Marseille vs Rennes: prediction for the Ligue 1 match
On September 18, Marseille will host Rennes in Matchday 8 of the Ligue 1. Hosts are fighting for a top spot and have a nice winning streak going. Will visitors be able to stop their opponent? The answer is in our prediction.
Command Analysis
Marseille
FranceMarseille are in a fantastic form right now. They are the only team, who won four Ligue 1 games in a row. Even top-placed PSG had one draw. Igor Tudor's men are tied with the Parisians on points, but PSG have a better goal difference.
Unfortunately, Marseille are not so successful in the Champions League. The White-Blues were beaten by Tottenham (0:2) and Eintracht (0:1).
Rennes
FranceRennes are playing in the group stage of another European competition - Europa League. The Red-Blacks got off to a successful start - they beat AEK Larnaca (2:1) and drew to Fenerbahce (2:2).
Bruno Genesio's men dropped points in two of five latest matches - one loss, one draw and three victories. Rennes are currently 6th in the standings, two points below the 5th-placed Lyon.

Tip and bets
We are not expecting a high-scoring game here. Both clubs have a tough schedule, playing two games per week. Opponents are fighting for top positions in the league, so they will probably put all the effort on defense.
Our prediction - total under 2,5 goals
We think that Marseille will take the victory here. Rennes are in a decent form, but hosts will probably be more motivated for the game after disappointing defeats in the Champions League.
Our second bet is on Marseille to win the match
