal here keeps him in touching distance of Kylian Mbappé to finish as Ligue 1 top scorer. He has 19 goals in Ligue 1 this season, just two behind Mbappe, and is 2.9/1 to score against RC Strasbourg Alsace on Wednesday.
