Rennes host LOSC Lille at Roazhon Park on Sunday 8 November, kick-off 2pm UK, in a Ligue 1 game that pairs the division's 2nd-highest scorers with its tightest defence. Rennes have scored 20 in nine league games. Lille have conceded six.
Rennes sit 5th on 16 points, Lille are 2nd on 18, and both sides come into this off midweek European football that finished goalless. We predict 1-1, though we make Rennes the likelier winner at 40%.
Rennes have won five, drawn one and lost three of their nine, scoring 20 and conceding 19. At 2.22 goals a game they are the 2nd most prolific side in the league, and they also have the 2nd most shots on target at 6.44 a game. Over 2.5 goals has landed in 89% of their matches, the highest rate in Ligue 1, and both teams have scored in 67%.
The defensive side is the worry. Rennes have shipped 2.11 a game, the 4th most in the division, and their recent results show it: a 5-2 defeat at Nice on 30 October and a 4-3 loss at Paris before that. In between came a 3-0 win over Strasbourg and a 2-2 draw at Juventus in the Europa League. On Wednesday they were held 0-0 at home by Olympiacos.
Lille are the opposite. They have conceded 0.67 a game, the fewest in Ligue 1, and have kept a clean sheet in 56% of their games, also the highest rate. Only 22% of their matches have gone over 2.5 goals, the lowest figure in the league. They have won five, drawn three and lost one of their nine league games, and are unbeaten in their last three: a 1-0 win against Lens on 30 October, a 1-1 draw at Monaco on 25 October and a 1-1 draw at home to Brest on 17 October. On Tuesday they drew 0-0 away to Bodø / Glimt in the Champions League, after a 4-2 home loss to Galatasaray in their previous Champions League game on 21 October.
Lille are 2nd in the Ligue 1 table while scoring 1.33 a game, the 8th fewest.
