Monaco vs Rennes: French Championship Match Betting Tip
The Saturday program of the French Ligue 1 will open with the match Monaco - Rennes. The hosts have not lost to the upcoming opponent for six matches in a row on their home field. Will they be able to extend this series on January 25? You will find the answer to this question and trending bets in our betting tip
Command Analysis
Monaco
FranceCurrent form
Until mid-December, Monaco showed quality football in Ligue 1, but on the 14th, a glitch occurred, and a winless streak began, which continued for four rounds in a row: two draws and two defeats. January also did not start in the best way, because the team did not win the first four matches. Only on January 21 in the Champions League did they manage to beat Aston Villa on their home field (1:0) and earn the first three points in the last month.
The upcoming opponent is currently not in shape, because in 2025 they were unable to take a single point, although they played three matches, so Adi Hütter men have a chance to finally win in Ligue 1 and once again join the fight for getting into the top 3, since the team is currently in fourth place.
Disqualifications and injuries
Balogun and Ilenihena are injured and will not appear on the field.
Interesting trends for betting
- Monaco have scored in their last five home games
- In the last seven matches, the Monegasques have failed to keep a clean sheet
Estimated line-up: Maetsky - Wanderson, Salisu, Kerer, Caio Henrique - Camara, Magassa - Akliush, Minamino, Ben Seghir - Embolo.
Rennes
FranceCurrent form
Jorge Sampaoli has been at the helm of Rennes for more than two months, but the team has not yet made significant progress in terms of play. The club is currently on a losing streak of three games in a row. In defense of the visitors of the upcoming match, it can be said that they play attacking football, because they scored in all those games, but the defense is failing, because they conceded more. The team also flew out of the French Cup, losing to Troyes with a minimal score of 0:1. Considering who they will play this time, it is unlikely that the losing streak will be interrupted.
Disqualifications and injuries
Seydou and Alemdar will not play in the upcoming match due to injuries, and Assignon is disqualified.
Interesting trends for betting
- Rennes have lost their last four matches
- The visitors have conceded in the last five games
Tentative line-up: Samba - Hateboer, Wu, Estigor - Gomez, James, Matusiwa, Truffer - Bla, Fofana - Kalimuendo Muinga.

2.20Tip and bets
Monaco is clearly charged with positive energy thanks to the victory over Aston Villa on their home field. We believe that on this wave, the Monegasques will be able to once again show themselves competently in front of local fans and will win their second victory in a row at home. Moreover, the opponent is clearly far from their best playing form.
Our prediction is a Monaco victory with odds of 1.69
Bet on total
Both teams have been conceding a lot of goals lately. Monaco have failed to keep a clean sheet in four of their last five matches, while the Rennes goalkeeper has been keeping the ball out of his net in five games in a row. All this suggests that both opponents will be able to score. In three of the last five head-to-head encounters, such a bet was successful.
Our prediction is both teams to score with odds of 1.73
Bet on corners
Monaco will try to play first number, because it will be difficult to take three points otherwise. In this case, we are inclined to think that the hosts will make more corner kicks.
Our prediction: Monaco will take more corners at 1.65
